Thunderbird-Hilfeforum

I have Thunderbird 102.2.1 (64bit) on a pc win 10. Today it stopped working properly. when opened, the window is white and blank. yet, when i hover the mouse over it, i am able to select from the tab buttons at the top. the only way that i can see thunderbird normally is if i put it into troubleshooting mode. my business depends on thunderbird to work, so please help.

Today my 102.0.1 has disappeared. TB has worked for me for decades including now on 102.0.1 which is the latest version. I've downloaded 102.0.1 again but still doesn't show up.

Since updating thunderbird on the 7/7 I have noticed the filters are getting mucked up, they seem to get deleted and the global " Mark all folders read" is not working. I have done several restarts with addons stopped, and cache cleared, but it still happens.

HELP HELP HELP Duplicates continue to be generated as of latest Thunderbird Version 115.6.1. Final Solution?? Running on my MacOS Ventura 13.6.3 (22G436). Fully updated and kept as my babe!! Same as my Thunderbird. Using the [**Remove duplicates...**] official tool to fix it, but continues to appear always after some time.

Use a lot of dayly maintenance on my mails, creating _new-folders_ continuously and moving mails depending on subjects as needed. Continuously maintaining, Always _empty-trash_ followed immediately by _compact-folders_ Always try to do weekly backups.

Duplicates Still never ended since so long been reported!! Any way to fix the issue once and forever??

Do not need/want to suffer a complete platform crash on my loved mailer. Would be a complete disaster. Obviously I keep on backing up once per week.

Thanks a million if you try to help, and kudos if you solve it. Take care.

Hi, Up to previous version (TB 101), I could send emails to any group from my MacOSX contact list which appeared in send field and I used this all the time to select mailing lists. Now the send to a group fills automatically like before, but sending fails with message "groupname <grouname> is not a valid address" Maybe, if it cannot be fixed soon, and the new address book does not feature MacOSX group sending I wsih to get back to previous version of TB where it worked fine. I attach screen captures, my version of TB is in french language Thank you

TB 102.6.1 (64-Bit), macOS, DE locale

TB macOS with GUI on extras "Filter" edit lacks scrollbar in sub-window thus making amending / editing of filters almost impossible on the macOS GUI of TB. This mishap was introduced in TB 102.6.x only recently, I presume.

Please consider correct and fix asap.

Question: How to reasonably edit the textual config file for TB filters in cases like this?

I'm always accidentally hitting the Junk button when I meant to press the Delete button. They are side by side and Junk is one of the most frequent buttons I use. To Delete an email, I just hit my keyboard Delete button I'd like to be able to re-order these action buttons, and if I had this ability, I'd move the Junk button to between the ReplyAll and the Forward buttons. This way if I make a mistake, I just have to close the email window, rather than having to find the Junked email and un-do the mistake.

I never seemed to have a problem with my Mozilla Thunderbird but shortly after the last Mozilla Firefox update my inbound email thru Mozilla Thunderbird come into my inbound email box as DRAFT Messages. this is a big problem because I can't reply and or forward because there is no (((send))) showing up anywhere. Nobody seems to know how to solve this problem so it must be a first. My wife is on the same Home network as I and she has no problem like mine. I hate to reinstall Thunderbird because I don't know if it would interfere with all here computer info especially with her Thunderbird which seem to be OK (( No inbound Draft email Messages )). I use cox as my IP and mail coming into their email does not have a inbound draft problem, nor does AOL or GMail just Mozilla Thunderbird.

What must I do in order to enable address book address information. Now when I try to change address information it is as though my keyboard as been disconnected. thanks

I recently installed Ubuntu 22.04 and now the address book crashes when I attempt to use it to create an email; thunderbird freezes and give me the window stating 'not responding' and if want to force quit or wait. I end up having to force quit. But I use my address book's saved lists for a number of emails, and now this is not working. How can I fix it? I would need detailed steps, as I am not anything but a general user. Thanks.

I had a large number of e-mails in two separate accounts and all of a sudden, they were gone and I had only a few from today. What happened? I need them for records and such.

I had to change my ntlworld.com password as I was getting a 'Forbidden' message from Virgin Media. Now I cannot access my Virgin Media mail through Mozilla Thunderbird.

There is a context menu entry that enables message fetching for individual folders and an about:config setting for doing it for all folders. There is some speculation in a different question that this is necessary to avoid overloading servers.

Is this true and still appropriate? How can I as a user tell what I can set this to?

From a UX point of view it would definitely be better to just check all folders for new mail.
