Many times, I'm not saying you, they leave out meaningful info as to what they have done or changed.  Unfortunately developers can't test out all combinations.

Yes, I understand this. My systems are always configured to look the 
same from version to version as much as possible. I pretty much keep 
making the same "changes" based on my notes and a lot of saved files. I 
don't recall when this problem started, I ignored it at first.

I just booted Fedora 21 on the other computer and started Firefox 38.0.5 
and Thunderbird 37.0.1, clicking on the same URL in t-bird does not 
produce any sort of notification in Thunderbird. It occurs to me that 
F-21 has not been updated recently, guess I'd better do that. But as it 
stands the "browser notification feature" appears to have been 
introduced with F-22.

I updated F-21, it still runs Thunderbird 37.0.1 and there is no change, 
still no "notification."

I am keeping F-21 since with SeaMonkey it can print downloaded crossword 
puzzles that require Flash, something I can no longer do in Firefox.
