a thoughtful use of digital
There are (several) extensions of Thunderbird that allow you to use Whatsapp on your PC, as you can see in the image below.
If you have a problem of “space on disk”, causing the disconnection from Whatsapp, you could try to find and destroy the cache of TB Whatsapp (a folder called web.whatsapp.com or something like).
I was able to solve this problem in this way.
I have TB in american english, but I hate american english date format (mm/dd).
To fix this ugly, terrible, disgusting way to show dates, I tried unsuccessfully to:
The only way, then, seemed to set whole TB in Italian (or in an other not-english language that has dd/mm).
But there is a real possibility: use en-GB instead of en-US: and so you have both, english and dd/mm as date format.
It can happen that your TB theme (unintentionally and therefore inadvertently) changes and as a result it doesn’t match with your custom css (in chrome folder). You can see below an example of this:
As you can see, you get not only a very ugly appearance, but using TB becomes almost impossible.
To fix this problem you have to check (in edit -> settings -> add-ons and themes) what theme you are using, and if necessary, re-set the correct one, that suits to your css.
If you have some layout problems with Cardbook (addressbook manager) in the latest releases of Thunderbird you can try to install the latest release of Cardbook as a file from their website.
You can use a chrome folder adding it to the root profile default of TB. Chrome should contain a css file and the desired icons.
If even after adding chrome folder thuderbird doesn’t use your cutomized css, you should try with:
Settings/Options > Advanced > General > Config Editor
toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets > true
Google automatically rewrites the “From” field of any e-mail you send through its SMTP servers to the default address set up in your Gmail account, even if you don’t send the mail directly from Gmail. If you’re not careful, this can tarnish your business image. This small quick fix has to be done before you start sending e-mails to help you keep your branding consistent.
Start by signing into the Gmail account you use with Google SMTP. Click the gear icon in the top left corner, then choose Settings. Select the Accounts and Import tab. Look at the Send mail as section and make sure you have more than one e-mail address set up. If you don’t, add another account, preferably one personalized with your business branding. Now simply make this your default account; Google’s SMTP will automatically rewrite the From field using this address instead of your Gmail account. It’s that simple!
K9-Mail is a good app, but unfortunately rarely updated, in the last year. Besides, it has had an annoying cryptography bug and a notification bug.
So we tried FairEmail, that is definitely more accessorized, but not really privacy-friendly as they pretend, and not so open source: impossible to contact the developer, and pro functionalities are blocked until you pay something.
So, we went back to K9-Mail, that is absolutely open-source, even more “spartan”, but in its latest release without cryptography bug and notification bug.
In Thunderbird you can use the “Open With Options” add-on, which let you choose with what browser you want open a given link in a given e-mail.
You can add new browsers as well, in a very easy way.

Ricordarsi poi di sincronizzare con Google contacts (se l’avete).
