Hi,

I updated to 140 on one windows laptop, since then the Inbox sub-folders of a Ymail account disappear. The weird thing was that on start-up, some were displayed, but disappear one-by-one. Another laptop which was running 120 still had the sub-folders intact. I updated that to 140, and when TB restarted, the sub-folders were displayed, then slowly disappeared, one-by-one. It is only the Ymail account that is effected, we have a couple of Outlook accounts that display their Inbox sub-folders. I have selected "Subscribe", all folders are selected. I've unticked the sub-folders thinking that maybe it would allow me to re-select them, but on a re-start they are still shown as selected.

Hope you have a solution.

Thanks,

I have just set up Thunderbird with a handful of email accounts.

All inboxes show in the "All Folders" panel block, but when "Unified Folders" block is selected, the accounts prefixed "Intuition" fail to show in the panel. The Unified Inbox DOES receive mail from these hidden accounts, but this isn't really good enough as I need to be able to browse in to the folders within these accounts regularly.

Having both Unified and All views up is a workaround, but with 10+ accounts it takes up the full length of the screen when collapsed and is not the ideal setup.

I have deleted the folder index json and a couple of other internet-sourced tricks but to no avail.

Image attached - accounts prefixed "intuition" are the culprits!

I have a Google Workspace account and am trying to use Thunderbird as an email client.

If I let Thunderbird figure out the settings it will fail to recognize imap.gmail.com and smtp.gmail.com as the server.

I'm on a Mac M1 running macOS 15.5 The Thunderbird version is the latest at 115.10. Neither the hardware, the OS version, or Thunderbird seem to matter to the issue at hand, as described below. What seems to matter is the fact that I have multiple mail accounts on my Thunderbird.

When I do the manual setup and click 'Re-test' I get the "The following setting were found by probing the given server" on a green background, screenshot also attached.

However, after clicking on 'Done' I'm getting the "Unable to login at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password." Screenshot also attached.

If I do Advanced config with what I know to be correct settings the account is not functional, I cannot see any email that's on the server and cannot send email.

I know the mail settings to be correct and the mail server to work properly because if I setup Thunderbird from scratch on a Linux or macOS machine, everything works as expected.

In the prefs.js file I can see multiple entries for mail.smtpserver.smtp*.username with the same value ("virgil@sproutwyze.com"), definitely from the multiple attempts to create a functional mail account. This shouldn't matter though since only one of those smtp server appears in "mail.smtpservers".

Lastly, I have upgraded Thunderbird to 128.13.0esr hoping for a different outcome. Alas, the behavior is the same though logging information sent to the error console is much better. NOTE: for the manual setup there is nothing on the error console when I press on the 'Done' button.

Any suggestions for how to fix the problem? Thank you.

In my archive folder ...

  • all incoming mails still have tags (because they are stored inside the .eml files).
  • But all outoging messages have lost their tags. I think those are stored in .msf files.

This is painful, because this means countless hours of lost work.

Is there any way to rescue the tags ?

(I use Maildir storage format.)

Apparently TB has made an update overnight and now my "select all" button is gone when trying to delete emails in the inbox? I have looked in everything I can to get it back in settings etc...........nothing there. I need this badly because deleting 1 email at a time takes forever when there's more than a hundred spread out between all my addresses in the morning, and most times only half get deleted and the other half end up in the "important" or "all mail" folders and I have to do it all over again (only the gmail ones). The "select all" seems to put all of them in the delete folder....most the time. What happened?

Like many others task reminders do not pop up any more. That is, old and repeat -- in case it matters? -- task reminders do not pop up, but a new task reminder did so. So, it appears, repeat reminders are frozen in the past. I do log out occassionally. Thunderbird 141.0 (64-bit) on Windows 10. "Show the reminder dialogue (X)" and "Show missed reminders for writeable calendar" are ticked. "calendar.alarms.show" and "calendar.alarms.showmissed" are set to true. "calendar.alarms.onfortodos" is set to 1. Any other ideas?

Not sure which "topic" best describes my question, so . . . .

OS: Windows 11 Thunderbird 140.1.0esr

I have been using T-bird for several years, and have made to changes to configuration in recent memory. Beginning today, when I try to send an email through my Comcast account, it fails with the following message:

“An error occurred while sending mail: Outgoing server (SMTP) error. The server responded: resomta-h2p-555031.sys.comcast.net resomta-h2p-555031.sys.comcast.net EXMTP server not available.”

The outgoing SMTP server is configured as follows: Outgoing server: smtp.comcast.net Port: 465 Security: SSL/TLS

For comparison, sending email from my Android phone, using the Gmail client with the same server specs, also fails, thought it gives no information.

For more comparison, I configured Outlook to test with it, and it was able to send successfully. I noticed in setting it up that it used the same server name, but with port 587. Armed with that information, I changed the port setting in T-bird to 587. With that change, the send still failed but with a different error:

Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.comcast.net was lost in the middle of the transaction. Try again.

Any help is appreciated.
