Hello

Can someone tell me if Thunderbird supports RFC 4021 to allow us setting the sensitivity level of a message ?

RFC Link : https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4021#section-2.1.55 Related Microsoft webpage : https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/mark-your-email-as-normal-personal-private-or-confidential-4a76d05b-6c29-4a0d-9096-71784a6b12c1 Other mail clients support it : https://github.com/M66B/FairEmail/blob/master/FAQ.md#user-content-faq177

But it seems TB doesn't support it... and this is usefull in my company (we setup rules based on it, like blocking forwards when "Personal" is set).

Thanks for the information

Hello

My TB data spans decades, for emails, tasks & events [oh, & also contacts]. I've lost count of however many TB iterations / versions it's lived thru. It began life yonks ago in Win7, & lives now, for many years, in Linux.

For at least a couple of years, my Calendar has had this annoying problem. For many Events, but not all, it is just impossible to directly duplicate them. Both Ctrl-C Ctrl-V, & RMB-Copy RMB-Paste, simply do NOTHING [for it seems like the majority (but not entirety) of my Events].

Research lead me to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2015334 [my distro is #Arch not #Fedora, but IMO that's irrelevant]. I was galled to see that bug report was closed without action or solution; also that it was raised only with Redhat not actually Thunderbird.

In exasperation, recently i conceived this inefficient albeit effective workaround: for the target Event, RMB-ConvertTo-Task, then edit said new task to desired date for the intended duplicate, then convert said task to a new Event... then correct all the text formatting that was lost by this silly indirect process.

I've wondered if possibly the database has become corrupted somehow due to surviving all the historical TB version changes, to cause this duplication problem. So last night i thought i'd Export the Tasks & Events ICS file, then Import it into a clean TB profile elsewhere [in some vague hope that this process might magically "fix" any putative data corruption]. The Export nominally succeeded, being an 81 MB file. The Import failed every time, with the error msg per pic.

What is a frustrated TB user now supposed to do, please? [btw, current version is 102.10.1 (64-bit), in ArchLinux KDE Plasma].

Unfortunatellly I configured and starte to use the one cane from flatpak. I have set everything, mail rules, digital signature, . . . etc. Now the actual problem is that the ImportExportTools NG add-on is not able to export my mails. I guess the reason is that I have 2 installed TB instances on my machine. Please advise how I can realize which one I configured and use? 2nd request: how to remove the redundant TB instance while the necessary will not suffer any injury? Thanks. BR,

I have had the same issues with TB freezing and locking up my PC that many here have had. For me, this has now gone on for almost 3 years. I have done everything I can think of, and everything I have read about online to deal with the constant freezing. I have: --upgraded countless times (now on Ver 102.9.0, 64 bit, Win 10, 32GB RAM, 3TB hard drive) --reinstalled Thunderbird many times --deleted various profiles and created new ones, deleted various config files as suggested. --reinstalled Windows 10, upgraded all associated files, drivers, etc. --started Windows in Safe Mode --disabled all add-ons and extensions in TB --reset all toolbars and controls in TB --started Thunderbird in Troubleshoot Mode --gave an exception to TB in my Windows Defender [and turned off Defender entirely] --ran MANY virus scans --disabled ALL virus software

Thunderbird is the ONLY piece of software on this PC that locks it up. It exhibits the same behavior that many here are seeing: freezes when I try to click on something; freezes when I try to reply to an email; freezes for no apparent reason. I can't MAKE it freeze up... it just seems to do it at random, constantly. Right now, it's open on another screen and has been frozen for about 3 minutes, and just unfroze. Most of the time, it freezes so that I cannot shut TB down. It is completely unresponsive. Sometimes it will freeze the computer so that I cannot do ANYTHING... I cannot open Task Manager and force a shutdown. Eventually, it releases and works again, only to freeze up a few minutes later.

I'm pretty much out of ideas, but I continue to browse online, looking for answers. As I said, three years of this is enough, and I see complaints about this going back even further. I love Thunderbird. I'm a longtime user and have not found any email client that comes close to the way TB works for me, so I'm VERY reluctant to leave. But I'm really tired of being a beta tester. And yes, I have donated many times over the years, and I'm happy to do so. I'm not concerned with the money. I just want it to work like it used to. If you have any fresh ideas, I'm very open to hearing them. But a warning, that I have likely already tried the fixes offered. I appreciate any input, in any event.

So, unless a miracle comes along, I reckon I'll have to cut bait and find a replacement for Thunderbird. Thanks for allowing me to blow off some long-held frustration.

best,

--john

I have an IMAP setup with Inbox, Spam plus various other folders, one of which is Sandbox. I used email filtering to move emails from unknown senders to the Sandbox after Junk filtering. I have also added the Junk button to the mail tool bar.

When I look in my Spam folder, I will see multiple emails. Some of which have been marked Spam and others have not be so marked. When I select multiple emails and press the Junk button on the menu bar, if just one of the selected emails is already marked junk, the emails will be moved to either my Inbox or Sandbox rather than being deleted, which is what I expected.

Up until I upgraded to the beta circuit today, I was using TB V102.<something>

I use a third-party desktop configuration program called WindowBlinds to set system colors and themes; it has always been able to set colors in Thunderbird with no issue... until I installed this beta version... Now, I simply get black text on bright white background, regardless of WindowBlinds theme.

So I tried falling back on using Thunderbird settings... in Settings-> General -> Fonts & Colors, I have tried all combinations that I could think of, but *none* of them affect the Local Folders Folders and Messages display colors.

Specifically, I have: > Enabled "Allow messages to use other fonts" > Under Colors window, have both set and cleared "Use system colors" If I SET "Use system colors", then all of the Settings tabs use the WindowBlinds colors, but neither Local Folders nor Calendar use them. If I CLEAR "Use system colors", then all of the Settings tabs use the fgnd/bgnd colors that I specify in the Colors dialog.

I *really* want *all* of the windows to use my system colors, which were set by WindowBlinds... that's how it all worked before... that bright-white background on the message panes is Ghastly!!! I cannot bear to look at it...

Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again. I have tried every fix on the thread and researched the web to no avail. This just does not make sense as this problem just materialized out of thin air. What is going wrong?

Hi, I am using Thunderbird as an email client. I don't use any ESET product myself, but I have to retrieve mail from a an Exchange-mailserver that requires ESET 2FA. The first login step seems to work, and then an ESET-authentication window pops up but the contents of the window remains blanc, so there is no way to enter my one-time code. This happens both if I approach the mailserver as an Exchange server, and if I approach the mail server through the OWA-protocol (using Owl). Known problem? Any suggestions? Should this be an issue for Thunderbird or for ESET?

I've recently had to abandon my POP account and subsequently my ISP, who has stopped supporting email clients other than their own. I wanted to keep using Thunderbird and while I accept POP is gone, I wanted to maintain access to my old, downloaded emails as they form a useful database of information. I've done this by disabling the server connections of the old POP accounts but leaving accounts themselves in Thunderbird and adding my new web-based account (Protonmail) to download current emails into Thunderbird. All this has been accomplished successfully and works well.

It did take a wee bit of work to get all this 'successful and working well' and during the process Thunderbird has somehow managed to duplicate several folders that can not be deleted. They are all empty except for the ones with the > beside them and those contain the expected material that should be there (so are the ones I want to keep.) Any way of getting rid of all these duplications, especially in Local Folders? They don't seem to be hurting anything but I find them annoying.

I'm on a Mac desktop with Ventura 13.3.1

So, recently my keys expired, and I extended the expiry data via Kleopatra, a nice interface that comes with the GPG4Win suite - and I exported those keys out to the keys.openpgp.org keyservers. When I search for those keys at openpgp.org, they have the proper, updated expiry dates - and they show as that in Kleopatra - but when I see those keys (and all the exact same imported third-party public keys I've pulled into Kleopatra), they have the old expiry dates, and I cannot sign or encrypt emails. It's quite annoying.

What gives?

Also, what keyserver does Thunderbird use?!?

Like others, 90% or more of my OUTGOING emails TO gmail accounts are rejected. However 100% Iof gmail accounts are received.

  • Google advises to Verify your domain name by entering the following code:
  • Verify your ownership of your-domain.com
  • Your DNS TXT verification record was not found. You might need to wait a few minutes before Google sees your changes to the TXT records. Please try again.
  • 1. Add the TXT to the DNS configuration for your-domain.com
  • TXT record:
  • google-site-verification=hfwwN3kcDCYXdd73jbxVTScYmf2Meo0Yr8jylwf15dU
  • 2. Click Verify
  • When Google finds the DNS record that you have added, we will verify your ownership of the domain. To stay verified, do not remove the DNS record, even after the verification succeeds. (DNS changes may take some time and if we do not find the record immediately, we will check for it periodically.)
  • Note: On successful verification, your account will also have access to the domain's data on Google Search Console.

Where in Thunderbird to I enter this TXT into the DNS Verification Record. I've searched for almost two hours and find nothing? Thank you
