Does anyone know how this could happen?

see: Thunderbird not sending with Gmail POP3 SOLVED

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1408429

See 21 March.

Well, after I thought I had fixed my Problem, I got a big surprise. A friend came by and I was explaining what I did so we had a look at the Account Settings. When I pulled up the SMTP settings I noticed that the Port selection had been changed back to 587. I checked the other Gmail accounts and they too had reverted to 587. Bear in mind, I had previously changed all the accounts SMTP ports to the default, 465. Now, the question is, “How did the ports revert to 587. 587 is the port chosen when Thunderbird sets up a gmail account even though it shows the default as 465. Does anyone know how this could happen? Joe

Hi there,

since a couple of releases since I installed thunderbird on my MacBook, I got the problem that the counter displays 99+ unread messages when everything is read. It only transforms to a no red dot icon when I have 3 unread messages across my accounts, and then if more come in starts to count up. I waited thinking it's just a bug on one release (as it suddenly started doing it after an update, but I don't remember what version that was) but after receiving the newest update (Version 102.9.1 (64-Bit)) it is still not fixed.

I have tried changing the system settings for the icon (disabling this red dot and then turning it back on) but it didn't work.

Any other suggestions?

Hello, I want to make an email with two sender identity from different SMTP. Is that possible? One inbox for mail A, but sent as mail A or mail B with each own SMTP.

Case:

  1. Mail A has IMAP and SMTP access
  2. Mail B has SMTP access
  3. Mail A and mail B has different SMTP
  4. Mail B has no IMAP/POP access but all email received are forwarded to Mail A

Purpose: Send email like normal (choose one click sender, then write the rest of mail) using email with only SMTP access

It works well if they are on the same SMTP. As each account can only have one SMTP, I have to change SMTP manually to mail B after sending mail as mail A. It works for sending (by changing SMTP details) but not efficient.

Or maybe, is there a way to create send-only mail without inbox?

Thinks like Gmail feature... In Gmail, Send emails from a different address or alias feature-like is probably what I'm looking for. Its alias can have its own unique SMTP setting, but only have one inbox.

It works too, but want to setting this in Thunderbird if possible.

Hi,

For a couple of weeks the synchronizing of my calendar in Thunderbird between my two devices seems broken.

- I don't know if this is related to Thunderbird or to the CalDav free service that I use (https://fruux.com/). Is there a way to find out which one it is? - Also I've been using this system for a long time, so I have many entries stored in the calendar. I'm aware that this is slowing things down, but can it cause complete lack of sync? - In case it's relevant: when I reinitialize the connection by deleting and setting up the calendar again, the content is correctly synchronized at the beginning.

Suggestions welcome, thanks :)

Just spent 1 and half hours with Surfshark online support to troubleshoot why I can't send emails while connecting to them. Was working fine with Nord VPN. The problem is with Thunderbird app since I have no pb with my phone or tablet that uses FairEmail. No pb while using the browser version pf my email provider (posteo) either. I only get the "sending of the email failed" when using Thunderbird app on Windows 10. I did all the troubleshooting on the general help pages, nothing helps so far. And I can't seem to find any live support or even an email address for support. So I'd be very grateful for any info on that too. Have a great day and thanks in advance.

I have a IMAP server with a self signed certificate. How do I import the certificate as an exception? I've obviously done it once, because a certificate is listed in:

Server -> Privacy and Security -> Manage Certificates -> Server

I need to add a new one, for which I assume I use "Add Exception...". But that seems to only accept HTTPS locations. I tried imap://<hostname> and <hostname>:143 but neither seems to work.

Help Please! I created some filters which where supposed to move email with a specific subject to a folder named the same as the subject. For instance there are filters named Mountain Hardware, Union Bay, and one named advertisement. They weren't working as expected so I opened the filter menu and changed Run Selected Filter On folder to Mountain Hardware. I received a message saying it wasn't working or failed, I don't remember exactly what the message said. Then I noticed I didn't have any mail in my inbox. I looked for the mail and it appears all mail is going to folder named 'Advertisement'. Of course the first goal would be to recover my inbox, then it would be nice to figure out how to make filters work for me without breaking Thunderbird. Thanks, Scott

There is a small subset of senders, all of whom seem to be sending e-mail via ActiveCampaign Mailer (activehosted.com) for which I have a problem. When I view the e-mails from them in Thunderbird, I see only a tiny bit of text -- the full graphical content of the e-mail has disappeared (really all of the content, there is no alt-text for the images, just 2 lines of vestigial text). I **only** have this problem when viewing the e-mails in Thunderbird. When I view these e-mails in my ISP's webmail tool, everything is intact. Only when the mail gets downloaded into Thunderbird does the problem occur.

I have already tried disabling my BitDefender anti-spam and that doesn't help.

The e-mail headers of the truncated e-mail in Thunderbird are exactly the same as those on the intact e-mail in the webmail tool (when BitDefender is disabled).

Why is Thunderbird doing this? How can I stop it?

Thanks so much for attention and advice!

Hello,

I'm using Tbird 102.9.0 on Linux Mint v20. After a few days of running I cannot move messages from the inbox to any other folder. Closing Tbird and re-opening does not work. I tried RMB-Move To, file menu Message-Move To, and drag-n-drop, none of those works.

After a few tries to move messages from the inbox to other folders fails, I can no longer delete messages from the inbox, and the message view pane does not update when I click on a different message in the inbox. If I close Tbird and re-open, these functions work again.

Note, I updated the subject after I discovered it seems to be just one folder that I cannot move new message into. Also, using a menu "Move To" function to try to move messages into this folder locks up my inbox. Drag-n-drop doesn't work either, but it doesn't lock-up my inbox.

TIA, -Brad

Thunderbird has been running slow and locking up frequently. I just completed a complete Bitdefender scan of my computer. It is reporting that there are Trojans and showing them in my TB profiles.

If I tell Bitdefender to clear it out, I get a message that says to manually delete the attachments from the email client but it doesn't tell me where they are.

How do I get rid of the trojans without loosing years worth of email messages?

From the log, I have a lot that look like this: C:\Users\Linda Dickinson\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\vus1oehd.Linda-3\Mail\Local Folders\Archive.sbd\Darol.sbd\Darol-2021=>message 363719: [Date: 26 Mar 2021 01:40:23 -0700] [From: CHEN XIAOYU>info@chinaporousfilters.com] [Subject: Re:: PROFORMA INVOICE AND BANK DETAILS]=>[Subject: Re:: PROFORMA INVOICE AND BANK DETAILS][Date: 26 Mar 2021 01:40:23 -0700]=>INVOICE 25667833822..rar=>INVOICE 25667833822..exe Trojan.GenericKD.45974407

By a lot, I mean over 5K. I know I could run a search in thunderbird for that Subject line and delete them. But there are many many different subjects. The PROFORMA INVOICE one seems to be the vast majority of them though.

Greetings, folks!

I am fairly new to using an IMAP connection between Thunderbird and the host mail server, HostMonster. There's behavior that I could use your help understanding. First, I can send and receive mail just fine. Basic configuration works. The issue is this:

When incoming messages appear in Thunderbird's inbox for the IMAP account, I drag (move) them to an appropriate local folder for archiving. That works fine. The message disappears from the account's inbox and now is in that local folder. If, however, I log in to the hosting company's web email interface (roundcube), and look at the IMAP inbox, the moved messages are still there, but grayed out. They are marked as deleted, but still (in some nebulous state) in the inbox. I can manually select then delete the grayed-out messages, and they go away permanently.

If, on the other hand, I select a message in Thunderbird's inbox and delete it, the message disappears from both Thunderbird's IMAP inbox and the web email interface (roundcube) inbox. That's as expected.

SO, the question is whether there is a Thunderbird configuration setting that I've missed, which will actually delete the messages from the server's inbox?

Thanks very much for your help.

Thunderbird is already running, but is not responding. The old Thunderbird process must be closed to open a new window. I cancelled and looked at the task manager which indicated that thunderbird was not there. After another try I did a conputer restart and finally a shutdown , unplug and restart with the same result.

I I refreshed thunderbird, no luck. I deleted and reinstalled Thunderbird, still no go. ( I was doing the same thing with Firefox. I had to go out of town for 2 days and Firefox has healed itself but thunderbird still doesn't work. HELP!
