Hi, thanks for your help in advance.

My Thunderbird keeps stalling every time it checks the Hotmail messages. The "thinking" wheel keeps coming up and it freezes for the duration of the process of checking the Hotmail account for new messages.

This didn't happen before, and it doesn't happen with other email accounts (gmail or others). I believe it started with the last 2 updates or so.

I am using a Macbook Pro 16, 2019, 2,3 Ghz, i9, 16Gb, and TB 102.3.3

I look forward to your suggestions to solving this issue since it interferes with my workflow every time I have to wait for TB to unfreeze after it finishes checking the Hotmail account.

Thanks again. Best. Nacho.

I get this Error message when I try to send emails from my outlook email address in Thunderbird. Basically asking me to enter a Password to login to office365 server ! My Password is correct, and has not been changed recently.

Any ideas please ?

Updating to version 38.1.0 Start Thunderbird, Starts up OK. Can view messages and write new emails etc OK. If I select "get messages" OR messages are accessed automatically every 5min. then the whole PC crashes. Three finger salute does not bring up task manager. Only way out is to power cycle.

Thanks in advance for your help Cheers Pete

Every few hours, maybe 4 times a day, XULRunner appears and tabs me out of everything. It says "This profile was last used with a newer version of this application. Please create a new profile."

There isn't a 'create new profile' button. I already made a new profile as well, but it did not fix the problem.

I recently changed to the newest ESR, 115.10.0esr, to fix streaming issues.

when clicking an email link this is shown

"Thunderbird is already running, but is not responding. To use Thunderbird, you must first close the existing Thunderbird process, restart your device, or use a different profile."

How do I make Thunderbird instead open a new email?

This is on Fedora

For the last 6 months, my ip gets blocked from my website server about once a month. This causes me to locked out of my website until inmotion unblocks my ip. It works fine for about a month and then ip blocked again The conversation below was with my hosting company Inmotion hosting

(4:36:16 PM) Andrea J.: So you should be able to access the server now. (4:36:54 PM) Alan Johnston: Yes my email is working again thanks. (4:36:59 PM) Andrea J.: My pleasure. Was there anything else I could assist with today? (4:37:20 PM) Alan Johnston: What can be done so this does not keep happening about every month (4:38:32 PM) Andrea J.: You will need to locate the device that is having the login issue, (4:39:14 PM) Alan Johnston: That is the only email related to this site and It is me.

Hello. I have been having this problem for a while now. When I enter an address in an existing tab with a :port number at the end of the website address and press the RETURN key the browser does nothing. You can see this issue in the video below. Video will expire on 12th september 2022 https://files.fm/f/xm2mxb829 Only way for me to enter an address with a port is to use an older website link from history or send tab from my desktop through ff sync.

Is there something wrong with my device or is it the browser. Im using firefox for android 102.2.0 on android 10

I have several email addresses all on my own website and all with identical setup at the server end. I just added two new ones to TB and they vanish when TB restarts. I've installed them a couple of times, they auto install perfectly, but they keep vanishing.

I've checked that all the mail servers and ports etc are the same as on the ones that work OK. So I'm assuming that the problem is some kind of generic problem with cache / profile corruption etc etc. Assuming that is the case, what kind of generic cleanup fixes should I try please?

Many thanks.

i click on the download folder in firebox and doesn't open as its used to.

i already did the "refresh" and didnt word

if someone has a idea how to fix this, thanks

Well, I have applied all the options about proxy settings with the same result of long time for opening websites when first start of firefox. During these months I took notice to the one point, i.e. if I open website using firefox in the earlier morning there is no problem with the speed of opening as well as if I open another browser of edge the last one opens website without any delay. So the challenge of long time opening websites when the first start of firefox is still in force. How to resolve this?

Thunderbird updated to 115.10.1 (32-bit) and I cannot see any emails now. I use View > Folders > All. If I run a search, TB lists the emails. Have tried opening in Troubleshoot mode but still same, no emails nor inboxes. Windows Security Ransomware turned off for preparing for maintenance prior to TB updating itself. How should I go about fixing issue?

Windows 11, 64 bit Addons: Cardbook, Provider for Google Calendar

When i send an attachment the other party a lot of the time cannot open the file. However in my sent directory the file is always corrupted and shows as 337kb for a 1.5MB attachment and the same for a 6.5 MB attachment. When i send the 6.5MB file to myself in the in box it shows as 331kb. TBird is set as IMAP and the laptop is running Windows 11.

Hi,

I use a siteground server and whenever I add a new account, TB recognizes the settings but when I click "Next" to finalize the process, it never completes.

If I try to configure it manually, I get an error saying "incoming server already exists."

To fix the problem, I have to exit TB and manually edit the profile file.

I end up adding:

user_pref("mail.account.accountXX.identities", "idXX"); user_pref("mail.account.accountXX.server", "serverXX");

Then I make a copy of another account's

user_pref("mail.identity.idXX.XXX"

settings and make them fit the new account.

As you can guess, it's pretty tedious and annoying but I don't understand why this happens.

Any ideas?

Hello, I have seen similar reports on that issue here and elsewhere. What surprises me is that if I right click on the sent folder and select properties, it still gives me the right number of messages in that folder.

In fact, If I go to ~/.thunderbird/my_profile.default/Mail/pop.gmail-2.com/Sent.sbd/2023 and open that file with whatever text editor, file 2023 contains all messages sent. I have tried repairing that file, then restarting TB to no avail. Is there a workaround ?

Please fix the abovementioned problems,make a browser bit faster,improve the consistancy of the browser so that it will stop crushing.Please make it stop alternating or change mail pages.

My work consists mainly of capturing accounting data online. It is important that the browser warns me if I try to close or navigate away from a page if the data entered has not been saved or updated, but I no longer get these warnings.

Please help.

When I open gmail in Firefox browser, I lose the connection very often, it also happens with google drive. But it does not happen to me if I use Outlook from the web, I only lose the connection with Google from Firefox.

However, if I open the same thing using Google Chrome, this does not happen, it works correctly throughout the day, and I do not lose the connection.

My version of Firefox is 100.0.2 (64-bit) on my notebook I have Windows 10 Pro installed.

Hello dear developers, engineers, and support,

For the first time in many, many years, I'm having complications with a Thunderbird mail folder, whose contents, the mails, don't get displayed any more.

I manage several e-mail adresses, and some of them have directories with quite large contents, I regularly accept the proposed compacting, and then place Thunderbird on another virtual desktop. So I suspect, it has to do with a compacting operation which got interrupted, as I shut down the computer, ignoring that the compacting may still have been taking place.

The folder itself is still visible on the left side of Thunderbird main window. This folder hosts all mail which has a certain term in the subject. The good news is when I do "Search messages" (in that folder) for that term, then all mail is displayed in the search window (altogether 5308 pieces of mail). So it is there. The main window also displays the same number of unread mail as that shown in the search window. And if I click on any mail in the search window, it gets displayed in a separate tab in the main window. So it is there, and it "really" "seems" to be "just" the display...

I went through this: https://support.mozilla.org/fr/kb/compacter-les-dossiers#w_complications-potentielles , as well as that: https://support.mozilla.org/fr/kb/compacting-folders-potential-complications

I did (in the main window) Folder (that with the failure), right click -> Properties -> Repair folder (three times), it didn't help. I did (in the main window) File -> Compact (all) folders , it didn't help.

In my /home/.../icedove/.../Mail/pop3.xxx.net folder there is a file with the name of the mail folder, it has a size of 923MB, the file with the same name with extension .msf has 3,8 MB

What should I do ?

Really thanks very much for the support you can give, and thanks anyway for all the great work on this classic programme that has accompanied me for years now.

Best regards

Ludo
