![]() You can't open TB through it by clicking the notification. Notification should open in the Windows notifications. You can try to set in Options > Advanced > Config Editor. (In reply to Richard Marti (:Paenglab) from comment #8) It feels like the Tb devs don't use it themselves or just don't care. Thunderbird always needs so many user hacks to be useful. So I had to replace the whole thing by an extension (Mailbox Alert) and an external process ( - not very reliable though). It still has its own clumsy thing that doesn't integrate visually and won't even notify every message but only one until you give Tb some attention. But it still doesn't use the Windows 10 platform that's been around for like 5 years. I'd be totally fine with notifications only showing while Tb is running. So we need no background process for Thunderbird. ![]() With no server connection, no notifications could ever be triggered. When I close Thunderbird, I want all server connections to be closed. While I agree that browsers should be able to show push notifications while they're not running (they currently only do on mobile platforms, again different lifecycle with background services), I disagree that mail programs should do this. I know nothing about games and Word (6.0 to 2019) has never shown me any notification. Alarms is an UWP ("modern") app that has a different lifecycle than desktop apps. Settings isn't sending notifications, that's other parts of the system. ![]() Skype is always active in the background (yet it fails to notify me for a while, but that's another topic). All such notifications need some program to run. No program can do anything while it's not started.
