Hi,

On my desktop, thunderbird does an awesome job cutting spam. While on the mobile its terrible, not just are most spam mails coming thru but some legit emails are getting flagged. Is there some way to make it mimic the desktop.

Thanks in advance

What's happened here. I cannot check my e-mails without changing my Password. Accept no matter what password I put in it rejects it. I have a backlog of about 600 e-mails. I recently changed my password with the phone company. Is that the one I should be using?

Had a 'Onetel' e-mail address for years and have had the same issues with it a few times where as it just 'drops out.

Have been on here before and received good advice. Last time it dropped out apparently because it didn't know the servers name and that was it it didn't want to play any more. I am determind to get this working again so that I can send from One Tel. It has a Forwarder to another account so I still get the messages. Also have gone in via TalkTalk (who apparently now own Onetel and can receive the messages on my phone (iPhone13) but very hard to reply from it. Any help to get this account up and running from my Desktop gratefully recieved.

Thanks, Dick.

I just updated to version 140.0 and now my subfolders are out of order. Is there a fix for this, short of fixing it manually? I miss how they were automatically alphabetized. That went away when manual reordering was implemented. I can't grab a bunch at the same time and move them, since the order is so messed up.

Hello, I usually redirect incoming email automatically to custom local subfolders (POP account).

Today I noticed that, since october 2024, my Message Filters started copying emails, instead of moving them, despite the still-correct instruction. So I'm left with a bunch of duplicates.

Does anyone know how to fix this bug?

Hi guys. It used to be that when I read an email and click the delete button, the tab would close and it would return to the folder the email was in. But since the last update, it just shows me the next email in the folder.

Is there a way to change that? I want to return to the folder after an email was deleted. I don't want to look at the next email.

I looked in settings everywhere and if there is a way to change that in settings, I can't find it.

Thank you so much in advance for your help.

Dragging and dropping a folder into another folder opens target folder. It shouldn't do that. The target folder should simply accept the folder being dragged into it and stay closed, as it always did since inception until a few versions ago. It is sooo annoying to always have the target folder fully expand when I have not desired it to do so! How can I prevent that from happening? Any help much appreciated.

I exported up my Thunderbird data to an external hard drive from my PC in Croatia which I have been using there for the past year.

I am in South Africa now for a few months and imported the data to my laptop with a new Thunderbird installation.

I have 5 email accounts on one domain, and 1 on another domain.

When I checked for new mail, I was asked for passwords for the 5 accounts on the one domain, and after entering this, the new emails came through fine.

However the one email account on the other domain did not ask for a password, and when I connect I get a message: "Connection to server xxx@xxx.com was reset" I can send emails with this account, but cannot receive any.

Interestingly, I have a previous installation on a desktop PC here in South Africa with the same email accounts. I tried that specific email account and it connects perfectly. The settings are exactly the same.

How do I solve this on my laptop?

There were prob 20 or so, but now just blank tabs. My In Box and incoming email still show OK and I can read those in a new tab. but what about the old ones? And if I cannot recover, how can I remove those blank tabs. Deleting the usual way does not work.

On Windows 10. I wonder if Co Pilot has something to do with it

I was following instructions for the problem of some task bar icons showing as grey boxes. Still have that problem plus added the problem that thunderbird launches with the setup accounts dialogue page. The 'help>troubleshooting information>profile file location' reveals the correct profiles that have been updated to the hour before I caused the problem. I have saved the '...roaming/thunderbird folder to an external SSD, and made a new new thunderbird installation following the instructions for moving files to a new computer. Problem persists. Thunderbird will not 'see' the profiles therefore I cannot see my emails.

Ciao :)

I used to use these add-ons

Old Icon Phoenity Buttons Phoenity Icons

to make Thunderbird more attractive, but now I'm having constant problems. The interface has become schizophrenic, and every time I open it, the icons have a different style, so I've been forced to disable the add-ons.

The question is, are there any supported add-ons left? I can't find any on the website. :(
