Remove the thunderbird request for donation so I can access my email. I have donated to thunderbird today. Don't send me an email because I cannot access my email because your request covers the whole screen. Please call me at <redacted>.

I'm in the process of cleaning up Thunderbird e-mail before moving to a new computer. I started with 11,593 e-mails in my Inbox and 7,799 e-mails in my Sent folder. I'm now down to 7,634 in my Inbox and 4,965 in my Sent folder. I've allocated 2 weeks for this process and found that it's taking me about 3 hours per day to meet my daily goals. I'm finding that I'm spending at LEAST half the time responding to "Empty-Trash/Compact-folders" requests. There are times I can delete 50 e-mails at a time without getting a request. Other times I will try to delete ten e-mails and get the request. With the old version of Thunderbird I could literally delete hundreds of e-mails at a time. Can you help? Russ Bukwa Yardley, PA ps. I have intentionally given you specific numbers. Based on my software- and test-engineering experience, I speculate you need to create a stress test to solve this nagging problem.

Having selected multiple messages, I'm trying to move them to a new sub-folder, however this option seems to have vanished! I've installed version 139.0.2 (64-bit).

Since 17th June any email I send to an hotmail account is being returned with the message

This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification.

Delivery to the following recipients failed permanently:

  * (removed)@hotmail.com

Reason: A message that you sent to the following recipient could not be delivered due to a permanent error. ** The remote server ?? responded with: ** (removed)@hotmail.com ??:?? This message was created automatically by mail delivery software on the server .

I have not made any changes, and it worked previously for years - do you have any suggestions as to the problem? I have tried sending to 3 Hotmail accounts and are all being returned - all other emails work correctly.

I am using plusnet.

Hello,

Recently I have started to have emails fail to deliver to a certain domain and the message that comes back is

550 DKIM Sender Invalid - envelope rejected.

I am using Thunderbird v128.8.1 esr (64-bit). Extensions installed are: 1. Attachment Saver (Deimios, v.0.2.2) 2. FileLink provider for Send (Teal Dulcet v2.1.1) 3. Remove Duplicate Messages (Eyal Rozenberg v0.6.1)

I have been in communication with this client for several years and not had this problem before. When I send email to the same recipients using WebMail there is no problem, it is only when I send from Thunderbird.

I am not using any encryption type of setup.

Has anyone come across this before? Does anyone know of a solution?

Thanks, Franc.

I am able to style tasks that are either completed/overdue/inprogress in userChrome.css . But so far I have not found a way to style canceled tasks.

Can someone help me ?

I'm lost about how to get back into the program. I already had Thunderbird and tried to re-install it. After that it asked for my name and e-mail address & password. I forgot the password.

Hello, I want to delete all incoming gmail messages. I have set up a filter but instead of deleting them it puts them in the Trash folder.

Is this the expected behaviour?

I have both a "Sent" and "Sent Mail" folder; both have slightly different URLs when I check Properties ("Sent" folder shows imap://"myname"1%40gmail.com@imap.gmail.com/Sent and "Sent Mail" folder shows imap://"myname"1%40gmail.com@imap.gmail.com/%5BGmail%5D/Sent%20Mail). I don't need both of them; which one can I delete...and HOW do I delete it? Right-click doesn't have "delete" option.

I receive email fine. The website email works fine. I cannot send email via thunderbird and have not changed my settings which worked for years. my smtp account. I have rebooted my Windows 10 pc numerous times. What can do this? How can I fix this>

I suspect there is no fix and I (possibly) can restore from backups, but I would sure like to know what the issue is.

I tried retrieving an e-mail from the "folder" where I kept e-mails from 2023. The "index" one sees displayed for the folder had e-mails from Jan-Mar of 2023, but Thunderbird froze when I tried to open any of them. I tried the repair function (which I imagine is meant to rebuild the .msf file), but after than the index contained nothing from Jan-Mar. I opened both the .msf file and the no-extension file in Notepad, but I see nothing from those months.

Any clues/help would be appreciated.
