Thunderbird-Hilfeforum

Thunderbird keeps asking for my password and password manager doesn't remember it. Each time I try to look at or respond to messages, it asks for my password --- I check the password manager box to remember it but it doesn't.

Should I delete thunderbird and then install a 2020 version where this was not a problem or is there a way to solve the problem with the latest current version

Peace, Alan

I want to single space my out going messages. I changed the paragraph setting from body text to paragraph format, this temporarily fixed it but it went back to double spacing

Scenario: I have two E-Mails configured in thunderbird. For simplicity, let's assume they are: `alice@gmail.com` and `bob@cock.li` .

I have configured both via SMTP, and they are *totally different* SMTP servers (Gmail vs. cock.li)

If I compose a message from "alice@gmail.com" to "bob@cock.li", then when I reply from Bob's inbox in Thunderbird, everything is OK.

However, if I compose a message from "alice@gmail.com" to "bob.extra@cock.li", using the `.` alias feature of cock.li, then although Bob gets the message in his inbox, clicking "Reply" will actually set "From" as "alice@gmail.com" and "To" as "bob.extra@cock.li" !

To be very clear: this happens when clicking reply in Bob's inbox in Thunderbird.

I think this is a Thunderbird issue because:

• It happens even if I compose the E-Mail from Alice's webmail (i.e. Browser) (Note: Alice still exists in Thunderbird)
• It DOES NOT happen if Alice DOES NOT exist in Thunderbird
• It DOES NOT happen if I try and reply as Bob via cock.li's webmail (i.e. Browser)

My guess is somehow when Thunderbird sees both Alice and Bob as valid accounts in Thunderbird, but the recipient was an aliased version of Bob, it somehow gets confused.

Here are example received headers for an actual demo I tried. (poiasd@saxrag.com is main E-Mail, abuse@saxrag.com is an alias. poiasdpoiasd@cock.li is the sender)

Question about Thunderbird 115.4.1 and Gmail. In the "All Mail" folder... I delete messages - but only to see them still there the next day. I tried empty trash as well as compact folder and expunge - but I clearly am doing something wrong. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong and help me?! I also tried both moving to trash folder in different directory as well as "delete immediately" in Account settings.

I sent a message a while back about slowness with 115, which I had to download because I had a crash.

There were various suggestions, but no solutions to the excessive slowness with 115. This culminated to day in a long 'no reply' mail which suggested the issue might be the virus checker.....

I checked again the various messages about 115 - most were archived, only one month since they were posted!!

Is there an issue with 115?? I saw a thread which asked was I having issues with it, my answer is yes, is there nobody out there with a suggestion??

I have set up a number of Message Filters to automatically run when new email is recieved. None of the run automatically on new email. This is frustrating on it own however I can’t even run them manually on individual filters for the inbox. I have recently moved to Thunderbird for my primary mail client from Mac Mail and definitely like it better, but filters not working and working perfectly in Mac Mail makes it difficult to switch over completely.

I downloaded an update to my email. And it screwed it all up. I'm sick of going to my web mail to send out new messages, whenever someone e-mails me. My Thunderbird receives the e-mail's, but won't send them out? I haven't changed anything on the settings. Right now they are set to... and I've included a picture of my updates. Thank you.

Hi all,

I'm using thunderbird on a macbook pro (sonoma 14.2.1).

I had to reinstall one of my email accounts on Thunderbird. After reinstalling it, I had lost all my emails and folders on Thunderbird. The good news is that I could find these files on my hard drive.

I successfully imported the folders but I can't import my emails again. These are saved in a Mozeml format. I have tried to import them - with the add-on ImportExportTools NG - copy-pasting the emails directly on the new account in the Finder

But non of these two options work and I thus only have access to the emails since the reinstallation of my email account on thunderbird.

Do you know how I could import emails in a Mozeml format into Thunderbird?

Let me know if you need more information to understand my question.

Thank you in advance for your help 🙏

When installing 115, I get to a page that says "Just one more step! Finish installing, and start enjoying Thunderbird." But there is no "Finish" or similar button. What do I do?

I have donated. but I keep being asked to donate almost everyday. when that happens my email settings change, its very frustrating. I am a senior, I donate what I can but I can't donate daily or weekly. I donated back in September and I will again in April. please stop this overly aggressive campaign. you were never like this before. Thankyou sincerely Susan H.

On March 14 I stopped being able to get my email. A message saying. "Unable to write the email to the mailbox. Make sure the file system allows you write privileges, and you have enough disk space to copy the mailbox." What can I do? There is plenty of room on my computer and my server says all settings are correct

I have the latest TB 115.4.1 - OSX I select multiple messages in my inbox and hit delete key, only one message is deleted. not the others Same with the contextual menu > Delete selected message

Only ONE message is moved to trash

Hello, Experts:

First up, I'm a happy user of Thunderbird with some years of experience. I make use of filters, and up until about 2 weeks ago they all worked. Now two of my filters (not all) have stopped working automatically, and I have to go to Tools/Message Filters and run them manually.

I'm on TB 102.15.1.

I have deleted the non-working filters and re-created them. No change in behavior.

I would NOT like to de-install/re-install TB because it's a good deal of work, and TB is a critical system for me.

That said, I keep a laptop computer for travel, and the filters work on that platform. IS THERE A WAY to copy a file or folder over from the working laptop onto my desktop machine, where the filters have failed?

Thanks in advance, Bob

How can I turn off the threading of my emails? Its driving me crazy as when an email comes in after a short time it disappears into the threads and then I have to open each thread to find out who sent the email. At one stage there were 6 emails noted near the inbox but no new unthreaded message, all went to respective threads. Very time wasting.

When I attempt to send an email, I get this pop-up:

Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail: Outgoing server (SMTP) error. The server responded: impout006.msg.chrl.nc.charter.net cmsmtp 15.181.97.27 blocked. Please see https://www.spectrum.net/support/internet/understanding-email-error-codes for more information. AUP#Out-1130.

My ISP is Spectrum, they said issue is with Thunderbird, incoming s/b 993, outgoing 587, which I confirmed. How can this be fixed?

Numerous users of Thunderbird have expressed their total dissatisfaction with the recent upgrade, especially the new font and layout in the email lists. Why has the Mozilla team ignored requests to return to the previous load to restore the font and list displays? Do you expect users to support your product when they totally do not like the new version?
