Win10/64-22H2 New installation of TB.

Attempting to create an email account in Set-up Your Existing Email Address. After entering the email information and clicking "Continue" the IMAP data popup showed correct information with the "Configuration found at email provider". Clicking "Done" causes a loop on "Checking password". Attempting to "Configure Manually" and Clicking on "Done" gives me an "Incoming server already exists." message.

The only option I have is to cancel the configuration and start over. I have done this several times.

Issue 1385895: Checking Password loop Issue 1380451: Incoming server already exists message

All contacts - email addresses- have disappeared - perhaps the compact request I received a day or 2 ago could have caused this??? Jerry Erickson jerry.erickson@midstatesd.net

Hi!

What is the way to tell thunderbird to index IMAP folders in global-messages-db.sqlite which are not stored locally?

And a more generally, how does this part work, message indexing and remote IMAP folders not stored locally? Here, after removing the database, thunderbird indexed only some very limited set of IMAP folders in the Gloda, but not all of the folders, despite all are checked for "Include in global search". Or maybe it didn't even index whole folders, - I can't say for sure.

Thanks,

The folder "popstate-1.dat" appeared under my email account below Inbox, Drafts, Sent, Archives, Junk and Trash. I have attached an image showing the folder located below Trash and above Local Folders.

Can it be deleted? Is it serving a purpose?

I recently deleted old messages from the various Local Folders folders.

Thank you.

I can receive mails - but not send mails An error occurred while sending mail: Outgoing server (SMTP) error. The server responded: Service unavailable. Client host 80.208.65.43 rejected for spamming issues. Client Address 80.208.65.43 block for spam incident; http://www.spamhaus.org/query/bl?ip=80.208.65.43 Service unavailable.

Cannot receive or send emails via Thunderbird account. Window popping up stating IP Address Temporarily Blacklisted. This happened once before (about 5 months ago) and it corrected itself after 10 days of being down. The last email received on laptop was May 22nd, 2024. Last email received via Droid phone was yesterday, June 8th, 2024. Have tried a reset of modem and router. Have had this email account with Thunderbird for over 10 years. After reading the Community comments, it's unclear whether it's a server issue, a Comcast issue, or a Thunderbird issue. Please help get my IP Address UN-Blacklisted... again.

Thunderbird. When I move an email it does not go to the new folder, it disappears. Ctrl-Z (in the same session, only) will bring the message back.

This is a serious and fundamental problem for an email reader. And there is no direct channel for getting help with such a fundamental problem.

The messages are not misfiled, they do indeed disappear. Thunderbird 115.11.1 (64-bit) on Windows 11 Pro 10.0.22631. OUTLOOK does not do this with the same mail accounts.

In new Windows 11 I created a Folder named General. In there I placed non urgent received e. mails.

Now I cannot find it.  It used to be in the small window left hand side where folders such as Bin, Scams, Sent are. (Been through also Application Basics where my profile is.)   Thanks for any help.

Is there a way to play a certain continuous tone when an incoming mail from a certain sender (e.g. xyz@example.com or just @example.com) comes in? That would be an extremely useful function, e.g. if you are waiting for particularly important and urgent mails and, for example, want to be woken up in the night when this particular important mail arrives.

I used to use Thunderbird exclusively, but GoDaddy dumped my three main mailboxes into Exchange Server; even with Owl, Tbird could only be used for one of them, so I was forced into Outlook for those accounts. But I kept Thunderbird to use with the non-GoDaddy mailboxes. However. I did not remove the GoDaddy accounts from Thunderbird, as I was busy. Now, when I click the Thunderbird icon on my taskbar, Outlook comes up instead. Ditto when I enter Thunderbird on the start menu! It's not even my normal Outlook, which has my main three mailboxes. but an Outlook that shows only the least-used of the three. How do I get Thunderbird back? And when I do, how do I delete those three mailboxes from it?

I think that I need to completely uninstall TB Something went wrong on one of my computers, and it couldn't connect to the server. It works on my other computer.

I decided to uninstall TB that had the problem. I did that, but when I reinstalled it, it had all of the same settings and problems. I used RevoUnstaller. because it said When I reinstalled it, all of the stuff and the problem were back.

What is the best way to fix this?

I have been successfully accessing my icloud account with thunderbird on Windows 10 for years and then on Tuesday (June 4th) it went weird. All I am left with is thunderbird's cached inbox e-mails. If I try to update the list of new e-mails, it just sits there with no errors reported. If I try to read some cached e-mails I can see the full text. (I am setup to always read plain text), but for some, I just get whitespace. I see "myname@icloud.com connected to imap.mail.me.com..." on the status line for most folders, but some just clear that status message.

I am not receiving emails and when I try to send an email I get a warning "Sending of the message failed.Peer’s Certificate issuer is not recognized.The configuration related to smtp.themessagingco.com.au must be corrected" I have made sure that the account information for incoming and outgoing mail is correct, but that is the limit of my understanding of what I can do. How can I correct this problem?

My service provider is QX.net which uses Magic Mail web email. I have Firefox 115.ll, 64 bit. I have Thunderbird 115.11.1, 32 bit.

The Magic Mail on my Server shows 253 unread messages. I have identified some of those 253 messages in my Thunderbird folder and they have been read, and are shown as read in Thunderbird. There seem to be 3 different dates involved. This is a concern as it is unacceptable not to receive all of my messages.

Please advise what I can do to address this so that I receive all my messages and so that when I have read them they are shown as "read" in Thunderbird and in Magic Mail.

Thank you so very much for any help.

Hi. I have 3 e-mails. recently I could not receive on another e-mail. I called my cable tech. he said that thunderbird hadupdated and some users had problems. He had me change my port to 578. I did and now the same e-mail will send but not receive. so three of my e-mails will send and only 2 will receive. I am very ignorant with computer use. I use a flip phone for travel. thanks dan

I am running 115.4.1 (64-bit). I noticed fairly recently that my main gmail account is not downloading the latest emails. I went to "Help", "About Thunderbird" and got the following error:

Update failed. Updates available at https://www.thunderbird.net/

I'm including a screen capture of the error.

Am I supposed to simply download the version at "https://www.thunderbird.net/" and then run that?

Thanks for any help.

HI

Outh2 Saved Password entries is being removed automatically after few months in password manager. It is asking again to Re-Authenticate. After authentication, It is getting removed again after few months. Please help.

I have a notification set so that I know when I've gotten new email. In the last month or so, AFTER I've closed Thunderbird, I still occasionally hear the notification that I've received new mail. How can that be when I've logged off and closed TB? What is causing this?

Thanks for any info/help.
