why does the upgraded version of firefox not show number of emails in the status bar
The old version of mail notifier showed the number of unread emails in the status bar. After upgrading firefox, the new version no longer shows unread emails. why? how do I get the old version back

Over the years, there have been several add-ons with "mail notifier" in their name. I'm assuming yours was disabled during the upgrade because it isn't compatible. Can you check here:
Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
and see exact what it's called? Also, you can click the "Gear Icon" button and check for updates.
It was disabled upon upgrading so i reinstalled the mail notifier Add on. The new Add on does not provide notification in the status bar. Thank you for responding
The new version is WebMail Notifier 2.7.7
There's no Status bar in FF 4 anymore. It's now called Add-on Bar.
You can use the following add-ons to get the Status Bar as well as the WebMail Notifier back on the bar:

If you don't want to use those add-ons, you can try this link to see if it works:
