Thunderbird Issues

[ProPAAS DBA]

Hi All;

I'm running Fedora 25, the latest update also updated Thunderbird to 
version 52.2.0

Since then I am seeing lots of weird/broken behavior, I have multiple 
accounts and sometimes when I open thunderbird I see the folders in an 
account and other times I see the account name ad no folders (not even 
the INBOX). I seem to be unable to use many folders offline even with 
the flag checked for offline use.

Anyone know of any work arounds? Maye I should downgrade thunderbird? 
Can someone point me towards how to downgrade a single package?

Thanks in advance

That's weird.  Any other package updates that might have caused the
problem?

You could go here and get the appropriate version for your system:
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=39
Then, in the directory where you downloaded the package, run
dnf -C downgrade [package name]
I notice that there is a later version of thunderbird there that you
could update with
dnf -C update [package name]

There is an issue with gmail accounts in thunderbird described here,
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1466136
perhaps that is what is biting you?

Both 25.2.0 and 25.2.1 have this issue -- check the Mozilla forums.

You can do a

dnf downgrade thunderbird
