Hi.,

 Cox cable just discontinued their email server and moved all it's email accounts to Yahoo.

I had been using Thunderbird successfully with Cox for several months before this happened.

 I am able to send and receive emails now via my new online Yahoo server;  however I have not

been able to connect / use Thunderbird to send and receive emails since the Yahoo changeover. I have tried many things, but I either get a "failed" error message or a "timed out" error message. Yahoo support has not been able to figure this one out. They are hard to get a hold of and hard to understand (communicate with). They are overseas from the US.

 I appreciate any help you can offer.

Kind regards, Ken

Suddenly almost everytime I load a YouTube video I have to watch 2 - 4 min of ads, sometimes two in a row before the video starts. I no longer have the skip ad button. If I load the same link in Chrome or Edge I don't have this problem. My search engine is Duck Duck Go, but if I go to Google first and then to the video I still have the problem. I also have the Maleware Bytes ad blocker installed. Any suggestions?

I very very recently upgraded to Windows 11, but even though I have Firefox and Thunderbird running with no problem, when I click on an email address on a website, instead of going to Thunderbird, I get some Windows email app that I never saw when just a month ago when I was still using windows 10 clicking on an email address would bring me right to Thunderbird. How can I get Windows 11 to use Thunderbird and only Thunderbird. I am not a techie, so if you know a solution, please be as clear as possible. Thank you.

For some reason when I try to download a screenshot of [this tweet] it fails every time; I tested it and it's just that tweet specifically. This has never happened before and I assume it's just a bug since copy-pasting still works. Any help with this?

I'm very confused. I've been using Thunderbird as my email server for a few years. Recently, I stopped receiving emails December 12, 2023. I sent in a problem according to the help page that I found. I believe Mozilla is now the server for Thunderbird? I don't even know if that is accurate (part of my confusion). I followed prompts and confirmed my email address, apparently I now have a user name. I still can't send or receive emails. Can you help. I need step-by-step instructions, please.

I've been using TB since the beginning. But now I have a zillion entries in my various address books and would like to consolidate them into a single, non-duplicated collection. The only tools/extensions I can find are only for really old versions. Any ideas for method and/or extension or tools to accomplish that? Thank you in advance. BobMCT

I have a personal family domain, with email service - my provider supplies me with a number of pop3/smtp addresses.

I have a Thunderbird a/c setup on a desktop running Linux Mint, thgunderbird version 115.5.0 (64-bit) SUPERNOVA using one of the pop3/smtp addresses - husbandATmydomain.me.uk and I receive emails from another of the domain's pop3/smtp addresses, sent by my wife from a Windows 10 laptop using Thunderbird, under the address wifeATmydomain.me.uk

Her Thunderbird a/c is correctly set up in her Thunderbird, to use the smtp server for her email address, wifeATmydomain.me.uk. There are no other addresses or identities set up on her thunderbird account. My thunderbird a/c is correctly set up to use the smtp server for husbandATmydomain.me.uk and has several other pop3/smtp addresses able to send addresses using their own smtp servers.

In MY Thunderbird address book my wife's address is given as wifeATmydomain.me.uk, with the display name "wifefirstname surname".

When I receive an email sent by my wife, to me, it appears in my Inbox with the Correspondents column showing MY name not hers. This means I am constantly missing emails from her. because her name is not visible in Correspondents column, but mine is there instead.

The Reply To: and From: addresses are correctly given as wifeATmydomain.me.uk when I examine the receive email details. It is only displayed with MY NAME, in the Correspondents column in the Message list header pane, using Classic View. Everything about her emails displays correctly in Message View, using Full Headers display.

The only thing I could find in research was to make sure her a/c was using the correct smtp server. It is.

How can I fix this please?
