For the past two days (Aug 20,2024) I have received NO emails and CANNOT send. I get the message, "because the connection to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.gmail.com timed out." I have tried reloading Thunderbird with no results. The email zfhanna@gmail is also on my phone. My Tbird is on an IMac and Windows 10 laptop. Neither works. For Wifi I use a satellite provider.

Hello!

I´m having some really weird issues opening mail with attachments. Sometimes they open normally and other times the mail body is just an endless stream of random characters and it slows down Thunderbird drastically.

These mails are in my local folder and saved from a Gmail account.

I have many mailing lists. If I try to create a new message, any mailing list name turns red with a yellow triangle. The send button is greyed out, message cannot be sent.

I already tried replacing spaces in the mailing list name with underscores. Did nothing. I rcreated a new mailing list called "Test" (one word, no spaces) with only two names in it. Same thing happens. None of many mailing lists which used to work can be recognized anymore.

Thunderbird version is 115.14.0 (32-bit), running on Windows 7 Professional SP1

Cannot Send files created after Thunderbird Clint Opened

So I have Thunderbird 128.0esr (64-bit) installed on Ubuntu 24; I have found a strange issue when I try to send emails with attachments. In this scenario, I scan files in from my scanner to a network folder, and then copy that file from the network folder to a final location, where I chose from Thunderbird to "attach"

If Thunderbird has been opened prior to the document being scanned and created in the first network folder, if I try to attach it to a email, it does, however, when I try to send I get a error "I do not have permission to access that file"; Strange. I close out Thunderbird, re-open, and try to send the file again, and BOOM, no issues with file permissions. I have replicated this many times.

Any ideas? I have tried running "thunderbird" in console to see if any debug information shows up, it does not. And yes, "closing the program and reopening it all-things-equal" always fixes the problem.

My COPY context menu item is greyed out randomly. I guess it's not an issue of websites preventing copying. Happens while visiting various websites.

There's an advice to refresh Firefox, but I want to keep my passwords and avoid setting bookmarks again or resetting UI items displacement, any advice? Bugzilla threads contain some fixes, but as I have up-to-date version of Firefox, the bug is still randomly present.

I couldn't open links in emails. I tried all the "solutions". None worked. I then went to SETTINGS\GENERAL scroll down to Files & Attachments. Under Actions, click the one next to HTTP, then USE OTHER. It said there were no apps for this. I clicked the left gray bar on the bottom below No applications, searched for Chrome and double clicked it. I did the same for HTTPS. everything works now.

Hi,

This a a problem with the interface of a website, its missing a lot of the sections of text and stuff. The first attachment is what it looks like on firefox, and the following one is on safari. I've tried disabling the security limitations on the site to no avail. I'm on Mac.

I am suddenly (without having changed anything knowingly) unable to send emails or reply to emails. I get the following message: ELNK003_308 - https://postmaster-earthlink.vadesecure.com/outbound_error_codes/#_308. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again. I have checked and the email address is correct. As I said I had not changed anything knowingly. I did go into settings and changed the outgoing to no authentication. After restarting, I still get the same error. I have no idea what to do.

This AM opened to 115.12.2 - completely different to what on yesterday. I am asked to configure an account with TB. I use my old email address and password. This works but now about a third of my sub boxes containing saved emails are missing. The ones that show up have no messages in them.

After clicking back and forth on the various options I note a line at the bottom of the page saying that emails are being downloaded to the various existing boxes. Eventually they have mail in them BUT only old mail to about 2019.

The questions are - where are the missing boxes/folders and why only some of the mail in the others?


I know where my profile info is on the hard drive. In 115 where do I read the name of the profile file it is using?

Thanks for any help.

I have just added another gmail account to Thunderbird. I'm using the portable version 115.12.2 (64-bit) on Windows 10 Instead of just seeing the Local Folders and a few folders I've made myself, I can see the Imap folder I think it is, for the email account just created. However, it's supposed to be Pop3 and everything works from local folders. I've compared the Gmail settings against an existing account and they are identical. I've also compared the smtp settings for the new account with an already established one, and once again all settings are identical. Yet for some reason this account appears as a main folder underneath the Local folder. I'm stumped (yet again) and am sick of wasting so much time to try and fix and getting nowhere. I'd love some help please to suggest what's gone wrong?
