Each time I open TBird, I get a message at the bottom left of the screen telling me that TBird has deleted X number of messages. I do not want TBird to ever delete any messages. How do I turn this automatic delete function off?

I have a suspicion someone is reading my e-mails. I am using Virgin Media as my ISP and have changed the password on my account.

Is that enough to stop my e-mails being read by someone other than me or what can I do to protect my inbox, please?

With a new Thunderbird installation on Windows 10 Pro, I attempted to import my profile data from a Postbox on another machine. The process failed, citing two errors (see attached screen shot), EmptyDatabase Error: "blocklists/addons-bloomfilters" has not been synced yet Uncaught NS_ERROR_FILE_NO_DEVICE_SPACE: Component returned failure code: 0X805200010

The profile being imported is pretty large -- around 20Gb, so I wonder whether I have surpassed some capacity limit. I was doing this via the Import Tool on the Tools menu.

Porting my legacy mail folders is crucial. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hallo, ich habe gesehen dass ältere Mails in meinem Posteingang zwar noch von der Überschrift vorhanden waren aber wenn ich drauf klickte waren die Mail leer, ohne Inhalt. Ich habe dann den Rechtsklick gemacht und auf reparieren gedrückt - jetzt sind diese Mails ganz aus dem Posteingang verschwunden!

Ich hab nun im Internet ein bisschen gelesen, da wird davon gesprochen die msf (?) datei zu suchen und diese zu löschen. Und beim neuen öffnen von Thundermail würden dann die Mails alle geladen werden...Ehrlich, da traue ich mich nicht so wirklich dran, löschen hört sich immer so "böse" an...

Zur Verdeutlichung: ich habe den reinen Posteingangsordner und in diesem Posteingangsordner liegen viele Unterordner als seperate Ordner. Und eben diese separten Ordner die als Unterordner im Posteingangsordern sind dürfen NICHT gelöscht werden!

Also Hände davon lassen oder kann da nichts passieren?

Danke schonmal für Eure Hilfe.

We are undergoing an accessibility audit of all our information communication technology solutions for a local government entity. This audit is to ensure our compliance with the updated Americans with Disabilities Act Title II Rule on Web Content and Mobile App Accessibility regulations in advance of the April 2027 enforcement date.

Does an Accessibility Conformance Report or VPAT with the WCAG standards used and conformance level noted exist for Thunderbird? We are hoping to find these for Thunderbird Desktop as well as Thunderbird Mobile (iOS and Android).

Hi,

I'm running the latest version of Thunderbird 140.12.1esr on 15.7.7 (24G720) on an M1 processor.

I'm witnessing Memory leak > Thunderbird who usually use 800MB jumps to Gb up to 60Gb

It makes this version unusable.

Here is a loom of the incident: https://www.loom.com/share/0b8e661b42d64d749d80adfd71fd1e04

+ a screenshot

Anyone can help ?

Best Olivier

My wife has a computer that hasn't been used for about 7 years and it contains a lot of emails that she would like to have on her newer computer.

The older computer has an older version of Thunderbird which doesn't allow the Importexport ng extension to be added.

Although I've copied her old profile, I can't see how to extract the emails from it into the newer version of Thunderbird on the newer computer. Is it possible and if so, how please.

Thanks.

I have 2 hotmail accounts - one gets mail as normal the other stopped on 28 April. Checked and settings are same for both except actual email address name. Till 28 April both worked normally. Haven't tried either starting another account for the problem name or deleting existing as don't want to lose anything. Haven't updated to latest version for same reason. How to fix please?? Cheers and thanks

Why is thunderbird constantly coming up with an authentification failure while trying to connect to outlook.office365.com every time i try to access my hotmail emails? this is becoming painful last week zero access to hotmail then worked for a few days now nothing again.

Hello all,

Apologies if this is going over old ground. I've tried the usual Repair Folder fix without success and I'm cautious about trying anything further without some expert input for fear of doing more damage.

Thunderbird version: 140.12.1esr (64-bit) Windows version: 11 Server type: POP, messages not left on server Inbox " Folder properties" reports: 16384 messages. 13.8GB on disk

The Entire contents of Inbox disappeared after the following sequence of actions: 1. Tagging a selection of messages (in Inbox). 2. Making only those tagged messages visible (using Quick Filter). 3. Selecting all of the visible messages (select first, shift-select last). 4. Deleting the selected messages (Del key) The intended messages were successfully moved to the Deleted folder.

The Inbox now appeared empty. At this point only tagged messages were set to be visible but these had been deleted so an empty Inbox pane seemed correct. Resetting the tags visibility of Quick Filter did not make the messages reappear.

The messages are however visible and openable when doing either a straight folder search or when using a search folder. Inbox Folder Properties reports that the messages are still present and the reported size on disk seems appropriate for the number of messages.

Messages in all of the other folders are visible.

At this point I did a complete Export of the profile. When I discovered that Windows would not recognise the resulting .zip file I also did a straight copy of the Inbox file within the profile folder to a safe location (I understand that the export .zip file is intended for re-import to Thunderbird and that Windows might not recognise it).

I then did a Repair Folder (within Folder Properties dialogue). This made no difference although the size of the Inbox.msf file reduced dramatically (I didn't make a note of the before and after sizes).

I then quit and restarted Thunderbird several times. This at first made no difference. After perhaps 3 or 4 restarts however a relatively small number of files have reappeared in Inbox (a tiny percentage of the correct total). Curiously, most of these (but not all) are marked as spam. Ordinarily I would delete all messages marked as spam but there are probably some that I have missed. It looks rather as if the files which are now visible in Inbox are ALL of the spam messages plus a handful of others. Of the 172 messages which are now visible they were initially correctly reported in the folder pane as being 172 unread messages.

Another strange thing is that when selecting the Inbox on the folder pane, the small number of messages which become visible only appear after a delay of perhaps 10 seconds (previously this was instantaneous). When selecting any other folder, the messages are displayed instantly.

I'm not quite sure what best to do next. I haven't yet tried deleting the Inbox.msf file. Any wisdom will be gratefully received.

Thanks in advance.

que faire sans détruire mes mails? salutations respectueuses

My old email address was [redacted] @USIWireless.com. I got a new email address: [redacted] @icloud.com I am trying to set up my new email address with Thunderbird and when I do the steps I get an error message. "Unable to log in at server probably wrong configuration, user name or password. I am using my new email address with its password. Not sure what to do next. I would really like to get my new email on Thunderbird. Any assistance would be much appreciated. Thank you for any help! Anthony Berka

I've asked this before to no response. I JUST did a new search and found a users solution that I just tried to no avail. Which was to add the Provider for Google Calendar Extension, then unsubscribe and resubscribe to my Calendars! The old W7 version of the Calendar had the ability to have a Reminder EMAILED to oneself! That option with the new W11 version has disappeared! Can someone please ask the Coders to re include this option! THANK YOU! I 'LIVE" by this option! My Iphone 3rd party Calendar thankfully still has this option! But I would LOVE to have this back on my W11 Laptop in the Thunderbird Calendar!

Is there a bug in the code for v152? I need to connect to a ms office 365 email account with requires OAuth

The create new account process does not work, because it forces you to go through the whole (manual) process which then fails because you cannot select the Oauth option from Authentication method dropdown box - because its not there !.

This URL with the process to add OAuth: https://www.bing.com/search?pglt=419&q=setting+OAuth+in+thunderbird&cvid=22ed20c67b3843d58ddbc136bed2f174&gs_lcrp=EgRlZGdlKgYIABBFGDkyBggAEEUYOTIGCAEQABhAMgYIAhAAGEAyBggDEAAYQNIBCTExMjgyajBqN6gCCLACAQ&FORM=ANNTA1&PC=ASTS

fails at Step 2 because it does not let you complete to then go to Step 3 - because the account is never created !

How do I fix this ? thanks

Something seems to have changed recently with the PDF rendering in Thunderbird. I received an email with a PDF file attached. When I view it on the screen it looks fine, but when printing it out from within Thunderbird part of the top of the first page missing; it looks like part of the image is behind a white rectangle.

When I save the file and print it using Acrobat Reader it renders fine.

I don't know what to make of this behavior, but it does seem to be new and there is a difference between how the file is printed from Thunderbird as opposed to printing using Adobe Reader.

Thunderbird 152.0.1 on Windows 11 PC.
