My wish is that the addresses which are contained in my address books were synchronized over the different platforms on which I use Thunderbird. I would greatly apprechiate if this impropvement could be realized. Thanks a lot and good luck for your work! Christoph

Hi, I was thinking it would be handy if, after searching for something in a search engine, I could open a link directly in reading mode without having to open the page and then click on reading mode. It seems trivial, but it would avoid loading ads and slow down browsing while also increasing productivity.

When using tab grouping in Firefox, all groups stay open at once. This leads to clutter and unnecessary memory use when switching between different contexts. It would be very useful to have a native option that automatically closes or suspends tabs in other groups when a new tab group is opened. Example use case: I have several tab groups for different projects — “Work,” “Research,” and “Personal.” When I open the “Work” group, I want Firefox to automatically collapse the other groups. This keeps my workspace clean and focused. Benefits: Keeps the tab bar clean and organized Saves memory and CPU resources Helps focus by reducing distractions from other projects

Hi,
as the title says, i would like to have two passwords for my browser. One shorter easier one for accessing the browser and using the saved passwords (without the ability to see them) and one long, complex password for accessing the password safe.
Thanks and have a good one.

When Firefox prompt for fill in password dialog, please provide the URL or URL Name in the dialog so user know which site it is before proceeding. This is for case with multiple tabs/windows with tabs and get confuse which site it is requesting.

Hi Guys, it is good to have AES256 in place, but in normal usage, we are lazy and just prefer a PIN or sth else to enter each time. I suggest to have a strong recovery password which can be entered for restoring backups, and otherwise firefox should use windows internal/tpm/FIDO2 U2F etc as alternative. Firefox should be configureable to: a) set a strong passphrase for recover b) use legacy mode with simple pin (as additional layer for local users) c) make firefox know its on its machine and noone has stolen its data by trojan horse, so copytheft cant encrypt the data with simple 1234-pin number. hope you got me.. we need internal secure enclaves to unlock automatically. reason is to protect against stealing password manager data using trojan horses! this is the biggest risk we need to mitigate!

As I understand it, some AI image generators embed watermarks to show that the image was generated by AI. With the amount of AI being generated and with many social media platforms not moderating their content, isn't it time that the browsers start implementing tests for these watermarks and overlaying a symbol or watermark over the image or in some other way show that it was generated, in order to protect viewers from false information and propaganda.

I think it would be useful to be able to include full domains in the exceptions list, such as: *@aaaa.com

Currently, the page preview thumbnails in the sidebar of the built-in PDF viewer are fixed in size. For users working with documents where visual identification of pages is important, such as presentations or visually rich reports, the small size of the thumbnails can make it difficult to quickly find a specific page.
This proposal is to add the ability for users to increase the size of these page preview thumbnails.

Give the option to further customize toolbar by adding a color coding option for the different icons.

It would be really nice to have an option to toggle an exception for history deletion of bookmarks. It's really helpful to see the last visit and times a bookmark has been visited.
With a maximum for history entries it can happen that the history item for a bookmark is deleted automatically. The same happens with the option delete history when closing the browser.
It would be preferable to have an option to make an exception for bookmarks in the case of deletion while closing the browser.
For the automatic deletion of the history due to storage limits it should be the default behavior to keep history items for bookmarks and prefer deletion of items without a bookmark.

Currently, enabling and disabling Website Dark Mode on Firefox iOS requires tapping “…” > Settings > Appearance > Switching Website Dark Mode on/off
This could be reduced to fewer steps by placing a quicker access for turning Website Dark Mode on/off right in the “…” menu drawer.

I am using the android client and have synced all mails to Phone.
When I search in the inbox it only searches in this folder unless I choose search all. It would be great in settings to choose always to search all by default.

It is great that I can click reply and delete in notifications. But it really needs 'archive' to transfer mails to chosen archive folder.

Hi, I am currently in a transition phase from Windows- to Linux-clients (both running Thunderbird) and have a proposal to ease the compatibility between the new (linux) clients and some server databases (Windows). In my case the latter are used to store emails and do not support all (the characters in) the linux filenames, i.e., they do not support certain special characters like ":", which occurr in roughly every second email.
It seems that there is already a "switch" for that (found here: https://www.reddit.com) within "utilityOverlay.js" [https://searchfox.org/] and in case of a Windows client, the special characters that cause trouble for windows are substituted.
snippet from utilityOverlay.js
Would it be possible to make this option accessible within linux, too, e.g. via an entry in the settings table - and thus permanent?

A recent update for Firefox on iOS switched the position of the buttons on the bottom “navigation” bar, which has been difficult to adapt to, and since I’m used to the prior positions I keep tapping the wrong button (ie. Settings menu instead of tab menu). I think it’d be great to be able to rearrange or edit what buttons are shown on the bar so users can customize things to work for them.

My corporate email account uses POP3 with OTP (One-Time Password) authentication. Since the password changes every time, I have configured my Thunderbird account to not save the password. To prevent automatic login attempts, I have also disabled the following settings: "Check for new messages at startup" "Check for new messages every [X] minutes" Problem: However, when I manually click the "Get Messages" button, Thunderbird often attempts to log into the server before it prompts me for the new password. It uses a previous or cached password (or an empty one), which fails. This results in multiple error dialogs stating: "Login to server [server name] for user [username] failed," appearing before I ever have a chance to enter the current OTP. Expected Behavior: When all automatic checks are disabled and the password is not saved, Thunderbird should never attempt to log in automatically. A manual "Get Messages" action should immediately present the password prompt without first trying and failing with old credentials. This issue interrupts the workflow and requires closing multiple error dialogs before I can actually retrieve my email.
