This just started today.

When I respond to an email the person's old email shows "headers" like this...

Thanks for that... but it seems to imply I need an extension to restore the previous header format. But TBird always had it as a default. So what could I have done when I moved the storage folder that changed anything? All I did was rewrite the new file address in

C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\profile.ini

to

[General]
StartWithLastProfile=1
[Profile0]
Name=default
IsRelative=0
Path=X:\Documents\MAIL\THUNDERBIRD MAIL\Profiles\3xojffbk.default
Default=0


But I should note... that I seem to have lost the find duplicates extension. Don't know when. Maybe there's some connection.

It seems the problem is back because the old Respond With Header extension is incompatible with v68.3 of Thunderbird.

I tried two other extensions Compact Headers and Toggle Headers... but neither returns the response headers back to

I think you meant the reply with header add-on, not respond with header. The support site has an issue requesting support for version 68. The author said he is working on it and has posted a link to two betas. There are several comments saying RWH v2.2.1-beta works fine.
