Bug: Thunderbird No application window Mac 10.15.5
Status: RESOLVED
Priority: --
Resolution: DUPLICATE
Created: 2020-08-01 15:40:08+00:00
Resolved: 2020-08-01 22:56:31+00:00

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/84.0.4147.105 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

V 79.0b3. Tried force quit, reboot, launched again and still no window. Launched from terminal same results. Appended -ProfileManager and that loaded. Created test profile but main app still would not start. Attempted to launch in safe mode but still no window.
Downgraded to Version 78.1.0 which launched but found incompatible profile which forced me to create a new one. Instead I'm applying the latest Mac OS update to see if this resolves it.


Actual results:

Spinning beachball and menus listed but all unresponsive.


Expected results:

Thunderbird launches. It would also be terrific if profiles remained compatible between versions to give me a fall-back.

Expected results:

In the older release I am running on a win 7 32 bit machine, the user name stays with the identity being editted

Steps to reproduce:

 I upgraded to Thunderbird 68.11.0 - 20200721201500
My wife is Ukrainian she speaks Russian and very little English.
Right now she is caught in Ukraine because of Covd-19

In the previous versions of Thunderbird I could send and receive Russian text.
with the upgrade can see the Russian text in my outgoing email.
my wife receives question marks(?) for each Cyrillic characters in my email.
how do I activate the transmission of the Cyrillic characters set and the English characters in the same transmitted or received messages.
I down loaded the Russian dictionary -  font set.
This function worked perfectly in the previous version of Thunderbird.
Now I get the display in the PNG.
I know it is not my mail supplier, as I receive the Cyrillic characters (Russian) on my Android tablet.
I have sent the same message between mail.com, yahoo.ca and gmail.com in various combinations.
No matter which combination of forwarding I did not loose the English and Cyrillic characters



Actual results:

Worked a few times now displays as in the attached Page 1 of the attached PDF.


Expected results:

To be able to send and receive English and Russian text in the same email.
not gobligoop as in the page 1 of PDF.

Steps to reproduce:

Previous to the new thunderbird 78 I was able to open all three profiles I have. somehow my thunderbird was updated/upgraded to 78.  version 78 wouldn't open my other profiles. So I installed 68.9 again but it said that a newer version has made my profiles incompatable. So I uninstalled 68.9 and reinstalled 78.1 but it still comes up with the same error. I also cannot import local folders so I don't have access to old emails either.


Actual results:

Error message of unable to open profile


Expected results:

Maybe it's just a popup format ; Maybe there is also a security problem.
Maybe keep the bug hidden for the moment
Bug: When going through messages: Message header buttons keep changing their location (annoying and error prone)
Status: RESOLVED

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:78.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/78.0

Steps to reproduce:

Just reading my INBOX and sorting my incoming mail, archiving mails by pressing the "Archive" button for some of them. 


Actual results:

Thunderbird keeps reorganizing it's mail header view (the part of the window, where the selected message is displayed, the light blue part with From/Subject/To, and the date and the action buttons on the right side. 

with every single mail these buttons move up and down, left and right. 

Up and down, because thunderbird sometimes shows warnings and hints like a message beeing suspect of scam or things like „This message contains a reply referring to an event that is not in your calendar.”, opening a strip on top of the message header window, thus moving the header part and the buttons up and down. 

Furthermore, it adds and removes buttons, depending on what you're showing (grouped/tree view), making buttons like the archive button move left and right.


Expected results:

This is highly annoying, error prone and slowing the user down, because for every single mail you need to look for the button and move the mouse pointer to it's new location. 
It's furthermore error prone if you believe to archive something, when the delete-button has move to the position where the archive button had been a second ago and is now under the mouse pointer. 


This is terrible, really poor UI design. 

Thunderbird had a great user interface at around 2008, then someone redesigned it and just made everything worse with no benefit at all. Just make things ugly, worse, more screen space consuming. 

E.g. the old UI allowed to select multiple mails and then click „Junk” for them all. The new one doesn't even show the Junk-Button when multiple mails are selected, thus forcing the user to waste his/her time to mark every single spam mail separately. 

Never ever move buttons, especially not destructive ones like „delete” on the screen around, forcing the user to search for them with every single mail. 

Under all cirumstances, leave buttons exactly where they are, under reliable positions. 

If you really need to display buttons only sometimes, put them to the left, to allow permanent buttons to stay where they are. 

If you want do display messages, move the display to the bottom of the header strip, allowing the header to stay where it is. 

The user interface is just horrible, counterintuitive, annoying, and especially error prone, and no one has fixed it within a decade. 

Nobody seems to care about user friendly user interfaces.

Steps to reproduce:

Windows OS
Thunderbird version 78.1.0 
Tools > Activity Manager

Leave Activity Manager window open.


Actual results:

Within a session, the log maintains:
Moved x messages from
Deleted x messages from

When a mail is auto checked for messages a log is created regardless of whether there were emails to download or not.
However, if check for emails 10 minutes later, the previous check data is auto erased, so there is no means of seeing a log to check connection check times.



Expected results:

I would expect all activity to remain in the Activity Manager for that session.
I would not expect a new check for messages to overwrite the previous.
Bug: Thunderbird v78+ causes data & settings loss on downgrade to v68 and earlier
Status: RESOLVED
Priority: --
Resolution: INVALID
Created: 2020-08-03 14:43:15+00:00
Resolved: 2020-11-16 02:58:19+00:00

Despite Thunderbird's weird choice of creating a different profile for every version, many, and probably most people, use the same profile with all versions.

Also, a significant fraction of users - and most developers - have to downgrade their version for one of a variety of reasons. A typical scenario is noticing that an extension is not compatible with the new version.

Now, beginning with Thunderbird 78 (and perhaps earlier), there's an error message when you try to access your profile, and you have to use a command-line option to bypass it. This is the first problem.

The more serious problem is that some of the profile data is either reset, deleted, or hidden after downgrade. So far, downgrading from TB 78.1 to TB 68.8, I've noticed:

* Folder collapsed state is reset
* Address book is emptied! (luckily, abook.mab.bak is still there)

This is unacceptable IMHO - both in terms of reduced usability and manageability, and more importantly - data loss! Now, maybe the data exists in a way you can access it with TB 78, so it's not _complete_ data loss - but it's _effective_ loss.

Therefore - those TB versions which make changes to profile data must do it so as not to hamper the access to this data by previous versions. Some of the damage is already done, but I ask that a new version be issued ASAP addressing this issue.

I have Thunderbird instances versions are 19, 38, 48 with amount of accounts over 200.
I installed another version in the same folder 32 bit Program Files with extension 78.



Actual results:

I opened the 78 version and started asking to enter passwords. (over 200!). 
It's unacceptable that there no checkbox or option in registry to just enter passwords from previous version and to put in a new update. 
So simple.
Why to broke what does work perfectly and securely?


Expected results:

So simple just works it must have.
No asking about passwords as they are aware by updated version.
Bug: Editing a message filter produces an elongated dialog that sometimes crashes (the dialog, not the whole app)

Steps to reproduce:

This is occurring in 78.1.0 (64-bit) on Windows 10 version 2004 build 19041.423.
Tools|Message Filters, then in the combo box next to "Filters for:" I select an account. I see a list of filters for that account.
When I "Edit..." any particular filter, a dialog pops up as expected but it's non-scrollable no matter many matches are in the list. So I see a vertically elongated Edit dialog for many of these filters.
For one of my filters which has a very long list of matches, I'll describe what happens after I click "Edit..." for it:
The dialog takes a long while to load.
After it loads, I see a vertical dialog that stretches beyond the bottom of my screen.
If I try to move or resize this dialog, it vanishes/crashes and I can't see any way to retrieve it.
The "Message Filters" window is stuck and I can't do anything with it.
I can however go to the main Thunderbird window and do other things.  But "Message Filters" is frozen.
I have to go to Windows Task Manager and end the Thunderbird task(s) and open Thunderbird again to have normal full use (including working with filters) again.


Actual results:

Steps to reproduce explain what happened.


Expected results:

The dialog for editing filters shouldn't have been vertically elongated and the list of matches should be scrollable.  If that was the case, there likely would be no dialog vanishing/crash if the match list was very long.

Thunderbird 78.1.0 on Windows 8.1

The upgrade from 68 to 78 forgets the name of the address book used in a message filter to check the sender's existence in it (changed to Personal Address Book).

Steps to reproduce:
1. With Thunderbird 68, create a new profile.
2. Create an email account.
3. Open the address book.
4. Open menu File > New > Address Book.
5. Create an address book with the name "Test".
6. Add a contact to it: "Turtle Testing" turtle@testing.example.org
7. In menu "Tools", open "Message Filters".
8. Add a filter which checks if "From" is in the address book "Test". As action, e.g. choose to move it to the Trash folder.
9. Save the filter and exit Thunderbird.
10. Launch the profile with Thunderbird 78.
11. Check the message filter.

Actual result:
Filter checks against "Personal Address Book" now.

Expected result:
Filter still checks address book "Test".
