When attempt to 'open a message – TB instead opens a Send window, using an earlier email address of mine with a provider I no longer have an account with. (but I still want to retain record of messages in TB).

I’m unsure what the pop-up yellow blocked message means – ie “unique identity matching the From address”?? Any suggestions will appreciate. Please see attach screen dump.

TB Preview panel is fine.

Background info (in Australia) My email account was with Westnet/iinet but now handled by The Messaging Co. I also use TB to access my google gmail account which continues to work fine with TB.

(Perhaps unrelated, but on same day this problem occurred (Wed 15 Jan AEST), iinet/westnest Support reset my (mobile) account in the hope system would correctly identify my replacement iPhone as 4G suitable, now that 3G network in Australia has closed down.)

Desktop Windows 10. System Restore (to day prior) tried but no change. TB version up to date. I just culled out messages not needed in case to many. I don't know max can have? Thank you

I recently donated to TBird but it is unable to send any emails. So I uninstalled it and tried to download a fresh copy but I couldn't avoid the donating page. I paid again but I just get a page telling me to finish downloading - but not how to do so. I've waited half an hour but nothing has been downloaded. If it's still possible to download TBird, how can I do it - preferably without repeatedly paying?

Option to ask the user to save or discard messages after sending an email

Hello! Seriously considering Thunderbird after the recent refresh and am super delighted to see your collective contributions. A big thanks at the outset! I handle about 100 emails a day (both in and outbound) and have to keep going to the sent box towards the close of the day to delete all emails which i had to respond to but have no future use for. Could you introduce a feature in Thunderbird where the user is asked whether he/she wishes to save the email just after sending it? A "yes" retains the email in the sent box while a "no" does not. That way, i dont have to go to my sent box and go through numerous emails at the end of the day to keep my mailboxes clean.

Secondly, could you introduce the ability to compose signatures within the application itself please?

Just wanted to leave these two thoughts here. Wishing you the best for many more iterations of a truly wonderful outlook alternative!

HI -- My email accounts (2) vanish and I have recquire them to sign back in

I have my one main account up and running again (for now) but my secodary account I can't recall my password.

is there any way to keep my secondary account but update and change the password for it??

Won't allow me access - keeps kicking me out - until I can get the account and password to match up

Many thanks!!!

I have uploaded my Yahoo email to Thunderbird and have now downloaded that to my desktop as POP. I see various folders as both "Mail" and Imap in my Profile on the Mac, with various subfolders as per my Yahoo email. When I open the various files, which are in detailed folders in the Imap folder, they are only visible as complex Text files. Is there I can open them with Outlook or Word, or something else easier to understand? Many thanks, Charles
