When I start up my just-built Thunderbird I get this message:

What should I do?
Don't run as root?
Alternatively remove /root/.thunderbird/ or create a new user and
try running as that user.

I ran as user lfs, but got a message I've seen when testing several
programs:
#########
Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
Error: cannot open display: :0
#########
Then I removed /root/.thunderbird and ran Thunderbird as root. Same
error message as before, except that when the program started up, it
wanted me to configure it as a new user. So something changed.

Hi Alan,
Are you trying to run these programs in chroot? If you are, try
running them on your LFS system when booted.
Hi Doug,
I'm running in my systemd LFS system. In fact, I've built all the
dependencies for Firefox and Thunderbird in that system. I'm replying
to this email in the new Thunderbird.
Also, are you running X as root (e.g. startx while root?) - if so,
please run it as a normal user, as it's not recommended (primarily
for security reasons) that you start/run X as root.
Yes, that's what I've been doing, not having known any better.
Now I've started up as myself rather than root. Now I get a similar
but longer error message:

Now that I've configured Thunderbird for user alan, upon startup I get
only the first three lines from the above:

This is using startx in the Linux console as user alan. X starts with
the twm window manager, which so far as I can see, has very limited
usefulness compared to others.
The only problem left, aside from the error message, is that hitting the
ALT key fails to pop up the top toolbar that normally contains "File
Edit View . . ." This is a problem because I see no way to quit
Thunderbird aside from Control-C or killing the job in Linux.
However, in Firefox hitting the ALT key does bring up the normal top
toolbar.
