![]() If the patch broke it, then most likely the first part of the URI will be borked, someUser and / or someHost where modified in Thunderbird itself but were not corrected in the filter rules folder. if you have filters that move mail you will find the entries with the folder address in msgFilterRules.dat looking something like this:Īction="Move to folder URI should match the one you have determined above. This will copy the account number and Folder URI to the clipboard. I did add a debug function in QF that can print out the real URI of a folder which could be used to figure out how to quickly fix all targetFolder attributes in your filter rules. Unfortunately I don't think Thunderbird took such precautions (and the current msgFilterRules.dat format does not support storing such additional, redundant information), so I guess it would take a little detective work to fix. ![]() My Add-ons QuickFolders stores shortcuts to folders also as URI format and I have some mitigation strategies for fixing them when migrating from Thunderbird 91 I basically store the account id for each URI so that QuickFolders is able to reconstruct the URIs automatically.The bug is described here: I think what can happen is that Thunderbird for some reason crashes or fails in this operation leaving you with unusable URIs. Tb should do the migration transparently (and convert all filters, which use these URIs for the targetFolder argument) during the upgrade and restart. Not certain about the "places" thing yet, but at least the color scheme of the icons in the folder pane (and a couple other places) do have improved readability, a bit.Ĭould be caused by Tb102 migrating the settings userName and hostName to what was stored in realuserName and realHostname, which leads to modified folder URIs. PS: Yes, there is also some good with the new 102 update. So when can we expect an update that fixes all this mess and we can get back to doing our work, rather than trying to fix all those annoyances? With several hundred folders, over all my email accounts (pretty much all but one GMail accounts), this is a huge hassle, as on first time access, I have to change the sort order again (commonly by date, newest one first).Īnd also incredibly annoying is that TB102 seems to ignore previously set (and working!) filters and at least some of them are not being applied! I do have a lot of them, as I move pretty much 95% of my incoming emails automatically in one of those many subfolders. On those accounts that DO expand in the folder pane, when clicking on the inbox or any of the (many) folders, pretty much all of them have lost the sort order in which messages are supposed to be displayed. Not sure if this forced reloading of the emails is causing this, but TB 102 is becoming repeatedly unresponsive, to the point where I have to leave one host alone, let it do its things, and temporarily check the email (or write one) on another system. ![]() But TB seems to be eagerly redownloading all my emails (not only headers) on all accounts! They don't show the caret that would allow for expanding, so I can actually see the inbox and all my subfolders (there are a lot of them!). ![]() I do have up to 7 different email accounts, and one or two of them become pretty much inaccessible after the upgrade. On all hosts (though a little random), not all of my previous accounts are properly expanding in the folder pane. With a lot of issue in the aftermath.īeside the update crashing on reboot on some hosts, the 102 update doesn't seem to have been properly tested. Sorry, but the recent update of Thunderbird 102 is turning for me more and more into an unmitigated disaster.įor one, the web site says that 102 is a standalone download, yet, all my hosts have downloaded and installed on reboot the update from 91 to 102.
