I have created several address books in Thunderbird for my contacts. How can I add all the names in a particular address book to one of the fields such as Bcc without having to add them individually?

Thanks.

I am using version 147.0 (64-bit).

I just started having a issue where it will be for example noon , and I just get a email , that is not on top but down the list and it says 9am , or similar times where it is 1 or more hours later from the time on the email , but it just showed up , but its down on the list of recent emails , so for example I check emails and a few come in or I get a notice that I have a new email

I have Thunderbird minimized in the taskbar , I never close it , and it will show a email from a few hours ago that just came in , but its below emails that I have already read that were after that time , so basically its like some emails just randomly appear that didn't get delivered when they were supposed to along with the others at that time , this is not a 1 time thing , this has happend several times over the last few days

I can't find any Setting that allows me to choose Newest Emails on Top , or to check the Time to see if it thinks its a different time of day than it is when delivering , or to bring in emails in order of delivery time , newest first and so on , so if a email has a Delivery time of 9:38 am I actually recieve it at 9:38 am , for example I got a email showing the time at 12:48 PM as delivered (10 minutes ago , but I just got the email now at 12:58 am) , then I got one time stamped at 11:15am , and 11:13 am , and at 9:38 am , , the 9:38 am email came AFTER I got the 11:15 email by about 30 minutes , and the one I just now got (it was 12:58pm when I got it , but it shows a time of 12:48 pm so 10 minutes difference from the time it shows delivered to the time I actually got it) , this is while my email is open and I am looking at emails ..... Email Version .. 147.0 ..

Any Ideas ??? .... Thanks .... Jim

The New Line (Enter) key always double spaces, which is intended for paragraph text. But for tabular text, this makes unnecessary white space. What key combination generates only a SINGLE new line character rather than TWO of them?

Example: Donor: xxxxx Email: xxxxx Phone: xxxxx Billing Address: xxxxx Bank: xxxxx; Account ending in xxxx

This screen defaults to single spacing; why doesn't Thunderbird allow it?

I've read this is a common issue but hoping maybe things have changed? Trying to make a filter that says move to the junk folder email where subject starts [SPAM] (the hosting service adds that) UNLESS the address is in an address book, BUT I also need to accept everything from numerous domains. I see work arounds "if the address ends in @somedomain.com" but then I'd have to do that for every domain I want to receive from. Any email from any address where I have put *@domain.com in my address book should be let through. But I know TB doesn't accept wild cards in the address book. There MUST be some way around this? Thanks.

good day....ii hope someone can help. the other day i was accessing my yahoo account spam folder and by accident, i deleted the spam folder instead of emptying it. the spam folder is now sitting in the trash and i'm unable to remove it from there. when i log into my actual yahoo account, the spam folder is where it's supposed to be and not in the trash. i tried removing the yahoo account from thunderbird and reinstalling it in hopes that it would rectify the problem, but it hasn't. does anyone have a solution?? i would greatly appreciate any help you can offer. thank you for your time...mike s

What font can used in Thunderbird that will display a capital I with top and bottom bars? Otherwise it's impossible to determine whether the letter is an capital i or the letter L.

Hallo,

ich möchte ein web.de-Mail-Konto in Thunderbird verknüpfen. Obwohl alle Eingaben und das Mail-Passwort richtig sind, kommt immer die Meldung: "Fehler bei der Authentifizierung. Anmeldung auf dem Server fehlgeschlagen. ...",

I used to be able to send an email or forward an email by clicking on "forward" and my address book would show up at the left side of the screen and I could click on the names I wanted to send or forward the note and it would add them to the "send to" of my email so I could send it to multiple people. For some reason that has now stopped and I can only send to one person at a time which is very cumbersome and time consuming. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? I hope I'm describing it right.

Thunderbird downloads from Gmail (a POP server) spam folder. It should only download from the "Inbox", isn't this correct? Gmail is not IMAP, which would dl all folders? Downloaded phishing and spam emails which come from the Gmail spam folder always have an incorrect time stamp.

Hey. New to Thunderbird. I am using the Linux version. I have a couple annoyances I'm sure are configurable, but I can't figure out. FYI, using IMAP and unified folders.

1) I'm watching mail retrieval in the status bar. Seems very one mailbox at a time rather than all at once making mail retrieval much slower than something like Apple Mail. Can that be changed to all at once?

2) This one really irks me :) I'm sitting in the trash folder and right click on it to empty it. It shows it does empty in the status bar, but the messages are still showing in the trash folder. If I click on another folder then back on the trash folder it shows empty. Why does it not refresh to show the current state of the mail folder?

I am getting an error for an outdated certificate on my mail smtp server and when I try to add a security exception Thunderbird does absolutely nothing when i click the button to add a security exception where I can send mail. I end up having to cancel the window and discard my email. It will also not go view the certificate and if you ask it to check it just hangs up forever in and endless loop of checking.

I am using a E-mail server that uses LetsEncrypt certificates. I was using Thunderbird 128 ESR without problems. When the certificate was updated, I was requested to confirm - then sending E-mails was possible. Now I have updated to Thunderbird 140 ESR. The E-Mail servers LetsEncrypt certificate was now updated but in Thunderbird I do not get any information about this, nor get I requested to check the new certificate. The SMTP connection just fails. The IMAP access to the E-mail server works fine. (IMAP and SMTP work both fine with K9-Mail on my mobile device)

How can I get Thunderbird to ask me again to check the updated certificate?

Hi all,

After thoroughly searching this database, I could not locate an answer to the issue I am facing, although there seem to have been several similar cases.

My former university has recently decided to delete alumni email accounts, so I am using Thunderbird for email transferring from university to GMail (added both accounts to Thunderbird and then began copying emails and folders). Transfer is slow, depending on the server capabilities etc., but I am going folder by folder and so far it has been fine. I began the transfers a week ago.

Last night I noticed my Thunderbird inbox for my school is not showing anymore. The profile folder is only showing one file (.msf) for Inbox, instead of what should be, in my understanding, two files.

Thunderbird is still communicating well with the university email server because I made a folder rearrangement on the university webmail service (outlook.com) and it showed on Thunderbird. In addition, all my Inbox emails appear fine on the university webmail service (outlook.com).

Any ideas? This is obviously important and urgent.

Thank you in advance.

Why do I have to do this every time?

Is there a setting I can adjust? Or is this just how it is with Gmail?

Hello, My SMTP server uses Let's Encrypt certificate. The website with the same domain has no certificate. Thunderbird refuses to connect to my SMTP server. Test connection to the server (STARTTLS) in account settings sais "The secure connection to the server failed" (or similar. I see bg localization). Another server with Let's Encrypt certificate. Test pases. Clicking View certificate shows webserver cert (from DigiCert Inc).

I can't send emails! :)
