All of my bookmarks have been disappeared with a new automatic update (9/22) and now I'm left with no bookmarks at all. My other devices were not synced because my work computer needed different links saved. Any easy options for recovery? The bookmark management tool shows no options to import bookmarks and clicking any of the restore or import options does literally nothing. This is a huge issue for work flow and is putting me out of schedule. Why would an update remove ALL bookmarks? Seems like a serious over look in function.

Hi Had an old computer with passwords but has died trying to restart ThunderBird but can't find old password. How can I change the password please .. Ross Email to [edited from public forum] @gmail thanks

I need help with two items of thunderbird program. 1. I have a new iMac desktop OE Tahoe version 26.1 I tried to figure out how to use my thunderbird program to be just like the one in my older iMac version Tahoe 26.1. I found info in your forum. When I followed the info it was as simple as never before…which kind of concerned me. In the instructions for setting up thunderbird into the new iMac, it said to log into my acct using my email address. That worked & it asked if I wanted to open a new acct or the existing one. I used the existing one & it walked me through the pop & stmp setup. When it opened up, all the existing emails were on the new iMac. Super easy. But now I don’t know how to make thunderbird in the new iMac to look like the old one with large font like in thunderbird 140.4 version. Can you help me with step by step info? 2. In using thunderbird on the new iMac, will the emails still be accessible in the old iMac? Am I making sense or do you need something else from me? Thank you in advance for any assistance on this issue. Maria Jones [edited from public] @ix.netcom.com

I converted my old Outlook emails in to MBOX using the Syscurve conversion software, and then moved the MBOX file into my Local Folder for Thunderbird. When I open Thunderbird it sees the file, but does not see the folders or messages inside the file. The Local Folder has the following three files in it (plus the trash, etc.): output_20251127110416.mbox 4,194,310 kb output_20251127110416.mbox.msf 2 kb output_20251127110416.msf 2 kb Thunderbird shows the output_20251127110416.mbox in the Local Folder but says no messages found when I click on it. How do I get Thunderbird to see the mbox files?

I can go to any File Manager and send a file to TB, but from within TB itself regardless of composing new or replying, I can only attach Media, as the app only invokes the Media picker when tapping the Paper Clip icon.

Android 14, latest TB from Play Store.

On a 15" tablet, it would be nice to see the imap folders permanently, so i could drag emails to them. Im a librarian and i like to have a nice structured subject ordered inbox. But i cant find any ways to fix the folders list to the left side..

Hi,

Every time the phone was sleeping, i need to restart TB, or it will not refresh imap folders (3 accounts active, one icloud).

Once it gets restarted, everything is working as expected.

What to do?

Best regards,

Andy

I'm using the Thunderbird email client to connect to a few of my Zoho emails. This has worked perfectly well before.

It has stopped syncing emails since yesterday. When I try to reconnect the account I get an error like this:

readStringUntil(): end of stream reached. Read: "" while waiting for

Is there an active issue with this? Anything I can do to fix?

Thanks !

Hello,

I imported my email accounts from Thunderbird for desktops into Thunderbird for Android. Everything works as expected with my own mail servers, i.e., I can send and receive emails. However, when I try to send an email to t-online.de, Thunderbird refuses to do so. The email remains in the outbox indefinitely, and then I receive an error message stating that the maximum number of retries has been reached. However, I do not receive an error message. The email simply remains in the outbox. I deleted the account and added it again, but the behavior remains the same.

What's strange is that it works without any problems with K9 Mail. Both sending and receiving emails works fine here. What could be the reason for this?

I am using the stable releases of Thunderbird 14.0 and K9 Mail 14.0.

Search is not finding emails that I can see are there. I looked at "Rebuilding the Global Database does not complete (Mac)" and although I use Windows, I followed the hint to look at the Activity Manager and the Error Console after an attempt to re-index failed to complete. The Activity Manager showed "Indexing 429 of 5663 messages in Sent - horshamquakermeeting@phonecoop.coop (IMAP) (7% complete)" The Error Console showed "1764413544692 addons.xpi WARN Checking C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\distribution\extensions for addons" I used Windows Explorer to look for addons.xpi on the whole of the C: drive. Not only is there not such a file but C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\distribution does not have an extensions folder. Also I have previously looked in C:\Users\Michael\AppData\Roaming rather than C:\Program Files (x86) to find Thunderbird files. Thunderbird is otherwise behaving well, just that I can't search for emails. I may have deleted too many files earlier when I was trying to remove an addon that I didn't want. How do I get back to normal?

You sent me an email that says I have successfully created a password on "Windows 10" "I have Windows 11" ?? I need tech support because I don't know how to log into my account. Can I get a call at [edited phone# from public community support forum]. Name Paul Yoshida.

Hi

I'm using Thunderbird 140.5 on a desktop Mac running Sequoia 15.7.2

In Local Folders, my subfolders have subfolders. In both levels of subfolders, Thunderbird has spontaneously started disordering both newly created subfolders, and folders which I move from one subfolder to another using right click 'Move To'

Up until ten days ago, all folders whether new or moved, were listed alphabetically. Now, day by day, the disordering is getting worse and as someone with ongoing conversations with hundreds of clients, it is becoming impossible to work when I have to give so much time to slowly scanning through every folder looking for the relevant subfolder.

I don't know why I can't update this version, but I tried installing the newest version available (145) and used the 'reset folder option' which did not work either.

Also, setting up a whole new account instead of upgrading my existing account is a colossal faff and I'd rather not have to!

Aside from manually reordering (also a colossal faff), can anyone suggest something I might be missing in stopping this happening?

Thunderbird says I'm on an esr channel, if that helps

Thanks

Hello, I'm having a problem with emails on my computer and phone. Even though I have the "Don't delete messages from the server" setting, my messages aren't synchronized between my phone and computer. If a message is downloaded to my phone, it doesn't appear on my computer. What should I configure to prevent this from happening?

georgiasown.org does not fully function in firefox browser. The website opens but some of the graphics are missing and when I click on Log In nothing happens. This started about two weeks ago. Have been daily going to this website for over 10 years in the Firefox browser. I do not have this issue when using Microsoft Edge browser.
