I apologize if this is a redundant post; but I was unsuccessful in finding any comments related to this. I have Total Protection 16.0. The antispam toolbar is to work with Thunderbird. I have Thunderbird 68; and it doesn't work. I have done the uninstall/reinstall thing. I have deactivated/reactivated Thunderbird in the antispam toolbar. Nothing has been successful. Can anyone provide help on either (1) how to get this to work or (2) if it doesn't work with the new Thunderbird, when will McAfee be fixing this? Thanks much!

Hi @DavidJ
We are extremely sorry for the inconvenience.
McAfee anti-spam toolbar is not supported on Thunderbird 68.0. This issue happens because Thunderbird 68.0 handles plug-ins and extensions in a different way than previous Thunderbird versions. This change means that the McAfee Anti-Spam plug-in is not compatible with, or supported by, Thunderbird 68.0.
It will be resolved in a future update to your McAfee security software. The update will include an Anti-Spam plug-in that is compatible with Thunderbird 68.0.

Thank you for your reply. Either the Thunderbird choice needs to be removed from the antispam configuration until it is fixed or a disclaimer saying what you said needs to be added. That will minimize consumer frustration. Again, thank you!
