If you have an idea for a useful query, please comment in the Discussion tab.

Queries may be used to find Thunderbird related bugs for the purposes of bug triage, finding duplicates, as a model for a more refined query, as a template to create your own query, or for general research. These queries focus on "problem" bugs and so do not include enhancement request bugs. In general, trivial queries will not be listed.

See Thunderbird bug triage for information about the triage process. Queries which address areas that are a documented priority for Thunderbird 3 are prefixed with "TB3!".

Please note that "Thunderbird" bugs are not only in product=Thunderbird, they are also in components of product=Core.
