<font size="+2"><font face="Arial">Hi guys,<br>
<br>
About a year ago, I contacted </font></font><big><big>Josiah
Bruner about my doubts on the continuing viability of
Thunderbird as my desktop email client after reading an article
that stated Mozilla was no longer committed to developing and
maintaining Thunderbird. I was concerned since TB is my primary
email account and was wondering if I should switch to Outlook.
I received back a reassuring message from Josiah stating "</big></big><big><big>although
the Mozilla Corp no longer "develops" Thunderbird, the product
is still in great shape and the community continues to land bug
fixes and/or improvements daily."<br>
<br>
Evidently then, Josiah added me to the tb-planning mailing list
--- which I'm glad he did. I actually read those emails (and
actually understand much of it!) which proved to me the great
commitment of time and passion the active volunteers have for
delivering and improving a great email system. <br>
<br>
Thank you so much - you guys rock!<br>
<br>
I do have an issue with this last update which really bugs me. <span
class="moz-smiley-s1"><span> :-) </span></span>
<b><font color="#6633ff">No longer can I paste in an URL in the
"Link Location" box</font></b> when I'm doing what I call a
hyperlink (Text that contains the link). I can type in the link
address and it works just fine - but, the box will no longer
accept the address pasted in. HELP!<br>
<br>
Also, if you can send me any information on adjusting the
Settings on size of fonts, I would really appreciate it. I was
using an old desktop (don't laugh) using Windows XP which
recently crashed on me. My son came to my aid and set me up a
Mac Mini which he had on hand, and partitioned it so I could use
Windows and he installed Windows 7 Ultimate for me. <br>
<br>
Everything restored fine, except the size of the fonts on TB are
very different now. I tried different adjustments in the <i>Settings</i>,
but when I type a font in <i>Write </i>that is comfortable for
me to see (my eyesight is not the best), when the message is
received, the font can be mixed size, part of it huge.<br>
<br>
Also, now the<i> Inbox</i> message font is so small, I strain to
see it. Is there any way to enlarge that? In my old system,
the font was much larger and I had no problem.<br>
<br>
Thanks for your time,<br>
<br>
