Thunderbird-Hilfeforum

Hi. I am currently in the process of switching to another email provider. I have emails in my inbox that are really important and dating back to 2018. I really don't want to lose these when I switch the settings, but I have no idea how to download/back up all my emails. How can I back them up and then import them after I switch the server settings.

I have Thunderbird on my laptop and also on my desktop. I have had for years.

I have not experienced problems. I like Thunderbird.

However for 9 days now I can'r receive emails on my desktop even though, with the same settings I can on my laptop.

I have spoken at length with my broadband provider (Sky) and my business web hosting company (Ionos). Neither has been able to help. They both recommend contacting Thunderbird (ie Mozilla).

I am using the same email address and server password as I do on other devices including Sky Web mail on a browser, successfully. However it doesn't work with the Thunderbird desktop email client I have installed (which is also the most up to date).

Please help

I have checked SMTP server settings - appear to be OK as the internet supplier expects. This suddenly started to happen about a week ago. other Emails sent via hotmail and gmail not now affected .

I had to get SPF or DKIM on my suppliers mail server to allow gmail emails to be sent.

All email addresses receive emails so that part is OK

Whenever I launch Thunderbird (Windows 10 64 bit computer) the program keeps saying "not responding" for about a minute, then unlocks for about three seconds then "not responding" again for about a minute and does this over and over for at least 30 minutes. If I haven't opened Thunderbird for a few days and have 10 to 20 emails to download it has taken up to three hours to download the emails and quit "not responding" off and on until it finally runs correctly. I can't use the program until it finally quits. It shouldn't take three hours to check my email. Can you help?

Hello,

I have been using Thunderbird for some time and it has served me well. I used it to manage my gmail accounts with encryption and so on.

Recently I have deleted one of my gmail accounts and when I launch it Thunderbird asks me to log in to that account. "Sign in to continue to Mozilla Thunderbird Email" And I am supposed to enter my email.

I have checked the account settings: the old account (let's call it old@gmail.com) is no longer there. I have also removed the outgoing SMTP server for the old account.

I do not know how to stop the app from asking me to log in to an nonexistent account.

Outlook Mail no longer working on TB. I am using the latest Supernova update. Had to revert to POP which I prefer not to do. Is anyone else experiencing same? Hope this can be resolved.

I installed Thunderbird 115.6.1 and it will not send or receive email. I uninstalled Thunderbird and scoured the Windows 10 Registry with CCleaner. When reinstalling Tbird 115.6.1 it works until I reboot then it fails again.

I have checked the serer setting for the Incoming and Outgong servers and they are correct.

My PC goes online without a hitch with Firefox, Tor, Vivaldi, and DuckDuckGo browsers. The Internet connection is solid. Note: Firefox was misbehaving in that it would not fully open some sights. In Windows Programs and Features I found and executed a Repair function for Firefox and that solved that problem. This saved me from uninstalling, flushing the Registry, and reinstalling. I thought it may clear the Tbird problem, but it did not.

I am quite technically savvy as I used PC since they were on the market and never ask for help until I've exhausted every possible fox. This problem is one for the history books and eludes me.

Error message is that the server is not responding. eMClient email software works without a problem as does using Web mail through Firefox or another browser. Your help is most appreciated, or a link where i may download a previous version of Thunderbird. Thank you, your help is warmly appreciated.

I found on your website that I can edit subject lines of e-mails I received using the add on (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1155148) .

I downloaded the add on, but unfortunately the

link 'how to install' goes to ? gets me a: Not Found . The requested URL was not found on this server. (http://xenos-email-notes.simplesite.com/416814616)

Since my computer does not know what to do with the downloaded file I need help on how to install the add on. Thanks

I'm desperate I don't understand the techie stuff when I google and I don't know what to do Can anyone please help me get them back or are they gone for ever? I'm desperate I'm snowed in on the farm and no one can come to help me and I'm just in such a panic

I have used message filters for some years with complete success. Recently when an email is moved by a filter, either on initial receipt or on manual run, the message appears in the correct folder okay but is not removed from the inbox. i.e. it appears in both. If I delete it from the inbox it gets deleted from the folder as well. !! I am not aware of having changed any settings. Can anyone explain where I'm going wrong, please? John

I tried sending an email to my brother containing photographs that I'd found from 65 years ago. I received a "Sending of message failed" result. The message suggested that the email was spam. It is NOT spam, it just contains photographs of my brother from 65 years ago when we lived at a house called Sunnyside. What is making Thunderbird think that it is spam? How can I overcome this false assumption?

I use Thunderbird for my email. I have two computers and have donated on each on of them over the last few weeks. The Donate page appears when I am in my email and takes up the bottom half of the display. How do I get rid of this and stop it from coming back? Thanks for your help. Gary

I have only one profile. When I open Thunderbird the profile selection window comes up. "Use the selected profile without asking at startup" is checked, but every time I have to tell Thunderbird to use the selected profile. Is this a known bug? or is there something else gone astray? This has been taking place for quite a while now. If my memory is correct it began after I had to rename my user profile.

? Please refer to the attached images According to the Manual Configuration, I set-up my account. First to IMAP and then a second time to POP3. Both set-ups were successfully tested. The first set-up (IMAP) received the more lengthy refusal when I sought to finalize it by pressing the Done button; and the second set-up received second shorter refusal. So, the question is what am I doing incorrectly? I have independently tested both the ID and the password and both are proper. Thanks for your assistance. Mark Lee
