Mozilla Firefox Mailbox Problem

[Segilla]

Unaccountably 'Write' has disappeared from the second row top of the screen when e.g. Inbox is open.

What appears now is

File / Edit / Go / Msg / Events and Tasks / Tools / Help.

How do I get Write back again?

[Segilla]

It looks as if the word 'Write' has been replaced by 'Message' leading to a menu ... .

I am unaware that Firefox has any E/mail programme in-cooperated within its Browser.

Consequently, unless you give further info, I would doubt that an answer can be given to your problem.

AB Techies would need to know your Operating system ( Windows XP, Vista, W7 or whatever) and the E/mail programme you are using (Windows Live Mail, G/mail, Yahoo, etc.)

Incidentally, in your E/mail programme, what was the actual function of 'Write'.?

Sorry for not being very technically efficient but I described the problem to the best of my ability.

I have W7 and used to write and receive msges in OE and was persuaded to change to Mozilla Firefox, which as far as I'm aware is, or functions as an email program.

Clicking on Write opened up a page to compose a new msg, but as my subsequent msge said, it is now a two-stage process.

Mozilla Firefox is an Internet Browser, not an email program. Are you talking about webmail (ie, going to a website to sign in and pick up your mail, or a program on your pc acting as an email client (ie, Windows Live Mail, Thunderbird etc?).

[Segilla]

Yes, it's Thunderbird. Whatever, it's annoying that the format has changed without any kind of notice or information.

Perhaps you have accidentally altered the the mail toolbar.

Right click a blank space on the toolbar and see if a menu appears and gives any alternatives which you can activate.

Sorry if I am not very helpful, but I have never had any experience of using Thunderbird, although I understand that it is a good e/mail programme.

Thanks. All is now well.
