Thunderbird for Android Community Forum

I have app version 18.0. About 20 minutes ago I composed an email to a new contact (responding to a letter he sent me). The email was ready to be sent but before I did so I passed the phone across to my wife to read it. She passed the phone back and the message had disappeared from the screen. I have two email accounts that are Unified. The missing email was written with the main account so I checked in all those folders, including Sent, Junk, Spam, etc. I tried searching for the recipient's email address and tried Search everywhere. I also checked on TB for desktop on my laptop. I thought that composed messages were automatically saved. I have seen this during composition when opening a different app to check something and a message appears at the bottom of the screen "Message saved as draft" or similar. I'm trying think what is different this time. Can you offer any suggestion?

I'm running Thunderbird at the desktop on various Linux and Windows boxes. These instances, along with other interfaces like RoundCube and the like can use my IMAP server to access all the folders in any given email account, move mails between them, add/remove/edit folders etc.

Thunderbird for Android can't even see them, not even the standard sent/trash/etc. options - only .INBOX. I have all the folders in my subscriptions file but nothing shows when I query the folder list from the client ("Manage Folders") and in any case I have unchecked "only list subscribed folders" in the settings for my account.

Any idea what I need to do to get at folders in this instance, because this setup is rendering the client semi-useless for me?

After I read a new message in my Inbox, it seems to disappear from the Inbox. It still shows up in All Mail, and I can find it using the search function, but it no longer appears in my Inbox. Pixel 9a, Android v16 OS. Thanks

Hi,

I have many emails oi my phone and I want to delete 80% of them. How do I do this other than 1 by 1?

Even by date would be okay I guess.

Thanks

Going through my inbox and deleting outdated emails, I accidentally deleted an email I received from PayPal today and can't find it anywhere. Not too hot on all things computer-related, so any help would be appreciated

I'm wondering if Thunderbird on Android can autocomplete email addresses that are not in my address book.

For example, I respond to an email from xyz@abc.com. When I create a new message, not a reply, and type in "xyz@" it fails to find anything. This is the opposite of how Gmail or iOS Mail works.

I have over 1000 emails. how can I delete them but only up to the last say 30 days so I still have them. Or select certain batches of emails to delete, not 1 by 1 as it is now? Thanks

Hi, I have been using Thunderbird for Android for about a month. Loving it. Easy to set up and use. I have three email accounts. The unified inbox showed all emails until yesterday. Now it seems to be showing random emails from all 3 accounts but not all. I have to go to each inbox to get the full overview. What can be wrong?

There are certain emails that I get that in the email list display that show escaping HTML instead of data that would be human readable.

Its not all emails but it seems to be emails that maybe also have an image in the body of the email right away that is perhaps in a specific format that it happens.

I will attach screenshots. Target will be my example.

Thunderbird for android is failing to synchronise data with email servers. Thunderbird for android is the exciting thing for people who prefer privacy and security as a default. But the transition from Top market email providers to thunderbird is not that smooth even after so much of testing the thunderbird android application still legs the reliability people look for a premium email client. The synchronisation with gmail and outlook servers is failing, it has to be manually synchronisation everyday or we don't get the latest emails. This is a headache for users whose work depends upon email communication and they look forward to Mozilla for a private and secure email client. Please I am a big supporter of open source and free internet but we need reliability for professional services. Please fix Regards A passionate User

Running 11.0b3 on Android 11.

When I open a message I am no longer able to click at the bottom of the message to "Download complete message". This has been happening for a couple of beta releases now. I guess that this is only a problem when using the navigation buttons but although I use gestures on my tablet, I don't like them on my phone.

Thanks

OK, I give up. As far as I know, my settings for TB for Android are the same as TB for Windows. However, I have 1300 emails in the Inbox in TB for Windows (and can search them), but only about 20-30 in TB for android (hopeless for a search). What am i doing wrong?
