i can not receive mails, since the update to 128.5.2ESR not on imap.strato.com not on imap.gmail.com not on mail.yourhosting.com

just since today after the update. sending emails seems to work.

I did NOT change anything in the accounts.

How to solve????

Thank you.

今日Thunderbirdのメーラーを開いたらメールフォルダが英字表記に変わっていました。 具体的には「受信トレイ」は日本語のままなのですが、「送信トレイ」が「Sent」になり「迷惑メール」が「Junk」に変わるといった感じです。 受信トレイ以外はすべて英字表記になっています。 設定にある「言語とフォント」は「日本語」のままで変更はありません。 元に戻す方法をご存じの方がいましたら、ご教示をお願いいたします。

I made a mistake. I had 128 and went up to 140. It pretty much looks the same, but a big difference is an extension I always use says it will not work with 140. I don't care how good 140 might be; if I can't use my app, QUICKTEXT, then I don't need this. How do I go back to 128 or to a version that works with my extension?

Thunderbird ver 140.0 (64-bit) on Windows 11.

Brand new, fresh installation of Thunderbird. - Added a GMail account. That worked. - I tried to add an account with my personal domain. I enter my name, the email account, and Thunderbird gets stuck in an unending loop looking up the configuration. - Other email clients have successfully looked up the config and did the setup without a problem. - The email account is handled via IONOS.com servers. - If you gave me a manual setup option I could handle it but there is none; TB goes straight into trying to handle it itself.

Any ideas?

TY, Frank

My local folders are missing. There is nothing in my profiles to recover from. This is the second time this has happened after a Thunderbird update. Last time the local folder were found in my profile and I was able to restore them, This time there is nothing to restore. Has this happened to other users?

Hi,

I'm trying to add another account to my Thunderbird client (already have 2, a IMAP account, and a Hotmail/Live/Outlook), but i keep getting the error "Exchange auth error" and no possible way to manually configure the server or anything, despite the mail server not being an exchange server. Following this, it just freezes the view, although i can close the popup by pressing escape.

is this a bug in the most current version of Thunderbird, or am i doing something wrong?

I'm using thunderbird for gmail account, and I struggle to mark some events notification as completed when they are deleted using gmail interface. They keep on poping up but when I hit `Dismiss` it gives me this error: ``` Status Code: 2147500037, The request cannot be processed.

Server Replied with 400 If you're seeing this message after snoozing or dismissing a reminder and this is for a calendar you do not want to add or edit events for, you can mark this calendar as read-only to avoid such experience in future. To do so, get to the calendar properties by right-clicking on this calendar in the list in the calendar or task view. ```

I don't want to make my calendar read-only because I'm still gonna use it but I can't remove these annoying pop-ups because of the error. Please help what can I do

On January 21st 2025 I changed my Spectrum account password. Almost immediately Thunderbird could not log into the spectrum maintained "mail.twc.com" server. When I called Spectrum support I was told the old Spectrum use of separate passwords for SMTP and IMAP was changed to use the same password as the spectrum web page which is now the same for all spectrum logins, a "one password to rule them all" scheme in November 2024. I changed the passwords in Thunderbird for IMAP and SMTP, but it still will not connect. If I do an auto populate attempt, the server actually responds with the correct setting so I know I am reaching the server. After five days trying to resolve the issue with Spectrum I was told this is a know issue with Thunderbird and it is not the server but the third party application. It is bad enough they reconfigure things like this without disclosing it. It baffles me that the changes they claim were made in November 2024 only make themselves known when the service stops working nearly three months after the change and only when I changed the web site password. Anyone know how to solve this? Thank you so much in advance.

I have been using Thunderbird for many years. I have 4 accounts that have all been set up and working fine. This morning the 2 yahoo.com accounts stopped working. I logged in to the impacted accounts using a web browser and password just fine. I then updated Thunderbird to 116.0 to see if that would fix the problem, but it did not. The outlook and gmail accounts are working fine, for now.

When Thunderbird attempts to download mail for the yahoo accounts, I get a large pop-up window with "Edge: Too Many Requests". The pop-up window is blank except for that error message. I get the small pop-up with the Authentication Failure message. Sometimes I get Retry, Enter Password or Cancel. But I never see a window that will allow me to enter my password.

I can send/receive mail from the accounts while logged in via a browser but authentication fails within Thunderbird.

I get a message like this every time I start Thunderbird. The topic came up last year but the conclusion was along the lines of "...this problem will be fixed in version 128" but it was never clear whether or not the User followed Mozilla's support replies or what they had to do to clear the email message from Thunderbird. .....Well I'm running version 128.1.1esr and the problem still exists.

My questions:

1. What is Thunderbird trying to do? Compact individual email files? Compae from ct the whole Thunderbird Profiles folder?

2. Is the problem the size of the Profiles folder or the overall size of the hard drive the Profiles folder resides on? What is the Hard/solidstate drive is the maximum?

3. Is the problem related to the amount of Free Space left on the Hard/solidstate drive or is the issue the number of individual files?

4. Is the issue related to the number of Thunderbird files and/or folders OR is it related to the total number of files and/or folders on the hard drive?

5. Is there a limit to the number of sub-folder levels that Thunderbird can navigate?

Thank you.

Tom

Using Tbird 115 (or later) can gmail contacts be the listing used in Tbird and be in synch when changes are made in the gmail contacts list. There appear to be various methods and I seek the best and simplest. Thanks

I moving from classic outlook to Thunderbird and I am having trouble finding how to change fonts and color in signatures for my emails. I do not do html it is a simple signature; name company name and phone numbers. I search and found no help. Is there a way to change color and font in the reply to an email? Sorry I know this sounds simple but I have been using outlook since it came out so this is similar but just enough to give me trouble. Thank you for any help, rick

After Thunderbird just updated to Version 128.5.0esr today, now all my accounts are saying that the connection is refused. This is coming from three different email services that I have accounts on. I'm assuming it's not an issue with those servers as I can access them just fine with a different email client, and I didn't change any settings. Yesterday it worked, today it doesn't. Only thing that seems to have changed is Thunderbird got updated.

When I right click on a document [Show More Options/Send To] Thunderbird email I get the following notice: There is no email program associated to perform the requested action. Please install an email or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs panel. I've been using TB for multiple years with zero problems, this started when I recently reloaded Windows 11 from scratch (due to a bot virus issue). I have reloaded TB 3 or 4 times. I have also tried creating an association to MapiMail which hosed my Send To link. I had to import a new Send To link from my wifes PC after restoring the registry entry for MapiMail. I have always used the 64 bit version, so the 32 bit version is not for me. I am out of ideas? Anybody else have this problem?

Hello and THANK YOU for Thunderbird and I am looking so forward to getting off Outlook! I am about 4/5 way through setting it up on my desktop.

I currently keep my calendar on Outlook. I have been able to import my folders, contacts and mail, but when I go to import the Calendar, the box on import cannot be selected. Is there something else that I need to do to bring over my calendar? Did I miss step when I did the initial set up?

My Sent folder disappeared. How do I restore the folder with the sent messages still intact. Or, at the least, just restore an empty Sent folder. The In-Box, Drafts, and Trash are still there.

All the settings are correct, and it seems that because there's no Sent folder I cannot send an email. When I try to send a message I get the attached Error.

My local phone company routes email through Yahoo Mail, then to Thunderbird. It was all working fine until my Sent folder disappeared. Now because of the missing Sent folder I have to create the email message in Thunderbird saving it in Drafts so I have a record. Then, I have to copy it and send it from Yahoo Mail. Needless to say this is a pain in the you know what.

Can someone please provide the instructions to get my Sent folder back?

Thanks,

Tess

I just recently switched to Thunderbird and Libre Office to get rid of MS365. I am happy so far, if there wasn't one particular issue which I do not find a solution for:

I know how to sort messages with the newest on top, I know how to toggle the threaded view on and off. But I would like to use the threaded view and find it impossible to adjust a descending order within a thread. So I end up with the newest thread on top, but the thread headline shows the oldest message and if I unfold the thread it's in ascending order.

This is a major issue for me. To avoid overlooking incoming mails, I need to switch of the threaded view. Websearch didn't provide me a solution.

On 9/10/24, I tried to download my email and got the message: "Unable to write the email to the mailbox. Make sure the file system allows you write privileges, and you have enough disk space to copy the mailbox." To my knowledge, nothing had changed on my Win 10 computer, so why this is suddenly showing up is unclear. I have 555 GB of free space on my C: drive, so space isn't an issue. I don't know why the permissions would have changed.

I checked the TB help and found that there was an update, so I installed that. I checked for updates a second time and found another one which I applied too. TB is now at "128.2.0esr (32-bit)" according to Help > About.

I tried restarting TB in troubleshooting mode, but that didn't help. Can someone suggest a way out of this?

Thanks in advance.

I have a new HD and installed Linux Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS. I installed Thunderbird version 2:1 snap 1-Oubuntu3. The program will not open Just get "Your Thunderbird profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible."
