This beta update is really causing me issues and I'm rethinking using Thunderbird in the future. I am extremely frustrated my local folders are missing from this beta update and I am not sure where they are. I have found other profiles but I am not able to see the local folders anywhere. Please help. I am using windows 11

I have installed TB 102 on mx Linux 21.3. The profile folder, which-- to add confusion to peasants like me, the name is now XXXX.release-default-- but that is not my question. I noticed that the profile folder was HUGE (13 gb!!), and when I looked inside I found that under ImapMail there are FOUR different folders: Imap.gmail.com-1, Imap.gmail.com-2, Imap.gmail.com-3, Imap.gmail.com-4, each with approx. 2 gb or more. What is going on? In TB 78 the corresponding folder (with mail from many years) was approx. 4 gb.

  Please explain-- I like using TB, but it is a constant struggle for no good reason that I can discern.

I've downloaded a calendar file 4 times from a website. I've checked all of my 2 download folders with internet and SD card. Not there. I 4 notifications listed next to the Firefox shortcut. Where the hell did Firefox send the files and how do I deal with the notifications. Not listed when I go into the settings. Beyond frustrating. Shouldn't be this hard. Urgh.

I just installed Beta 114. I currently have a Thunderbird 102 installation with a POP Account. There are three subfolders to the Inbox on that POP account. I would like to import the folders and messages to the 114 installation but haven't been able to figure out how to do that. When I added that account to 114 I used IMAP instead of POP.

Thank you.

I have several email accounts with my domain at Godaddy. They say I must change from POP/IMAC to EXCHANGE PROTOCOL to see my email. When will there be a software solution for TB to change the emails to EXCHANGE automatically?

When I installed the new version of Thunderbird, I lost all my saved email files, and I lost all the opened emails in my inbox, which I had been keeping there for further action at a later date. Is there anyway to recover my lost emails? Can I go back to the old version, and will my lost emails be recovered there?

I am trying to set up a new Thunderbird email account using pop3.gotadsl.co.uk port 110 and smtp-auth.gotadsl.co.uk port 25 which are the settings I have been using for years on my old Livemail account. Thunderbird recognises these settings but warns me that pop3 and smtp-auth do not use encryption and as such could expose my password and private information, Can you please advise me what settings I can use. Many thanks.

I have been using TB for many years. In previous version, filter rules data were stored in: MsgFIlterRules.dat file. I find no such file in TB 102. I can copy the MsgFilterRules.dat file from a previous installation, but where should I put it? The folder arrangement of TB 102 seem quite different from that of my previous version, which was 78. I am using MX linux 21.3.

I had to reset win10 and used a satellite drive to move all my Mozilla and Thunderbird app/files in their entireity via drag and drop to the drive. I got tbird installed and all my current inbox messages are there but i cannot find my folders and their subs, this is how I pay my monthly bills, with each folder representing the summation of bill paying for several years. My reciepts of payment as well as pass information is in those folders and my bills have to be paid on the 1st. I had years of data in there and I cannot find it. Please help, fast. Thanks, Arthur

Attempts to import from a previous [recent] profile generate this error message:

Can anyone decipher this?

My e-mail address changed, but the old one keeps popping up. I need to ELIMINATE the old one and use ONLY the new one. I've told various organizations, businesses, etc., to make the change. I want Mozilla Firefox to ELIMINATE the old one and use ONLY the new one. Help!
