How do I import Apple mbox's from Apple Mail to Thunderbird. The explanation provided makes no sense. Where do you find this profile folder? How do you import if Thunderbird is closed?

I can't use version 10 until I can turn off threading. My correspondents are forever using the same reply for a variety of subjects without changing the title. I've hollered at them but they don't change. I can't use threading!!

I have been a Thunderbird user since 2004 and have been very satisfied with its performance. However yesterday something went wrong, at least i belief so.

Yesterday, October 5, 2022, i downloaded the Thunderbird update on Linux. After the automatic installation i lost all my files and folders. The accounts still exist and folders. I can view accounts and folders names in 'Go/Folders', but if i click the names nothing happens. How do I view my files or recover my files?

Thanks a lot in advance for your assistance Hans Schaap [email removed from public]

Since the upgrade to v102.3.2, only my 'Collected Address Book' is linked to the Recipient field when composing an email. The settings are unaltered, with Local Address Books selected. How do I restore the link to my Main Address Book, that includes all other Books in Thunderbird?

Hello,

I did a clean install windows 11 21H2, installed Thunderbird 102.1.1 and later 102.1.2 in the wizard i copyed my password and all the other info imap, after pressing ready checking password keeps on checking noting happens.

My password is correct and also all the other setting.

Must be a bug in the program.

How does one insert a hyperlink (website or perhaps an email address) in a Thunderbird email? I have scoured the help files and find no reference to this. I have tried several ways to do this, and nothing works. The "insert" menu button allegedly lets you type an address into a box that makes the linked word in the email turn blue and underlined, but it is connected to nothing. Can't believe TBird is the only email program in the world that doesn't create links for you.

I can see how to export my Thunderbird PROFILE but not how to export just my address book. I need to import my address book into my wife's Thunderbird address book. Exporting just the address book does not seem to be an option at all... Or is it?

1 - An email comes to me from sender@noname.com Can I block above by using

• @noname.com

or @noname.com or contains noname.com

2 - I am given a choice to mark as spam or delete. I would like to delete and not see chosen email anywhere except maybe in filtered folder. Is that possible? Thanks

I use Thunderbird and have a church email address running on MS Exchange. MS are telling me that because I use IMAP and ACTIVSYNC these will be switched of soon and my Exchange email will stop working. They are saying I should move to Outlook. I have no intention of doing this. What do I do? Thanks.

Ever since automatically upgrading to 91.2.0 when I save an email Thunderbird adds a lengthy string of data to the end of the filename which causes me great difficulty. Here is an example from an email from the NYTimes: "Today's Headlines Key to Biden’s Climate Agenda Likely to Be Cut Because of Manchin Opposition" is the filename. Thunderbird automatically adds the following to it. " - The New York Times (nytdirect@nytimes.com) - 2021-10-16 0101"

This information lengthens the filename which I have to delete because it messes up my archive where I save numerous emails. Therefore I have to delete it every time I save an email (60 or more times every day) and interferes with any search I conduct of those saved emails.

I have explored all the options under Tools and Help to no avail. Can you please tell me how I can get rid of this annoyance. It is causing me lost time in my daily work creating an archive of articles. I've been working on this archive for nearly 18 years and this problem is causing me a great deal of grief and lost work time. Thank you.

Recently tried upgrading from 91.x.x -> 102.x.x. Everything seems to go fine, with one critical show-stopping problem -- any attempt to connect to outlook.office365.com fails. Completely.

Under 91.x.x, I use POP as server type, server name is outlook.office365/com, SSL/TLS, and OAuth2 for connection and authentication security, respectively. Set up this way, port defaults to 995. Works *perfectly* under 91.x.x.

But, using the *exact* same setting under TBird 102, absolutely refuses to connect. At all.

Any suggestions as to what to look for?

I just noticed that the 'Sent Items" folder on one of my accounts in Thunderbird has gone missing. The folder and all messages are still on the outlook.office365.com server when I go to the web mail page. How do I force Thunderbird to recreate the folder and re-download messages from the server?

For what it's worth, my other Office 365 based account in Thunderbird is just fine. No issues.

Thunderbird 102.4.1 on Windows 10.

Thanks.

My primary calendar is on Google Calendar. My primary email is on Thunderbird. Sometimes people will send me a calendar invite to my T'bird email, and if I click on an option in the invite to link it to my calendar it ends up on a T'bird calendar that I almost never look at. Is there some way to link the T'bird calendar to the Google calendar so they will share entries and I can see everything from the T'bird calendar on my Google calendar?
