I have changed my passwords on 2 gmail accounts I import to TB. Usually when you do that and TB retrieves email from gmail, you get a credential popup because the password doesn't match. Usually when you get that popup you click "next" and put the new password in and everything works as it should. I have been messing with this for 2 days now. I get the gmail credential popup, but when I click "next" to continue, I then get an error 400 from google? You can't do anything else after that. That darn popup just keeps coming and coming every time TB tries to retrieve email. Anyone else having this issue and found how to fix it? Is it a TB issue or gmail/google issue?

Thunder quit downloading Yahoo email. I can still see my email online with Firefox. I have had the same Yahoo email connected to Thunderbird for 15+ years. Thanks

Hello, when browsing gallery sites, well, i actually only have one in mind (NSFW https://hitomi.la), each time i move to the next picture previous, picture disappears then there is site background, but only for a moment, then the next picture appears, thus creating flickering effect. Its different from slow loading. It only happens on next unloaded picture, meaning, that if i move back and forth between already loaded pictures then everything is fine. Other browsers, Edge and Chrome, doesn't have that problem, they load pictures seamlessly.

I was wondering if i can do something in about:config, but i have no idea what to change. I also tried disabling hardware acceleration, but it made it even worse.

Running Thunderbird 115.10.x on Windows 10 Pro 22H2 on an older Samsung Note 9 Pro 15 w/ an 8th gen Intel i7, 16GB RAM and an aftermarket 1TB SSD w/ over 660GB of free space. I have emails going back to 1997 in the Sent folder (16K sent emails). While running Thunderbird 115.9.x earlier today, I noticed I suddenly could not delete emails out of my Inbox. The following error message was displayed:

The messages could not be moved or copied to folder 'Trash on [username@domain.com]' because writing to folder failed. To gain disk space, from the File menu, first choose Empty Trash, and then choose Compact Folders, and then try again.

So I did that to no avail. I then tried to delete messages out of other folders as a test (Sent, Drafts, etc.) figuring I could simply move them back if successful. Received the same error message. Closed all applications and rebooted the laptop as it had been running for several days. Same error message.

Did some research which all told me to delete the Trash MBOX files (including the .msf file). Did that, same result. Launched in Safe Mode, same result. Created a Trash.txt file, removed the .txt file extension and relaunched Thunderbird. Same result. Compacted all folders and relaunched. Same result.

If I backup the current folders and restore from them, I'll get the same result. Anyone have a new idea or set of instructions I can follow?

Thanks!

Hi I've recently started using Thunderbird & have made several customisations & created a userChrome.css file. I find the yellow star on a starred message a bit to easy to miss. Is there a way to either make the yellow star another colour or to make the starred message in the message list another colour (like Outlook does)? The only info I have found so far makes all stars change colour - starred on unstarred. That defeats my objective. Thanks, Tony

Last night (9/23/2024), Thunderbird began presenting a screen (see attached) requiring me to sign in to contine to Mozilla Thunderbird Email. At the top of the screen is a "Sign in with Google" line. However, there is nowhere to sign into anything. My correct email is displayed but no entry for a password.

Clicking "Next" takes you to an Error 400 screen. There is no "Close" button and the only way out of the screen is to hit "Esc," which takes me to my Email account. After a short bit, the screen refreshes back to that " sign in to contine to Mozilla Thunderbird" screen. After one or two more uses of :Esc, I can get back control of my laptop.

Meanwhile, Thunderbird is frozen--mail doesn't update, and any attempt to use T-Bird returns me to the sign in cycle. Win 11; TB ver, 128.2.3esr (32-bit); server security imap.gmail.com, port 993, outgoing server smtp.google.com, authentication OAuth2. I've accepted cookies and javascript and closed my VPN. can't figure what to do next.

Is there any Add-on that will shoot a scrolling screenshot (full page screenshot)?

For reference, there's an excellent extension on Chrome/Brave called "Go full screen" which has simple but perfect functionality, one-click automation, saves as either .pdf or .png format to your downloads folder.

I installed Thunderbird 136.4 (64-bit) today on a new windows 11 Pro PC. I created 4 - POP3 accounts. The 1 gmail address downloaded all older emails from the servers, but the 3 TDS email addresses only downloaded a couple of months of emails. I can't find a setting that will find and download older emails. I checked the online TDS accounts and they have years of emails on them. Anyone else have that problem? Is there a solution anywhere?

One day I tried to send an email, and it failed. This just happened suddenly without me touching any of my settings. When that happened, I researched reasons and have tried everything. It's an outgoing server error. I tried changing it to what my email provider and the internet says it should be, but nothing works. I even called Spectrum, and they said I needed to contact Thunderbird support.

Hi All,

Two days ago, my Google calendar sync stopped working. I tried to add them again, but now, for a change, I can't see events at all, even though Thunderbird plugins theoretically got access to calendars. Should I wait for an update? Is this a global problem? How can I solve it?

Thank you Mariusz

Not sure why, but Gmail is not loading, then Ebay shows gmail pic broken, and can't log into ebay either. I can log on bot via private window tho I have removed all ad-ons, uninstalled adblock, still no go, this happen with Some of the Firefox updates, but different sites. Thanks

I updated, then I un-installed, then re-installed Ver 136, but still no confirmation request. after shift -delete. Highlighted Messages were immediately deleted with no confirm message displayed. What do I do to reinstate the "confirmation required" prompt?

Hello, Sorry to disturb but its been two days and I am unable to access my Google accounts (work and private) through Firefox in anyway. I have done all the basic fixes I can think of but with no success. I have deleted caches, checked plug ins, rebooted Firefox went through the trouble shooting mode, followed advice in the community forum, tried logging in from Google linked accounts. Spoke to our internal IT support at work but nothing has solved the issue as yet, spoke to Google support.

My assumption is that it has to be the browser as I am able to log into google with another browser but Firefox is my preferred browser and would like to use it again as such.

Please advise.

Thank you Cait
