Performance was already poor in v115, but has gotten much worse since upgrading to 128.5. This is a documented bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1906482 Are there any known workarounds? If not, how can I downgrade with losing all of my settings? I have 7 e-mail accounts and a few calendar accounts set up. This took a lot of time, since several of them require app-specific passwords. Thunderbird complains if I try to open a profile from a newer version in an older version of the software. How can I do this safely?

Long-time user here. A month or so ago I switched from 128 esr to 139 release, and since then I have had constant messaging several times a day that folders could nor be compacted. I've verified everything, but the message still happens with annoying regularity. I saw on Reddit that this may be a known bug, but thought I would report it to the forum anyway. Hope that it will be resolved in the next release.

I have a fresh install of ubuntu 24.04.3,... on my AMD 'go-faster' PC. S/w all up to date,.. and snaps up to date. In my pursuit of migrating TB email from one m/c to another,... nothing works,.. least of all the TB i/f. My TB screen looks as follows:- with only a few seconds in-between shots. This 'font' type issue is my primary problem,.. and is consistent even if a create a 'new profile',.. emails are display still with funny fonts, ( which change as my mouse moves over them ). secondary issue is in copying over my '.thunder' folder structure, from one m/c to new one,.. is TB insists on creating new profile,.. as it reports profile is outdated,.. yet as far as I can see both are running TB 140.2.0esr 64 bit. I have tried several clean installs,.. but results 'seem' to be the same. Does anyone have any ideas...

After wasting hours trying “this and that” – I did successfully "import" (not in the “import” menu) a single .EML (text) email file into my TB 115.10 e-client? I can’t remember how – and can’t duplicate it.

Yes, I know there’s an “extension” to do this, but if I did it only with TB 115.10 – why deal with the paranoia of permissions (must have access to everything)?

I need to “move” about 4000 emails from an ancient ISP (still used, too) into my TB 115.10 e-client – to then move to ”Folders” and then archive off-line. I can download emails (to my folder) from the ISP only individually as .EML files – and did get one successfully into TB (it reads [looks about the same] as an email “retrieved” by TB).

I can only “download” individual ISP emails (their rules, programming) so, hoping to set up a macro to “download” about 100 per day. My ISP inbox is almost full every day with new emails that must be deleted or “moved” due to new emails arriving every day.

Any ideas – or better still step by step suggestions?

Responses in Spanish are fine – French or Portuguese workable.

How to do a "hard string" search in TB? I have asked this question several times over the years and never got a real definitive answer?

I need to find the one email in 1000 that has ONLY these characters in only these spaces ONLY in ONLY this order. Only. I do not need to see any searches that begin with these characters or end with these characters or contain these characters I ONLY want to see ONLY searches with exactly this character in this first space and only this character in the second space, etc ...

The ability to all related to my "string" is fabulous (and much harder) most of the time, but sometimes, I just need to see ONLY that strict "hard string".

It's a basic beginner programmer compare operation. Should be easy, How do I do that (and only that)

Thanks,

I have been getting the message below stating that my inbox file could not be compacted. It says I might not have enough space on my hard drive, but it is less than half full with several hundred GB free. It also says that I might not have write privileges, but clearly, I have been writing to it to store emails and save various other files.

What can I do?

Hello,

I am using a MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019) 2.3 GHz Intel Core i9 8-core processor 16 GB 2667 MHz DDR4 memory

When I launch Thunderbird, the fans start up. As soon as I stop Thunderbird, the fans stop. When I close Thunderbird, I receive an error message (see attached).

Could you help me?

in inbox suddenly some mails became empty and cannot be deleted nor moved nor archived, other messages not affected. It happened earlier and was asked to delete the inbox folder, that worked. But again same problem happening on the same email account, other accounts no problem. See screenshot, the bad ones have red star. Clicking on bad ones: empty screen. MacBook Pro latest OS and software

How to get rid of Welcome to Freedom screen to access my email? I thought it wanted a donation but that has not solved it, and clicking Release Channel does nothing

Sometimes message pane box got blank on one or two of the messages. I tried disabling hardware acceleration, did not help. I can clear by restarting Thunderbird. What is causing this? I am on a Mac M2 processor.

When I use Mozilla's VPN service...many mozilla vpn servers will block me from sending out emails giving this error message:

Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: Service unavailable; Client host [23.234.88.xxx] blocked using clients.rbl.e-scout.net; host 23.234.88.xxx blocked due to abusive behavior from your network. Please contact servers@ispn.net for resolution.. Please check the message recipient "xxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.com" and try again.

Mosilla's VPN service is blocking its own Thunderbird software from functioning...lolol Are you going to fix this Mozilla??? Looks like you're tripping over your own feet...

Recently when I download messages they are blank in the inbox, but when opened they are in source code! This happens with all accounts. It was working correctly up until 7th August. The only update since then was for .net! I'm running latest Windows 11. When I uninstall, then reinstall Thunderbird, initially any messages download correctly, but any further downloads revert back to the problem in question. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Ray

I have an e-mail in my TB in-box. The mail contains a hyperlink to Facebook. When I click on the hyperlink, I get the message copied above in the Subject of this problem. In almost all cases, if I re-click on the icon in the e-mail, the re-click takes me to the desired URL in Firefox. My Thunderbird is 128.11.1esr (64-bit). Why is the first click producing the error message? Would there be anything in the TB Error Console?

Today every time I open my e-mail account I get the following error message: "The folder Inbox on (my zoominternet e-mail address) could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space, and that you have write privileges to the file system, then try again." Never seen this error message before today. What should I do to get rid of it or correct the problem? I am receiving e-mails, but I haven't tried to send any. Thank you.
