I started using Netscape Email in 1996. Moved to Tbird. I have archived emails by year going back to 1996 on my old desktop PC (Win 10). I bought a new PC (Win 11) and installed Tbird. I entered my email account info into Tbird and started receiving emails. I then followed the instructions for moving the Tbird emails from the old computer to the new. (I went to Troubleshooting Info on the old computer, opened the Profile Folder, went up to the Thunderbird folder, copied it to an external hard drive, and pasted it in the same place on the new computer.)

I opened Tbird, the archives folders do not show up. I looked in the Profile Folder, and I have three profiles. (I tried pasting twice.) A picture is attached. The old computer only shows the top one (59t8...).

How do I get my archived folders back, or how do I have Tbird on the new computer use the profile on the old one?

Thanks, - Andy

HI I have many folders in my inbox on TB and some I don't want loaded each time I open TB (they are old files that I don't need day to day but may need sometime) What is the best way to take these off TB whilst being able to import them to TB if I need them later. Thanks. Mark

On 29 Nov 2024, TBird stopped downloading all emails from all my accounts. I have not changed anything on the computer and have run all the troubleshooting routines I can find for TBird. Still not working. Interestingly, when Better Bird import the settings from TBird, it exhibited the same issues. Any suggestions?

TIA

I have been using Thunderbird for many, many years now and been happy with it.

However last 6 months or so, it has been constantly crashing, often several times a day. Crash reports almost never get sent as it says there is a technical error.

Using a HP Spectre 360 (7 years old) with Windows 10. All windows updates have been applied, and constantly virus checked etc. No other programs giving me grief like Thunderbird which is the most important program. Before Thunderbird I used Eudora which was also great. Always regretted changing to Thunderbird.

I am now over it and Thunderbird. How do I transfer all my emails, attachments etc going back 10-12 years or so to a new email program.

Any suggestions regarding a better email client. Don't want to use Outlook. Have been looking at Proton Mail.

It seems that ever since my Thunderbird auto-updated to 128.5.1, sending messages with attachments is VERY slow. I just sent a client an email with a 6.9 MB attachment and it took over 2 minutes to send. A few weeks ago, that would have gotten sent in seconds. I tried cleaning out my Inbox and Sent box by moving most of the messages to local folders, but no change. Any thoughts? Anyone else having this issue?

I've been using Thunderbird for a very long time, supporting it's development with modest contribution. Until recently everything went smoothly when sending a message (I use 2 email accounts). However since a couple of weeks, there seems to be a delay when ever I send an email. Usually I was able to send a mail and keep working through my other mails. But this seems not to be the case anymore; Once I've clicked on sent (which is instant) I wanna to work/read other emails a message appears (TB does not reply anymore) and then only 5 seconds later I can keep scrooling through my list. It's strange. Any idea where this comes from. Many thanks for your answers. Stefan

Hi team,

I am battling problems snoozing & dismissing notifications for my Calendars in Thunderbird.

In the console I am seeing lots of: `Calendar: Could not find definition for AUS Eastern Standard Time`

How does Thunderbird define timezones, and where can I correct this?

I am running 128.5.1esr and my calendar is Radicale 3.0.6.

Thanks!

Hello, Since the Oauth2 security from Microsoft, I can't send messages anymore from thunderbird with an outlook adress (but I can receive messages after following instructions) I followed rigourously the instructions from Microsoft and Thunderbird on this two pages : https://support.microsoft.com/fr-fr/office/param%C3%A8tres-pop-imap-et-smtp-pour-outlook-com-d088b986-291d-42b8-9564-9c414e2aa040 https://support.mozilla.org/fr/kb/microsoft-oauth-authentification-thunderbird (These are pages in french because I'm French hence my poor english (sorry for that)) And tried every solution (for instance, the smtp server advised is not the same for Microsoft and Thunderbird, of course I tried both many times)

Thanks for your answers Michel

Bonjour Les messages ne s'affichent pas en mode 'normal' Je dois me mettre en mode 'DEPANNAGE' pour les afficher ?

pouvez vous m'aider Merci

Version thunderbird 128.5.0esr 32 bits

I use Thunderbird 128.2.0esr (64-bit) to read mail from the Outlook server; these are the folder mappings:

imap://<email>@outlook.office365.com/INBOX imap://<email>@outlook.office365.com/Sent imap://<email>@outlook.office365.com/Drafts imap://<email>@outlook.office365.com/Trash

I used to also be able to read the Junk Email folder from the Ourlook server the same way, but the folder disappeared from my Thunderbird a couple of months ago. I tried re-adding it as a sub-folder, which is how I created it in the first place, but it won't appear on the list.

I'm not sure what else to do here. I don't know where the Thunderbird directories are stored locally any more, I'm using Ubintu 24.04.

I cannot access my "Trash" folder in my email. I get the "thunderbird is not responding". I've tried over a dozen times closing the program, and rebooting multiple of times. My wife's thunderbird email account is normal.

How do I fix Thunderbird when I can't find my files of messages, and Thunderbird can't find any messages. Yes I refreshed my account information. all this happened with this last update.

Could not connect to mail server imap.gmail.com; the connection was refused.

An error occurred during a connection to live.thunderbird.net. PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR

Error code: PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR
