Hi!

I have configured a EWS email account that requires manual configuration (I need to pass the override Office365 settings with application ID, tenand ID,...). When I select manual config I can configure the EWS server settings OK and the receiving part works OK. The problem is the outgoing server is not created OK (it is imap with password setup). I need to use the same EWS to send the email, imap is not allowed in the account. And I cannot configure the account to use EWS as the outgoing server. The outgoing server cannot be EWS and I need to setup one. So I'm in a loop.

For what I have read, thunderbird can send the email using EWS (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-and-exchange), but my feeling is that using manual setup (which I need to do to configure this account) breaks something internally and the outgoing is separated from the EWS receiving part. And I cannot configure back to use the internal EWS configuration in the receiving server part.

Can I do something to send emails using the same EWS configuration? What does the automatic setup to use the EWS configuration? Is there any bug for this situation?

Thanks in advance!

Is this a known scammer - have others been caught by it.

I hope I avoided trouble by not responding and following the instructions I was able to get from Microsoft CoPilot to locate and remove the the dangerous cookies from my PC.

My screenshot shows the cookies that were there.

I need a filter on a message to FULLY FINISH before a next message starts to be filtered. The "help" (quotes because it's an abyssal crap) says that simply ending the filter with Stop Filter Execution does it - but that's simply NOT TRUE: calling a console program in the filter, I can see five DOS boxes opening at the same time with five messages matching, i.e. the filters on the next message DID NOT wait! So... what can I do??

All of the above is because I'm getting "Too many simultaneous connections on the server". I'd like to limit the concurrency, but it only seems to be possible in IMAP, while this connection is a POP. Why only IMAP??!

I'm trying to resolve password issues. I fear that I might lose access in T-bird as I have through my browser.

T-Bird presently works to receive e-mail at two addresses: jfgies@pacbell.net and at jf_gies@pacbell.net. It won't let me send email from jf_gies@pacbell.net.

None of my "they did work in the past" passwords allow me to log in with yahoo or AT&T

I want to use the same p- words with t-bird and yahoo and AT&T

Thunderbird has the ability of use filters to perform automatic actions on messages received. One of the filters is “Forward Message To”. Unfortunately, attempting to forward messages fails. Thunderbird displays the following message:

Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: Request failed; Mailbox unavailable. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again.

So thunderbird mail has this system where old emails spread horizontally across the top of the screen in small icons and if you select and open an older email from the sidebar for the inbox and then want to return to the inbox, the only way I have found to return to the inbox is to click and hold the left arrow on that horizontal bar at the top with the email icons. This is too time consuming. Is there a faster way? Also, is that bar necessary? Why not just have a system that uses the sidebar that actually identifies the individual emails.

I have Thunderbird on the old computer. For twenty+ years I have read the instructions for moving it to the new computer. i cannot understand/am not at all confident in my ability AND I have only ONE keyboard/mouse. I have to move it from one computer to the other to operate them.

Right now all email is on the old computer, no email is on the new computer. No email has ever been on my cellular telephone. One set of periforals - keyboard/mouse.

I DO have the Bravura, the Plugable transfer cable and accompanying software, and many other things came across, but not the Thunderbird.

I want to do the move/installation correctly so that not one stored email is lost or corrupted.

I need help.

Sometime ago, Thunderbird stopped being able to connect with my GMail and Hotmail email accounts. I guess this had something to do with the change to OAuth authentication. I then switched over to Yahoo accounts which worked perfectly until last night when I installed the latest update, i.e. 153.0.1esr (Meadow). Now, I cannot connect with ANY account whatsoever. Thunderbird just stopped working in my two Windows 10 laptops and it does not seem to work on the Windows 11, either, although I have only tried Gmail accounts on that one (without the update), as I cannot possibly be left without an email handler.

If I try to download my emails, I get a screen that tells me that I should “Turn-off ad blockers“ and “Enable JavaScript“ in my browser, but I have tried several (4) browsers as default with the same result. I don’t have either ad blockers or cookie restrictions in any one of them and JavaScript is enabled in all (it is now by default).

I have downloaded and installed “eM Client” and it works *perfectly*. However, I would loathe to have to abandon Thunderbird and get used to an entirely new program, but which is what I will have to do if this thing is not resolved ASAP.

As mentioned, I think there has to do with the OAuth authentication system.

I have even tried ChatGPT, without success!

And there is no way to revert to the previous version !!!!!

Please do something NOW, or it is, regrettably, goodbye Thunderbird!

T-Bird is Freezing (Hang?) from start to freeze was 5 minutes and a few seconds. Have turned off hardware acceleration and now it freezes at just under 5 minutes. Have put on updates. Currently 153.0.1esr (64-bit). I have captured profile, and re-installed and picked up the profile. Still freezes. Turned off AV. Still freezes. I have compressed and "repaired" all folders. Still Freezes. I forced folders to get rid of anything older than 30 days. Still freezes.

I have been running the task manager, and T-Bird in frozen state is only using 4.3% of CPU at most. I do not see any slowdowns for any other program. So this is not a CPU constrained problem. And it certainly is not memory constrained.

All this started within the past month and I think it was after I put on an ESR update (don't remember which one).

I can kill T-Bird and start it and it will get mail if any, and will function for about 5 minutes and then freezes (or hangs). The system is set to fetch mail on start up and then every 27 minutes. I am not using Account hub (and don't know what it does).

One oddity -- This is a W11 Home system, and Mozilla keeps saying it is a W10 system. Could this be the problem? Wife is running a lesser laptop. It is also running T-Bird, but her O/S is a W11 Pro and she is not having this problem.

When I compose an email, often a pop-up interrupts me to say "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 to Local Folders/Drafts-[my email address]."

It then gives an option to retry (which always fails), save or don't save. It's annoying because it pops up repeatedly when I am writing, and concerning if my messages are not being automatically saved.

Does anyone know why this is happening or what I can do about it? Thank you!

The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.

If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection. If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure Thunderbird is permitted to access the web.
