Hey @thunderbird just notice that the welcome page in Spanish shows the text in Argentinian. It's a bit similar, but has diferences:
Ayudanos → Ayúdanos
vos → is not used in Spanish
Doná → Dona
Publicá → Publica or Realiza
Tenés → Tienes
and much more...

@victorhck Thank you for the heads up anyway! Hope your language settings are behaving the way you want them now - and thanks for doing more research to find the cause is probably with the machine!

Does anyone know how to switch of the thread grouping thing everywhere in @thunderbird as I hate it and every time I open a new folder or whatever I have to go and fix it after not being able to find things

@peterainbow @normplum This post on the Thunderbird subreddit might also be useful! Let us know if it works.

Do you need to BCC the same recipient on every outgoing email? Thunderbird makes this easy! 💪

Go to Account Settings > Copies and Folders > check 'Bcc these email addresses' for each account. ✅

If you’ve visited the Thunderbird website, maybe you’ve noticed something. Is it more modern? More organized? Dare we say it, a little shinier? ✨

I received two emails late last night from a user of my extension.
The first read, in total, "WHY AM I GETTING HUNDREDS OF NOTICES!!!!"
The second, a bit later, read (again, this is the entire message), "JEZUS FUCKINNG CHRIST THE MESSAGES"

@jik Ooooof. You and our add-on developers are awesome and don't deserve this. We hope you got either a useful reply or radio silence.

Firefox is going to do more telemetry... again! this time on your web searches. https://blog.mozilla.org/en/products/firefox/firefox-search-update/
the battle to make Firefox go to zero market share continues. well done Mozilla for knowing how to read a room.

thinking about some top cybersecurity tips for normal people

  1. use a password manager (like 1Password (cloud), Bitwarden (cloud), or KeepassXC (local))

  2. use an ad blocker (uBlock Origin)

  3. maximize the use of multi-factor authentication

  4. host contacts in a privacy-respecting service. do not share contacts with apps

  5. use a privacy-respecting email provider. archive email to a local drive, which @thunderbird makes easy

  6. for regularly visited websites, even if you sign-in to use them, use @torproject Tor Browser, if the service does not block Tor

for technical folks

  1. self-host contacts

  2. self-host email

  3. use YubiKeys everywhere

(had to delete this post and repost due to an idiot reply)

@yawnbox @torproject Thanks for the recommendation! These are some great tips, and we agree that cybersecurity (and Thunderbird) is for everybody! 💙

@yawnbox @torproject This would be a great suggestion for Mozilla Connect! (https://connect.mozilla.org)

Your podcast has media file enclosures with 6 steps of redirection.
https://pdst.fm/e/dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/media.transistor.fm/da8c0690/2e4b4de8.mp3
Feed Validators say that apple will only follow 5 of them and I think one analytics step is enough, 0 would be even better.
I think you should axe the intermediary steps.

@taketwo Thanks for letting us know. We'll get in touch with Jason once he's back next week.

Just dropped C$27 on @thunderbird (net to Tbird $25) because there's only two ways to get the bugs/features that aren't red hot done: do it yourself, or pay someone else to work on them. I went for option B.

@abivia We seriously appreciate both your donation and your appreciation. We proud to be driven by donations like yours and the values described on our website.

I see some people are really disappointed about Debian packaging a stripped-down version of KeePassXC. But hey, I actually wish there was also a minimal @thunderbird package without integrations of IRC or Matrix etc, just with core email functionality.

@triskelion Sounds like an idea for https://connect.mozilla.org !

@triskelion @Conan_Kudo Okay, thanks not only for posting the submission AND for doing it with such an awesome template! (We're sort of a fan of Neal's here!)

Consulta para quienes usan ...
¿Les suele pasar que al responder un email, de los que vienen con formato/html, les queda el color del texto en blanco?

Tengo que seleccionar negro cada vez (si no el texto queda igual que el fondo... de hecho todo el texto citado también queda en blanco....)

@lufertec Hay un artículo de SUMO que trata un problema similar. ¿Ayuda alguna de las sugerencias? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1431042 (via DeepL)

Ever since I quit Google I've stopped receiving junk emails, used to come about 10 a day and would end up in promotions folder, or updates, or socials, which google created. Now, I get nothing. Only newsletters, some of which are industry related so I don't mind them.

Bonjour,

J'utilise #k9mail pour avoir #thunderbird sur mon Android.

Que recommandez-vous pour avoir aussi le calendrier et les autres fonctions de Thunderbird :).

Merci de votre retour.

@jose_relland @thunderbird @k9mail We recommend using CardDAV and CalDAV along with Davx5 to sync them: https://www.davx5.com/

Why isn't @thunderbird compatible with KDE Plasma and Wayland? The tabs just keep jumping all over the place...

thunderbird,
@thunderbird@mastodon.online avatar

@kim_harding In KDE, if you go to System Settings > Window Management > Window Behavior > Focus that's where you can turn 'Focus Stealing Prevention' to none. That's one possible workaround. Is this still happening today?

lately #thunderbird is freezing at start.. very slow response, almost unusable UI. takes a while to get to normal behavior, and sometimes freezes completely (=have to kill process).
using just 14 imap accounts (in 4 different servers) with a few dozen filters, and ~10 RSS feed subscriptions.
also connected to cardav/caldav with a single nextcloud instance.
could be network related, but have noticed same behavior both with slow/fast network connections.

@thunderbird
any ideas? tweaks perhaps?

thunderbird,
@thunderbird@mastodon.online avatar

@uhuru We're glad these steps seemed to have worked for you! Give us a heads up if the behavior comes back.
