Hello, My pc crashed and I had to d/l Thunderbird on a laptop. I d/l Bidi Mail, so as to be able to write from right to left. I got the surprising message that this is not compatible with version 115.1.0.

What other option can be used so one can compose mails in Hebrew and Arabic on Thunderbird? Can I d/l an older version where I can install this very important add on? Thank you for your advice ~ Dorith

Looks like Eyal has done his bit. https://github.com/eyalroz/bidimailui/issues/74 but the build on github is still for 102. I have asked when they might see a public 115 version. Perhaps wait a day until he responds.

Otherwise every version of Thunderbird ever released can be downloaded from here http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/ Start by selecting version number, followed by platform and finally language version.

Matt hello, Thank you for your response! If I have understood correctly, you advise to d/l version 102 and then I can add this Bidi mail extension. So I will have to delete 105, I guess, and then to go through the process again of entering the various e-mail addresses....... Or follow your suggestion and wait for Eyal to respond, which I'll do for a few days.

I really do not understand why Thunderbird does not include the option for writing from r to l. It would make it so much more attractive for Hebrew, Arabic and other users.

Thanks again and wishing you a good day ~ Dorith

You will get no argument from me, I do my communication in English (sort of anyway). However I find the lack of support for non English in all most things Mozilla to be remarkable for what is supposed to be a global project.

Hi Matt!

I did not hear from Eyal, but my problem got solved. My son took my hard disk with Thunderbird 102 and put it in an old pc of his. So now I just continue with my writing from right to left.

But you are right, it is strange that one needs external add ons for Hebrew/Arabic. There are millions of Arabic potential users. I do not know about other foreign languages. For me at least the problem got solved.

Thank you for your attention in this matter. Wishing you a great new week! (In Israel the new week starts on Sunday). All the best ~ Dorith
