Hello Anders,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with Thunderbird.
You made this bug report in 2015 and there have been several versions of Ubuntu
and Thunderbird since then.
Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the
ticket?
If it is still a problem, are you still interested in finding a solution to

Title:
No cursor/keyboard action in email being composed
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Kubuntu install with XFCE desktop. Thunderbird 31.8.0.
Since a few months I have an intermittent behavior where, for no
apparent reason, when I start to compose a new email message, there is
no cursor in the address field or message field (when I click there).
Mouse works as normal and can select text.
On top of this, and this is the suspected bug, the missing cursor
often but not always means that any keyboard action (trying to write)
works on the main Thunderbird window. Space, for instance, scrolls
through the message in the message pane in the main Thunderbird
window, even if the new being composed in another window is on top.
The only way around this issue is to restart Thunderbird or to open a
new email window. When I open another new message window, the cursor
is back in the original email message window.
I have noticed that it takes much longer time to load the email
message window the first time I start Thunderbird, compared to email
message 2,3 etc. Now, when I see the above issue opening a new email
message also takes more time. I am guessing something crashes in the
backend and that it is restarted when I open another new message
window.
