The USAF Air Demonstration Squadron ('Thunderbirds') is the air demonstration squadron of the United States Air Force (USAF). The Thunderbirds are assigned to the 57th Wing, and are based at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada.Created 68 years ago in 1953, the USAF Thunderbirds are the third-oldest formal flying aerobatic team (under the same name) in the world, after the French Air Force Patrouille. How to increase the font-size in Thunderbird Mail. How to increase the font-size in Thunderbird Mail. 2020 Johan van de Merwe. Posted in Software. As an dedicated Linux user I am using Mozilla Thunderbird as mail client. In this contribution I explain how you can increase the font-size of the mail list with use of CSS. First, Launch the Thunderbird Application. Then, go to Tools Account Settings Server Settings. Next, select Leave messages on the server. Then, select an appropriate number of days to manage Thunderbird mailbox size limit & resolve Thunderbird Mailbox Size Limit Exceeded.
From MozillaZine Knowledge Base
- This article was written for Thunderbird but also applies to Mozilla Suite / SeaMonkey (though some menu sequences may differ).
Thunderbird has several new features which are enabled by default that increase the size of a profile. If you disable offline folders, global search, and the disk cache Thunderbird will only download headers for messages in remote folders (IMAP account). It will fetch the contents as needed when you open a message in a remote folder, but it will only store it in memory.
This configuration is also useful if you have a 3G mobile connection and need to minimize bandwidth usage. If you sometimes want to use some of the disabled features when using a broadband connection consider using two profiles which use common directories outside of the profile to store the messages. One profile would disable features as described below. The other could keep them enabled. That way depending upon which Thunderbird shortcut you use you can easily switch configurations with minimal side effects. See Profile manager (create a new profile), Moving your mail storage location and Shortcut to a specific profile if you want to do that.
- If you have a IMAP account offline folders are enabled that automatically download copies of the messages in all of your folders. You can disable this feature by unchecking Tools -> Account Settings -> Account Name -> Synchronization & Storage -> 'Keep messages for this account on the computer'. However, this doesn't delete any existing offline folders. If you have some look at the local directory setting at the bottom of Tools -> Account Settings -> Account Name -> Server Settings to see where Thunderbird stores the files for that account. Exit Thunderbird and delete any files in that directory (and its children) that have the name of a folder but no file extension (mbox files). For example, 'inbox.' for the inbox folder. Leave the *.msf files alone. The *.sbd files are renamed directories. The 'All Mail' folder in a Gmail IMAP account has a copy of all messages for that account, doubling the number of messages downloaded for offline folders. Thunderbird tries to download only one copy of a message from a Gmail IMAP account and have the folders point to that copy. However, that doesn't help if the message was created using Thunderbird. [1] If you decide to keep offline folders enabled and have a Gmail IMAP account, uncheck 'All Mail' in Tools -> Account Settings -> Account Name -> Synchronization & Storage -> Advanced. As a precaution right click on the Gmail account name in the folder pane, select subscribe in the context menu, expand the folder listing and verify the All Mail folder is not subscribed. Disabling it from being synced should have unsubscribed it. Exit Thunderbird and delete 'All Mail.' and 'All Mail.msf' in the accounts local directory.An alternative way to remove the All Mail folder would be to login into Gmail webmail using a browser, left click on the gear icon in the upper right corner and select Settings, select the Labels tab, find All Mail, click on Hide and uncheck 'Show in IMAP'. Logout and delete 'All Mail.' and 'All Mail.msf' in the Gmail accounts local directory in the Thunderbird profile.Do NOT try to delete the All Mail folder by deleting its contents. That will delete all of the messages for the account when Thunderbird syncs the folder.
- Global searching/indexing uses global-messages-db.sqlite as a pre-built search index. It contains a copy of all of your messages. The search index improves search performance because Thunderbird doesn't have to fetch or parse those messages before searching them. If you have a IMAP account and disable offline folders it will use a background process to download copies of the messages in all of your folders in order to update the search index. Otherwise it copies them from the mbox files. You can disable this feature using Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> General -> Enable Global Search and Indexer. If you do that exit Thunderbird and delete the global-messages-db.sqlite and global-messages-db.journal files in the profile. Help -> Troubleshooting Information -> 'Open Containing Folder' will display the profile directory using Windows Explorer (or your file manager). You can still search messages without global search, you're just limited to searching for messages within the current folder using either Edit -> Find -> Search Messages (Ctrl+Shift+F) or the Quick Filter Bar (enable it using View -> Toolbars -> Quick Filter Bar). You can also create a virtual folder using Saved Search that can contain the contents of any folders in any account. It won't be as quick as Global Search because it doesn't have a pre-built search index. However, using a virtual folder made up of several remote folders seems to work well because the searching is normally offloaded to the IMAP server. Thunderbird doesn't have to fetch the messages, build a search index etc. Shazam tidal. because the IMAP protocol supports a SEARCH command.
- The disk cache mainly caches remote images and SSL certificates. You can disable it by setting the cache size to zero in Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Network & Disk Space -> Disk Space. If you do that exit Thunderbird and delete the contents of the cache directory in the profile.
- Configure Thunderbird to automatically compact more often. Currently Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Network & Disk Space -> Disk Space -> 'Compact folders when it will save over X MB' is set to 20MB. Lower it to 1MB.
- If you are using a IMAP account set mail.imap.expunge_option to 2. That will automatically expunge (physically remove) any deleted messages (in IMAP accounts) when there are 20 messages waiting to be expunged. Expunging physically removes messages that had been marked deleted and hidden from view, but it works differently than compacting. For example, it doesn't care how much space the deleted messages take. Its also a good idea to check Tools -> Account Settings -> Account Name -> Server Settings -> Clean up ('Expunge') Inbox on Exit and 'Empty Trash on Exit'. If you do that it will empty the trash and compact both the inbox and trash folder when you exit Thunderbird.
- There is little that you can do for a POP account (or the 'Local Folders' special account) other than archiving mail outside the profile. See Archiving your e-mail. See Mail Utilities for some utilities such as MboxViewer to view the contents of any mail folders you exported using the ImportExportTools add-on. You should verify that you can read the archived/exported mail before deleting the original.
[edit]
Many Accounts
If you are going to create a lot of accounts you might want to modify some default settings so that you don't have to manually re-configure each account. Changing the default settings has no affect on existing accounts, it only affects accounts that you create after modifying those settings. You can change the settings using the config editor at Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> General.
- Set mail.server.default.autosync_offline_stores and mail.server.default.offline_downloadfalse to disable offline folders.
- Set mail.identity.default.reply_on_top to 0 to reply below the quoted text, 1 to reply above the quoted text.
- Set mail.identity.default.compose_html to false if you want to compose plain text messages .
Enter mail.server.default or mail.identity.default in the filter: field in the config editor to find other default settings you might want to set.

The mainstream full-sized Ford line of cars from 1960 to 1964 was now complemented by a variety of other Fords, including the Thunderbird and compact Falcon, and from 1962 the midsized Fairlane. So the mainline car grew even more, now riding on a 119 in (3023 mm) wheelbase. The engines were carried over from the 1959 Ford, as was the basic chassis design, but the sheetmetal was modern. The retracting Skyliner hardtop was gone, though the Sunliner convertible remained, and the Fairlane name would last only two years before migrating to a new midsize model.
1960[edit]
- 1960 Ford Galaxie Starliner
- 1960 Meteor (Canada)
The 1960 Ford looked all-new with twin headlights riding in a scalloped-square front clip. The Fairlane was now the base model in the full-sized lineup, along with the Fairlane 500, Galaxie and range-topping Starliner.[4] The Station Wagon Series continued with Ranch Wagon, Country Sedan and Country Squire models.[4] The elegant Starliner 2-door hardtop was Ford's choice for NASCAR racing. The 1960 fullsize Fords abandoned the ostentatious ornamentation of the 1950s for a futuristic, sleek look. Round taillights were replaced by half-moon shaped taillights for 1960 only. There were tailfins still, but smaller ones – the focus of Ford's stylists abandoning, as did the rest of the industry, the aviation influences of the previous decade and instead capturing the new obsession – the Space Race. The Galaxie name was particularly appealing to this trend, it seems. Windshield wipers were extended to cover more of the windshield.[5] Ford also introduced the center rear fuel door lid.[6] Engines offered for 1960 were the 223 cubic inch six and 292 & 352 V8s. With the change in dimensions from 1959, the New York Times described the 1960 full-size Ford as the 'longest, lowest, and widest in the fifty-six year history of the Ford Motor Company.'[7] The car ran afoul of regulations in many states, where vehicles wider than eighty inches were typically trucks, which had lighting requirements not mandated for passenger cars.[8]
1961[edit]
1961 Ford Galaxie Sunliner
The scalloped hood was gone for 1961, as the sheetmetal was revised for a cleaner look. This time, the tailfins were almost gone; replacing them, two giant circular taillights at each rear corner, glowing like an afterburner. Ford was definitely going with the space and science-fiction theme, and with successful results; this style of Galaxie is widely regarded as a classic. A new 390 CID (6.4 L) FE V8 was added with a claimed 401 hp (298 kW) gross output in triple-two-barrel carburetor form. A trunk release button was optional.[9]
1962[edit]
1962 Ford Galaxie
With the Fairlane and Fairlane 500 names shifted to a new intermediate-sized model range for 1962, the full-size Ford lineup consisted of the Galaxie, new Galaxie 500 and Galaxie 500XL models and the Station Wagon Series.[10] Also new was a 406 CID (6.7 L) version of Ford's FE mid-sized V8 rated at 405 hp (302 kW). Bucket seats were everywhere in 1962 – sold as 'The Lively Ones', the XL series added buckets to the Sunliner convertible and hardtop coupe. The slow-selling Starliner semi-hardtop coupe was cancelled, leaving Ford no choice than to compete in stock car racing with the Club Victoria, which had a formal roofline. Their top speed was lower than the 1961s because of the inferior aerodynamics. Trying to come up with a quick solution, Ford attempted to enter the Starlift, which was a Sunliner convertible with a removable roof with a curved roofline similar to the 1960–61 Starliner. NASCAR banned the Starlift from competition, and few if any were actually produced. It is said that the windows could not be rolled up on the Starlift when the top was on, as the windows were the stock Sunliner windows which did not fit the roofline.
1963[edit]
1963 Ford Galaxie 500 Sedan
1963 Ford Galaxie 427 Convertible
Ford rolled into 1963 with a NASCAR-winning Galaxie and a 427 CID (7 L) FE V8 sporting either 410 hp (306 kW) or 425 hp (317 kW). A new hardtop coupe body was added to the Galaxie range, and the base model became known as the 300.
The hardtop coupe sported a lower, fastback roofline and was added mid year to improve looks and make the big cars more competitive on the NASCAR tracks. This 63½ model was called the 'Sports Roof' hardtop.
Ford took the 427 CID (7.0 L) equipped Galaxie to the dragstrip in serious fashion beginning in 1963, building a number of lightweight cars just for that purpose. They featured fiberglass fenders, doors, trunklid and aluminum bumpers. Rated conservatively at 425 hp (317 kW), this engine also featured in Carroll Shelby's final incarnation of the AC Cobra.
The Ranch Wagon name was transferred to the Ford Fairlane range for 1963, leaving only the Country Sedan and Country Squire models in the full-size Ford Station Wagon Series.[11]
1964[edit]
1964 Ford Galaxies
The final year of the 1960 full-size Fords was 1964, with the 300 base model again using the Custom name. The base Galaxie was now called 'Custom 500.' The Sports Roof was continued for all hardtop coupes. In addition, new sloped rooflines were introduced for all non-wagon '64 big Fords. Interior trim was new, including new thin-shell bucket seats for all XL models. The instrument panel remained the same, except for the ignition switch, which was moved from left of the steering column, to the right. External styling was once again refreshed, with a more sculptured body that was supposed to reduce drag at high speeds, no doubt done for NASCAR.[12]
Under the hood, the 427 CID (7.0 L) engine carried on the high performance duties. Ford again took the 427-equipped Galaxie to the racetracks in serious fashion in 1964, building a number of lightweight, fiberglass equipped cars just for that purpose. These competed with success not only in North America but also in the United Kingdom. Initial doubts as to their competitiveness in Britain were short-lived; despite their great size and weight compared to the opposition, the Ford 427 engine gave them a competitive power-to-weight ratio and the handling was better than might have been supposed. They were raced in Europe reasonably successfully.
Late in the year Ford introduced their new engine challenger, the SOHC427 Cammer, Though it is not documented it is believed a few may have found their way onto the street. (This engine was only available to racers through the dealer network or from the manufacturer, none were ever factory installed) Rated at over 600 hp (447 kW), this is possibly the most powerful engine ever fitted to a production car by an American manufacturer. NASCAR changed the rules, however, requiring (instead of hundreds) thousands of production examples in service to qualify for the next season, and Ford decided against producing the Cammer in that quantity. Fears of liability concerns and the bad publicity possibilities in giving the public a car that was so dangerously powerful are often cited as reasons, but it might simply have been that Ford doubted that an engine so unsuited to street use could sell in such numbers.
The 1964s represent a high point in early 1960s Ford quality, durability, and styling. They were not only enormously popular, but proved to be so durable that many continued to run well past the 100,000 mile mark without a major overhaul. Holman & Moody continued to supply high-performance equipment for the big '64 Fords, giving them wins at NASCAR.
