I can't find in mobile Thunderbird address book. It is not convenient to fill manually Adresse of Adressat to write email. There's no way to keep email address of people in email in non existent address book. Can you help?

Hi Van

1. You first need to grant Thunderbird permission to access your contacts. Long press Thunderbird's launcher icon > app info > permissions.

2. In Thunderbird: Select settings > general settings > display;

  1. Tick "Show correspondent names".
  2. Tick "Show contact names".

3. To pick an email address from your contacts

  1. Open the message compose screen.
  2. Press the 3 dot menu button (top right).
  3. Press "Add from contacts".

Hi

Thunderbird for Android doesn't have it's own address book. It allows you to select email addresses stored in your phone's contacts app, e.g google contacts.
