Thunderbird Community Forum

Good morning; while trying to configure Thunderbird, I accidentally disabled the shortcut buttons I always use. Unfortunately, I can't find the location in the settings where I can re-enable them. I've attached a screenshot. I'd appreciate your help and pointing me to the right place. Regards.

I have a TB installation reading mail from a webmail set up. The files are in an inbox, 26,000 plus. They have also been transferred and readable in TB. They have the following format. Subject: [xxxxxxxxxx & yyyyyyyyyyyy zzzzzz ] New User Registration

Body text -

New user registration on your site xxxxxxxxxx & yyyyyyyyyyyy zzzzzz :

Username: selected_nickname9481

Email: username@provider.com

How can I extract or retrieve the "Username:" variables and "Email" variables in the Body text to set up a mailing list or Address Book. Thanks!

One of my two outlook email accounts no longer appears in Thunderbird, which says it is authenticated but not connected. This happened suddenly. I can still get the messages by going onto outlook.com. How do I get it back on Thunderbird?

My folders used to show a yellow diamond when there was new email in the folder. The folder colour does still change to blue to indicate unread email. When I open a folder, the yellow diamond still shows up on new email, as well as the unread flag. What have I done? How do I configure Thunderbird to show that yellow diamond on folders with new email?

Hi,

I configured my account using the server's IMAP service. Every time I open Thunderbird, it asks me for the password of the calendar service of that IMAP service. But it doesn't have a calendar service. Even if it has, I don't want to use it.

I looked everywhere in the settings page, but could not find a way to disable it.

Why the app keeps asking me for the calendar service's password and how to disable it?

Thanks.

My company uses your email software and everyones email is not working. For example, my email (madison.l@valleyhha.com) does not allow me to send messages without an error popping up (Your message was sent but a copy was not placed in your sent folder (Sent) due to network or file access errors. You can retry or save the message locally to Local Folders/Sent-madison.l@valleyhha.com.)

This goes for my entire staff of 20 people. Same error, also all my unread messaged in my inbox have now disappeared. Not only that but we are also not receiving any new emails either

I have created a new gmail address for my wife. Would like to add this address to my existing Thunderbird Mail account so that her emails also come to my Thunderbird email account. Not sure how to add her address to do this.. Thanks

I have the Thunderbird desktop installed on windows 10 computers that are blocked from any internet browsing. I am not able to find instructions on how to share calendars between computers.

I am able to export and import calendars between computers, but the events only show up in the side bar as tasks. We want to be able to edit the shared calendar from any computer.

seem to have a problem with OAuth2 and my aol accounts in thunderbird. can't send or receive emails to/from my aol account on thunderbird. this seems to have something to do with change to OAuth2.

When I search for a name in Thunderbird mail e.g Lennart, nothing from 2026 comes up, only older mails from 2025-12-31 and backwards. if I search on his e-mailadress, e.g l.name@ppost.se it finds avery mail. What is wrong?

For some time now my primary email address gets wiped clean every night and is empty every morning. I have to transfer received mail to another input address to keep it safe!

I send out golf group e-mails. I have myself (e-mail address) in the group, so it will also come back to me. The server keeps rejecting my group e-mails because it says my e-mail address is incorrect, I have checked it several times and it is correct. I even edited it to be sure. Why is the server still rejecting it?

Thanks for your time....Paul Smart psmart@triad.rr.com
