Hello I am setting up a new Windows 10/11 Computer, with new virgin Thunderbird installation. My "old" TB mails on the "old" computer I would like to migrate to my new "Local Folder" and keep it for future reference (archived in read mode, but keep it accessible with the search function). How, and what do I have to move with the window explorer to the new W10/11 computer. I was reading up a lot but I am rather confused now. Thanks for helping

My email provider calls its junk folder "Spam". Many years ago I had to set up accounts tied to this provider (IONOS) to have a Spam folder. Otherwise, account would not imap correctly to the mail server. Today I noticed that my Spam folder is not there. When I try to create a new folder, TB won't allow me to create one with the exact name "Spam," as if the folder were already there. What is going on?

When I do "save as " action for an image in the browser it opens dialogue window to save selected image. Unfortunately it displays files and folders in some random order, rather than my preferred order (sorted alphabetically by name, followed by sorting by type).

I can see no rhyme or reason to the way Firefox lists files and folders in the dialogue window, so every time I am saving an image I have to sort things by name and type before I can find what I want.

This is not permanent so I have to repeat this action every time I save an image.

How do I, please set application preferences? to make this setting permanent?

Howdy! So this problem started today, and I can't find a solution or reason it is happening. The only variable is that I grabbed my address books from my old pc and transferred them over to my new pc. I didn't change any settings, just put my address books on a thumbdrive and brought them over. I've been using my new pc for about a week now, and no issues until today.

Normally when I double click on an email, and it opens in a new window or tab, the status of the email in the email list automatically becomes "read", ie the little green dot becomes a little grey dot. For reasons beyond me, it has stopped working. The email stays in "not read" status, the green dot remains. It's driving me crazy, as only pc problems can. Anyone else having this issue? Oh, and yes I shut down and cold booted the pc and nothing changed. Thanks in advance!!

When I had my internet provider help me change the ports so I could set up thunderbird, some of my email and folders were automatically imported from Outlook. But I cannot see most of them. If I try to create a new folder from the top level (above inbox), I can see ALL my folders to choose from, but I can't when in the inbox. Why and how do I change this. I am not a techie so I can't understand answers that aren't broken into simple steps.

Hi I use a PC running Windows 10. I created a new email adress using Outlook. All is displayed correctly in Outlook.live (subir inbox, outbox, draft, archive, etc)

Now when I try to add the same account (email adress) in Thunderbird PC (last release), the system found well my data (IMAP, SMTP...), but is unable to display submenus. Only the Inbox appears. The setup is not complete and I have no error. But in Thunderbird I received a notification stating something about the authentication of that new email adress but I have no access to the full notification (when I clic on the notification it disappears).

I deleted this account (data and message) in Thunderbird, closed Thunderbird, and created it again, same result. Only the subdir inbox appears.

In Outlook.live this account works fine, I can send and receive emails.

In Thunderbird I can also send emails but I do not receive them while they are received in Outlook.live. So it seems that there an issue in Thunderbird And I have no opportunity to add the account manually.

Any suggestion to solve this issue ?

Hey everyone,

I have been having this weird issue with Firefox lately every time I close the browser and open it again, I get logged out of all my websites. I’ve already checked the settings under “Privacy & Security,” and I do have “Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed” turned off, so that’s not the problem. It’s super annoying because I use a few tools daily, including my site https://calculadoridadegestacional.com.br/ and I have to log in again every single time. I’m on Windows 11, using Firefox version 131.0.1 (64-bit). Any idea what could be causing this? Cache? Profile issue? Would appreciate some help..

Thunderbird being used as IMAP client for Gmail - with no issues, until recently when an existing email recipient, who sits behind the Barracuda Networks system, fails to receive mail from Thunderbird's recent versions because it is rejected and blocked by Barracuda. I have tried using plain text formats and checked that SMTP server accounts are correct all to no avail, a 550 blocked is the result. The Thunderbird ver is 143 64 bit - However mail from an earlier 32 bit version 115.5 was successfully delivered, later 32 bit ver 140 failed to deliver through the Barracuda system.

Email from Google's own Web client gets delivered and mail from the Android mobile phone app likewise arrives. A simpler IMAP client (MailSpring) manages to get mail thru Barracuda so what has Thunderbird done to appear a threat to Barracuda ? BTW Mailspring is sort of 'Ok' - but it just isn't Thunderbird - it was installed only as a test vehicle !

On Sunday October 5, 2025 I began experiencing an issue with gocomics.com. I thought it was a temporary one that would resolve itself. Monday morning it was still happening. I contacted GC thinking the issue was on their end. They were unable to replicate it. They asked me to try to go to the site using the private window on FF. I was able to access it just fine. Therefore, we know it is not GC. I was also able to get to their page on Chrome.

I tried again on Tuesday. Same issues. I had already read on some forums where others were getting the same loop that I am: https://amub2c.b2clogin.com/amub2c.onmicrosoft.com/B2C_1A_GC_SIGNINSIGNOUT_POLICIES/oauth2/v2.0/logout?post_logout_redirect_uri=https://www.gocomics.com

It was suggested to try refreshing FF. I did that. Didn’t work. Gave up again for the day.

This morning, I tried uninstalling FF. Didn’t work. What else is there left for me to try?

I'm running Thunderbird 140.3.1esr (64-bit) on Windows 11. Possibly because I was changing some settings, possibly because of a Thunderbird update, there are a couple of wonky things going on in my Folder Pane and elsewhere. Among them is the fact that one of my "Archives" folders now has a "Sent" icon instead of an "Archives" icon (see attached). Does anyone know how to fix this? I've tried the following: 1. Repairing the Thunderbird folder. 2. Restarting Thunderbird and my computer. 3. Installing the latest version of Thunderbird (without uninstalling though).
