"Thunderbird Being Managed By Your Organization"...Bitdefender Policy Causing This

windyctyprog

All,

I updated Thunderbird yesterday to V143. After it opened, there was a very large banner at the top of my settings that said:

"Thunderbird Being Managed By Your Organization"

I clicked on the banner and was presented with this:

What is this and why did it just show up? How do I fix this?

I am the sole user of my Thunderbird installation, nobody else.

I have used BD Free for years on my desktop and on my phone, never an issue.

How do I fix it?

Thank you, in advance.

Hello,

Those are the Antispam extensions, depending on the Thunderbird version. For example, If you have Total Security installed on your Windows computer, you can use the Antispam filter with any POP3/SMTP email application. POP3 is a protocol used to download emails from a mail server and is supported by popular email applications like Outlook and Thunderbird.

But I'm not exactly sure why they are displayed there. Support might know more about this.
