Mouse Shortcuts

This is a list of the most common mouse shortcuts in Thunderbird.

Command Shortcut
Decrease Text Size Ctrl/Cmd+Scroll Up
Increase Text Size Ctrl/Cmd+Scroll Down
New Plain Text Message 1 Shift+Write
Plain Text Reply 1 Shift+Reply
Plain Text Reply All 1 Shift+Reply All

1: By default, messages are composed in formatted (HTML) format, i.e. with the ability to use style such as bold, italics, etc. By holding down Shift when clicking on the Write, Reply, and Reply All buttons, a plain text message will be composed instead. If the default setting is to create plain text messages, holding down Shift will instead create a formatted message.
