Upon reopening Thunderbird mail today, I find that the latest update does not allow emails to be opened in a new window with one-click. Clicking on an email launches the message in a new tab instead of a window. Why create a new issue like this? DUMB . . . please fix.

Hello, After update Thunderbird quick filter became very very slow.

If you type in quick filter field two words. At the beginning is being shown random results not connected with typed in words. Then in 30 seconds or later are being loaded correct results. Not possible to use like this. It's local search on normal PC (with CPU AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 4650G, 24GB RAM) filtering must to work fast. Could you fix that issue?

Thank you

Hi there,

My grandmother on this account keeps receiving a enter primary password alert on her Thunderbird / Bigpond account. We've tried everything and when following the prompts to reset (tools > developer tools > etc) it won't come up with the evaluate button or reset button. We've tried the online sources but no success and she can't access her emails on her desktop. Please let me know what we can do !

I upgraded to Thunderbird 115.10.0 (x64) earlier today and now the program is no longer closing completely (I've tried using the X at the top right of the window, and I've also tried File menu -> Exit). I first discovered this when I was using CCleaner to clean my temporary items and it asked me if I wanted to close Thunderbird after I had already closed it. I then checked my running processes and there are three Thunderbird processes that remain after the program has supposedy closed (Task Manager screenshot attached).

Any help with this seemingly new bug is greatly appreciated!

Much thanks, -Snipe

After updating to the most recent version of Thunderbird, I cannot send email using my address of billward@kc.rr.com. I can send email using my address of billward122@gmail.com. When I click Send, I get this message: "Send message error. Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: billward@kc.rr.com sender rejected. The email address you are sending as must match the email address you used to auth. Please check your SMTP settings. AUP#Out-1500. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again."

All my account settings, including my email address, are the same as they have always been. The problem with not being able to send emails only started a few days ago. I suspect it is related to the latest automatic update to version 115.4.1(32 bit) or to updates just before this one.

How can I get Thunderbird to let me send emails again the address of billward@kc.rr.com? Thank you.

We have had a longstanding intermittent problem that is gradually getting worse. When sending emails the outgoing SMTP sending happens quickly, but there are massive delays in saving the sent message to IMAP folders.

Often it can take well over 1minute to save a message and quite often it does not save at all eventually we get a timeout with the error "Your message has been sent but a copy cannot be saved".

I appreciate there is the option to save to a local folder but it is a real pain to have to use this all the time.

This delays are happening across several different email accounts hosted with more than one ISP and whilst it is an intermittent problem it is occurring more than 50% of the time across multiple PCs.

Note: We use the option "Place replies in the folder of the message being replied to". However, the problem also arises with new outgoing messages that are not replies that would just be saved in the "Sent" folder.

We are using Thunderbird 115.1.1 (64-bit) running on Windows desktop PCs and laptops.

I have contacted the ISPs concerned but they think it is nothing to do with them and suggest it is an issue with Thunderbird.

I see this has been reported by other Thunderbird users, but the help resposes do not seem to offer a definitive solution. If it really is a problem with the ISP's IMAP hosting, please advise how I can gather evidence to convince the ISPs that they have a server problem. Our broadband speed is good and there are no significant delays with any other internet activity. Thanks.

I have 6 email accounts and only 1 is a live.com email. That is the only account that keeps popping up a password error when I open Thunderbird. All settings are same same, full username with @live.com, SSL/TLS,norm pass and so on. Some days no issue grabbing emails ( no password prob ) then starts having issues, and I never changed anything. Any recommendations to resolve?

Just a day or two ago a thunderbird screen pops up when I open my mail and wants me to log into my google account but does not allow me to. Its oversized and does not allow reforming it either. When you click on next it goes to another screen that says ----- GOOGLE 400 That's an error. Then a couple lines later it says --- The server cannot process the request because it is malformed. It should not be retried. That's all we know. --- ( the dashes I added to break up each line)

     So it takes using the ESC key to remove it off the screen, but eventually pops back up. I have to use end task to remove it all together but again when I open mail it returns.  I tried to upload a screen shot to you but it kept giving me an error message.
    I hope you can correct this problem. Yes I did reboot incase it was a computer problem. Thank you for your time and I hope you can fix this matter. I seen in the forum some were having similar issues but did not see my exact problem.

Installed Thunderbird on a new desktop as I have over the years. Worked fine for a while but now I get a Google pop-up on one of my email accounts that requires me to sign in via Google with no way around. How do I get rid of the pop-up? Thank you!

Thanks to anyone who can help.

Recently, a weird problem developed on my Thunderbird. I can delete maybe 7 or 8 emails, and suddenly nothing else will delete. I can press the delete button and nothing happens. The only resolution is closing Thunderbird and reopening.

I have followed these steps: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cannot-delete-messages#:~:text=Close%20Thunderbird.,Select%20the%20Trash%20and%20Trash.

And it did not resolve the problem.

Any other ideas?

1) Login into your Gmail account with a web browser like Firefox. 2) once logged into Gmail and on the home page, click the settings cog wheel and then click the link that says "view all settings" 3) once on setting screen then click "labels" tab 4) once on liable tab screen go to the far right where it says "show in IMAP" click the empty check box so that it has an [x] in it for it to be included as a folder with syncing with Thunderbird 5) on label tab screen move left look for "show on label list" and look under this and click "show" for each folder you want to show in Thinderbird 6) solution complete

Compact Now keeps popping up when I am trying to get other things done. I more often than not just cancel out of it, but it's annoying and distracting and interrupts my flow. At times, I do click on it to perform the compacting task, but them everything comes to a standstill. I can't delete messages, can't move them to other folders, can't answer emails. Nothing. I have large folders full of emails that I have kept from years ago, so it takes it a long time to finish compacting. Meanwhile, I am left stranded, unable to complete the tasks that need to be seen to. Is there any way that I can opt out of getting these compact now pop-ups? I am running Windows 7 Ultimate sp1, with Thunderbird 91.4.0 Thank you!

A specific set of 57 emails from the time period 3/1 to 3/2 keeps coming back into my Inbox after deleting them or moving them to another folder. Any suggestions as to how to fix this problem? Thanks.

I successfully sent my last email on 26Oct21. Ever since,I cannot send email. I get the following message when I try to send: Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because connecting to Outgoing server (SMTP) mail.shaw.ca failed. The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections. Please verify that your Outgoing server (SMTP) settings are correct and try again.

I have tried everything suggested on this forum and other online help sites. One source suggested trying to ping my email server,and that failed as well. I tried temporarily reducing the TLS to 1.1,but that didn't help. I tried temporarily disabling my Windows antivirus and firewall,but that didn't work. I am at a loss on how to proceed,and am planning to take my desktop to a local computer repair shop to see if they can figure it out. Can you suggest anything that might help? Thanks very much!

Lately, I noticed that TB is quite slow at loading messages so I looked up for a solution and found that compacting folders could help a bit. The problem is that when I tried to compact some folders TB started to write hundred of GBs to disk completely filling my ssd and ultimately failing with a 'not enough disk space error'.

I don't think this is supposed to happen. Can I fix my inbox or should I start from scratch?

I just downloaded Thunderbird on my new computer (HATE Windows Mail). I use gmail for my email. My mail DOES get sent out, but DOES NOT save to my SENT ITEMS folder. It starts the process, but cannot finish. It seems to get bogged down and can't complete.. How can I fix this?

I have over 200,000 emails on a gmail account I'm hoping to sync with Thunderbird. My goal is to have them all downloaded onto a local server on my computer so I can refer to them all offline. I've been periodically pressings "get messages" which used to download messages 1000 at a time (I'm not sure why it doesn't continually sync with my inbox!) Though, sometimes it would download 2-3 at a time which was frustrating and fairly futile. Now, it's stopped downloading entirely. How do I keep syncing my inbox?
