User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/99.0.7113.93 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

Mac Big Sur, Thunderbird 78.

App is responsive. I click "Get messages" and no new emails appear. I can send new emails fine. The settings for checking for email are normal. 
I've used thunderbird for years, this is not a mistake due to inexperience that I can see.

I know I have emails pending to be downloaded, both new and already read on my phone/gmail web app. Thunderbird has not downloaded new/unread emails since a few days at least. Before that it worked fine. Again, clicking get messages or waiting for new emails to be shown does nothing, but the app otherwise is responsive.


Actual results:

I quit the app, then reopen it.  The issue is fixed:
New emails appear (both unread and read, meaning it's syncing correctly now again).

This issue happens around once a week perhaps.


Expected results:

The emails should be downloaded when thunderbird checks periodically for them, OR at the very least when I click "Get messages".

Steps to reproduce:

I updated to the latest beta build (89.0b1).


Actual results:

The list of mail accounts has always kept the default account at the top of the list of multiple accounts. No matter what I do, my default mail account is moved to the bottom of the list. I have tried deleting all accounts and rebuilding them one by one. This seemed to work at first, but then on the second restart, my mailbox moved again.


Expected results:

All previous versions of Thunderbird have kept the 1st mail account added, in order, at the top of the list of accounts. This version has decided to change the order with no provision for changing it back. If someone has 5 or more accounts, this can become infuriating as re-ordering the accounts does not "stick".

Bug: Editable labels use hidden inputs shown on click that cannot be (visibly) focused via keyboard, thus inaccessible
Status: NEW
Priority: P3
Created: 2021-04-29 17:31:52+00:00
Resolved: 2022-08-24 08:57:29+00:00

## Example

In chat, open "Show Accounts". Hit Shift+Tab 2-3 times.

Expect: Can edit the input for the display name and status.

Actual: Focus becomes invisible, and the inputs cannot be revealed through "Enter", so there is no way to use the elements through the keyboard.

## Orgin

The problem is that the actual `<input>` elements are `hidden`, and a `<label>` is used in their place. If the label is `click`ed, then the `<label>` is hidden and the `<input>` is revealed. However, they have no focus styling, and the `click` event is not triggered by "Enter" for most elements (unlike `<button>`).

This set up seems to occur in a few places. Although, it is hard to check exactly where. I first spotted it in chat (`chat-contact.js` and `imAccounts.js`). I've seen it in Calendar for editing event items. On checking, I know the same problem exists for cloud providers in the composition preferences (`makeRichListItemForAccount` in `compose.js`). The common usage pattern so far is to show a label, but allow the user to (sometimes) edit its value.

## A Solution

I don't see why in a lot of these cases we couldn't use a single HTML `<input>` and just style it as a normal text node when it doesn't have focus.

Bug: Inability to create a new Vcard or Edit a Vcard which was created in earlier versions.

Resolved: 2021-08-02 12:50:55+00:00

Checked this issue out after report from user in Support Forum could not edit a VCard that was currently being used.
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1334126#answer-1409795

Windows 10
Thunderbird 78.10.0  64 bit
I do not use VCARD, so this is a clean attempt to create and use VCard.
Please note I have done it in the past - just not using now.

I created an address book called 'VCard AB'
In Account Settings, 
select account name
unchecked checkbox to use signature file
selected checkbox to use Vcard, clicked on 'Edit Card'.
Entered details, selected to add to 'VCard AB' and clicked on Ok, but I left the Account Settings tab open - this is important
Checked 'Vcard AB' Address Book and nothing is saved. Closed Address Book.
clicked on 'Edit Card' - details still shown - click on OK

Opened 'Write'
'Attach'  had 'Personal Vcard' selected
completed info and performed 'Send Later'
in Outbox, 
Select email and email had attachment. of 4 bytes
Selected: 'View' > ' Display Attachments inline'
Empty nothing showing.
unchecked: 'View' > ' Display Attachments inline'
SAved attachment to external folder and then choise to open with Thunderbird.
'New Contact' window opens - Empty - no details.
open in Wordpad returns 'null'

Opened the 'Edit card' again and all info displayed still, so click on OK to save and create.
Closed 'Account Settings' tab
Nothing saved in address book and upon reopening Account Settings - 'clicked on Edit Card' - it is now empty.

Needless to say composing Write message same results as previously.

Result: - cannot create a new vcard that retains any data. Cannot edit any previously created and currently being used Vcard. Cannot add Vcard to assigned address book.  'Edit Card' window retains data providing the 'Account Settings' tab remains open, but fails to add that data to Vcard when used in Write message. VCard is added to Write message, but is either empty if new or still using old data as edit failed.


This was also tested in Safe Mode to ensure nothing was conflicting.

Tested In version 68.12.0,  a vcard was attached, in Outbox, attachment size 116 bytes.  Edited and retested - all ok 122 bytes. 
Selected: 'View' > ' Display Attachments inline'  and details visible.
So no issues in last of the 68* versions.

Actual results:

-The warning dialog, "Add security exception" is window-modal, so the user cannot do anything with Thunderbird's main window while the dialog is up (but other open windows can be used)
-Clicking on "Confirm security exception", "Cancel", do cause the dialog to close, but none of them -- even if "Get certificate" etc was clicked and accepted --  cause the dialog to stop immediately re-appearing.
-Since the dialog keeps appearing, that requires restarting thunderbird to fix the problem
	
Some diagnostics show that this happens when the certificate on the server is renewed. And for some certificate issuers, the renewal rate can be as low as 4 months. This means the bug can be triggered every 4 months, and given a lack of session restore (for thunderbird windows, including composer windows) that means that a lot of work can potentially be lost in the restart.. not to mention the annoyance of the process and bringing back all the windows you had open.

There was already a bug filed for this 11 years ago (Bug 539939), but it was closed, and I was told to open a new one instead of commenting there. So hence this bug filing. That bug also references another closed bug 493980.

Tested on Thunderbird 68 (linux Fedora 31), and many versions prior to it which all had the bug (I am thinking about an upgrade to version 78 -- but the changelog says a lot of my extensions will no longer work, so that makes me hesitant). 

My mailserver's sys admin is willing to help in debugging/testing this. 




Expected results:

Once you click on either "Cancel" or "Confirm security exception" the dialog should go away and perform the specified action, without reappearing.
