hello, I recently started using Thunderbird again. It's been a while and I find that I am using version v8.0 and TBird is now at v.91.xx. (I have to say that TBird v8.0 is a lot better than the other up-to-date software I have been struggling with!!) I am not sure whether I can update. It looks unlikely (Tbird reports that my software is "up-to-date" so I think I have lost touch with the mothership). In one location, I noticed a dropdown menu with Tbird v11.0 showing as the earliest selectable version. If I can't update, could I download the program and start afresh, migrating my (many) folders and many years of emails ... which I value. Thanks for any help, every question I posed to the knowledge database came back with no appropriate answer. .. I need a human being's assistance! Viva mozilla! filterfeeder
