Because gmail is removing support for "Check mail from other accounts", I'm thinking of switching to Thunderbird. The current size of my 18-yo gmail account is 62GB. But gmail is in the cloud, and profiles are on the device. Assuming Thunderbird profiles would have a similar size, this would be a nibble on my desktop, reasonable on my 1TB laptop, but half my total storage on my android Pixel 7. Can I limit my mobile's profile to the previous year or two of email? Are there other solutions? Thanks.

I received an IMAP email as normal, from an email address that I often write with. What I always do: the IMAP inbox is forwarded move on arrival to the local inbox. It had an attachment, and I downloaded that as normal. Then after 5 minutes I wanted to start work on the reply to the message in the local inbox and ... the message was gone. Nowhere to be found. Not in the IMAP inbox (of course), not in junk, not in trash. I looked in the on-line IMAP account, and there the message was present as normal.

Then I searched for the email and there it shows: in "Inbox". And I see one strange thing that I never saw: column Message threads says: "This subthread is ignored". So that is the problem. Probably I hit accidentally some key (k ?) and this caused the "kill".

Now how to un-ignore it? There is this Help page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/ignore-threads and it says: "To un-ignore a thread that has been marked ignored, select a message in the thread, right-click on it and again select Ignore Thread. ". But right-clicking the email (in the search results) shows NO such option.

What can I do? Thanks!

This is from Cabelas.com but I am getting it more and more from other web sites. American Airlines, Delta.com, etc. I accessed the help and did all the steps about fingerprinting and turning off "enhanced tracking protection" and nothing helps. Any ideas? Don't like the idea of using Chrome or Edge, but Firefox is almost unusable for me now. If I have to keep using another browser for the sites, may as well just use that one only.

Recently updated the app and now the search bar is broken and doesn't show any suggestions from the web/engine. It doesn't matter what engine I'm using as I've checked multiple to see if the problem persists. The only thing that works is Firefox suggest and all it brings up is some obscure random searches from my browsing history from years ago instead of suggestions from the Web on top. If I enter settings, toggle things on and off, then return to new tab then it will work for one time, but then it's back to how it was.

Running Thunderbird 140.6.0esr in Windows 11. This afternoon I found that one of my three accounts no longer shows up in the folder pane, though it still appears normally in the account settings tab. I can still send mail from it, but can't receive any. The other two accounts appear in the folder pane as usual and can send and receive normally.

Any help getting the account back into the folder pane would be appreciated. -- tralfaz

Hello, I have a problem.

Before an emergency move, I transferred my calendar data from my Windows 11 PC to my laptop (Windows 10). The calendars worked perfectly there; entries were added, etc. Since yesterday, after eight months, I've access to my Windows 11 PC again and am trying to transfer the calendar. It's not working.

Two of my calendar files imported, but my large company calendar file (3200kB) won't.

I now know it's too large, so I tried manually splitting it (using Notepad). Part 1 (500kB) imports, but Part 2 (488kB) doesn't. I also tried using Google Calendar, same problem. However, this calendar file works perfectly on the laptop.

What can I do? It contains data for eight months plus future dates.

Best Michael

Very little to do with accounts, but none of the selectable topics cover 'user Interface'.

Used to be able to open different accounts in different windows. Can't remember how, but it was obvious. Once new window is created, each time Thunderbird is started it re-creates them. I accidentally closed one and can find no way to re-open it. I use three email accounts each needing a different mindset, so keeping them in different windows helps. Also one has a screendepth full of folders and so is easier to handle in its own window. (The others are still there but only take up one line each when collapsed.
