Thunderbird-Hilfeforum

We have been using Thunderbird with a Cox email account. Cox has just transferred all its customers to Yahoo. I want to use Thunderbird with Yahoo. How do I set that up?

Hi.,

 Cox cable just discontinued their email server and moved all it's email accounts to Yahoo.

I had been using Thunderbird successfully with Cox for several months before this happened.

 I am able to send and receive emails now via my new online Yahoo server;  however I have not

been able to connect / use Thunderbird to send and receive emails since the Yahoo changeover. I have tried many things, but I either get a "failed" error message or a "timed out" error message. Yahoo support has not been able to figure this one out. They are hard to get a hold of and hard to understand (communicate with). They are overseas from the US.

 I appreciate any help you can offer.

Kind regards, Ken

I am showing beside the inbox that I have 4 unread emails, but I have nothing in the message (inbox) folder. I have looked everywhere and cannot find these messages anywhere.

I have two email accounts on Thunderbird. One, the gmail account still works perfectly, but the other, a cox.net, has started today to not move and messages to trash or junk as set by the settings. This problem is across all my devices, PC, ipad and Iphone.

Is there a simple fix to enable links in emails? I've tried several suggested fixes but still the links don't work.

Changing settings documentation is confusing for non-developer types. Instructions are cumbersome and unclear.

I may be missing something, but how can I remove threading completely from Thunderbird or how can I download an older version. I"ve searched for 102.15, but cannot find a way to download it. I really prefer NOT to use another email client. I've always used Thunderbird, but I cannot tolerate this threading thing and I can't seem to disable it.

Sadly, my old Windows 10 PC crashed, and I'm migrating to a new computer. I have a backup of the old default profile folder (9k7faw1z.default), but not of the entire Profiles folder. I have tried to import this old default profile using the import function in my new Thunderbird install on my new Windows 11 computer.

Alas, I get the error message "Import failed unexpectedly; more information may be available in the Error Console." I looked in the error console, and it's empty.

Is there a better way to import my old data from my old default profile folder? It's 3GB of valuable data and I'll be in a pickle if I can't access it.

Thanks very much.

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.

Hello, I have migrated my thunderbird onto a new windows system but I now get not automatic download of messages, the only messages I might get is if I close down Thunderbird and reopen. Get messages does not do anything - not even sure its attempting to communicate with server .

Is there anything I can do or change ? I have literally spent almost trying various things and I am the point of giving up and trying a completely different email client. There should be a seamless migration method but it appears there is not.

Thunbderbird, will not load inbox emails. sent mails showing and folders. test email sent not showing.

pop up box displayed" cant fetch uid?"

thanks.

Dear Team,

Our MD laptop thunderbird configure for mail solution. 25.3.2024 auto update run 115 to 125 version. after 125 version in thunderbird mail view option are changed. in version 115 that mail view option i working. how to uninstall latest update 125 or how rollback older version 115.

There is an email app provided by xiaomi on my phone.What in the email sent by this app contains a special format of `Date` fields.It looks like that: `Date: Thu, 2 May 2024 05:55:12 UTC` It doesn't look like others' `Date: Thu, 2 May 2024 06:05:15 +0000` or `Date: Thu, 2 May 2024 10:35:14 +0800 (CST)`

but it is still conforming to standards (or is it only parsable by the JavaScript Date method?)

After I modified windows time zone and restarted thunderbird. all emails changed time so this is not a time zone problem.

But this email shown two different times in the preview and detailed pages at this moment.

So can anyone tell me if this is a bug? Thank you.

Upon reopening Thunderbird mail today, I find that the latest update does not allow emails to be opened in a new window with one-click. Clicking on an email launches the message in a new tab instead of a window. Why create a new issue like this? DUMB . . . please fix.

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?
