Currently I use Thunderbird 115.3.3 but prefer older versions due to their design. Do you know of better email clients to consider?

Having used TB for a long time. Present version is 115.6.1. What do you dislike about it? It's still my top emailer.

I have been using Firefox from the beginning when TB arrived, and I’ve stayed satisfied ever since. I’ve shared my experience with many individuals. I’m part of both the Mozilla forums for FF & TB. There are several aspects I don’t like, but the most bothersome are the changes in the top tool bars, the reversed location, and whether that was necessary.

When accessing your mail, clicking on any email highlights it, and after reading, deleting it makes it disappear or shifts to a gray background, indicating what you’re about to remove. However, at times it doesn’t appear clearly, making it hard to track the mouse position and preventing me from deleting accurately. Sometimes the list scrolls excessively, so I end up scrolling up or down to find where to start deleting. This process feels completely random.

If you attempt to delete mail from the inbox while holding down the shift key and pressing the up arrow, it initiates the deletion. After a short delay, the subject box turns white, then after a few seconds a blue highlight appears for 8 to 10 flashes before returning to white, prompting a confirmation if you want to delete more than 67 emails. If you click OK, some are deleted but not all.

I have two PCs, and both behave similarly. I haven’t detailed every deletion issue, as it would be extensive. My intention is to revert to an older version. I wonder if you’re part of the TB forum, as many users share similar frustrations. While the program has been excellent for years, improvements are welcome without discarding its strengths. The tool bar problem can be resolved, but it requires navigating through several steps and hoping for the best.
