Thunderbird-Hilfeforum

I made no changes to anything, but a week ago, my thunderbird app on my computer stopped loading new messages and began to throw this alert when I try to save drafts or send messages: > Your draft message was not copied to your drafts folder (Drafts) due to network or file access errors. You can retry or save the draft locally. The email on my phone, through the mail app on iphone, still works perfectly. Both the thurnderbird and mail app are set up through IMAP.

Hello everyone, I've been using Thunderbird with the Plugin FiltaQuilla as a tool to print attachments of incoming mails (this are alarm information for a fire brigade). Our dispatch center sends the mails out using PGP for encryption, the decryption works properly. Since FiltaQuilla cannot work on encrypted mails, I forward incoming mails to the same account which removes the encryption. The strange situation is: if the filter is executed automatically upon arrival of a new mail, it forwards the message, but does not attach the attachment. If I run the filter manually, it does as it is intended to. See the screenshot for details: the mail comes in at 5:53, the automatic forwarding arrives at 5:59 but without an attachment. My manual filter-test runs properly and includes the attachment at 8:22. I've updated Thunderbird only yesterday evening to V 115.10.1. Before the mayor update to 115, I had the feeling that this problem did not occur. Please let me know if and how I can provide more details such as logs. Best regards Andreas Schultz

Was trying to find a solution to new emails not showing but unread number increasing but no applicable articles were coming up. But after hours of trying solutions, I think the answer was to mark some older emails that were marked unread as read. Then the latest couple of days of emails started coming through. This happened when migrating Cox.net emails to Yahoo and then modifying Thunderbird account settings to retrieve them. This email account has over 14K emails from 2014 and later showing in Yahoo Inbox and somehow the Thunderbird Inbox is showing 26K, probably some duplicates, although I have been using the extension "Remove Duplicate Messages". In Yahoo, I made more folders for several older years and moved emails from the Yahoo main Inbox to those various years to cut the size of the Inbox. Any other suggestions would be great for similar situations.

I've been noticing apparent duplicate messages within my unified folders inbox on my desktop recently.

Looking further I notice that one of my accounts has 'INBOX' as one of its subfolders which is where the problem appears to stem from. When I look at that account in isolation (ie not in unified folders) I can still see the inbox as a subfolder.

The subfolder 'INBOX' appears to be a duplicate of the account's main inbox (it contains the same number of emails), which may account for the appearance of duplicates.

At a guess this is probably related to inadvertent moving of folders. I find that when trying to use the scroll bar (to scroll down the subfolder list), if the mouse strays slightly to the left it will pick up a subfolder and move it unintentionally. This can cause all sorts of problems with disappearing emails and the folder structures showing differently on different computers.

In this case the duplicate email problem only happens on my desktop. On my laptop I can still see a subfolder named 'INBOX' but it shows as empty and I don't see the duplicate emails in unified folders.

It would be really useful if Mozilla could introduce a 'confirm folder move' feature as that would eradicate inadvertent moves.

How do I resolve the apparent duplicate emails on my desktop? I am somewhat reticent to delete the subfolder 'INBOX' for fear of the potential consequences. . .

I just upgraded to version 115.10.1 and I have since had numerous incidents where I could not move the cursor to add the next line etc. If I recall correctly this mostly happens after pasting text from a another email or other source. In fact there have been times when the entire composition becomes frozen. In this case it doesn't matter where you place your cursor, you will not be able to edit anything. Very serious problem and a major disappointment. I am always afraid to update at this point, and this is not right. The new releases need to be tried and tested.

I am running Thunderbird on Linux Fedora. I have two accounts set up. One of them is an icloud account. Every day, many times per day, it prompts for password. I have a nightmare to get one for it due to the new way Apple deals with stuff like this. I have to get an 'App Specific Password', which involves logging in, which I hate doing and doesn't work because I use a VPN and Apple discriminates against VPN users and locks my account every time i login (even though it's the same IP address every time).

I did manage to generate one, which got rid of the problem for a day or two, then it came back, generated again, and so I go around, each time having to unlock icloud account, remove old password, generate a new one, paste it into TB and then its fine for a few hours/days.

Would be very grateful for any ideas why this is happening and how to cure it.

thanks

Thunderbird will not start. Message Can't Load XPCOM. Windows 10. Have uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird multiple times. No change. Have deleted the Thunderbird folder in Program Files and reinstalled Thunderbird. No change.
