Messages that I have moved to Archive have totally vanished. A message which I needed to keep I found in 'deleted'. I then moved it to Archive - and it vanished altogether. I do not feel in control of this new Thunderbird! Please, is there any way of getting this message back?

If IMAP folders have been deleted from the server, my understanding of the expected result is that they would no longer be visible on the client. Instead they display in an italic font. Is there a way to make these ghost folders go away? I've tried Unsubscribe from Deleted Folders (Folders display but no tick box to unsubscribe) Deleting cache directories etc all to no avail.

Am I missing something here?

When I try to send my email I keep getting on screen messages from my old BT account continually asking for new passwords which I keep cancelling but it repeats over and ove again. How can I stop this?

bold text As a message was being sent I tried to save it before the message was completely sent.

When the dust cleared all of my saved messages are gone in all folders and subfolders.

I closed Thuderbird and reopened it. - no saved messages.

I restarted my Macbook Air and opened Thunderbird - no saved messages.

All software was up to date. All other programs seem to be OK.

Now what?

Hello,

As per title, when I step on a new message not belonging to the first thread, the first thread expands automatically. This does not happen when I step on an already read message. I also tried to mark old messages as unread, and the same thing happens. Apparently, it started doing this today, which sounds weird as thunderbird last updated on the 15th, but I didn't notice this type of behaviour before today.

How can I retrieve emails I deleted by selecting wrong parameters in the wrong area. I was in Thunderbird > Acct Settings > Synchronization & Storage and saw "Disk Space" settings. Without thinking I selected --> O ... Delete messages more than [ xxx ] [ ^v ] days old and I changed the number to... [ 90 ] days old. Like an idiot, I for some reason thought I was dealing with messages in "Trash"... go figure. So of course I then noticed in my email Accounts... all messages older than 90 days were removed from all of my folders I had set-up. Many of the folders are now blank, empty of emails that I had moved into the separate folders set-up for different information. I've explored tons of solution responses in "Support" but haven't found a solution to my problem. I really need my older emails back... please help! , Ron.

Hi All,

I have three different email accounts. In my main gmail account, if I double-click on a template, it opens up in a new email with the content of the template already in there (which is how I want it to behave.) In my other two accounts, double-clicking a template just opens a new tab with the contents of the template displayed, as it would if I double-clicked any email in my inbox.

I've been through the settings, comparing them for all three accounts, and I can find no difference anywhere. Right-clicking on the Template folder offers no obvious path to follow, nor does right-clicking on the template itself.

Any ideas why the difference in behavior, and/or suggestions on how to change the not-gmail account so it behaves the same way as the gmail account (double-click opens new pre-filled email) ??

Thanks!!!
