I have the Android T-bird app on my Google Pixel 9.

I am having constant problems with it not syncing.

This morning, when I swiped down, the kept spinning but did not connect. When i tapped the sync icon at the bottom left of the screen, nothing!

Nothing changed after rebooting the phone, which BTW takes almost twice as long as the reboot on my previous Samsung phones.

I have now uninstalled and reinstalled, and imported my settings using the QR code on my desktop. It imported my accounts, but asked me to sign in or sign in later. There is no link for signing in immediately, and sign in later does not allow any sign in opportunity.

I now have no emails imported to the app.

Any help would be appreciated

Hello, Mi 9 SE with MIUI 12.5.1 Android 11 RKQ1.200826.002 Thunderbird 10.0

I moved from K9 to Thunderbird some time ago without incident. In the last few days I realised I had received nothing and checked on my PC and indeed mails were waiting. I tried to send a test mail from the phone, the mail remained in the OUTBOX and I received the following error message :- "Failed to send some messages ErrnoException: connect failed: EACCES (permission denied)" I checked and this is an Android error and various articles I found that suggest necessary changes to the manifest which I am not capable to change; I am not a coder. I decided to save the configuration, delete and reinstall Thunderbird. After this and reapplying the passwords the waiting mails were delivered. I then tried to send a test message from the phone and again the same error was generated with the phone blocked again from sending or receiving.

I suspect that there was an upgrade applied with a changed manifest that broke the operation of Thunderbird with Android 11.

Can someone please verify this, it may be impacting many installations on older phones?

Many thanks!

Hello, for the last week my Thunderbird android is no longer sending mail.

I revoved and add it again my mailbox. On the SMTP validation I receive this error message: Unexpected end of string

Setup is not finishing.

Trying on here, as I suspect the android forum gets little attention.

I can send email with TB for Android over the Internet from home, but not over the Internet in 4 out of 4 cafes. it's not due to a VPN. It only happens eith Thunderbird, not Gmail or Outlook.

I have setup Thunderbird to check for e-mail each 30 minutes. But I never get any notifications of any new mails :-( And mails are only downloaded when I start the app and swipe down. Folders are setup to sync (but "push" is not enabled). Power settings are set to "Optimized" (works for all other apps that check for things).

Hello, when I try to login to my outlook.cz mail account, I get error screen that says: Server error The server returned the following message: User is authenticated but not connected. I searched online and I found, that I wasn't the only one getting this error. Everyone solved it by disabling ipv6 in thunderbird. I don't know how to do that on phone (I found how to disable it on pc). I have another outlook.cz account that I am logged into and it works fine (I logged in 2 weeks ago). Is it thunderbird problem or should I contact microsoft. Thank you in advance for your answers.

I have TB Mobile for Android Version 8.2 on my Samsung A54 running Android 14. I have done numerous searches, but can not find any way to move an email that I accidentally sent to Trash or Spam back to Inbox (or any other folder for that matter). Am I missing something or is this feature simply not available?

I can do the above with my Yahoo mail on my A54 which has a menu that lets me move any email from folder to folder.

Thanks for any help.

As email threads become lengthy they become unreadable. The older emails turn into displaying one character per line. Is this a bug or something fixable on my end?

I installed Thunderbird for Android today on my Moto g stylus. I used the QR code to import the settings from Thunderbird on my Windows 10 laptop. In general, things seem to be working, but outgoing messages are not being copied to the "sent" folder. I can see older "sent" messages that were sent from my Windows 10 Thunderbird, but no sent messages that originated from my phone. I have an IMAP mail server.

Hi, I use TB for quite a while on my pc. Tried to use TB 4 A. I used the import function. Got 3 accts. Scanned the QR code and it seemed to import all of them. But then I noticed the Gmail POP acct was not showing any entries. I got confused, so I uninstalled and then Only imported the Gmail account. Nothing was there in any folder.

Is there a problem with POP? The documentation says no.

Thanks, Sam

One Gmail account imported all of the settings, including the Inbox. The other Gmail account recieves this:

Please sign in We'll redirect you to your email provider to sign in. You need to grant the app access to your email account.

Sign in with Google

Then the following error, as it won't open to Google to confirm (it did with the other account)

Please sign in Oauth sign in failed OAuth 2.0 is currently not supported with this provider Retry

I just installed Thunderbird for Android on my Pixel phone for the first time. I have used Thunderbird on my desktop PC for many years, so I am very familiar with Thunderbird in general. I used the "Export for Mobile" feature on my desktop installation, to import my account settings into the Android installation.

For the most part, Thunderbird for Android works great, as I would have expected. However I am seeing a problem which appears (to me) to be a bug. When I compose and send an email on my phone, and then look in the "Sent" folder on the phone, the email that I just sent shows up there. But only on the phone. If I open Thunderbird on my desktop PC and look at the Sent folder there, the email that I sent from the phone is not there. Apparently, it only gets placed in the phone's Sent folder, but it does not get copied to the email server.

A few other details: -- I use Thunderbird on 2 different desktop systems, a PC and a Mac. When I send email from either of those, that email DOES show up in the Sent folder on the other system. Emails that are sent from either desktop system also show up in my phone's Sent folder. So I know that the Thunderbird desktop application does upload the message to the email server's Sent folder correctly. But Thunderbird for Android does not upload its sent emails.

-- I don't know if it matters, but my email server is Microsoft 365, hosted by GoDaddy.

-- As far as I can tell, the most obvious setting for this is the "Upload sent messages" checkbox, which can be found in the "Sending mail" section of "Account settings" in the Thunderbird Android settings. This checkbox IS IN FACT turned on. I could not find any other settings which could possibly affect the copying of sent messages up to the email server's folders.

Is this a bug? Any ideas what might be causing this? Thanks for any help.
