Thunderbird-Hilfeforum

I believe that TBird in the past would show the count of the selected messages in the bar at the bottom. For example if I selected 10 messages in a folder for deletion it would show at the bottom how many were selected. If I selected a thousand it would show that number, and then when I hit delete it would show a progress of x number deleted of so many selected.

Now it no longer shows the number selected and during the delete process only occasionally flashes the x number deleted of the number selected.

I believe this is a bug in 115.11.1 It is occurring on two different PCs both running Win 10 Pro.

I work pretty much exclusively using Unified Folders, in particular a Unified Inbox. Thunderbird 115.11.0 checks for new messages on schedule and downloads from all three of my accounts automatically throughout the day. But if I want to do a manual download, the little cloud-with-an-arrow checks only my primary account, not the other two. Yet when I right-click the little cloud, that identical icon purports to represent all accounts. Am I misunderstanding something? Is there a way to essentially replace the one little cloud with the other so that a right-click and second selection is no longer necessary?

I have been given an email account as a board member of a local non-profit organization. I have tried but cannot get it to work in Thunderbird. It does, however, work on my Apple devices (iPad, iPhone & Watch). I'm missing important correspondence by not being able to get on my desktop. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I have a new email in outlook account. I have created a new identity in thunderbird for this. It is receiving emails but will not send them. I have made an app password in Microsoft but still can’t get it to work. Could someone help with this please Stephen

Thunderbird doesn't consistently show messages for "digest" mailing-list emails. E.g. for a subscription to "users-digest@activemq.apache.org".

Looking at an individual mail, e.g. 57170, it also does not show the contents. Using Ctrl-U to show the source then reveals the contents.

After years of operating satisfactorily now when try to get new messages I am frequently told that there are several new messages but nothing appears in my inbox. I have checked the emails on the server but they match what is in my inbox. Nothing has gone missing and I do not have a 'junk' folder. I have tried clearing the cache but it did not work. Could this be a fault with the latest update to Thunderbird? This is nothing more sinister than highly irritating

Hi Really need some help please.

Running TB latest version 115.11.0 on Win 10. Multiple gmail and other accounts, both POP and IMAP.

Following a catastrophic loss of accounts and messages, I made a fresh TB install then I restored from a previously saved profile from a month ago.

Accounts and folders with messages all now appear.

With one POP gmail account, the inbox and sent folders are stuck at last month's position. I expected the last month's messages to be downloaded as soon as I log into TB, but I'm not able to Get Messages.

My TB log in to collect gmail messages is rejected with this message - The STAT command did not succeed. Error getting message number and sizes. Mail server pop.gmail.com responded: [AUTH] Invalid credentials.

I have checked the account settings server address, and password is set to 0Auth2.

I have changed the gmail password on the gmail website (browser is Firefox) - which is accessed without problem, but only incoming mails are visible, my outgoing mails should be on my PC.

Every time I get the "enter new password" dialog I enter the password that gets me into gmail's on-line website - it is rejected with the STAT message.

I cannot send or receive gmail messages through TB - how can I force gmail to let TB access my emails?

Quite often recently, Thunderbird just stops pulling in emails.

It seems that I need to upgrade but find out by chance by looking under About under Help. Should there not be some other prompt as it is very confusing and some may have no idea what is happening?

Thanks.

I have used Mail Merge addon for years and it works fine. But I would like to use the if then else capability in my TO line. I have the authors page on usage but everything I try seems to be wrong. I have a spread sheet with the following headers: Email Veteran

Under email is the email address. Under Veteran is either Y or N. If used as stand alone {{Email}} in TO line substitution is flawless.

However if I use {{Veteran|Y|Email}} it doesn't work. I have tried enclosing the Y in both single and double quotes and that does't help. I have replaced the Email field name with some text and that doesn't work. So I am thinking that I must have an issue with the way the fields are being interpreted.

I just downloaded and installed the latest version of Thunderbird and MailMerge addon.

Any help greatly appreciated.

I've noticed recently that addresses that were in my personal address book have disappeared, basically they've been deleted. This next bit is from memory so excuse the vagueness. The last time I looked for these I found them in a bin marked as "deleted by thunderbird".

What is going on?

I need these addresses back.

I have many programs/apps in my Windows 10 task bar (at the bottom of the screen), and when one of those programs is minimized, the task bar icon for that program has a blue line under the icon, to show that it is still active, but not showing on screen -- that is, except for Thunderbird. If I'm not writing a message in TB at the time I minimize it, there is no blue line under the icon. The problem is: when I'm ready to shut down a session and I've been using Thunderbird at some point in the session and have minimized it, I can't tell from the task bar icon whether TB is active or not, without clicking on the icon. I don't want to have to do that every time I close down the computer, and I don't want to close the session with TB still active. It seems that a simple coding addition would fix the problem, and I can't believe no one else has mentioned the problem. This is not new with 15.1 -- it's been going on for several versions. The ONLY time the icon appears is when there is more than one page of TB open (like Main & Write).

Your prompt response is appreciated. Thanks, engrollie

I have a new email which has been set up in outlook 365. I have created the new identity in thunderbird which thunderbird set up. The new identity will receive emails, it will send read receipts, but will not send emails. It just says "sending message" but it never goes. I have waited for about 3 minutes and it doesn’t even seem to time out.

I cannot see my accounts/emails as they suddenly disappeared. I am able to see my accounts when I go to File > Get New Messages For, but I am unable to do anything with my Thunderbird app. It shows nothing no matter where I click. The app is updated, and I have even uninstalled and reinstalled it.

I have used Thunderbird for decades, first on Windows, and in more recent years on linux.

Note this refers to IMAP.

I have subfolders under sent for particular organisations. These have worked well for several years, but recently have found that many are not moved to their relevant folder, and some sent mail that should stay in the main sent folder, end up in just one of the sub folders. If you move it back the the sent folder it returns to that sub-folder The only change that I have made is moving from Plusnet to Zoho to host my mail around the beginning of the year. However, this problem has only been seen relatively recently, and IIRC first seen after a TB update, though there have been other updates since. When I first noticed that the sent mail was not moving to the subfolders I ran the filters manually and all of the other sent mail disappeared, including on the server. Luckily I had a backup.

I may have to make the sent subfolders as subfolders of the incoming mail though I don't really want to do that, and I don't know if I wil still have issues.

Any help will bee greatly appreciated

Sometime within the past few weeks, some images are failing to display inline. Mixed symptoms: sometimes get box where image should be, sometimes just see a link. TBird doesn't ask permission to display online content. Tried help and online search, without success. Screenshot attached. Thanks!

Hello Team,

Please be aware that we are encountering issues configuring POP for Office 365 using Thunderbird, as it is generating an error stating the username and password are incorrect. Our Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) is enabled, and we are attempting to utilize OAuth2.

When I download messages, it often says there are say '6 new messages', but only 3 appear on the screen. I'm wondering whether the others are going to Junk, but I am unable to access it. So my question is, how do I access Junk Thanks David White
