I saw where there was a same problem liste a couple of months ago but the solution did nto work. As of this morning I can no longer send with my CompuServe Account. There was no change in my settings, and I have had the account in place with Thunderbird for years. I get an error to enter my password again, I do, then no luck. It asks again. When I cancel, I get an alert, sending of the message failed, Unable to authenticate Outgoing Server (SMTP), please check the password and verify the "Authentication method" in "Account Settings|Outgoing Server (SMTP)

I tried change the password authentication from normal to OAuth2. No luck.

No problem with downloading messages; they all come through.

I saved the message to be sent in my Draft Folder and then when going to the web version of CompuServe (really AOL and really Yahoo), my message is saved in the Draft Folder and I can then send it.

Thank you in advance.

Earlier this year I downloaded Thunderbird and started trying to use it. Early on, I somehow set a password and I am not able to remember that password. So, at that time, I uninstalled Thunderbird and continued using my old Outlook 2016.

Recently, I realized that End of Life for Outlook 2016 was near or already here. So, I decided to try Thunderbird again. HOWEVER, Thunderbird still keeps prompting me for passwords – apparently looking back at my previous installation.

I would REALLY like to get out of my MS connection and continue with Thunderbird, but I am frustrated and can’t get in enough to reset the password/

All assistance and guidance will be very much appreciated.

I am getting an error for an outdated certificate on my mail smtp server and when I try to add a security exception Thunderbird does absolutely nothing when i click the button to add a security exception where I can send mail. I end up having to cancel the window and discard my email. It will also not go view the certificate and if you ask it to check it just hangs up forever in and endless loop of checking.

Not sure how to explain this but...

I was using Bluehost, and they somehow screwed up my website (my email was attached to my domain). I switched domains today and when I restarted Thunderbird, all my previous emails disappeared. I'm not sure why they didn't stay on the "server" and I don't know how to get them back now that I've swtiched from Bluehost.


I still have access to my emails on my phone (thru gmail, not thunderbird, but it's NOT a gmail / Google Workspace email).

Is there a way for me to retrieve these messages? I'm on a mac, btw.

I find using format painter is so useful to correct font type and format when cutting and pasting from other sources. Is there a plan to add this to the Thunderbird email portfolio? If not, how can I correct font size and format because when I use the drop down menu, the request is ignored or corrected to something close but not exact, even if I select all the text to format it in one single type and I still end up with text in all sorts of crazy formats.

Hello,

I've used Thunderbird for my e-mail for approximately 15 years, and now I can't currently send e-mail. I've gone through all the troubleshooting steps and also had Geek Squad attempt to fix it, but I'm still unable to send e-mail (I can receive them).

I've changed my password multiple times, reinstalled a fresh copy of Thunderbird on my Windows 11 laptop, restored the default settings for the outgoing server to align with what Verizon has specified, and nothing resolves the problem.

I keep getting the message: " Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: Email rejected. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again."

Please let me know what the next step is so that I can use Thunderbird to send and receive my e-mails, like I have in the past.

Aus alten Thunderbird Ordner war plötzlich keine Profilordner mehr vorhanden? Wieso plötzlich das? Sicherungen hatten leider auch keinen Profilordner von Thunderbird gesichert. Warum werden diese nicht gesichert?

When I use Mail Merge to generate emails for many recipients, they are put in the "Outbox", but Thunderbird will only send 10 emails at a time. After 10 emails, I have to close the program and start it again to get the next 10 sent. So to send 100 emails, the program has to be closed and started 10 times!

I just opened my Thunderbird e-mail account, did thunderbid only access emails from my sbcglobal account email account or did TB download the the 100,000+ SBCglobal emails to a thunderbird file that I can continure to access?. I believe that AT&T is going to delete my sbcglobal email account as I have canceled my AT&T internet service. I see sbcglobal messages in thunderbird that go back to 2008 that I would like to read again. Will these messages disapper when AT&T disables the SBCglobal email account.
