Thunderbird Community Forum

So I have a couple of accounts that do this and not on others (Same domain and server) When the messages come through they are doubled like they are on a thread, but the same exact message. All settings in Thunderbird and the server email config are the same for all addresses,. I have three out of ten that do this for some odd reason.

mail.ru and vk.com (a russian messenger app) recently decided to cooperate closely. On Linux desktop trying to use webmail (using firefox), I have to solve a captcha everytime (extremely difficult, since there is a slider to move until you see distinct Russian words.Btw. I know Russian, but I struggle).

On android however, it's easy: There is a mail.ru app in the playstore, working very well.

I don't want to use mail.u on android, since typing on android is cumbersome.

Hi I am new to Thunderbird -previously used gmail. I have installed Thunderbird and it recieves mails as it should, but the mails only stay in the inbox for short time and then disappears ?

If I read the mail then I can find it in read mails, but the mails also disappears from that folder?

Must be a setting problem, but cannot figure it out.

Please help

Hi there.

For some reason, 3 of 4 accounts I use no longer open on the accounts list. I cannot expand them, I cannot "Get Messages" for them, there's no reaction whatsoever, as in no message in status bar (which works fine, as confirmed with that 1/4 account that still works).

I checked for subscribed folders and all of them are. I even was able to add a new folder, which does get added via IMAP. This is, therefore, not a connectivity issue.

I also checked the Developer Console and Activity Tasks, absolutely nothing shows there.

I removed global-messages-db.sqlite, folderTree.sjon, the .msf files. I checked in Troubleshoot mode. Nothing helps.

This looks like some nasty bug and I am happy to help debugging this further, if you point me in the right direction.

Hi,

I have been trying to investigate why, in my Yahoo email logs I am getting logins from Virtual Gecko.

Until I started investigating this I had never heard of Virtual Gecko. I certainly have never installed it. The logins are coming from the same device as my web browser login to Yahoo, so it is something on my device, at least it is according to their logs.

The only software on my machine that logs into Yahoo is Thunderbird. And their logs have never shown those logins; but I do get emails about them. Is there any chance Yahoo! is mistaking Thunderbird for Virtual Gecko?

I tried closing Thunderbird and signing out the Virtual Gecko the connection from within Yahoo! and then signing into Thunderbird. That tests seems to indicate be causing an event in the currently logged in devices on Yahoo. At least not immediately.

Not that appears to be your problem but do you have any clues as to what is going on?

I will raise this with Yahoo! and if it follows my previous experience of their support, they will charge me for the privilege of not solving my problem.

Apparently MS has changed something in their OAuth2 and Thunderbird has yet to catch up. I've seen several other questions regarding this, but no workable solutions, just silly replies. Is TB actively working on a solution or am I now forced to install Outlook?

lorsque j'envoie un mail par mon compte aol, celui ci figure aussi sur les messages envoyés gmail. Je souhaite qu'ils ne paraissent que sur la messagerie d'envoi d origine comment y remédier ?

I am using the latest version of Thunderbird 148.0 on a MacBook Air with latest OS Tahoe 26.3.

Yesterday I was unable to receive messages via Thunderbird app but could log in to my provider and view the messages on webmail. Checked my account configuration and changed the port to 110 which seemed to fix the problem.

However, this morning I again cannot receive emails but I can send them. When I click on Get Messages, the bottom pane which normally shows the app contacting the server and downloading messages instead only shows the blue 'thinking' line (sorry, don't know what proper terminology for this is) for a few seconds then stops.

When I go to Server settings for incoming and check connection to server it is fine.

Any ideas why this is happening?

I cant receive emails only send them. I receive an error message when starting Thunderbird "the current operation on inbox <my email address> did not succeed"

Using Firefox on my Win10-Pro PC and TBird as my e-mail client, I need really simple instructions on two installation issues:

1) Will TBird let me install TBird in the disk partition of my choice (where Firefox is presently installed) and

2) Can TBird be set up to BOTH let me simultaneously download all e-mail documents to my local PC while letting the e-mail documents remain on the e-mail server (where they are now)?

Please keep the guidance simple and easy to follow as I don't see well reading from a display screen any more and as I have never understood the complexities of Win10-Pro at all well. I go back to IBM PC One days and MS-DOS and understood Win7-Pro fairly well but Win10-Pro simply confuses me because of its many buried options. Thanks, in advance, for guidance, instructions, etc.

Thunderbird email send stopped working something like three weeks ago. I am using Fedora 43. What happened to cause this send problem? I had been using Thunderbird for a very long time with no problems. I am using Mozilla Thunderbird 147.0

Es bestehen 3 E-Mailadressen (Konten), Nachrichten werden immer in allen 3 Konten angezeigt und gespeichert, wie kann die Zuordnung geändert werden so das Nachrichten nur in den angesprochenen Adressen angezeigt und gespeichert werden?

I goofed up today by making a stupid change to one of my manual message filters and running it which added a tag to very many emails according to the filter log. I didn't know how to undo that directly so I figured I would just restore my profile from a backup. So I closed Thunderbird and restored my entire profile folder from a backup of 1 or 2 days ago. Upon reopening Thunderbird, naturally all emails from the last day or two were gone but I assumed they would just re-download. They didn't. I only got 1 or 2 very new emails.

I vaguely recall doing this sort of restore, or go back a couple days, to recover from another mess up and it did re-download the missing couple days.
