Ich habe Thunderbird als Standard-App für E-Mail eingestellt und Gmail dafür abgewählt. Doch wenn ich einen E-Mail-Link klicke, sprich tippe, gibt es entweder gar keine Reaktion oder Gmail will den Link öffnen. "Rechtsklick", sprich langes Tippen funktioniert. --

I have toggled thunderbird as standard and gmail off. But either there is no reaction at all, if I click an email link, or gmail wants to open it.

Hey there. Hope you're all doing just fine.

TL;DR Tried moving all my email messages from GMail to Infomaniak. Worked fine because I can see all my old GMail messages now on my Infomaniak Inbox using Thunderbird on my PC. But my phone refuses to show me the latest messages. It only shows me messages from 2025. --- Now with a lot more detail. I use Thunderbird as my email client of choice on both my Android phone and on my Linux (Manjaro) PC. TB on the PC is running 140.8.1esr 64 bit flatpak installed. TB on my phone reads 16.1 and has been installed from the github repository using Obtainium. I use IMAP for receiving and SMTP for sending. No POP3.

I have two email accounts. One at GMail and another at Infomaniak. Up until recently, I've only had the GMail account set up on both my phone and PC. I've been using Infomaniak as webmail just for testing. But recently I've decided to add Infomaniak's to both my Thunderbirds and move all my emails from GMail to Infomaniak. I used Google Takeout to download the mbox files (inbox, archive and sent), then using my PC I loaded the mbox files in my "Local Files" and finally I moved the messages to my Infomaniak correct IMAP folders.

It all looks just fine in my Linux PC. But on my phone I can only see messages from 2025 on my inbox. And I have many messages from 2026. I can see them using TB on my PC, or via the webmail. They just won't show on my phone.

EDIT: It only shows me messages from 2025 and prior to that. But it doesn't show me all messages from 2025. Many messages from 2025 are also missing. And from previous years too. This is not happening on the inbox folder only. It is also happening on all the other folders too. It's as if TB was filtering the messages. It's driving me nuts.

I've already tried clearing TB's data and import my settings. Still only have messages from 2025. What could be going on with Tbird on my phone?? Thanks in advance. Cheers

Hi,

I really love thunderbird and want to move away from Outlook.

I am experiencing a delay in Push emails compared to my Outlook app. I am committed to get emails as soon as they are received by the server. For example I've observed recent emails 10min later in Thunderburd than Outlook to my Inbox.

I have my Inbox set to "Enable Push". Is there anything I can do to improve the speed of delivery vs Outlook? Both apps have same settings for Background data, and 'Allow background app usage'.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

I like very much Thunderbird very much, but I had to move recently to use an Android device, that is my main computer now. I normally work with four email accounts, and I sometimes need to move emails across different accounts. I found out that it is not working on the mobile app. Are there any plans to include this functionality in Thunderbird? Thank you very much.

I have my settings to confirm deletion in message view, but not from notifications. I've had to re-set them several times over the past month or so because it keeps changing back to confirm deletion from notifications. I think it's happening when I need to restart my phone, but it does it at random too. How do I fix that?

Trying to add twc email to this email manager first said UN /pw not correct , finally changed password still not going thrgoogle states change email charter area to mail.twc.com still won't go thru. Twc is my main email so if it won't load up I'll have to use something else what else can I do? Thanks Lora

I use the same e-mail address on my desktop and my Samsung android phone. I was told to change my desktop e-mail from POP3 to IMAP which I did and then told by the Thunderbird desktop forum to change also my phone settings from POP3 to IMAP. I was told in order to do that I needed to create a new account first and then delete the old account.

However, when I go into server settings and I put in my e-mail address from my desktop, it states "e-mail address already in use". Clearly I do not want to create a new e-mail address - just use the same e-mail address that is on my desktop so that I can access e-mails on my phone that appear on my desktop. Help please!

I currently have Thunderbird installed on both my android and desktop (W11). My android inbox does not mirror my desktop. For example, desktop inbox shows many more emails than the android inbox. The ones that are in both are the same. Why doesn't the android inbox mirror the desktop version?

Additionally, I used receive a ton of junk mail when using Edison mail. Now I receive very little. Sounds like a good thing but occasionally one gets flagged as span and it isn't. They continue to show up in the Edison mail spam folder but not in Thunderbird.

I was hoping to drop Edison mail and use Thunderbird exclusively, but I need the confidence before doing so.
