18 For me it works again after changing lightning add-on to the official
19 one from https://addons.thunderbird.net/de/thunderbird/addon/lightning/
20 What i did roughly:
21 1) disable german
22 2) disable lightning, restart tb
23 3) install lightning from official source, restart
24 4) activate german, restart
25
26 Hope it also works for you.
27 Have a great weekend!
