Forum zgromaźeństwa Thunderbird

Two days ago my Thunderbird was working perfectly. Since then, something happened and I have no idea what it could have been.

When I go to the CenturyLink ISP website, I can get my email. When Thunderbird worked two days ago, it could get my messages from 4 different email accounts at centurylink.net with Thunderbird.

Now, when I attempt to connect it says "Login to server pop.centurylink.net with username khalmeigh@centurylink.net failed." It offers the option to enter a password, which I tried repeatedly. Same thing. No ability to retrieve email, and again, nothing changed.

If I go to centurylink.net, I can retrieve my email. There is no problem with the email address, nor is there a problem with the password, or the host.

I've been using this program for a year and it suddenly stopped working. There is nothing wrong with centurylink.net.

had the need to start a fresh thunderbird profile.

now I forget which setting(s) allow for thunderbird to scan the local folders, NOT the internet, for new mail.

any suggestions?

thank you

I have used Thunderbird for years for two emails. Suddenly about a month ago I get and authentication failure for server imap.gmail.com for the second email. I have tried everything I can find to fix this - including deleting the account and re setting it. I still get the error and am forced to use my browser to see that gmail account. My primary account works fine and the setting are the same for both. How do I fix this?

I use gmail and recently started using Thunderbird. Somehow Thunderbird started archiving all files. I am ok to leave the historical archives but I do not want to archive going forward. Account setting message archives is unchecked. There is no filter created to archive. Config does not contain an archive instruction. How can I stop archiving?

We recently switched to Clearnet Worx, dropped century link. Since then we have not been receiving emails from ppl and organizations that we want email from. Internet reception is fine but we can't figure out why we are not receiving email from ppl and orgs in our address book. We actually received a call from a friend who said his emails have been kicked back. I don't think our email box is full but I've not figured out how to check that.

I've been using Thunderbird for years at this point and it was fine, but then some time after the latest update I stopped getting new emails. I tried a bunch of random "solutions" I found on the internet and I don't remember exactly which one, but eventually I got the web portal to pop up, and it showed that I'm logged out of all my accounts (they all gmail, btw). Using this windows I was able to log back into one of them, but then it didn't popped up again to let me to log into others. For a day or so I was getting email from that one account I logged back into, but then again, suddenly, no new emails. I decided to just start over on a new profile and that's where things went from bad to worse. Now I can't even get past the initial logging process. It gives me "unable to log in at sever" over and over, no matter what I try. I tried a bunch of different config suggestions, I tried the old school way of getting a device password, I've checked if localhost was running something - it wasn't. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, installing an older esr version (I'm on Win10, thought maybe that has something to do with it) - same thing. Unable to log in at server. I can switch back to my old profile that doesn't get any emails anymore, I've backed it up, but what's the point. Kinda feeling screwed on all fronts here.

Also, whoever is replying to people on reddit with "thunderbird employee" badge, ghosted me after one message. Great support /sarcasm.

Version: latest (whatever auto updated updated to) and 140.8.1esr OS: win10. Mail provider: gmail.

Hi:)

I am unable to retrieve an already downloaded email (with attachments) from my INBOX to RECEIVED IMPORTANT MAILS.

All other mails (without attachments) can be clearly seen in the RECEIVED IMPORTANT MAILS folder but the ones with Attachments (irrespective of the size of the attachments) do not show.

I can see that email with attachments in my Thunderbird INBOX but the moment i move those mails to the Folder: RECEIVED IMPORTANT MAILS, it doesn't show. This issue, however, is not there on my other systems that also have Thunderbird installed but on my WINDOWS 11 laptop. I am using Version 149.0.1 (64 bit). Is it a storage issue because this particular issue has been cropping up only since March 28th.

Looking forward to your help!

Thanks and regards, Nauman

in Thunderbird I have the window with the email header lists. I receive mails with icons/emojis (stars, flowers, birds, ...) in the subject line which are annoying. In particular, I dislike the 4 angle star in front of the line for some of them. I would like that they are not displayed. how can I achieve this? other email clients make this possible. Thank you

I've tried Troubleshoot mode, everything I can seed for filtering options. I still see the folder has 12 messages in it but the window always shows No messages found.

No topic listing above for this Thunderbird Calendar issue. Calendar events disappear completely. I have been scheduling series events using the weekly repeat. Then modifying the few that change. Somewhere the whole series just disappears. Example: PT-Kathleen was input as Monday at 11 to remind 3 day's in advance and repeat for three months. Then I modified several that were scheduled differently. All is good for several weeks then 1 the reminders no longer work. Then the whole series disappears. This has happened for about five of these series and I just put all the stuff back in. But, then that disappears also. Any thoughts things I should setup differently?? tired of redoing things multiple times. Robert Kelly

Hi,

Can you please have a look at the following problem: I decided to re-index my mails. after I realized that the search results did structurally not contain any messages from 2026. I deleted the global-messages-db.sqlite. However, this did not lead to the desired result. After processing some folders, I can see in Activity Manager that the indexing stands still after having processed about 20% of the "Sent Mail" folder of a gmail account. I waited more than 12 hours, but the number of indexed messages did not increase. The file size of the global-messages-db.sqlite at this moment is only 2.3 KB, while the original database was more that 300 MB large.

I already tried the following without success:

1. restarted TB
2. deleted the database for the second time
3. restarted my PC
4. repaired said "Sent Mail" folder

I am running Thunderbird 140.9.0esr on Windows 11.

Many thanks in advance for your replies.

I have successfully added my primary Google Workspace email address, authenticating through OAuth 2.0. I'm adding a second user, but even though I sign in using the Google popup, OAuth isn't listed as an Authentication method under Server Settings, and no email is downloaded.

I have been using Thunderbird with two POP3 Hotmail accounts for some time and I am trying to set up a third account with exactly the same configuration. However, both the automatic and the manual configurations failed. The new account receives mail, but the outgoing smtp server config seems to have a problem. Sending messages times out or keeps prompting for a new password.

The Hotmail account has POP3 and IMAP enabled. Thunderbird is set to receive all cookies. I cleared history and cache after every attempt and also temporarily disabled the firewall.

Any suggestions about what the problem could be?

Hello

I just recently purchased a new SSL certificate for our domain from bluehost. Now I get the following error message from Thunderbird.

Configuration not trusted. We received the configuration for your email over a connection that isn't as secure as we'd like. This means there is a tiny chance that someone could have altered it. Double check provided configuration.

I entered my server dashboard and compared the manual email settings and the settings match exactly.

I have paused anti-virus software on both my mobile and laptop and have uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird but nothing helped. Contacted Bluehost all is working fine. I can access my email from other clients but not from Thunderbird.

Any thoughts thanks

Attempting to set up a yahoo email in thunderbird 140.9.0esr(64-bit). The goal is to have this set up on multiple workstations, so I've made the adjustments recommended per this article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-and-yahoo#w_please-check-the-following-before-asking-for-support

So, the toggle for mailnews.oauth.usePrivateBrowser is set to true, site/third-party cookies are always allowed (no exceptions), and the authentication method is set to OAuth2. Using the recommended server settings for yahoo: imap.mail.yahoo.com : 993 smtp.mail.yahoo.com : 465

I am able to set up the initial OAuth. The window pops up, I log in using the account password then put in the texted code, then the window closes and I get an email confirming the login. Hitting done within Thunderbird after this has it check the password again, and it fails: "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password."

This is on a fresh Windows 11 install/fresh Thunderbird install.

In my work account on a Microsoft Exchange server, we have public keys for all users in LDAP. Sometimes an encrypted email message from a known user fails to decrypt, instead showing a panel with no menu: "Thunderbird cannot decrypt this message". Errors are sporadic: for a few senders, all messages fail to decrypt on my Thunderbird, while for a few other senders, all messages successfully decrypt. For most senders, it seems to randomly depend on the particular message. In one odd case, a chain of replies can be successfully decrypted up to a point, and from there on, all replies fail to decrypt for me. We've looked into all the settings, and we've tried variations where someone sends me an encrypted message without signature, then another with encryption and signature. Nothing seems to consistently cause or avoid the error, it just seems to happen randomly.

Can someone recommend a way to diagnose the problem, for example debug logs?

It would also be helpful to try manually decrypting the raw received message using openssl. Is it possible to find it somewhere in the `~/.thunderbird/` area?
