I have received this from Google and wondering if you are aware of it and plan to make Thunderbird compliant?

I've been using Outlook 2010 for a long time. One feature it has that has been extremely useful is being able to open and close individual pst files. This allows me, for example, to have an archive on NAS of old emails. I only open the archive if I'm looking for something specific (File --> Open --> Open Outlook Data File), and then close the archive. The archive is large, and opening it every time Outlook starts is a waste of time.

I don't initially see how, in Thunderbird 91.8.1, to do something similar.

Any help would be appreciated.

I currently use the Gmail (smtp.gmail.com) outgoing mail server in Thunderbird. Google has notified us that as of May 30, 2022 it will no longer be supporting less secure sign in which I am currently using for the Outgoing Mail Server for Thunderbird.

I don't want to wait until May 30 to find out I can't send e-mails. Do you have any suggestions for a suitable free alternative? I am just using this for personal e-mails and don't require large mailing lists, etc.

Thanks, Paul

I just installed Thunderbird 91.8.1 and would like to migrate pst files generated by Outlook 2010.

It somewhat works - if I do "Tools --> Import --> Mail --> Next" and select Outlook, Thunderbird starts importing apparently all the pst files that are present on the PC, without allowing which ones to import to be explicitly specified.

Is there a way to specify which specific pst files are to be imported?

Thunderbird Ver 91.8.1. on Win 10. How to delete an email account please? The "Account Actions" box does not seem to exist in this version; I wondered how to delete an email account? I've tried everything I can think of. Thanks a lot HR

Good Evening, I had to reinstall Windows 10. My computer repairman installed Thunderbird along with much of my software. Since the reinstall I cannot Upgrade to Thunderbird 91.8.1. The auto update fails and the re-install does not upgrade to the new version. I have downloaded the new version many times and it still stays with the old version after the re-install. A couple times Thunderbird said I had the new version after I re-installed Thunderbird, but after restarting Thunderbird it goes back to the old (91.7.0) version.

Should I delete Thunderbird before I try to install? If I do will I loose all of my E-mail and folder information?

I would appreciate any advice. Thank you, Terry Prather [removed email from public]

thunderbird 91.9.1 in Win 10 Uninstall & reinstall I have a issue with in-coming emails, as they load they go from BOLD to marked as read. I have tried everything I can think of. If I delete Thunderbird (using windows "Uninstall") and install a fresh copy will my setting stay? Barry

I am using TB under Ubuntu 22.04 ONLY because Gnome Evolution is requiring OAuth2 for IMAPX accounts that don't provide such authorization. TB and Outlook 365 (under Win 10) don't have that problem.

TB has a major, major problem in that it will not keep constant font, font-size, and line-spacing when I write or reply to emails. Why can't TB hold an exact font size (e.g., Arial 11). and line spacing (single) when I compose or reply to emails. I have seven (7) email accounts and I should not have to worry about having to set properties for each.

I use Google Workspace as my e-mail provider, and Thunderbird (PoP3 -- there is a good reason why I use PoP and not IMAP) as my e-mail client. This has worked very well for a long time. Yesterday (4/12/22) updated TB from 91.7.0 to 91.8.0. Previously, I would enter my Google Workspace password (only, once per session) to download mail, and my gmail password (only, once per session) to send mail (using Google's SMTP server). After the update, I was asked for both username and password to log into the Google Workspace account, and every time I sent an e-mail I had to provide both username and password for the gmail account. Fortunately, I had set a restore point before the TB update and was able to restore my system to its normal operation. Can you please help me with what is going on, and how to get back to normal operation under the new update? Thank you!

I'm running Windows 10 Pro 10.0.19044 build 19044 (21H2)

This is a THUNDERBIRD Problem. When the same message is sent from the same from/to accounts using Outlook 365, Version 2203 (Build 15028.20228 Click-to-Run) the problem does not occur.

When switching on Thunderbird 91.8.1 (64bit) today, it immediately downloaded mail from my IMAP account followed by the message "Server not found - start.thunderbird.net could not be found. Please check the name and try again. Check typing errors / network connection / firewall / proxy etc." Selecting 'Try again' simply opened the 'Welcome' overlay leaving the client operating as before.

This is a first as far as I can remember. But in the midst of the other more problematical events that have been occurring, (see my previous question, recently updated discussing possible Settings errors retained in the Profile): 'Exporting folders with ImportExportTools NG' https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1373167

Can anyone suggest if there is any link between these events - and confirm a solution that would clean or replace the profile but leave (or restore) the messages and folders unchanged ?

I have two email accounts that I access via Thunderbird v91.8.1 (64 bit): -

1. Gmail, which is set up to use Gmail's OAuth2 and works fine and, 2. Zoho mail, which currently uses Username and 'Normal password' authentication, which also works fine. For now.

If Zoho mail stops supporting username/password and tightens their security to use MFA (as they are likely to, like Gmail has) then their equivalent to OAuth2 is their own 'OneAuth' and Thunderbird does not seem to support this at this time.

If this happens then I will no longer be able to use TB to access my Zoho emails so can you tell me if TB is intending to support zoho's OneAuth as well as Gmail's OAuth2 and when we may expect this to happen?

Thank you

Wish to add extra email address - Errors - Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong config, username or password. Click on IMAP Did not work Click on POP3 Did not work

Double checked - Name, email address and password by coping them and then pasting them in the boxes. I have one email working from the same supplier. incoming Host outlook.office365.com POP3 Port 995 outgoing Host smtp.office365.com Port 587 IMAP Port 993

Today, I am very dissapointed to report, I will be leaving Thunderbird after 20 years... Because it does not work with Microsoft Exchange Server. I am soooo dissapointed!

Incredibly, Thunderbird will not save a login password even though the box is checked. Not only that, a sign in with Google screen keeps popping up every two or three minutes. What the blankety-blank is wrong? How can this email client, so many years in development, behave so stupidly? I've checked various links from Mozilla and others, but none of the so-called solutions actually work. I need to know:

1. How can I convince Thunderbird to save my login passwords?

2. How can I stop the sign in with Google screen from constantly reappearing?

I have been marking emails from a specific account (local councilor in a city I lived in until three years ago), and still the emails get through. I have installed 78.11.0 (64-bit). I would have thought by now that three years of "mark as junk" would have got the message through to the junk filters; that Thunderbird would, by now, have learned something. Is there a hard and heavy hammer that can be used to state finally that any and all email from "Krzstzyn Wzng-Tzm <rzdzng@tcndp.cz>" is Junk? Thanks Chris Greaves

Hello, I've just set up Thunderbird on my IMac OS Monterey version 12.2.1 and have synchronized my gmail account. However not all folders have migrated. What is causing this and how can I fix it? Thanks!

I upgraded from Thunderbird 52 to version 91. Even though all the account settings appear to be correct, I can neither send nor receive mail. What the -- is wrong?

I appreciate that Thunderbird has client-side adaptive Junk filtering. I believe the target audience for this is primarily those who don't filter their own mail. Unfortunately for those of us who do filter our mail, this feature takes priority over other filtering.

Specifically, I'm using Sieve (IMAP/Dovecot) on the server to control filtering, but as soon as mail hits the Thunderbird client it's re-processed. I don't mind if my filters ultimately don't filter some mail item, where it ends-up in the Inbox. Then Thunderbird adaptive filtering may help "adaptively" to flag something that gets through.

Can we do something in Thunderbird to only allow adaptive processing on the top-level Inbox?

As an admin I have just created scripts that will forward mail to me when another user manually moves mail to Junk. This email is dropped into a specific folder under my Inbox so that I can process it with new rules, bans, or even to let the user know that they should simply unsubscribe from that specific list. But most of it is indeed Junk. I don't need adaptive processing to identify it as such, and I don't want my email account profile to adapt to someone else's Junk.

I can set a header for Thunderbird if it would only use that as a "do not use adaptive filtering on this item".

Is there a developer API into this process? Anything else to hook into it to get more control over it?

OR, do I and every other user that uses this server need to turn off Thunderbird adaptive filtering? :(

Thanks.
