With the moving of Cox emails to Yahoo would it be feasible for Thunderbird to put an instruction list(with screenshots) of how to get all our TB email accounts from Cox to TB? Do we have to delete all our TB email accounts and re-enter them into TB under the new Yahoo or can we just change the server settings on the existing Cox settings? If just changing server settings what are the settings for the new yahoo? All my accounts are IMAP so if instructions could be made, maybe one for IMAP and one for POP for those who use either. Thank you

As of today, I am unable to scroll with my mouse in google sheets. The scroll bar on the right disappears and I'm taken to the bottom of the spreadsheet and can't scroll back up. I have to use CTRL+Home and then the arrow keys to go down the rows. This appears to be only on Firefox. I tried a different browser and it worked fine.

Starting this morning I suddenly cant delete or mark emails as read in Outlook.live.com. Even if I open an email, and it appears as read after that, if I refresh or leave the page and come back, its marked as read again.

I tried dropping all add-ons (a kill switch to drop all add-ons and re-activate them is still a feature I feel Firefox needs, I have to click every single one of them every time) to no avail.

I was in the process of writing this question on the Microsoft forums (which is usually like whizzing in the wind) when I thought to try a different browser. I had zero issues and Outlook.live.com worked perfectly normal on Microsoft Edge.

This HAS to be a bug in a recent update in Firefox

Clicking on Firefox icon to log in I receive following message and gray screen. firefox.exe - Entry Point Not Found " The procedure entry point Flush could not be located in the dynamic link library C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\xul.dll." Followed by another pop-up. "Could not load XPCOM" There was an automatic up-date several days ago and I have had this problem ever since. Is there a fix?

After the recent update to Thunderviurd 115.6.1, every time I try to download email, I get the following message:

"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."

I have plenty of drive space. I did compression of the inbox. I moved a large amount of old emails to Archives, but it still gives the error.

Windows 10 version. 32-bit Thunderbird though. Not sure how to fix this guys.

Thanks for any help. I suspect the latest version has a bug...

SMTP Server User Name across multiple email accounts

115.3.1 Can no longer send email from multiple accounts. SMTP Server User Name used to be unique for each account. Now, it is the same across the accounts causing this message: "An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: <kbkelly@wi.rr.com> sender rejected. The email address you are sending as must match the email address you used to auth. Please check your SMTP settings. AUP#Out-1500. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again."

I can change the User Name to the correct one but that changes it for all other accounts and I'm back to the same problem. How to solve/correct/work around/whatever?

As an aside: what the heck is "auth"? Please use the full word. It does make it easier to understand.

Thank you.

On Windows 11 I used to be able to click on the Firefox icon on the taskbar to open Firefox which still works however when bringing Firefox back to the foreground after being minimized or in the background of another app it will only give me the option to select one of the tabs that I have open instead of just opening it back up to the previous tab I was on... Is there a way to fix this? This doesn't happen with Edge or Chrome...

A new version of Thunderbird got installed on my system now and I keep getting messages from defunct accounts indicating there is something wrong with my password or it can't locate the server. In all cases I have unchecked the boxes in server settings, including "Check for new messages at startup" and "Get new message every __ minutes". Unfortunately it still seems to want to log into the servers and I can't find a way to disable that behavior. I have kept the mail account because I didn't want to lose the emails. I still refer back to them at times. I've been using T-bird for a long time and have 8 or 10 of these accounts. Please tell me how to convince the system to stop trying to access these accounts.

Thanks, Jim.

Oauth2 for smtp.office365.com not working

I'm using Thunderbird with an office365.com account. Receive works fine. Sending always fails with:

   Login to account "smtp.office365.com" failed
   Login to server smtp.office365.com with username NAME@DOMAIN.COM failed.
   [Enter New Password]              [Cancel]  [Retry]

Pressing the [Enter New Password] button makes the dialogue go away, but it doesn't prompt for a password. The OAuth2 authorisation screen I expected to appear never appears.

SMTP server config is:

   Description: 	NAME@DOMAIN.COM
   Server Name: 	smtp.office365.com
   Port: 	587
   User Name: 	NAME@DOMAIN.COM
   Authentication method: 	OAuth2
   Connection Security: 	STARTTLS

The only other thing I can think of is the org uses SSO (saml2). SMTP is turn on at the Microsoft send, and we have tried Vincent's suggestion: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1307784#answer-1376341

Ever since Thunderbird's latest update (Sep-23 / Oct-23), the "link" or "hyperlink" (Ctrl +K) feature does not work when drafting an email. When I enter the command to add a link (e.g., Ctrl +K) the page freezes as if a dialog box is there somewhere for me to populate what I'd like to link, but no actual dialog box shows up allowing me to input the URL I'd like to link to. Anyone else experiencing this and have a solution? Thank you!!

2 weeks ago (9/27), Thunderbird 102.15.1 stopped downloading emails from AT&T/Yahoo POP3 account.

On 9/29, I upgraded to 115.3.1, but still getting no downloads from that account, though on the Yahoo web interface, I can see emails are coming in.

POP server: inbound.att.net, Port 995 (default) TB 115.3.1 on Windows 10 PC

AT&T is my ISP, and my email address has their swbell.net domain, hosted by Yahoo.

Other swbell.net POP accounts with same configuration on this installation of TB are still downloading emails, as are IMAP accts. (Though IMAP accts are not AT&T/Yahoo ones.)

I emptied Trash and compacted the inbox to no avail. Also deleted Inbox.msf, and let Thunderbird rebuild it, again to no avail.

Clicking on the “Get Messages” icon results in the bottom status bar saying “Checking Inbox for new messages…”, but nothing happens, and after a few minutes, that line disappears.

Does anyone have other suggestions? Thanks in advance, Ed

I just had the newest version of Thunderbird intalled. I've spent an hour trying to figure this out and I don't have time for this crap. There used to be a menu items for Tags that would drop down and you could select a tag or remove a tag. This doesn't seem to be in the new version of Thunderbird. Granted, there is a way to do what I want to do, but it is a pain in the ass! Can I get the "Tags" menu item back?????
