Hello, My suggestion is for this scenario: You select a mail (sent or received), then on the contextual menu you select "Write to recipients" obtaining a new empty mail with all the recipients of the original mail (to, cc, ccn) already written. Thanks in advance ... View more

Hi everybody, My idea is on future versions of Thunderbird. If someone wants to customize the selected folders in the properties of an existing virtual folder, I think the option "Select all folders" would be very helpful. Every time I tediously search for those folders among the many existing folders that were not selected yet. What do you think? Regards, Stefan ... View more

In the Thunderbird toolbar there is an option "Move to folder" (maybe it is called something else, but I don't have the English version of the app). Moving to recently used folders is tedious and requires more user attention when using the mouse. It would be nice if a few folders were listed in the main section directly under the submenu (see picture). This would save the user from clicking and unnecessary zig-zag mouse movements. ...

Hi, On Linux, the UX for retrieving attachments has been degrading as PDFs became more handled directly in Thunderbird. An easy step to ease the transition from Thunderbird to our OS's apps would be to add a pop-up notification to open the file. Example in Mattermost chat (you can't see the "open" tooltip on hover): What's more, there is only one way to save a PDF that is displayed as a Thunderbird tab, through a click on the top-right save button: Ctrl+S does not work. No "Save..." action in the right-click menu. This is a hastle for power usage! Anyway thanks for a great software. Cheers! ... View more

A clipboard manager embedded in TB would be useful. A sort of customizable service allowing users to pre-write text blocks and paste them directly in my emails, via shortcuts/hotkeys. on WIN I use Ditto, which works perfectly, but unfortuynately it does not run on other platforms. on Linux I use(d) "Clipping for TB" extension, but it stopped working after TB updates, and had a few issues with shortcuts possibility (only a limited range of shortcuts available after activation) ClipX and other similar alternatives do not manage shortcuts and hotkeys so well Something allowing email composing from an extended clipboards, to speed up using preformatted text blocks, possibly syncable once the Sync service is in place, would be great. ...

Thunderbird used to have an option to ask me before I send it in what format I want to send my message.  Now, I have to remember to go into a multi-level menu to switch to or from text-only or text-and-html.  Please bring back this UI option! ... View more

When viewing local folders it would be helpful to right click a folder and see a list of all mail filters that send mail to that folder. Then be able to edit and delete them as normal. My use case is where I have multiple filters sending mail into a folder and I wish to redirect one or more of them somewhere else. ... View more

Current state: If one adds a filter (eg: to delete a certain person's posts from appearing in Tbird usenet display), one currently has to "run" it on each usenet group to affect those posts. Desired state: Have a button that runs the filter on all usenet groups that the user is subscribed to.       ... View more

I'd appreciate the possibility to order tags in the tag list, and to assign each of them the defined shortcut number I want. This would allow tagging single emails excaping filter rules. ... View more

We all get tons of Junk mail. Some is malicious and needs to be identified as SPAM. Clicking on Unsubscribe might trigger an adverse event. Other Junk mail is benign and I might actually want to read it later if I get the time. Please create a "right-click" function that allows me to designate between SPAM and Junk. Thank you  ...

After opening an email in a new Tab, and then archiving or deleting the email, the tab remains open (as long as the (filtered) Inbox still contains more emails) and shows the next email. I would like some kind of toggle switch, or key combination, that changes this behavior to instead close the tab. (Similar to the pin in the Inbox quick filter, which toggles whether the filter settings get reset when opening a different inbox) ... View more

So way back almost 3yrs ago I made the simple suggestion:      - If Bob sends Sally ( and 3 other people ) an email saying hi, how about Thursday for a meeting?      - Sally should be able to right click on email ---> "Convert To" ---> "Event" ---> "All Participants" or      - Sally should be able to right click on email ---> "Convert To" ---> "Event" ---> "Sender" and then      - ALL 5 email addresses of the people Bob sent to the original email to Sally about are automatically added to an event that Sally wants to create with the same email subject as the email that Bob sent. Quick, quick, SUPER simple.  AND it existed in the past. Please bring this back! In the original post that I made almost 3yrs ago: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1295910 one of the thunderbird/lightening experts said, sure, it was there and then removed. Why? Who knows. But for sure 3yrs ago and certainly today EVERY email package out there does this. Else as it is today, the amount of time it takes to add 5 people for meetings ( going back and forth between the original email and the event that needs to be created ) when a SUPER simple right click add everyone or right click and add one person for a meeting takes up to ( at least ) 5 mins per each meeting to be created. Have to do 10 of these a day and that's almost TWENTY FOUR wasted days ( in hours to do this ) of our lives adding people for meetings every year and as detailed here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1409007 so it was suggested that I make the request for this very simple feature to be added back in again. Thunderbird/Lightening developers and product managers, please for the sake of saving the average user TWENTY FOUR DAYS of their lives a year making meetings using Thunderbird/Lightening, please, please add this, so very simple piece of functionality, back in to the next version of Thunderbird/Lightening. Trust me, everyone will just love getting all those hours back in their lives 😉     ... View more

As Thunderbird icons have kept shrinking and become more cryptic (not to say "badly designed"), the offline icon has turned into what must be a one-pixel-wide red line across some nearly invisible (in dark mode) approximation of "antenna waves" or something. What's worse is that for ages, this icon has been stuck at the bottom left, where we never look for anything else, and it's all too easy to have put TB offline then hours later wondering why it doesn't connect, without any visual feedback on the main dashboard area, which is at the TOP of the screen. Please make a pair of better icons, movable via the context menu "customize", allowing us to place that important indicator anywhere on toolbars (mine are all on the menu bar), like any other TB icon. Thanks in advance. ... View more
