Hello,

I don't know what has changed, but Thunderbird deleted older e-mails from both my and my daughter's Inboxes! The messages had not been starred, but they were important and thus saved in special folders (such as TRAVEL CONFIRMATIONS and COLLEGE INFO). Their disappearance has been highly problematic, distressing, frustrating!

Does anyone know WHY this happened and how to FIX/PREVENT it?

We Tried the following fix, but we don't know if this is correct: > [Clicked] Triple Bar > Account Settings > Synchronization & Storage > Disk Space > [Checked] Don't Delete Any Messages > [Checked] Don't Delete Starred Messages.

Incidentally, we saw the the box "Delete Messages Older than 45 days" was Checked, but neither of us had done that! Is this a Default? If so, IT MUST GO! (I had foreign travel confirmations that were ONLY in Inbox and couldn't be confirmed any other way.)

Thank you!

No error message to report. When I search in folders, I can preview the contents of a given message. This is working fine every place except one of my Trash folders. I have three main folders, each of which has a Trash folder within it. Periodically I move all messages from two of those folders to my main Trash folder.

Previewing messages works in all of my folders, including all of the Trash folders EXCEPT for the most important Trash folder. There, every message is displaying alright UNTIL I enter something in the Quick Filter. As soon as I do that, all messages in the folder display blank contents.

Once that happens, even clearing the Quick Filter doesn't return message contents.

I have never seen anything like this. I went to open TB from the taskbar and the only way I can see it is a tiny thumbnail in the upper left corner of my monitor and no way to enlarge it. I closed and reopened several times , no joy. I restarted my desktop, no joy. I managed to arrow to the right from file and got to help. chose the update message. restarted but still same way. If I uninstall it will I lose everything? I was planning to migrate it to my laptop but only going to be home 1 day and afraid to try it. I could use it on Webmail for my trip but I wouldn't have my address book or all of my file folders. H E L P Please.

I can't send emails out of Thunderbird but can receive them, not sure what to do? Is there a phone number I can call with Thunderbird for help? I'm not that savvy with all this.

Dear T-Bird

About Release Versions

On T-Bird I receive an email which contains links. Normally these activate and transfer to the link site when clicked. This no longer works!

This is a pain in the proverbial.

Also with your celebrated Firefox 100 - the links in text don't work either when clicked I have to copy the links and paste to the url box to move to the link site.

Look every thing was working fine 3 days ago - I have done absolutely nothing to my laptop.

I think Mozilla reliability is simply getting worse .

When things are working well - you need more checking before an upgrade .

I was on Beta release last year - my experience with beta was dreadful - cost me 1.5 months of work.

I want to go back to the previous Release version of Firefox and T-bird - how to do this easily.

I am going to shutdown automatic updating as you cannot get things right it seems.

I am a former Netscape user

Best

No nosso ambiente corporativo varios usuários utilizam o e-mail do setor em diferentes estações com a configuração de POP3 e recentemente estamos com loopings de e-mails nas contas impedindo o recebimento de novas mensagens. Algumas mensagens param de dar loop e uma outra mensagem começa a se repetir, assim sucessivamente, porém no web mail essa repetição não ocorre.

Thunderbird asked to compact folders saying it would save hundreds of MBs of disk space, I accidently clicked "compact now" instead of just ignoring it as I usually do. As a result, Thunderbird deleted all mail on my Inbox folder - after restarting Thunderbird, my inbox was empty, I also checked the mail folder on my file explorer and the "Inbox" file (no extension) was just a few KBs, whereas previously to Thunderbird deleting it was several MBs. There were no errors reported during the "compact" process.

I don't think I can recover the mail that Thunderbird deleted because the mail server does not seem to keep mail older than 12 months. One of the reasons I used Thunderbird was to be able to keep a local copy of older emails.

The pop-up I received was the one shown in this article by Mozilla: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/compacting-folders

The article explicitly says "compact" does not delete mail, but then explains that it actually does (by not moving mail "moved or marked as deleted" to the a new file, and deleting the old file). I had no such "marked as deleted" mail. It was just plain read mail on my Inbox folder.

This is an Office 365 POP account. Thunderbird's retention policy for the Inbox folder was to use my (Thunderbird) account's policy, which was to never delete any mail. Alas, when I hit "compact now", Thunderbird deleted all my mail. I was running Thunderbird 91.6.1 on Windows 10.

I tried making a backup of all Thunderbird related folders and deleting the "popstate" file to download all mail from the server again. Mail got downloaded, but not all - as I mentioned, the mail server only returns 12 month worth of email, whereas I had years of mail stored locally. I don't see any way of recovering it... Why would Thunderbird just delete all mail calling it "compact"? Makes no sense...

Hello, The scrolling speed of the different toolboxes in the software became much too fast with the pad on my computer (Zenbook 14"). It didn't do that before the last update. Am I the only one? I lose a lot of time every day with this bug.

Thanks :-)

Hello,

I use Thunderbird for all my email addresses, have for years. Never had an issue until today. I've been offline all weekend and have not received an email to any of my addresses since 04/29, 3 days ago. Is Thunderbird down? If not, how can I fix this?

Thank you

I am using a university email system hosted by google, servers are imap.gmail.com and smtp.gmail.com using university credentials, which involve 2-factor authentication using Duo. It has worked fine for several years, but last night we had a power failure that outlasted my UPS. When I started up Thunderbird this morning, I could not access the account, every attempt threw up a dialog from the University saying "Web Login Service - Stale Request". Clearing cookies and cache was not helpful. I deleted the account, shut down Thunderbird, restarted Thunderbird, and re-created the account. Now I can receive mail, but I still get the same error when I try to send mail. The account works through the gmail browser app, but I find that app to be worse than useless. I have no idea what to try next. Thanks for any help/suggestions.

Whenever I create or "write" am email there is a grey box that shows up at the top. When I troubleshoot it is not there. I have disabled all extensions and addons and it goes not show. I tried it not using Troubleshoot and it is still there.

I have version 91.9.0

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Struggling with TB constantly "downloading" x 10s of thousands of 10s of thousands of emails (all of which are downloaded), and the programme grinding to a halt. Have set the inboxes to a retention policy of 2500 total. So shouldn't even be trying to DL more than that. Seems to mainly manifest when I compose an email (exactly the time that the sluggishness is a problem). Have done the usual compacting/deleting * files.

This is getting to be a real issue now. I wonder if there's any paid support channels that can deal with this?

I am trying to setup support for Thunderbird Autoconfiguration, to make it easier for people to configure the software.

I have read the documentation that I can find, Thunderbird makes a ton of requests to different URLs. I've tried to make it happy buy having as many of the different URL's it is contacting return the info.

https://autoconfig.example.com/mail/config-v1.1.xml?emailaddress=user%40example.com

I can see both from the website & the developer tools, it is getting the config file back. No error in the client, other than to say 'Thunderbird failed to find the settings for your email account'.

My question is, how can I debug the issue? It is clearly getting the config file back, but there must be an issue with the config file that is preventing it from using the data in the file.

System: Windows 10, current version, with current updates.

               Thunderbird 91.9.0 (downloaded and installed on 5/14/22)

I have been unable to send from Gmail accounts for about a month. I can send from my Outlook and GMX accounts just fine, but not from my Gmail accounts.

I have verified all my IMAP settings per the instructions at https://support.google.com/mail/answer/7126229?hl=en

Please see the attachments for error messages.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

All of a sudden I can not use the Bcc to send out mail. A dialog box appears no matter the selection of any address from address book to send to, including myself. See screen shot below.
