I recently moved to using Thunderbird for my emails on an iMac running MacOS High Sierra. I am baffled by the number of email erasure/disposal options I was suddenly presented with, namely: 1. A "Trash" folder, with trash bin icon; 2. A "Junk" folder with a flame icon; 3. A "Junk" folder with no icon; 4. A "Junk E-mail" folder with no icon. Confusingly, some of these folders are not provided with an "Empty deleted/junk" option! Can I completely delete folders 3 and 4 (the one without an icon)? And finally, how can I set things up so that the deleted and junk folders are automatically emptied at set intervals?

Many thanks in advance for any assistance!

Hello Forum!

My GMail account is approaching the 15GB limit and so I will need to migrate my email from one Gmail account to another, specifying a date range. range (i.e., any email sent before June 2015). Can Thunderbird help me to do that? If so, what is the process I need to go through?

Thanks in advance to all who reply, Dan

I keep receiving this page - https://accounts.google.com/_/bscframe - when I try to add a Gmail account to my Thunderbird Beta 127.0b1 (64-bit)

How can I add a Gmail account to my Thunderbird which already has some email accounts (Gmail and others)?

Thanks for any help you can offer.

I have Thunderbird version 115.5.1 installed on my Windows 11 laptop. I have logged into my gmail account and subscribed to google calendar. I have turned the off default reminders for events and don't have any extensions installed, but when I create a new event and select "No Reminder," Thunderbird automatically sets a 30-minute reminder. I can modify the reminder by editing the event after saving, but I can't directly create a new event with no reminder.

Within 24 hours this weekend I was notified by my anti virus application (Avast) that they are no longer supporting Firefox browser (to concentrate on Outlook and Chrome), and a political news website that I frequent (Meidas) blocked me with a "captcha" type puzzle. The website said my browser was mimicking robot or bot use. I was presented with a puzzle requiring me to slide a tab rightward. It repeatedly told me I had slid the tab incorrectly. I believe all of this happened after an update of Firefox about the middle of last week.

Running under latest Windows 11 Firefox 126.0 will not start unless I click Run as Administrator. I changed permission for my User acct in Firefox to Full since I am the administrator but the problem persists

Good day,Thunderbird keeps deleting messages older than 1 month. I have checked the settings of my account as well as thunderbird and both is on do not delete messages.

We use this account for business and would like to search emails older than a month for references.

So within the past couple of days my twitter/x display setting suddenly switched to "Lights out" from "Default". I can reset it in t/x settings but if I close my browser it resets back to "Lights out" on reopen.

However, this same change happened with other browsers chrome and brave, but if I reset it on t/x it remains changed for those browsers if I close them and reopen.

When I say close I do not mean just that window/tab. I mean close the browser completely and restart it.

What do I need to do to get FF to retain this t/x setting?

I'm experiencing an issue, when I visit this website in Firefox, some images appear broken, but they display perfectly in other browsers. Has anyone else encountered this problem or have any suggestions on how to fix it?

I have two monitors; I keep my taskbar on the right monitor and run Firefox on the left monitor. For some reason, whenever Firefox gets minimized, the window moves to whichever monitor the taskbar is on (I've done some testing to confirm it is specifically the monitor the task bar is on). Because I also run a program called max.to to separate my right monitor into different sections, this action of minimizing to, and restoring to, the wrong monitor is also resizing my Firefox window.

Is there any way, any option I've overlooked, that would get Firefox to minimize and restore to whichever monitor is is actually running on?

I've attached an image that shows, as best I can get it, the window moving over to the task bar monitor when minimizing.

Hello, Mozilla Community Hope you doing well, I'm contacting you to ask for help with a Mozilla Firefox problem I'm having with trying to visit the following website: Geometry Spot Games: https://geometryspot.com/ It won't load, and I'm not sure if that's because of a bug in the website, a browser issue, or something else entirely.

Does anyone else have knowledge of this problem or recommendations for a fix? I've attempted removing addons and cleaning the cache in my browser, but the issue still exists.

I would be grateful for any advice or ideas on improving the usability of the website. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

I have Firefox running on Screen #3. The website that I use with my radiology clients opens popups and I want these to open on Screen #3 as well. However, they are opening on Screening #1. How can I get them to open on Screen #3?

Thank you.

My work schedule revolves around the first Thursday of the month. Creating events recurring on the first Thursday or Friday is not a problem of course.

However, I am trying to set up recurring events /relative/ to the first Thursday, e.g. for the Monday of that week.

Can this be done in Thunderbird Calendar? Happy to do some manual editing of calendar files if that would help.

Thank you!

I am now not able to make video calls on my firefox for Mac browser. (It now says "Video calls not supported on this browser). I used this not that long ago, and it worked. Now it does not for any of my contacts. What can I do to resolve this?

/edit: moved thread from Firefox for iOS (iPhone/iPad) to (desktop) Firefox section as you said you have a Mac (using macOS).
