In Thunderbird 151.0.1 [64 bit] I get the following error message: Error Inbox - inbox on .....[my email address] "There is not enough disk space to download new messages. Try deleting old mail, emptying the trash folder and compacting your mail folders and then try again." I did all of that, even went into windows disk cleanup to free up more disk space. I get the same error message. I have 3 email accounts in Thunderbird, only one account has this problem. When I use Outlook express I do not get any error messages but I do get a malicious email that AVG intercepts. So how can I purge bad email from Thunderbird ? Or what else may be going on and what else could I try ? I have deleted all old emails, in Thunderbird, I routinely delete old emails. Thanks alot Sam

Why the program will not read old zip that thunderbird made,I have watch countless hours of crap on YouTube and still can not read my old zip files, I must be missing a step in process , also I am elderly, so explain it clear Thank you, most appreciated

I did Edit - Find - Search Messages and then Edit - Find- Global Search and searched for messages. Now all the e-mails in my Inbox disappeared. What can I do? Thank you.

When all the comcast accounts migrated to yahoo, there wasn't supposed to be a change but I cannot send or receive messages through Thunderbird. I deleted my old passwords and tried to use the one that works at yahoo but it is not working.

Apparently I also have 3 thunderbirds running on my machine .  I don't know how to get rid of the old ones

I also got an error message that says 151.0.4 is not compatible with 151.0.3

Today I created a subfolder and moved many precious e-mails there. That move was successful. Thereupon I shut down my Thunderbird and my computer. When I restarted my computer and my Thunderbird the folder which I created was empty. Please let me know how I can recover the e-mails. Thank you.

I use Thunderbird and Firefox as my default browser. When I open a pdf file in Thunderbird, a new tab opens with the pdf document but Firefox stays in the background. I have to click on the tab to view the document. I don't remember it being like that before. Is there a way to adjust the settings in Firefox (or Thunderbird) to allow the browser to come to the front right away?

One emails will not download from server. Using the repair folder it says folder is busy wait until finish. All other emails work fine. One email only keeps going back. Thankyou

It's possible to drag/drop contacts from To to CC or BCC.

It should be possible to do so across messages open in separate windows.

But when I try it, it fails.

somehow i managed to import from one email account to another thinking i would like it but i don't like since it just makes me have same mail in 2 places but i don't know and can't find how to cancel the import, can someone tell me how

I have a Postfix/Dovecot server that hosts 10 of my domains from one IP.

When you open Thunderbird, it checks the domains you have preset. I have two. This happens immediately, especially if there is no new mail on the server. Everything works fine.

If you have other domain mailboxes open, and I have eight more, and you click the inbox on each one, Thunderbird stalls at the fifth mailbox, regardless of the inboxes' selected order.

tail -f /var/log/mail.log - confirms this.

I have reset or modified everything I can think of. My server is not throttling Dovecot.

This must be something internal to Thunderbird, possibly related to only using a specific mail server IP for all domains.

Google AI suggests assigning a unique local IP alias to each domain on my server so Thunderbird thinks it’s talking to 10 different machines. This seems extreme.

Any solutions?

Lorsque j'essaie d'ajouter un nouveau compte, la configuration est trouvé dans la base de données des FAI de Mozilla, je clic sur "continuer", dans la fenêtre Popup j'autorise Thunderbird a accéder à mes informations, ensuite j'ai le message "erreur d'authentification". Pourtant mon mot de passe est correcte.

Hi,

I've just updated my Thunderbird for Windows to 151 and I got this nasty surprise (this is why I hate updates these days).

The message list in dark mode, in a table view, now has this awful pitch black background instead of the normal dark brown as it used to have. It looks OK in cards mode, but I don't like cards mode.

I certainly hope this is a bug and not by design. Can this be fixed, please? It looks terrible, it's hard to look at, like old Windows 10 dark mode or some high contrast accessibility mode.

Thank you!

I have a small office with 5 stations to access our one email account and we'd used thunderbird for years, but the lack of integration between the stations meant we changed to Outlook and of course that's a shitshow, so I'm coming back to ask you my self (rather than the tech guy) if there's a way to set up thunderbird so that if desk 1 opens and responds to email 17, that all the desks can see both that it happened and access the responce that desk 1 sent.

We have an IMAP email account hosted locally (as in, not a gmail account, or the like).

I'd be more than happy to pay for a piece of software that I could use. I've used Thunderbird (and Eudora) for decades and I'd like to continue to support it. But moreover, I'd like an email server that doesn't limit my account size (I use email for "corporate history") and one that would allow my individual staff members to see everyone's activity in the email server.

I had most recently (like 6 months ago?) been using thunderbird. My Tech guy said it was the most current version, but I couldn't tell you what it was.

We run on Windows -- most on 11 but a couple still on 10 until I can take the time to set up the new computers.

Hi, For at least two weeks, Thunderbird has been stalling, not responding, and crashing (but not the type that sends a crash report). Every time it begins downloading messages, it stalls. I compacted folders, checked what your forums recommend, and still nothing. I have Thunderbird on a Win10 XPS laptop and a Win11 Dell desktop, new and full of specs. Uninstalled it and reinstalled it. Same. There has to be a bug in the new version, my guess, since it was working perfectly until the latest update. See images from my Win10 laptop right now. Please advice!!! I am at wits' end since I need Thunderbird to do my emailing!!! Or else I will have to find another email handler.

Whilst using TB the screen went white with dozens of little tabs along the top of the screeen with what look like page icons, as the app became 'not responding'. Re-loading didn't help - same screen. Re-starting didn't help. I uninstalled and re-installed TB but it is stil the same. Opening in Windows (11) safe mode produced virtually the same result except for a few seconds I was able to open the hamburger menu and select trouble shooting. Opened in trouble shooting mode showed several alerts of 'failed to connect with servers' (outlook.office365.com imap.gmail.com and Yahoo). Then it shut down as before 'not responding'. When open, TB is using some 80% of available memory., and I can only close it by using Task Manager. I'm a complete dunce at this stuff so, if anyone knows a way out of this hole, please use simple English! Thanks, Jeff

I get the following message when I try to download emails "Unable to write the email to the mailbox. make sure the file system allows you write privileges and you have enough disk space to copy the mailbox
