Try running "thunderbird" from a terminal emulator and see what happens.
Stopped it. opened an xfce4 terminal and typed "thunderbird"enter, same old
same old, two gui's stacked on top of each other.
This, at least, rules out the mouse.
OK, asking my favourite search thingy (spoiler: it's not that one

That for a change actually makes me feel better. I seem to be the only

At least, you don't seem to be the only one having the fun :)

Thanks Tomas.
