Thunderbird-Hilfeforum

I was recently alerted by Tbird that I had been spoofed (I think it had been in 2021 but was certainly some time ago). I had problems with my BT email a short while ago due to a problem with SMTP which was successfully resolved and a new password applied. Since this was some time after the recorded pwning I assumed that the necessary change had been made. However, after months of no spoofing I am now receiving regular spoofs. Can the spoofers have been alerted by the pwning notice?

I use Yahoo Mail. I am receiving a [TRYCREATE] select error on Junk below Archive. This is a dead folder.

In the Trash, the subfolder "Junk" is my SPAM folder for Yahoo Mail.

I want to have the subfolder junk replace the folder junk and stop the [TRYCREATE] select error place.

What do I need to do to fix this problem?

(note. i'm very wary of posting this question here, as i've been told off, this apparently not being the right place for such matters. but this is where i get to from "Help>Submit Feedback…" in Thunderbird, and also Bugzilla leads me here. if this is not the right place, please can someone kindly tell me where is?)

102.2.2 has really messed things up for me. i can't see any emails after August 9th in any of my Saved Searches, and this is causing real problems.

i've tried deleting the global database and reindexing, but that did nothing.

[Mac OS 10.12.6 Sierra]

Has anyone received this message or know how to fix the issue that may be causing it?

The reason for the problem: 5.3.0 - Other mail system problem 554-'5.4.14 Hop count exceeded - possible mail loop ATTR34 [BL0GCC02FT003.eop-gcc02.prod.protection.outlook.com]'

Hello, my computer died but before it did i backed up my Thunderbird profile files - the backup is 77.8GB so big to zip using export. I installed Thunderbird v.102.8.0 64 bit; and copied my backed up files over and now my email account list shows when clicking the dropdown arrow next to "get messages" but the email account list (72 email accounts) does not show in the left hand pane.

I have attached images of what I see, what is showing in app data - both local and roaming, and also of both .ini files.

Using the troubleshooting setting the software is pointing to the correct location.

I would truly appreciate your help.

Thank you,

I asked a Q on this help line - see kkiely31@tpg.com.au I can no longer find the Q that I asked, and consequently any reply that may have been sent. How do I follow the thread of any conversation that may result from my Q ??? Will I get an email ?

I am running win 10 (64) with thunderbird 102.6.1 (64-bit) and in the past 2 days keep getting a pop-up from ieee - I was a member. I contacted ieee and my account was deleted. A full scan using current version avast free did not find anything. I tried logging in and was rejected.

When this pop-up appears, there is an additional listing in task manager under thunderbird.

I find it extremely annoying to keep getting this pop-up.

I am also using comodo firewall.

I am also contacting avast and comcodo.

Any suggestions etc would be appreciated.

This is the error I get. I know nothing about programming and I have just downloaded thunderbird about 2 weeks ago and still trying to get it to work properly, i have come from outlook 2016.

I receive an email and it is in my inbox. the bottom half of the "window" has the email message in it when I click on the message in the list. I hover my mouse pointer over the senders name and a box opens up. In that box are several options one of them is a + symbol which indicates by clicking on it I can add to the address book. BUT when I click on it I get a really small error box which I have to maximise to read. When I do maximise the box it says "problem loading page" and in the middle of the window is

File not found

The file jar:file:///C:/Program Files/Mozilla Thunderbird/omni.ja!/chrome/messenger/content/messenger/addressbook/abNewCardDialog.xhtml cannot be found. Please check the location and try again.

   Check the file name for capitalisation or other typing errors.
   Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.

Is it possible for someone to suggest what I might do to fix it.

Hello, have any of you encountered such a problem as different email content than it should be? On the main server the content is correct, only through the thunderbird application I encountered such a problem. Is there any solution to this problem ?

When I try to create a filter there is no "OK" button, so obviously filter can't be created. I tried the command % sudo rm ~Library/Thunderbird/Profiles/vwybotat.default % session.json Got the response zsh: no such user or named directory: Library

3rd post - it would be nice to get a response. I cannot send emaIL FROM THIS WIN 10 FULLY UPDated APP. The error message as above appears all the time (and does not cancel after 1 hour or whatever). Email can be sent using the same smtp settings from various Android devices. Forum suggestions do not cure the problem.

This, along with all the other annoying glitches within T'bird, seem to be forcing me to abandon using T'bird after many, many years. Shame.

I have four Gmail accounts which I'm phasing out because of the absurd Google policies and convolutions. I've added four new accounts with another, my own mail hosting service. all the four Gmail accounts I have set to forward all to thee new accounts.

The problem is every time I start up Thunderbird it defaults stubbornly to the previous Gmail account which subsequently it cannot log in and for a password.

I tried everything, setting the other account as default account, unchecking server settings [i.e.check for new messages at start up].

Since I have much (downloaded) information still in subfolders that I need to access from time to time I have not yet deleted that account.

Nothing seems to work, every time I start Thunderbird it immediately goes to that previous default Gmail account and then prompts me for "mail server password required".

The strange thing is that the other remaining three Gmail accounts which have identical settings do not create a problem.

how can I make this stop for once and for all?

Hello, I have NEVER had problems with [Currently using:Thunderbird 60.9.1 (32-bit). Can I update to current Thunderbird with no problems?] Or - simply NOT fool around and stay with the above version?

Thank you, P. Mitchell

Have one PC that thunderbird is crashing on. Program appears on the screen for a second or two then crashes, then I get the crash report popup. I tried starting thunderbird in safe mode and had the same results. Here are the last two crash reports, I have more if needed. bp-69869915-73ce-42e9-ab1b-30bbf0221122 bp-2b617d21-dc6c-4dcb-863f-27ff50221122

Thank you for any help that you may offer.

I have two emails dated 11/22/2021 from support@emarkys.com. If I do a global search for them using either “markys” or “emarkys” I get a drop-down window, image attached, that shows an option for support@emarkys.com. If I click on that I get a search tab that opens showing the two emails. If I click on either of them, I just get a blank screen in a new tab. If I click “Show results as list” I get a blank screen in a new tab.

The emails are located in a local folder “__Purchases” If I search for them using a quick search within the folder they are found just fine and open fine.

I have tried global searches for other emails in that folder and some work fine, but others do not, which is to say they fail like the markys search.

I did a right click on the Purchase folder and selected Repair. The folder only has 147 emails so it completed very quickly. But when it is done the folder appears to have no emails in it. If I click to another local folder and then click back to __Purchases all the emails are there.

After the Repair the search problems persist. I rebooted the PC and the problem persisted.

I tried repairing other local folders that also have name beginning with a double underscore and they repair fine and search fine.

NOW this is really odd. I went to my SurfaceGo to try the same search. Periodically I copy C:\Users\...\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\y6jsbo3s.default to transfer my main PC’s TBird install on that machine. I did the same search on that machine and it worked ok. No problems. Then just for the heck of it I did a repair on the Purchases folder. Unlike the other machine, it appeared to repair fine and all the emails were there without me having to click on another folder. However, when I did the search for Markys I now had the same problem as on the other machine. It no longer worked.
