Hi, I just installed a fresh copy of Fedora 31 and installes Thuderbird as my email client. I use it in my other distro (Ubuntu), and to save time, I have all my emails in an USB pendrive. Then, in every fresh installation, I point my Thunderbird folders to /run/media/(username)/Kingston/Thunderbird/Mail. The problem I've got in Fedora is that when I clicked the button to change Local Directory to my USB Mail folder, Thunderbird can't see my pendrive, neither by "other locations" nor /run/media/... I also tried to do a soft link to my pendrive USB folder, but Thunderbird doesn't leave me click on it. Can you help me to resolve this? Thank you. Daniel.

Hi everyone.

I could resolve this issue removing stable Thunderbird and replacing it by 68.5.0. Both versions were in Software app, and I decided to install the stable. Now, with daily version I can see my pendrive.

Thank you. Daniel.
