It looks like an snap misconfiguration in the appmarmor protection around the snap. I don't think it is an error by thunderbird by itself, but the snap packaging, therefore I reported it to ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/2069966 but they asked me to report it upstream (i.e. here) as well. Actual results: Didn't read autoconfiguration Expected results: Should read autoconfiguration Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/2069966/comments/3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2024-07-22T07:24:52+00:00 Unicorn-consulting wrote: There appears to be a general problem with the SNAPs and the sand boxing.
