Bug: Thunderbird will not notify the user when it can't fetch mail
Status: RESOLVED
Priority: --
Resolution: DUPLICATE
Created: 2024-01-30 11:28:32+00:00
Resolved: 2024-01-30 12:16:04+00:00

Steps to reproduce:

When Thunderbird can't fetch mail, it will usually not notify the user of this issue. If left to run with automatic "check for new messages", the user might trust the software, and not notice for weeks or months that mail is not fetched. This can lead to major personal or work-related issues, and loss of trust in the software.

This was observed using POP3 accounts on Thunderbird up to version 115 on Gentoo Linux.

There can be various causes of being unable to fetch mail:

- Thunderbird was updated but never restarted (unsure about this one)
- Random problems (https://www.reddit.com/r/Thunderbird/comments/100mb3f/)
- Network problems or timeouts (https://www.reddit.com/r/Thunderbird/comments/100mb3f/)
- OAuth token expired (mailnews.oauth: Error response from the authorization server: invalid_grant; AADSTS700082: The refresh token has expired due to inactivity. - https://www.reddit.com/r/Thunderbird/comments/100mb3f/giving_up_on_thunderbird/kb93qfx/)
- Internal errors due to e.g. corrupted files in the profile (JavaScript error: , line 0: NotReadableError: Could not read file(/home/.../popstate.dat) because it is not UTF-8 encoded - https://www.reddit.com/r/Thunderbird/comments/100mb3f/giving_up_on_thunderbird/kk4iloy/)

The easiest reproduction is probably to corrupt the popstate.dat file with random binary data.


Actual results:

Thunderbird will be stuck showing the pulsing blue progress bar for the specific account, but never succeed in fetching mail. If another account successfully fetches mail in the meantime, the progress bar will be overridden, hiding even this indicator of potential problems.


Expected results:

Thunderbird must inform the user if problems occur when trying to fetch mail. It must do so in an obvious manner, e.g. via notification or popup message in the foreground. Similar to how calendar alerts grab your attention.

It doesn't have to do so immediately, to not annoy the user on transient network problems. But it has to do so in a timely manner.

Thank you!
Bug: Scanner Application (PDF Attachment) calling Compose window not working since 115.7.0
Status: NEW
Priority: --
Created: 2024-01-30 11:42:56+00:00
Resolved: 2024-11-18 08:18:33+00:00

Steps to reproduce:

Using Brother CC3 Scanner Application.
This application scans the flatbed scanner, created a PDF and calls Thunderbird.exe with a compose mail window.


Actual results:

Since upgrading to 115.7.0, Thunderbird application opens and then (sends?) the PDF file to open in Firefox. It does not create a new compose window.

Have rolled back to 115.6.1 and it works correctly without changing any settings.


Expected results:

New email Compose window should open with the PDF file attached.

Created: 2024-01-30 14:29:30+00:00
Resolved: 2024-01-31 11:10:33+00:00

Steps to reproduce:

thunderbird 115.7.0 doesn't send attachment using Network Scanner Tool Lite (Sharp scanner program). The previus version of thunderbird is working (115.6.1).

To reproduce install Network Scanner Tool Lite from the sharp website (https://global.sharp/restricted/products/copier/downloads/search/uk/result.html?pid=375&os=48&region=8&lang=2)
Configure a profile as execute program, find the thunderbird exe. keep the file type as <Image>. Use a Sharp to scan to this profile.

PS: i have to use "open this program" in the network scanner tool profile cause use the "email program" is broken and didn't open the default mail sender (it's not relate do thunderbird, i know)



Actual results:

It open only the thunderbird program, without the create mail wizard and without attachment obsvly. 


Expected results:

it should (as it does in the 115.6.1 version correctly) open Thunderbird with the create new mail wizard, and the attachment in pdf ready to send.

Bug: Brother iPrint and Scan Workflow fails to open Thunderbird with new e-mail after 115.7.0 update
Status: RESOLVED
Priority: --
Resolution: DUPLICATE
Created: 2024-01-30 23:19:57+00:00
Resolved: 2024-01-31 20:44:17+00:00

Steps to reproduce:

Existing Workflow previously created in Brother iPrint and Scan would scan document, then open Thunderbird creating new e-mail with scanned document attached.  Thunderbird was configured to automatically update and updated to v115.7.0 on 1/25/2024.  After the Thunderbird update, running the workflow in iPrint and Scan fails to open Thunderbird.


Actual results:

I disabled automatic updates in Thunderbird, then downloaded and installed the most recent release prior to 115.7.0, which I found to be 115.6.1.  After rolling Thunderbird back to the next most recent version 115.6.1, the iPrint and Scan workflow worked as expected.


Expected results:

Release 115.7.0 should respond to request to open new e-mail with file attachemtn provided by requesting program.

Open the Add-ons Manager and select the category "Themes". Then enable the dark theme. Select another category, e.g. "Extensions", and return to the category "Themes". Now Thunderbird is no longer using the dark theme. Apparently the dark theme is automatically disabled. Strangely all themes appear to be disabled - see screenshot. (This also happens when activating the light theme.)

In the error console the following two warnings are shown, whenever the category "Themes" is selected in the Add-ons Manager:
```

TB daily 2024-01-31.  Shut down Thunderbird with an address book tab.  Start Thunderbird.  Click the AB tab.  Only things on the AB screen are "All Address Books" which has no functionality, AB toolbar, and the list display widget/icon.   No address books listed.

Close address book and reopen from spaces bar and it displays fine.

I'm guessing Alex this is from your checkin.  But I did skip over a couple dailies when I updated this morning.

Actual results:

I use 'plank' as a dock in debian linux 12 (bookworm) ; I install thunderbird with apt.
Every time Thunderbird is updated, the process install the old scalable icon (thunderbird.svg) in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/ but install the new one everywhere a bitmap one is used. Plank use both in the dock, the scalable one is used to magnify the bitmap icon when the mouse cursor fly over it and to generate a shadow. So the two different icons are superposed and it's ugly.


Expected results:

Installation would install the right scalable icon, thunderbird.svg, in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/ , and not the old one.

I'm using Thunderbird from Debian packages, version 1:115.7.0-1 from Trixie.


Expected results:

Switching to wayland instead of relying on xwayland solved the issue on Firefox, I did not tested it for Thunderbird, does MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND works for thunderbird too? Is there an "about:support"-like thing in thunderbird to tell if thunderbird us using wayland or xwayland?
Bug: Thunderbird Default pop3 Settings will automatically delete old messages from mail server
Status: RESOLVED
Priority: --
Resolution: INVALID
Created: 2024-02-01 22:50:11+00:00
Resolved: 2024-02-02 11:29:14+00:00

Steps to reproduce:

I add a new email account using pop3 which already has lots of messages on the mail server (also old messages from some months or years ago).
I don't look into the detailed settings for the account because receiving and sending mails already works. I leave all account settings as they are by default.


Actual results:

Then (and this is configured like that for several years already in all thunderbird version till the latest!) after some days all old mails on the server (older than 14 days) will be deleted because of the default settings (see screenshot attached) regarding "Leave messages on server": By default it is activated for pop3 that thunderbird will delete mails on the server older than 14 days. This is a huge problem and might lead to big data loss for users. 


Expected results:

An email programm never should by default delete anything unrecoverably from its clients mail server. So by default the two settings "For at most 14 days" and "Until I delete them" should be deactivated / toggled off for pop3.

apparently it's a random topic, because I didn't participate in the discussion, it's not the latest one, it wasn't opened previously and so on... I don't find any apparent logic in the opening of these trees.
in troubleshooting mode the issue does NOT seem to arise, but I only use the confirmbeforedelete addon and I doubt it is causing the problem.
