Good day,

I am a TB user (for work) and i love it, the main reason being the fact that it's simple, compared to MS Outlook, for example. Easy to use, intuitive for new users, and so on. So congrats to everyone for keeping it simple! :)

Now, an issue i've come across recently. More and more people send documents as .jpeg, pictures taken by smartphones. And, as everyone knows, the recent models have increased the MB of each camera. And most people sadly keep the max resolution, best quality, like you'd use when going on a holiday. But you don't need this when you take a picture of an invoice or a gas receipt. This results in very large attachments, esp. when you add several pics to an email.

The current limit seems to be 25MB (i got this from Google, didn't see any mention of a limit in TB help?!). So my question is simple: can I, a user, increase this limit somehow? Or is it a dev related setting? If users can, please guide me through some options/menus because i haven't found any. I use the latest version, 140.8.0esr. A realistic limit, imho, would be 100MB/email.

Also, kindly please keep feedback on topic, I am not interested in sharing, or sending in any other ways, like wetransfer, google drive, one drive, etc.

Thank you!

Hi, I have an issue with the Android mobile versionof Thunderbird (16.1). I cannot open PDF sent to me, neither through clicking it in the app, nor by downloading it and open it with other applications. The PDFs themself must bei ok, cause I can open them on desktop. Also I don't have issues with opening PDF reaching me by other sources. My os is Android 15. Do you have a fix for it or do I have to wait till it's fixed by a patch? Kind regards

Hello,

Need help with the following as its creating confusing attachments. Whenever someone attaches an EML file to an email, the attachement pane shows the EML file AND the attachments from said EML file along with any other attachement, is there a way to not show the EML attachments to avoid any confusion and not download repeated older attachments?

We have our accounts on one computer and one dedicated email (using Thunderbird) which sends our invoices to our customers in PDF format as an attachment to an email. This stopped working a few days ago. The tech department of our accounts package supplied by Benchmak/Snip has looked at our system and the only thing they can suggest is that the emails are being blocked because may be Thunderbird thinks they are SPAM. We have been using this system for a couple of years now and has been fine. We can send and receive emails to/from this account, it's only the PDF attachments of invoices which isn't working. Can any one help please, thank you.

By right clicking an image, there is a menu which has more options, and in more options there is "send to". By clicking "mail recipient", a dialog opens up to select the file size preferred. Then click attach. At this point, in windows 10, the email is ready with attachment in Thunderbird. Now, new PC with windows 11, when I click attach, the dialog disappears, but no email appears in Thunderbird. I have checked settings, and Thunderbird is chosen for .eml and for MAILTO Does anyone know how to make this work in windows 11?

Hi,

When I search the web for this I get loads of results telling me how to insert emojis in emails I'm sending. That is not my problem.

The problem I have is that someone keeps sending a single emoji as a reply to an email. Instead of displaying that it adds it as an attachment which is really annoying.

How do I fix that? I've already set TB to display images inline but that has no impact.

I'm running TB 146.0b3 (32-bit) although I don't know why. Is there not a 64 bit version and does the b3 mean I'm running a beta version? How do I get to run a 64 bit version?

Thanks,

Leo

Hello! In Thunderbird version 141+, saving attachments from incoming messages is slow. The situation is as follows. A POP3 server and Thunderbird clients are deployed on the local network. When the Thunderbird client receives a message and it appears in the client as new, the user attempts to save all attachments (15 MB) and clicks "Save All." This process takes about 1.5 minutes. In Thunderbird version 115, saving attachments takes 5-10 seconds. Could you please tell me if there's a setting I need to disable in the Thunderbird client? Can I open the "Advanced Settings" in the client and see what specifically I can disable to speed up saving attachments? I've attached the mail server connection settings to my request.
