Greetings Mozilla,

I'm technology adverse but I have been using Thunderbird as my email client for many years. Recently the auto updated my version to: Version 115.3.1 (64 bit)

So the look and feel of the screen is a bit different and there are a couple rudimentary actions I'm having trouble with;

1. I used to be able to see a Tag button that would let me tag emails really quickly. Now I have to right click and scroll to Tag etc. How can I get a Tag button back?

2. Similarly, when I click on an individual message, there used to be a button on the right that said Options and the dropdown would Show Remote Content. Well that Options button is gone and I can't figure out how to show remote content of my incoming emails.

I apologize these issues are so pedestrian... but I'm having trouble with them.

Thanks so much,

Right-click the Unified bar (the one with global search Ctrl+K), Customize..., drag the Tag button onto the toolbar. Tags can also be applied by pressing 1,2,3... for Important, Work, Personal...

Remote content is blocked by default, but when a message with remote content is opened, the Options bar should appear to allow or disallow the content. View/Message Body As must be Original HTML to view remote content.
