"Send" ghosted when replying all to long list

more options

Hi all,

I have a weird issue with Thunderbird 89.0b4 on MacOS 11.1.

When clicking reply all to an email I received, where I was in cc with another 15 people, the "send" button is ghosted, and I cannot send the email.

The button becomes active again if I remove from the "to" list one or more people until the list gets shorter than 15 people or so. Interestingly, the button stays active if I then add the same addresses back.

This only seems to happen when the people are in the to field. I do not see a similar behavior when they are in the "cc" list.

Is this just a temporary issue due to the beta nature of the version I'm using, or something I'm missing? thanks salvo

Sending is being modified in the beta version. Before reporting it as a bug, I suggest reverting to the previous send method by switching two preferences in Config. editor, as explained in the pink text here.

Thanks. I did try the suggest hacks to the config files, restarted, and got exactly the same problem.
