Adding IEEE copyright notice on bottom margin

To put notice on the margin (not in first column as many does) following latex code can be used:

before \begin{document}

 \usepackage{fancyhdr}
 \fancypagestyle{firststyle}
 {
 \fancyhf{} % sets both header and footer to nothing
 \fancyfoot[LO]{978-1-xxxx-xxxx-4/21/\$31.00~\copyright2021 IEEE}
 \renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt} % remove horizontal rule
 }

after \maketitle

 \thispagestyle{firststyle}

  5. Username: xxx@ieee.org
  6. Incoming: imap.gmail.com, 993 (SSL), normal password

thunderbird command error 12

If Thunderbird chowws “…command error 12”

mail.server.default.send_client_info

by default it is TRUE. toggling it to FALSE will stop tbird from sending the “ID command”. The error seems to be happening with some servers that _claim_ to support that command but return an error when it is used.
