How can I change an IMAP server on an existing T-bird account after T-bird deleted the saved password and IMAP server for that account? I tried to change the IMAP server address for an existing T-bird account, but T-bird and/or my ISP deleted the saved password and IMAP server entry for that account, so T-bird cannot get incoming E-mails. I would like to add an/the IMAP server back to the account without deleting the account, adding all of its settings again, and waiting 6 hours for T-bird to re-download all of the most recent 10,000 messages in the Inbox and all of the 15,000 messages in other folders again. The SMTP server and its saved password are still in the Saved Passwords table.

I am trying to add IdeasDale@zohomail.com to my Thunderbird email. It is set as Incoming – imap -- Port: - 993 Server: - imap.zoho.com Outgoing – smtp –- Port: - 465 Server: - smtp.zoho.com

I recently installed a new computer and can't create a pop3 account. Always gives me this error when i enter my correct password: Component returned failure code: 0x804b000a (NS_ERROR_MALFORMED_URI) [nsIIOService.newURI]Minder tonenComponent returned failure code: 0x804b000a (NS_ERROR_MALFORMED_URI) [nsIIOService.newURI] imap account creation does work.

BUENOS DÍAS, INSTALE EL THUNDERBIRD EN MI LAPTOP, PERO POR ERROR COPIE UNA DIRECCION EQUIVOCADA,, AL INTENTAR ELIMNIARLA NO HE PODIDO POR NINGUN MEDIO, NO ME APARACE LA OPCION "Operaciones sobre la cuenta" SOLO ME SALE UNA VENTANA CON LA OPCION ESTABLECEER COMO PREDETERMINIDA Y ELMINAR PERO AL QUERER HACERLO NO SE ELIMINA.

HE ACUDIDO A NUMEROSOS VIDEOS PERO NINGUNO FUNCIONA, ME SALE UNA VENTANA EN LA PARTTE INFERIOR DERECHA QUE INDICA QUE MOZILLA NO PUEDO CONECTAR CON SERVIDOR.

HE IDO A CONFIGURACION DEL SERVIDOR, HE SEGUIDO TODOS LOS PASOS PERO NO PUEDO ELIMINAR, QUIZAS ESTE HACIENDO ALGO MAL.

YA EJECUTE COMO ADMINITRADOR, VERIFIQUE EL TEMA DE LOS CALENDARIOS Y NADA.

ESPERO QUE ALGUIEN ME PUEDA AYUDAR, QUEDO AGRADECIDO DE ANTEMANO.

I'm trying to remove a couple accounts that I no longer use in Thunderbird. A window keeps popping up asking for a password, but the mail service is no longer available. When I click on the red delete button for that account, nothing happens. I've deleted all the mail in one of them which I was able to do as I thought I might need to do that first, but I still can't delete it after that. The other one won't even let me delete the emails. How do I delete these so I stop getting asked to put in a password for accounts that are no longer valid and I don't want anymore?

My computer crashed and cannot recover anything from it. I cannot remember where my e-mail is. I remembered Yahoo and got my account back in that but cannot remember how to get back into my Thunderbird acccount. I remember my address but that isn't doing me any good without the actual e-mail account.

A hacker got into one of my accounts. All emails to all accounts do not get past the Yahoo and Google servers and I've only been able to restore service through principal account. How can I save my data and correct the compromised settings?

After a keyboard accident I am left with this situation. Lin found the toggle problem with F8. Wxie suggested the password but the password is correct. Thanks to both of them. It seems the problem is the missing M in .com .It might be in the DNS but I don't seem to have anything to try except to try to recreate the account. If I try that I fear I will only exacerbate the situation. I have had this email for many years. This stared 08/08/2026 I have been searching daily for a solution. Like most things digital it is probably a simple fix if you know how. I don't.

I have created an account instance in account settings, and the "Test connection to server" says it is OK, but when I go to the mail tab the get messages button and New Message are grayed out an NO accounts are listed in the "folders" area. Not does it ever ask for my password to the SMTP server I have selected. I have an existing account with my own email service (Hover), and MUST connect to that. This is critical, as I need my e-mail to accomplish necessary activities.

I have installed Thunderbird for email but it was not what I thought it would be. I now want to cancel the account. However, the instructions are to Tools: Account Settings. 2. Select the account you want to remove on the left side. 3. Click the "Account Actions" button on the bottom left and choose, "Remove Account". Here is the problem. "Account Actions does not show"

Installed Thunderbird Setup 153.0.3 and npw when running t-bird get a prompt asking abut a 'thundermail" address. Please advise.. What is "thundermail" and why is it in my way? I am a regular donor to T-bird sent several, emails addressing the "thundermail" weirdness and thus far no reply. .

When selecting which email account to send FROM, the drop down shows a number of old email accounts. These accounts have been deleted. There are no details showing under the "account settings" or "Outgoing server." Which file stores the mail server information and where is it? I currently have around forty different email accounts across five mail servers.

Best regards

Every five minutes Mozilla sends me a page asking for access to my Google account. I click "deny" and it goes away for a few minutes, but comes right back. And while it is on, I can neither send nor receive email. Is there some way to get it to go away and stay away? Thanks, Larry Wright

1) When launched, Thunderbird 140.13 has a pop-up window asking for a Host Gator login. HG has not been used or on this system over 8 years. "cloud80.hostgator.com is requesting your username and password." What would cause this window to appear and How to delete it completely?

2) Also, after the Thunderbird 140.13 installed and re-launched, an email was sent requesting to verify location and login sent from: "accounts at firefox.com". Is this a common request from Mozilla firefox / thunderbird?

I have not being able to add this 4 account to thunderbird: hotmail.co.uk/ live.co.uk/btinternet.com/gmail.com. I keep getting error either cannot connect to server or username and password wrong. I have managed to add two accounts successfully. I don't quiet understand what is happening with this new 153.0.1 version. I has it working before I had to reinstall windows 11 PRO. Could you help me please! Thank you! Best regards, Jairo Goncalves

I recently changed hosting and now I am getting login boxes nonstop to my old servers. I see no way to remove them and this is so annoying I may have to change from thunderbird. All my emails are there, it just keeps checking for old servers.

Thanks in advance!
