Don't like the look of the new Thunderbird. Just too much of everything. It's just for sending and receiving emails. Now it is messing up, which it never did before after 10 or more years. Emails that I have moved to folders keep coming back to my inbox when I reopen the program. So before I get told that the settings in my pop account are wrong and I need to change this or that, like I've seen other people told. NO.....! It worked fine until some meat head wrote new code for this new 115.whatever version, and thought that a new fancy task bar was more important then getting mail. And this goof ball needs to fix it................Thank You Very Much, Craig P.S. Yes I give $ to Mozilla.

If you are refusing to work with folk here, then there is exactly nothing to be achieved interacting further as this is a peer user support forum. It is not working and the software is installed on your computer. So the only way it might come to work is if you change something.

You are most assuredly not interacting with your chosen "meat head" or "goof ball" you are tossing out rather nasty comments in a forum of your fellow users. There is a feedback link on the help menu of Thunderbird if you wish to offer the developer team feedback, but they have themselves pretty well insulated. Language such as you have used here will simply get your account suspended. It probably should here as well, but honestly I am pretty slack at imposing the Mozilla guidelines for use of this site.

BTW Thunderbird is not a Mozilla product, despite many folk thinking it is and them hosting this support web site. You will note it is not listed on their products page https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/products/

Further information about who makes Thunderbird can be found here https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/about/
