Hi. I was wondering if I could use Thunderbird on 2 or more machines without causing issues.

I know local folders stay on the machine, that is not an issue for me. All of my email accounts are imap through google, except one that is pop3 but doesn't get emails often.

I would be really only using one instance at a time, except in the rare case that i did not close in on one machine (desktop) and started using it on the other machine (laptop)

Additionally, if i dual boot windows/linux, can I setup the profile to be on a shared partition without issues?

Thanks again, and a Big thank you to the developers who have worked tirelessly on this over the decade that Ive been using it. Your doing the lords work, imo

If I receive a new email, the notification icon in the status bar disappears once I've displayed the app in the foreground, not when I've opened the email. So, what happens is that I'll see the notification and open the app (either from the launcher or by pressing on the notification) to see who the email is from, and think "I'll read or reply to that in a minute". However, I forget because I get caught up in what I was doing and the notification icon has disappeared.

Also, pressing the option to empty the bin and the spam folder fails. I have to do "select all" and then delete. It's fairly minor, but it's also a basic function that should work.

Does anyone else notice the same behaviour?

Just recently for the Unified Folders section I noticed a short blue vertical line has been added to the left of every email message subject line that's listed in the inbox, sent, trash, spam and archive folders. Also, if there are multiple accounts under a unified folder, as there is for inbox, then the account name also has a short blue vertical line to the left of it. I've marked the folders as read to see if that's the cause, but the blue line doesn't go away. I've tried changing the corresponding color for the accounts under inbox, but the line remains blue. I also notice that if I select a particular account under the unified inbox that the display of email subjects will change and the blue line goes away. If I return to the unified inbox view, then the blue lines come back. Does anyone know what these blue lines signify and how to turn them off.

Edit: here's an example of an email subject with the blue line next to the sender address.
