I have seen a thread about this, but the request remains unanswered. I am using iMap, for mail accounts in Thunderbird. Under Account Settings you can select folders to be downloaded, but they are only a preset few folders.

I wish to download the folders that I created on webmail. Thanks, Steve

I need to import my mail messages, exported from Mac OSX Mail, into Thunderbird on Windows 11. I have 2 versions of the Mail exports: i) i backed up the Mail folder from the System folder These are [ .emlx ] files in [ .mbox ] folders ii) I exported direct from the Mail app These are [ .mbox ] folders

Thanks for any advice I can get, Steve

Greetings.

For many years I have used Thunderbird to send and receive mail through my Outlook account (while happily donating to Mozilla).

A few months ago, every initial attempt to send a message abruptly started to fail, generating the dreaded notice that “the message could not be sent because the connection to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp-mail.outlook.com timed out.”

What is odd is that if I keep trying to send, the message always goes out eventually -- sometimes after only two tries, sometimes after ten tries.

Thus, my Outlook account works, my Thunderbird settings work, the SMTP server works -- but only at random intervals.

The problem has continued through several Thunderbird updates, including the current one (147.0.1). I tried changing the server to smtp.office365.com and got the same performance.

I am on MacOS 15.4 and am not running any third-party antivirus or firewall product.

My thanks to anyone who has insight into this problem.

Every few weeks I get this error and my bookmarks and passwords are corrupted. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, per the full uninstall instructions, including deleting old Firefox folders and it works for awhile and then returns.

Error: Platform version '147.0.3' is not compatible with minVersion › = 147.0.2 maxVersion < = 147.0.2 Maybe try to reinstall Firefox?

Hello, If I had to sign into my gmail account in order to download Firefox browser, does that mean that my new tablet (that did not have my gmail identity on it before) is now fully enmeshed with the Google identity, even though I will not use it on this new tablet?

This might also belong under accessibility. Or how to organize the screen? At this point I cannot get some messages because there is no space left for it. This has happened gradually but now its impossible. I will attach a screen shot to show the problem. (I would have a tiny bit more room if I could get rid of that line of tags since they come on a dropdown anyway. Thank you so much,

I want to change the folder to which I currently send my spam filters on my Mac. I understand how I can edit them individually and handle new filters, however I have several hundred accumulated filters created over the years and doing so individually will be very time consuming. Is there a method I can use to change all existing spam filter's destination folder in a single step. I know a bit about using Config Editor, Chrome css, probably just enough to get my self in trouble. I see several spam filter files within the Thunderbird folder, but not sure if they are germane.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I'm running FF v147.2.1 on my iPhone. There is NO translation option in the address bar OR in settings. It was supposed to be introduced in v146. Why is it not available despite having a version that is supposed to have the feature?

Hi, I just started using Thunderbird for Android and - so far - I am loving it. One thing I cannot seem to figure out is how to change the color scheme of the widget. Is it even possible to change it? I would like to set it to use the same dark theme I have for other widgets, but the Thunderbird widget stubbornly keeps its white background.

Hi, I did something stupid. I accidentally deleted an entire year's worth of emails. I was in the process of archiving them, and mistakenly thought that the originals had been left in the inbox. I thought I needed to re-archive them, so I deleted the copies from the archive folder, and then - this is the stupid part - emptied the trash in the archive folder. When I went back to the inbox to re-archive the emails, I realized they were no longer there. I have not compacted the folder. Is there any way to recover the deleted emails?

Usually there would be some shortcuts when I open new tab page. But they were gone on the new page from yesterday. Of course I didn't change setting and didn't install any add-ons. I disabled all add-ons. But problem not solved.

I checked 'preferences-home-Firefox home contents', but I cannot see any options(that area is just empty).

I also checked 'about:config' :

• browser.newtabpage.enabled → true
• browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.section.topstories → true
• browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.showSearch → true

And I compared between 'about:newtab' and 'about:blank'. I found something that background color of new page are different. There are some HTML code in 'about:newtab' when I use F12. But I don't know what is wrong with this.

Bought a new laptop and I had my old Dell laptop transfer all my data to my new HP. My email account went thru fine. But for some unknown reason, I couldn't get my Firefox browser transferred, and I NEED to get my saved passwords from the Firefox Master Password manager.

I think I made a big mistake after data was transferred and I started setting up the HP -- (feel like I got 'tricked' into using Microsoft Edge browser) and didn't know how to get Firefox browser so could get my passwords. So unfortunately, I ended up clicking Download Firefox browser and it was a brand new browser like I was a new first-time user as it was 'blank'....like I would have to start completely over. I have been a long-time Mozilla Firefox browser user. I have been desperately and frustratingly trying to retrieve my Original Firefox Browser that has ALL my info that was so handy and easy to use.
