Thunderbird-Hilfeforum

It seems that e-mails from one particular e-mail address, solidifi_values@solidifi.com are being blocked or filtered out as spam. I need Thunderbird to recognize this address and allow all e-mails from this address to be delivered to me. This is the second time I have posted this request. I would very much appreciated it if someone would call me @ 530 412-2260 or respond via e-mail to hartleyappraisal@mindspring.com

David of your staff said: "Some accounts, such as Outlook, automatically save a copy in Sent folder so, if it's an Outlook account, just untick the option to save a copy. " I don't have a clue where I go or how I get there in order to do this very simple possible solution. Larry

I have been using Thunderbird for a year. It is ok, but some problems are borderline un-tolerable. I have ~3500 emails in my IMAP account. I would like to keep more for a deeper search, but ok - I could handle that. And once in a while, about every month, I am doing something and the Thunderbird decides to re-download all my messages. And it locks me out of all emails for about 2 hours while this process is ongoing. I cannot open emails, I cannot answer - nothing.

I have no "cleaning" software, I do not mess up with the database file.

Is there a way to avoid this re-download? If not, is it possible to avoid the lock-out, to get emails usable while it does it - for example, download the most recent emails first and make them visible at least?

I need to send a libre office calc sheet by email using thunderbird to a colleague, so she can open it and edit it and send it back to me with her input. Until she is logged onto Thudnerbird, I have tried sending it to myself, but it arrives as a 'read only' document. I am unable to amend it. I have added my email address to Libre office Tools / options/ email and selected File/ Send / email as open document spreadsheet, but it still does not work.

What I am doing wrong here please? I'd be most grateful for any help. thank you

메일 기능 중 별도 개인 폴더에 메일을 이동 및 복사 해서 관리하고 있습니다 개인 폴더를 만들어서 메일을 넣어 놓고 필요할 때 찾아서 확인을 하고 있습니다(온라인 메일은 용량 제한으로 이렇게 사용하고 있음) 그런데 몇일 전부터 그 개인 폴더의 메일이 보이지 않고 있습니다 다른 기능이나 옵션 변경을 하지 않았고 그냥 사용하다가 이런 일이 발생되어 당황스럽네요 다시 살릴 수 있는 방법이 있을까요?

Not sure where to put this; too many issues at the same time.

1: - Thunderbird moved the top menu bar to the left, now has unreachable buttons at the bottom due to negative interactions with other menus and window manager => tried many forums, but all changes to ./chrome/userChrome.css are ignored. 2: - the quick filter button was moved from the toolbar to an individual bar, adding one new line above message list, reducing the vertical space for content 3: - new management of borders have negative interactions with window manager (tried both options, with and without decoration, both are ... BAD). making it impossible for window manager to properly resize window magnet to other windows 4: - there are large sensibility zones for decoration management catched by TB that make some buttons unreachable in the left bar, and the window manager gadgets i have below (quick launch and desktop management) 5: - there is a new sensibility zone between the top menu bar and the top decoration of windows that give access to some window manager menu, useless at this place, and it reduced the vertical sensibility zone of the buttons, making the click box smaller, and reducing the effective size of buttons, making them harder to click 6: - the unread message count which used to be a nice light blue is now white in a dark grey box, catching the eye more than necessary, slowing me down, and increasing my brain work to focus on what i need to do. also this value is unconsistent; my inbox is curretly shown with 411 total messages, and 630 unread. If i unfold the folder in left column, it seems i have only 89 unread in inbox, and 2 in one subflder, but, to me, 89+2 is not equal to 630. 7: - the file/edit/view menu bar is now BELOW the actions buttons Get/Write/Reply ... 8: - if I roll up the TB windows in the top decoration, any mouse click in the place where the win used to be remains inefficient. So, TB completely broke E17. A shaded win still occupies the screen as if it's unshaded, and more (about 20 pixels below the bottom decoration). 9: - It's 20y the message list was aligned on the top message, so I always made that box half a message taller than an exact message line height multiple, so that the half line white space was a proof I was at the bottom of the list. Now, the list is aligned bottom, and the top line is shown half. I now have no way to know if i am in middle on bottom of list (plus lift is now auto hide).

i don't have any screenshot from previous version for reference. And half issues are bad interactions with E17 about magnetism, and size of click boxes, and this can't be shown on screenshots; even videos would not help if you can't feel it physically, or never used E17 yourself in the past; you can't know how it used to behave.

All these changes have an intense negative impact on my work speed. They slow me down.

TB had almost not changed in 20y of use, but these changes, at the same time, with so many consequences on window manager ... I can't stand it. 20y of habits lost in one evening. Not something you can change at my age.

I have seen only one improvement (bug fix) in recent TB: "save all" attachements works now fine from the menu under the message, and we no longer need to use Save All from top menus (regression bug between TB 1.2 and 1.5, IIRC).

Hi there,

Thanks for your help...

Vcard is not enabled in my settings (see screen shot) But whenever I send an email a blank card appears at the bottom. Is there some other setting i am missing?

Many thanks,

Holly

we use Thunderbird (102.6.1) to get mail from outlook.office365.com (on Windows 7, service pack 1)

We updated the password method to OAuth2 prior to the Outlook October 2022 update (to not support open passwords for POP3). This has worked up to about 2 days ago. Now there is no response to get messages request, the status bar says 'host contacted, sending login information' . There is a progress bar at the right hand end. looks complete (dark blue).

Sending out messages still works. Retrieving from other mail servers also works (Gmail, BTinternet.com, Tiscali) .

we use two machines (His & Hers!), Hers- last msg recd 27/Dec at 14:11 His- last msg recd 29/Dec at 18:54 I have saved profile, and removed and reinstalled thunderbird on Hers machine, no change in response.

Hello, Suddenly my filters stopped running correctly. The directory to where I want the message to move does exist, but it looks like Thunderbird lost the information about the directories' locations. Attached is the message box popping up for every filter in my list. Maybe the last update is the culprit causing this problem that I never had before. What can be done to solve this? Thanks

‘How can I dump a few thousand emails from a particular email inbox? (they were acquired while my computer & monitor were broken & I'd like to dump them all at once if I can so Thunderbird will work properly)’

I'd like to dump them all at once to get rid of them. I'll answer any further questions I can.

I can not get my emails anymore in the last two weeks. Get a message "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, user name or password"

User name and password have not changed. I use IMAP for incoming and outgoing mail. Any thoughts or suggestions would be welcome.

Did think of uninstalling Thunderbird and then re-installing it, but unsure if that will help. thanks Vic
