Thunderbird for Android Community Forum

Hallo, I have installed the "Thunderbird " app on my smartphone as I already have this programme on my PC. Now I want to export the dat, but I get a message described above

"Bestätigung der Identität" - Überschrift "Windows Sicherheit" mit Eingabe von Benutzername und Kennwort Confirmation of identity- heading windows Security by entering user name and password.

I don´t know the password. Can`t I change the password?

I have now entered all possible variations of passwords, but nothing fits. I have signed in to Microsoft, can still access my account, but no longer use it. This password is not accepted either. So I can`t create the QR code.

Can you help me? Anne Buchholz from germany.

Hello (I don't speak english very well) I want to install thunderbird app on my smartphone. First : I see this picture → Mozilla Thunderbird_1.png Second : I see this picture → Mozilla Thunderbird_2.png But I don't know how to find this "confidential code" Thank you and have a nice day Alain

Every time I open a message I'm presented with the 'Show remote images' button which I have to click on to see the images in the email. I understand this is a security issue, but like the desktop version, I thought there might be an option to 'allow remote content' from the origin that would be remembered for all future correspondence. Is there a way to eliminate the need to always click on 'Show remote images'?

I presently use TB on my Windows laptop and recently installed TB for Android on my Moto phone. Until now I have used Gmail but I want to use TB instead. I have a working Microsoft email account (waterways.org.uk) on TB. Now I want to create accounts for a talktalk.net and a live.co.uk email address. When I first open the TB app, it asks me for an email address so this suggests to me that the servers haven't been set up yet. Is there an easy way to do this?

I want to export my calender from my computer to my mobile

This work for Outlook an i want the same at thunderbird

In Thunderbird for Android, when I set up first account, I was asked if I wanted headers only, or full email, and I picked full email. When I set up a second account, I was not given that option, it defaulted to full, and I have not found a way to change that. Can I set that per account, or are all forced to be the same as initial selection?

I want to keep using the original mail app on my phone for primary email account activity, and use Thunderbird on my tablet for multiple lesser-used accounts. But when using tablet would like to be able to monitor the primary account, and possibly use its address as the sender when forwarding an email from a different account (I do this on desktop version now). Is this possible? Or too much mixing and matching? Thanks

Hi,

I changed my Google account password, but now find I get the below error screen when I try to reauthenticate the thunderbird android app to use it to handle my Gmail account.

I cannot figure out how to mark Email as spam. I thought I could set swipe action as spam is a choice. However, the left swipe function does not seem to work except for delete. And right swipe does not work at all.

This is NOT a question, it IS a solution to a problem with Thunderbird mobile. Please read below. (I did not report it as a bug because I'm not sure whether or not the setting is intentional, but it is causing problems.)

My web host recently migrated their email servers to #MailChannels. As a result, I suddenly found myself unable to send email outside my domains from Thunderbird #mobile. (However, I could still send to and receive from my own domains, and receive from senders outside my domains -- and Thunderbird desktop was unaffected and working just fine.)

After multiple emails were exchanged with web host support, an answer was finally found: in the Thunderbird mobile app, go to General Settings > Privacy and enable the Hide email client option. Doing this removes an incomplete #User-Agent entry from the headers and allows email from Thunderbird mobile to be successfully processed by MailChannels.

The web host support technician who relayed this solution to me earlier today also said he had encountered this issue several times today. In my opinion, Mozilla should consider a) removing the incomplete User-Agent entry from the headers; b) enabling the Hide email client option by default; or b) making current and future users of the Thunderbird mobile app of the potential problem and solution so they can determine for themselves the appropriate action.

However, it is up to Mozilla to determine the correct course of action, if any. I hope this helps them become aware of the issue so they can make that determination.

Since past few weeks I have been observing that read/unread status of my emails are not correctly being synced.

I'm almost always finding that emails in my gmail account that I have already read on mobile appear unread when I open gmail on my pc browser. Same goes vice versa. Entire same thing also happens for my outlook account.

Any solutions?

Is there a way to get the attachments at the top of the message?

Since they are at the bottom by default, a lot of scrolling is required in case of a long message thread.

Having the attachments on the top after the subject line will solve this for me.

Hello, I dont know why but one of my email accounts set to constantly push didn't work last night and I missed a couple of important ones and I can't have that happen again. What can I do to troubleshoot this, because I can't use a client that can have a malfunction in something as basic like this. Also, it's not the first time. So it's random and sporadic that one of my addresses can't have email pushed when sent.
