Here's one PITA way to do it.

Point the cursor at the top entry in the drop down list, don't click, just
point and the entry will be highlighted. Nest press and hold the DEL key
till they are all deleted. Takes a second or two for a long list.

Something must be broken in this version. Used to work.


Hey, that worked. Thanks.

That's the one thing that annoys me about Mizilla open source products
including Thunderbird and Filezilla - they change things between
versions sometimes and one feature that you like is changed or moved
to a different location and you have to hunt to find out how to do
something that you've always done before.

In this case the feature is broken.

Your point is well taken. With so many people doing the development in so
many different locations the project coordination gets un-coordinated.
