Currently in Thunderbird, if you type the word "attached" or "attachment", without having anything attached, you get a warning, because you've probably forgotten to actually attach it. This warning does not appear for the word "attachments". As in "see the attachments". I think the word "attachments" should be added. ... View more

Right now if one selects F11 (full screen mode) only the tab bar and the address bar are shown when one moves the pointer to top of the screen, the favorites bar (even if ALWAYS SHOW is selected for that option) is omitted for some strange reason. Also full screen mode blocks the windows task bar from showing as well, while in pop up mode. The reason people like me want these features is because we use small and light portable laptops and want to maximize the screen space. We should not have features disappear because of it, otherwise what is the point? If full screen mode for some reason can't be set up to accomplish these tasks let us have a option to customize our web browser to be able to SEAMLESSLY modify our browser to use limited screen space to the max while quickly allowing access when we need it via pointer. ...

I have made many donations to Thunderbird over the years. I am very unhappy that you have no method of keeping track of my identity as a donor so that you will not nag me to donate after I have already made a donation. I would be happy to subscribe for a reasonable annual fee if that would purchase freedom from interruption by ads about how Thunderbird needs donations. Martin X. Moleski, SJ ... View more

Inspired by https://github.com/classvsoftware/under-new-management it seems like the browser itself ought to watch out for extensions changing ownership, and give users the option to decide whether they want to keep using it. This appears to be a very active form of abuse right now, where extension authors are inundated with buyout offers from sleazy people/companies who will add in tracking or whatever. Perhaps this could take the form of automatically revoking all permissions on an ownership change, and re-requesting? ... View more

Hello, I would love to see a possibility to hide the FOLDER ICON from the BOOKMARKS. I have around 80 FOLDERS in 4 ROWS in my BOOKMARKS, and it takes a lot of space. If I have a possibility to remove the FOLDER ICON, that would be awesome. This way I could save a lot of space. I do no need FOLDER ICON because the name of the folder is enough to know that this is the folder. I do not feel that the folder is always needed, for now with 80 folders the FOLDER ICON is rather a problem. Thank you! ... View more

I love my PC Thunderbird. Filtering saves me so much time and when a new vendor reaches me, I just create a new rule. It is so simple and effective. But I have not seen the Thunderbird for Android. I have tried K-9 mail and a couple others, but no filtering option exists and spam does not allow you to unenroll, they just give your address to 10 more people and your life gets worse. So filtering allows you to redirect it out of your face. So email on my Android is still not useable because all the spam fills up my phone and chokes it. When will we be getting the Android version? Or is one out and I just don't know what it is called? ... View more

I would very much like to see a Print option in K-9 Mail/Thunderbird for Android, much like you get in the Outlook for mobile app. When clicked on, it will use the print dialog built into your phone so that you can send it to the printer or save the message as A PDF document. The Spark client has a Print and Save to PDF option. ... View more

I really like Reader View, but it seems to hide most bylines, the author and published date.  I don't understand why, but it would be great if it didn't do that. ... View more

I have noticed that when there is an email string, ie some back forth conversation between the sender and receiver, the order in which they are displayed is from oldest to newest. So far I have been unable to find a way to display the string from newest (ie most recent) to oldest.  Futhermore, this morning I was looking for a reply to an email I sent last night. At first glance there did not seem to be a reply so I opened up the email string and found the reply at the bottom of the list. Quite annoying. Is it possible to change that?  As a new user I like Thunderbird for the most part even though there are a couple of annoying aspects. Patrick ... View more

I prefer to not send a name with my emails but only the email address itself. This is possible with Thunderbird Android by editing Account settings -> Sending mail -> Composition defaults and removing "Your name", which was set during the initial setup. This workaround works fine, but I think the field could just be made non-mandatory during account setup. This would also comply with a display name being optional according to RFC 5322. ...

Just like edge, which opens a pdf right where I left it off the last time, this feature should be implemented in firefox. There should also be an option in settings to turn this feature off. ... View more

It would be helpful if URLs containing Unicode characters (or specially marked Unicode characters) were highlighted with a red outline. This visual cue could alert users that the website might be suspicious. Additionally, hovering over the outlined characters could display more information about potential spoofing attempts, such as IDN homograph attacks, to educate users about the risks. Yes, my UI design skills are amazing 🙂 ... View more

IMAP is awesome, but has some rough edges around things like IDLE being only able to monitor one folder per connection.  This means users may get an inconsistent experience depending on the number of folders they have, with emails arriving in some showing up immediately, while others have to wait until the regular "check for new messages" check.  JMAP (for example) removes these problems, and for mobile applications, provide a better experience. https://jmap.io/spec.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON_Meta_Application_Protocol ...

When modifying the toolbar in Firefox you are not allowed to get rid of the forward and back buttons. When you drag them out, they jump back. This seems like quite an arbitrary decision, since you are allowed to remove and shuffle around most other elements of that toolbar. I only use the forward and backward keys on my mouse, so the back/forward buttons on the toolbar serve no purpose. The only thing they do is that I occasionally accidentally click on them when I'm in a hurry and trying to click a (pinned) tab, to great annoyance. I wanted to solve that problem by removing them altogether and found out that you are not allowed to. ... View more

Currently, as per the CSS @font-face specification, Firefox does not support platform substitution for fonts specified using local() in the src property. The spec states that "Platform substitutions for a given font name must not be used," which is generally in line with font rendering consistency across platforms. However, in some use cases, especially when controlling font rendering via fontconfig (on Linux platforms), it's necessary to allow platform-specific font substitutions for more precise control over which fonts are used. This is especially important in environments where custom fonts are preferred or where system fonts must be substituted due to specific user preferences or system configurations. Feature Request: It would be incredibly useful if Firefox could provide an option (likely in the settings or via about:config) to enable platform-based font substitution when using the local() function in @font-face. This would allow users to take advantage of fontconfig (or similar platform-specific font management systems) to replace the font with an appropriate system font based on configuration, without requiring changes to the web font itself. ...
