I am just a non-computer-literate old woman. I have tried to follow advice from the community forum. All that SMTP stuff is Greek to me. Since the last update to Thunderbird, I can't reach my daughter or my neighbour. One uses Hotmail and the other Yahoo. sometimes after about 4 days my neighbour will tell me he finally got a message.

Please change this. The only way I can reach them is to leave Thunderbird for webmail. It's a nuisance. Can someone please advise.

"Send to -> Mail recipient" Missing in Windows Context Menu with Thunderbird as Default Email Client

Dear Support Team,

I am experiencing an issue where the "Send to -> Mail recipient" option is missing from the context menu in Windows, despite having Mozilla Thunderbird set as my default email client. Steps to reproduce the issue:

   I have set Thunderbird as my default email client in Windows 11.
   MAILTO links work correctly when triggered from a browser or PowerShell (e.g., start-process "mailto:test@example.com" opens Thunderbird as expected).
   However, the "Mail recipient" option is completely missing from the "Send to" context menu.

Additional troubleshooting:

   I have verified that MAILTO is associated with Thunderbird in the Windows default apps settings.
   The registry keys under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mailto\shell\open\command are set to:
   "C:\Path\To\Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe" -osint -compose "%1"
   I have recreated the Mail recipient.MAPIMail shortcut in %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo pointing to Thunderbird.
   I have reinstalled Thunderbird and checked MAPI compatibility, but the issue persists.
   Running rundll32.exe url.dll,MailToProtocolHandler test@example.com successfully opens Thunderbird.

Observations:

   The issue seems isolated to the context menu functionality.
   The "Mail recipient" shortcut does not appear in the context menu at all, even after manually creating the Mail recipient.MAPIMail file in the SendTo folder.

Could you please help me resolve this issue? Are there any additional settings or configurations I need to adjust to restore the "Send to -> Mail recipient" option for Thunderbird?

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards, Ondrej

Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at tools.usps.com.

If you entered the right address, you can:

   Try again later
   Check your network connection
   Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall)

But Thunderbird still says the pw is not valid. Any suggestions ?

Since the recent updates, my Thunderbird has gone bonkers with confusing settings. I have lost all my previous settings and in particular cannot create any subfolders. I have had no problems in the past. I have tried a few solutions suggested by other subscribers without success. It would be greatly appreciated if the developers (who have done a marvellous job for so long) can rectify the problem ASAP. Otherwise, can I revert to an older version?

Hi - on my Thunderbird I can see what seem to be duplicates of my mail accounts. Please see pic. These are IMAP accounts. At the top where is says INBOX - I can open that up and reveal all my email accounts - and any subfolders I have in them. Then at the bottom I now seem to have duplicates of these mail accounts although the icon is slightly different.

Subfolders in the top email accounts within the INBOX - seem to periodically move down to the accounts at the bottom which is really confusing.

How can I tidy this up please? Thanks for any help. Jonathan
