My Sent folder disappeared. How do I restore the folder with the sent messages still intact. Or, at the least, just restore an empty Sent folder. The In-Box, Drafts, and Trash are still there.

All the settings are correct, and it seems that because there's no Sent folder I cannot send an email. When I try to send a message I get the attached Error.

My local phone company routes email through Yahoo Mail, then to Thunderbird. It was all working fine until my Sent folder disappeared. Now because of the missing Sent folder I have to create the email message in Thunderbird saving it in Drafts so I have a record. Then, I have to copy it and send it from Yahoo Mail. Needless to say this is a pain in the you know what.

Can someone please provide the instructions to get my Sent folder back?

Thanks,

Tess

Proszę o informację. Kiedy wysyłam maile podczas pracy w biurze jest wszystko w porządku maila są odbierane i wysyłane. Kiedy próbuję wysłać maile będąc połączonym z internetem w domu lub internetem bezprzewodowym, lub udostępniam go z telefonu to maile nie są wysyłane i jest komunikat Przekroczono limit czasu połączenia z serwerem. Co mam zrobić jeszcze w tamtym roku nie było tego problemu. Nie jest to problem programu antywirusowego ponieważ na próbę go wyłączałem. Wersja Thunderbir 128.8.0esr (32 bity)

My system is Windows 11 x64 Thunderbird 128.8.0, a system check shows an update is available version 136.0, but can not find any reference to that version. How can I update to that version?

I'm running Thunderbird 128.8.0esr 64bit. I see that many extensions are saying that they work on versions including 137. I see that the newest release is 136.0, which has at least one feature I like: a way to globally set threaded or unthreaded messages. What about 137? Is it still in beta. Is either one of these worth upgrading from 128? Thanks!

My work uses a 3rd party URL "defense" program, so every link that comes to me via e-mail is sent to that "defense" 3rd party, instead of directly.

The Thunderbird "link mistmatch" then activates *every time* I have links at work.

Looking online there *used* to be:

 mail.phishing.detection.mismatched_hosts

but it does not work any more.

None of the "phishing" settings prevent the link mismatch from appearing. I could not find any other "mismatch" settings.

How can I avoid this horrible annoyance???

'thunderbird' Windows 10 has been locking shortly after powerup. Simultaneously instead of updating my email, Thunderbird has been pulling down the entire mail server file. How best to recover?

I hear notification sounds throughout the day many times but without an actual email coming through. Can you help? I am referring to my Thunderbird email. The notification sounds occurs but I am not receiving an email after. Therefore I am concerned I may be missing emails trying to come through and want to know how to make sure that I am not missing emails?

I tried the following to add voice search to the Firefox browser in Windows. I followed the instructions in the attached but when I open a new tab voice search is not in the search bar. I returned to about:config and the two settings = true. Why did it not work as it was supposed to?

A new voice tab opened amongst my open tabs and when I select it, it's Google Voice. I then select for personal use, I then have a choice from Android. iOS and Web. I select Web. It then says Google Voice is not available yet in my country (UK).

I use voice search a lot on my Android phone and tablet and would like to use it in Firefox.

How do I report an issue with the way NVDA and Thunderbird interact? When I tab, I can't out of a link, and the focus does not move. If I tab to a link in a message then arrow down, I am where I expect, but then if I go to the top of the message, the tab focus remains where it was when I last hit the tab key. This is not standard behavior, but everyone else I've talked to seems to think it's behaving normally and has no tips for me on how to fix it.

I bought a new android tablet, installed TB v 8.2 and can't see a printer in the app. "Share" doesn't offer print option. I can print from Chrome. uninstalled and reinstalled - no joy

Hi Have used thunderbird on pc for years no probs. Just downloaded TB to android 14 and swipe options don't work except for delete. How can I get the other options to work? Thanks

Guten Tag, eben hat sich ein Ordner mit wichtigen Mails in einen Unterordner verwandelt, der an anderer Stelle nur versteckt auftaucht. Wie kann ich das rückgängig machen, so dass er links in der Leiste wieder richtig alphabetisch einsortiert ist? Vielen Dank für jede Hilfe wi.kr

In the past week or so I have noticed that some emails disappear from one inbox on my Windows 10 PC. I have three Thunderbird accounts (call them A, B, and C), and the emails only disappear from box A. It seems completely random, and furthermore they only disappear on my own PC. My husband has an identical set-up on his Windows 10 PC, which also includes the boxes A, B, and C, and the messages do NOT disappear there. I can also see them on my iPhone and two iPads, and they do not disappear from those. I have tried forwarding them to myself from my phone, and while most of them did show up in the A inbox on my PC, I have noticed that some of them have now disappeared again.

This is incredibly frustrating, because I do most of my work at my PC. I thought I needed an update, but TB says I am up to date (128.8.0esr (32-bit)). It can't be anything to do with the server, because it is so specific: one inbox on one PC only. There doesn't seem to be any special pattern--some have attachments, some don't.

Many thanks for any suggestions!

I forgot my password and am unable to login to investigate an issue. I recently installed a new modem and since then my incoming emails have dropped off to almost nothing. Wondering if there is a technical issue and how it may be resolved?

Hi - I am having a problem with where Thuderbird is sending attachment files. I have "Save files to" set to C:\C Drive Documents\Attachments2 but the attachments are showing up in C:\Users\laroc\AppData\Local\Temp\pid-3656. This just started happening about a week ago and I just noticed today when I looked in "Attachments2" for a file but could not find it.

I restarted the computer. Did not help.

I re-installed Thunderbird and that did not help either.

Any thoughts?

Hello,

I have an email on several computers: office@company-aaa.com. Configuration via IMAP but TAG synchronization does not work for me. The first TAG works for me: Important (red color, shortcut button with key no. 1). But the rest do not synchronize. Generally, I use about 20 tags, but one more tag also synchronizes but incorrectly, (the third with the ninth on another computer).

I looked through the prefs.js file, but I do not see any connections or reasons why it does not work. How to manage this so that all Tags work? Please help, it will make my daily work in the team much easier. Regards. Grzegorz
