[ENHANCEMENT] Remove some default settings

[Sami32]

Please explain your proposal with as many details as necessary (Ex. what you're suggesting, why you're suggesting it, what need you thinks it will fill, who it will benefit, etc...).

Some default settings are annoying or "broke" Thunderbird:

• Disabling proxy by default make Thunderbird stop working for some of us using it in a Tor OS environment
• Enabling orthograph spelling before send a message by default is annoying for some of us that have disabled it on purpose.

Thanks for providing this feedback, very much appreciated.

Disabling proxy by default make Thunderbird stop working for some of us using it in a Tor OS environment

Do you mind providing more details on this? Ex. what OS/environment this is.

The reason I disable the proxy by default currently is due to it unfortunately being commonly abused by content filtering/monitoring/MITM software and malware. There's obviously very legitimate use cases for proxies though - but my thinking there was that those require manual set-up anyways, so it wouldn't be an issue for users to just enable it in settings if desired.

Enabling orthograph spelling before send a message by default is annoying for some of us that have disabled it on purpose.

It shouldn't have been enabled for you if you had it disabled - was this not the case for you?

I see, but it will totally fail for TAILS OS users.

Ok, then something weird happened that changed my configuration disabling the orthograph check before send. Perhaps a specific issue only affecting TAILS OS users?

Still the same issue with the latest Dove version and a clean install of the latest TAILS OS.
