It's a little strange to me that when I add a new account in Thunderbird, it immediately starts downloading all the emails in it, as highlighted in this thread. I'm a completely new user and this caught me off guard as I had not expected it. Not only was space used up but several folders started appearing with hundreds of 'unread' messages which I had simply archived away. Going into the synchronization/storage settings is too late, the 'clutter' has already been introduced in all folders. This is not a great onboarding/first-time-user-experience. Idea is: Don't start downloading emails immediately or at least give some sane defaults that limit the number of downloaded messages. Limit the downloaded messages to inbox only ... View more

I have projects with several correspondents. I can automatically copy incoming e-mail to the project folders but I have to manually run a filter to copy my outgoing e-mail to the same folder. It's helpful to keep related e-mails in one place. ... View more

Currently, when I'm in airplane mode or disconnected, the app doesn't tell me that the server can't be reached. Even when manually refreshing/fetching. Which I find very misleading and unfortunately makes the app seem less reliable to me. My current workaround is to do a random server search and get the following warning: "A network connection is required for the server search". Now that the error message can be displayed during a server search, I'd like to suggest that it also be displayed when manually fetching new emails. Thank you for all your great work! ... View more

Currently, when you delete an email, a dialogue pops up to confirm your action, which seems less efficient to me. Instead, I'd suggest an undo button at the bottom for a few seconds. I'd also include an undo function when sending an email. ... View more

In Thunderbird Mobile email attachments, if any, are displayed at the bottom. Now, if an email conversation goes on forever, it can take ages to scroll down to find the attachment, and therefore you run the risk of missing it. Thank you for all the great work! ... View more

Currently in Thunderbird Mobile when replying to an email it is a reply by default, while reply-all is hidden behind the three dots ". . ." Most of the time, in my experience, I have to reply-all, as the cc's are just as important to include. The extra step of clicking the ". . ." can be overlooked in the rush, leading to a communication conundrum. Let me know what you think and thanks a lot for your great work! ... View more

Coming from GMail I have Swipe Left set up to delete the selected message. When I do so there's a confirmation message "1 message deleted" with an Undo button. I have fat fingers and used it often. It would be really useful to easily to get back a message I inadvertantly or mistakenly deleted. While it can be done now, it's a multi-step process. ... View more

When i close my Firefox i can choose to dele all cookies. But then i'll also remove often used cookies from my bank, ensurance, facebook etc. I would be nice to have the ability to give certain cookies the stamp 'Protected' and then i can delete all my cookies without worries about loosing the important ones - since they are protected by my own selection. It would also be nice to watch the list of cookies so they appear in the list in groups. Ie., if i visit by bank, then the site typical create 3-4 cookies more then the site itself create. It would be nice to see them in groups where i then can select to protect the cookie from the bank, and at the same time block forign cookies from advertising sites. Anders Lindegaard, Denmark ...

I note there is a suggestion to port hMailServer to Linux for use with Thunderbird. hMailServer is an open source email server application which runs on Windows.  It is an easy to use email Server application which supports POP3, IMAP, and SMTP.  Many other email servers separate these email protocols into 3 separate servers but hMailServer encorporates all three protocols into one Email Server application.  This is a great feature in that only one server application needs to be set up instead of three separate email servers.  It makes setup easier in this respect.  It currently runs on all versions of Windows from Windows 7 through Windows 11.  It is a very problem free email server with an Admin Utility which also runs on Windows which uses a Windows GUI to administer the settings of hMailServer.  There also is a web admin utility as well. When one searches for email servers to run on their Windows PC, hMailServer has been one of the first in the search results.  It practically runs without on its default settings except for necessary additions such as Domains, Accounts, etc. The problem is that hMailServer is no longer an actively maintained application.  The developer could no longer afford the time to maintain it.  There are a few enthusiasts who have made their own forks but this doesn't seem to work well for those who want a Windows based email server to run locally on their private PCs.  hMailServer needs an organization like Mozilla to continue maintenance of hMailServer such as updating it to any new levels of TLS encryption, etc. With hMailServer being an open source application, Mozilla should be able to make its own Fork of hMailServer.  If Mozilla wanted to improve on hMailServer's features, it would able to do so but it would not be necessary in my opinion.  I have been using hMailserver as my private email server for well over 10 years without any issues and I have been using the Beta version 5.6.9-B2607 for some time.  I believe this is a testament to how well the Beta versions work. hMailServer could stand to be updated from a 32bit email server to a 64bit email server version.  The enthusiasts have made their own 64bit versions but being their own Forks they are not available on the hMailServer. I would like to suggest that Mozilla make its own version of hMailServer even if only to clone the version currently available on the https://www.hmailserver.com website.  Many people would want hMailServer to continue being available as it appears to be a well liked application which even businesses have used.  Thunderbird email client is able to connect to hMailServer as a client application but most email clients are able to also connect to hMailServer as an email client application.  By Mozilla making hMailServer one of its available supported applications, Mozilla would be making a well known email server application continue to be available to those of us and others who use and want to use a very good Windows based email Server.  It is a very robust email server in its native application but also allows for use of scripting. I am afraid if an organization such as Mozilla doesn't offer a version of hMailServer available to the public that hMailServer will basically eventually die due to lack of maintenance.  To me I believe Mozilla would be a place that hMailServer could continue to live on and be useful for those who want a private email server to run locally on their own computers such as I am doing. ...

If you have several email accounts they are shown in a coloured "icon" with 2 letters which seem to be taken from the mail server name. For example if the server name is gmail.com the icon is shown as "GM". If you have 2 Gmail accounts they are both shown as "GM". The only customisation that you can do is to change the colour of the "icon". It would be nice to either select the two letters displayed or use an account image. Note that the 3 accounts "GM" are all gmail.com accounts but the only display difference I can set is the colour.  ... View more

It would be nice to have all the accounts listed in a slim vertical panel on the left hand side when viewing on a tablet in landscape orientation. This would allow quick selection of the account to view. It would be necessary to indicate if that account has unread messages. An example of such use is Samsung Mail. The panel can then be swiped to enlarge it to show the folders for that account.   ... View more

Firefox Mobile (for Android), especially on Tablets, desperately needs the Desktop view Setting as an Toggle default option, with the choice of enabling it or disabling for the current website. Reason for that is, that during the usage on Samsung DeX (I'd like to imagine that this is a rather neglected part of usage for many developers), the app is basically displayed as a mobile site like it was if it were to be in pop view, which is alright on mobile devices, but on Tablets, it's a necessity to set them straight as Desktop Windows. Samsung own Browser has the ability to default into Desktop View, the only drawback is that the pinch zoom can't be disabled. It's possible, and I do believe it shouldn't take long for implementation. (In the Screenshot provided it detects if it's in DeX mode or not, which isn't what I mean. A simple toggle would basically be this feature) ... View more

Sorry if this sounds a bit plain, but there really isn’t much more to it. I’m not sure how resource-intensive a TOTP generator is or whether it’s feasible for Mozilla to add such a feature, but in my opinion, the only thing missing from Firefox’s password manager is a TOTP function. If it had that, it would be almost as good as a standalone password manager app. ... View more

I think that integrated shortcuts (preferrably in the toolbar) would be quite useful and beneficial to the user experience. Currently, as far as I know there is no native integration of shortcuts in the browser. I would like to suggest implementing allowing the user to set shortcuts in the toolbar potentially as part of the toolbar customisation allowing faster and more natural access to frequently visited sites. ...
