Thunderbird-Hilfeforum

This is the message I get when trying to send emails: "Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: pgbentley101@gmail.com recipient rejected. Please check the message recipient "pgbentley101@gmail.com" and try again."

Title. Thunderbird is a really cool client but it's pretty slow. I blame that on the thousands upon thousands of emails that my hotmail and gmail each hold. I don't necessarily want to delete these emails, but I have seldom a reason to have any email older than 2 months in my thunderbird client slowing and crashing the program whenever I want to combine inboxes.

To this end I went to "Synchronization & Storage" and told it to "Synchronize the most recent 2 months" but it didn't delete the huge cluster of older emails. The next option is to tell TB to delete these emails in the same menu but as I understand it that would also delete them in the server, which I don't want to do for posteriority.

What do I do?

Hello, I have recently installed an updated version of Mozilla Thunderbird as my old account kept telling me that my settings were out dated. Having installed it I am still getting the same message. Please will you advise me which settings and how do I go about updating them. Many thanks.

I am new to Thunderbird and I run a mac mini using macOS Catalina 10.16.7 with Thunderbird v115.4.1. how do I get the date/time to display within the email so I know when it was sent? after installing the app the date/time only seems to be displayed in the listing of email. when looking at the email itself I do not see any date information, even if I open the email in a new window.

My apologies if this has been asked/answered but I did not see this topic when looking at the FAQs

I have used Thunderbird for years and I use it for work. For the last two days, it has started to go slow, and it will freeze and I have to close out of it. This JUST started, and this morning it is almost not functional.

I have looked everywhere I could find to see what I can do and I cannot find anything. I even tried re-installing it.

What can I do?

I searched and I know others have had this issue as well but so far, none of the solutions that I've found have fixed it. This just started happening yesterday randomly in the middle of my work day, NOTHING had changed! One minute, I could receive emails and then next, this error started to appear: Unable to write the email to the mailbox. Make sure the file system allows you write privileges, and you have enough disk space to copy the mailbox.

I can still GET EMAILS ON MY IPHONE and can STILL SEND EMAIL via Thunderbid - I just cannot RECEIVE EMAILS IN THUNBDERBIRD ANYMORE!

Any solutions? It's really a pain to have clients emailing me and have to check and respond to those on my phone.

Thank you!

all of the sudden all messages are downloaded and immediately disappear. Also all folders appear empty. I cannot access anything I have saved, neither can I keep received messages in the mailbox.

Hello, I'm using Thunderbird (and before Netscape Messenger) already 30 years. With this new version 115.4.1 (32-Bit) I'm now experiencing the symptom, that, when I reopen one of the mailboxes the focus is not in this mailbox on the last read mail as it was always in earlier versions, it now focusses somewhere so that you always have to scroll to the point where you have been last time.

My husband has Thunderbird for his emails. I am trying to set up Thunderbird for my emails. I am not able to get past the point where you must select IMAP or POP3. System seems stuck on "checking password". I've had Microsoft outlook for a long time. I want to set up Thunderbird. We have a home based business. I need my email system up and running.

Jeg kan ikke sende mails i Thunderbird, men jeg kan godt modtage mails, det har varet i ca 1 måned. Problemet har vist sig flere gange i de senere år, og så har I rettet det. Er der mulighed for at tale med en tekniker? Så ring venligst på 21135659. Venlig hilsen Minna

In Thunderbird 115.5.0 (64-bit) when you have collapsed threads enabled I have seen the software indicate there are say 8 unread messages. There are no bolded messages in the message panel. If you click on the READ status column you still can not see the unread messages. The only way is to uncollapse the threads and scroll down the message pane to see the bolded messages in each thread. Why?

If the threads are collapsed how are we supposed to find unread messages?

The first address is sometimes clipped when entered in the "to" field. In the images below, abuse@cogentco.com was entered but the final m was not displayed until I clicked back on the entry. See the attached images...

Hi

In old thundebird I had unified folders view. Under Inbox I was able to see all accounts and in main inbox I was able to select which inboxes I want to see.

Now, in supernova under main inboxes I see only those accounts that are selected in main Inbox.

Is it possible to activate old view?

Thank you

Hi! under Thunderbird and IMAP if I read a message and keep it, my wife with another PC (Windows, Thunderbird) will not see it. I have to transfer it to her own address. Any tip? Thanks
