Though I downvote categories/topics/people time after time after time, I still see stories about those things I have downvoted repeatedly. And when I do downvote, a little popup says thanks for the feedback, we'll show fewer of those stories. NOT TRUE! It would be great if the downvote button actually worked, or better yet, allow us to enter names/words which we don't want to see.

To Secure the Passwordlist Access.

When I compose a new email with Thunderbird, I can "Customize From Address". That's fine. When I compose a reply, it would be appropriate to automatically customize the from address, to the address the mail I am replying to was sent.
Example: I ordered something at webshop.com and put an email address in my profile there: "webshopper@mydomain.com". That way, when webshop.com (or their associates) send me an email, they send it to "webshopper@mydomain.com" . When I reply to that mail, I am replying as "myrealname@mydomain.com". I now have to manually customize the from address to be "webshopper@mydomain.com". That should be the default behavior. Thanks.

Problem: when switching between accounts from within the side menu, each time the menu closes automatically, instead of being kept open and displaying the account folders. Behavior results in user having to reopen the side menu manually again after each switch, just to go to a specific folder. Suggestion: switching between accounts should simply result in showing the folders of the switched to account, and the menu should kept open. #Thunderbird PS: mozilla ideas is missing a category for k-9 mail

For some reason, OAuth 2.0 authentication for the POP3 protocol is not implemented in the mobile version on Android. Please implement it, as it is impossible to work with modern mail servers without it.

In my dynamics of organizing my favorite addresses I depend a lot on the date they were created, but when I need to import from other browsers or use the synchronization feature in case I start using a new device, this date remains with the date the import or synchronization occurred and not with the correct date of creation, what I suggest is that this creation date is preserved when importing from other browsers or during synchronization.

New vertical tabs are great, would be cool to separate pinned tabs from normal tabs to be able to use the space more effectively. I usually pin tabs I need to go later or have them pinned for everyday usage and it takes almost the whole horizontal space, it got better with vertical tabs where I can scroll the pinned tabs. If we had the option to use horizontal and vertical tabs together, this would be the best fit. Everyone could set where which type of tabs they would want.
I would have pinned tabs vertical and normal tabs horizontal.

In the new Thunderbird android beta "unified inbox" was changed to "unified account" and requires 1 more click than before (you have to switch account and click unified account). It would be great to include a toggle of whether you want this behaviour or not, as "unified account" requires more clicks. (From a user perspective it's frustrating when things require more clicks than before)

I'm using AI Chatbot sidepanel quite a lot. Unfortunately the resize hotbox to the right is literally 1 pixel thin (I could swear it's 1 px and not even 2px), it's really, really hard to trigger it. I already have massive carpel tunnel syndrome issues. Can you please increase the hitbox/padding so it's at least 3-5px wide?

I need that when I finish working on my PC in a set of tabs and close the browser, it is saved. And when I then open my browser on a smartphone it opens the same tabs that I closed on my PC, and vice versa. Likewise on tablets.

I noticed that Firefox asks to auto-fill only one password/account data per domain.
But there are multiple websites that have different accounts for subdomains as well.
So it would be convenient to have a password save for seperate subdomains.

Be able to create nested tags in Thunderbird. I use Gmail at work, and I love the tag system. Now, I'm going to use Thunderbird for my personal systems, and I wanted to setup all the tags, only to discover that I cannot nest the tags. Example use case: I get a lot of emails from certain companies for two specific subjects. I want to move all those emails to a sub-tag under the tag for that company to keep it organised and easily identifiable which emails are sent for other subjects.

There should be an option to copy the alt text for an image - presumably on the right-click menu for the image.

Users with a dark theme get a 'white flash' when starting Firefox. Obviously the initial default theme before the dark theme takes effect. Can the default start screen be dark (and change to light if necessary)?

Estaría bien poder cambiar el nombre de las páginas fijadas, pues en ocasiones se vuelve un poco dificil identificarlas si todas tienen el mismo logo o similar URL. Sería una función muy útil, gracias!

This was a draft I neglected to post over a year ago. Unfortunately, it's still relevant as I just learned due to performing a TB install on a new machine. I didn't really know where to put this, but as an early adopter of Thunderbird (oh so many years ago), I see new versions come out that end up disabling seemingly very popular add-ons time and time again. 1. At the very least, could we get a warning (updating to version xx.x will disable the following add-ons) so we don't find out about it AFTER we update and have a choice? 2. Maybe ensure the most popular add-ons are added to newer versions, or at least offer the add-on developers an option to get ahead of the curve. I don't consider myself a super-user, but it seems nearly EVERY major update in decades has broken something I use daily. I know I can't be the only one. Sure, the add-on developer gets it fixed, or the feature is integrated into the program eventually, but that seems counterintuitive. Respectfully submitted (after sitting forgotten as a draft over a year ago)

Currently, in the final step of a Firefox update, the last dialog box says, "Restart to update Firefox." The phrasing makes it confusing... People think, "I don't want to restart Windows. It takes too long. I'll do this later." INSTEAD, the message should say, "Restart Firefox to update." That way, no one will think a Windows restart is necessary. (Same goes for Thunderbird, which should say, "Restart Thunderbird to update.") Remember, it's the little things that define greatness. This suggestion comes from someone who has done a fair amount of programming in the old days, and spent decades as a professional copywriter in advertising. Be precise in your program messaging. And thanks for your great programs!

Synchronizing favicons is a good thing. Chromium-based browsers have supported favicon synchronization for a long time. This is a fairly simple thing, but its presence affects the overall impression of the synchronization as a whole. The fact that Firefox still cannot synchronize favicons gives the impression that synchronization in Firefox is not fully developed, or was written before 1999, when favicons did not yet exist.

I propose integrating a built-in AI-powered Fact-Check Assistant into social media and search platforms. Users would be able to type or highlight a statement (e.g., “Does cooking in a pressure cooker destroy nutrients?”), and the assistant would then analyze peer-reviewed journals, official health organizations, and reputable academic databases to generate a concise, evidence-based summary. The system must exclude low-quality sources, casual blogs, or unverified content. Instead, it will deliver answers that meet the highest standards of scientific credibility.
Key features include:
A clear classification of the claim (True / False / Inconclusive) in crisp
A breakdown of key facts and evidence-based points related to the query
Visual aids such as mini graphs, plots, or animations showing the proportion of studies supporting vs. rejecting the claim
Direct links to all cited sources for full transparency and user verification
This tool would significantly improve digital literacy by reducing the spread of misinformation and empowering users with reliable, real-time scientific insights.
