TBird Version: 140.7.1esr

Since yesterday I can no longer click through with hyperlinks inside an email message.

I don't understand this.

I have already tried all the troubleshooting items to no avail.

To my mind, a change was made to TBird's functionality and this is stopping the click-through to the default browser and the opening of the page linked.

Each year I set up a new profile under same account and call it 2024, 2025 etc. I set this up for 2025 but I get the response "Thunderbird could not connect to the server gmail.com. Access refused" I tried sending mail but get "Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because connecting to Outgoing server (SMTP) failed. The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections. Please verify that your Outgoing server (SMTP) settings are correct and try again. I have not had this concern before. TB Version 128.1.1esr running on 64bit pc. I made sure that all the settings are the same as 2024 profile. POP3 account, using the same email address for over many years. Checking: Server Type POP Mail Server Server Name .gmail.com Port 995 Connection Security SSL/TLS Authentication Method OAuth2 Outgoing Server myemail@gmail.com - .gmail.com (Default) Setting up I got to end to end encryption but didn't know how to apply my existing Openkey. Nothing stored in OpenPGP Key Manager Window

I just want to get connected at this stage. Can you help me please and thank you.. Regards David

Hello & HNN. I run the same version of Thunderbird 128.6.0esr (64 bits) on 2 machines with the same Windows 11 Pro version 22H2. I configured both machines the same way (e.g. same DNS 9.9.9.9) and the only major difference is the ISP.

The mailboxes I want to config by my customer's side work pectly by my side (same params, passwd OK).

The weird thing is that on customer's side, creating a new mailbox never conclue. I mean your enter Name, email, passwd, select IMAP click on Continue > Configuration found in Mozilla ISP db. Keep IMAP (default), click done > stays forever on 'Mail for jdoe@hell.com: Sending login information' (with on some mailboxes like gmail 'Checking password...' "waiting".

How can we solve this problem, please? (Can I check logs ? N.B. pigning imap.isp.org works)

I have five email accounts connected to my thunderbird profile, two outlook, two gmail and one more obscure, all of them had correctly set-up outgoing servers and all had an identical error message of 'Sending of the message failed' with no further details. Every account can receive emails perfectly fine and only sending of emails (and saving drafts as the same message appears if I were to try and save a draft) appears to have been affected.

I opened the browser console in an attempt to diagnose an issue, however I am simply not knowledgeable enough to understand what its telling me.

I suspect a component was lost when I resized the partition, however a reinstall of thunderbird and a wipe of my profiles has not changed the issue and as such I am lost. Could someone more knowledgable than I please point me in the right direction before I reinstall ubuntu trying to fix this.

Many thanks Hawk.

I cannot access my email on my computer or send out email since the latest update. I seem to be offline. Is it because my operating system old? Please tell me what I need to know to fix this problem. Thank you for your assistance.

Hi...I'm having trouble with T-Bird connecting to outlook.live....error message:

"Your browser is currently set to block cookies"

I checked my settings and I don't see anything blocked...I also added:

Microsoft.com Allow outlook.live Allow

...and I still get the same message - "set to block cookies".

I'm far from being a computer wiz and just started using T-Bird about a month ago and I'm very happy with it. Any help with resolving this problem would be great! It might be something simple...as I'm no expert and still learning. Thanks, Bill

When i receive email with linkages i am getting this reply when link is used

404 Not Found

The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

I'm being peppered by an annoying message that creeps in from the lower right of my screen that sounds a chime and tells me that the connection to my webhost has been reset.

I don't know if this is a Thunderbird issue or an issue triggered by a connection problem with my webhost.

I attached a screenshot.

If anyone can tell me what's causing this, I shall be very grateful. I've had to shut TB down which means I don't receive email, some of which is important.

TIA

Thunderbird was open when my Ubuntu Unity 24.04.1 LTS system abruptly powered off. When I restarted the system, Thunderbird first downloaded a ton of duplicate Emails from pop.gmail.com. Once I cleared those out, Thunderbird now times out attempting to reconnect. I am running the .deb (not the snap) version of Thunderbird 128.5.2esr (64-bit). I'm sure something got corrupted and I'd like to get that straightened out. Thanks in advance.

By the way, I do have both the Cardbook and GCalTab addons which read my contacts and calendar entries from Google just fine. Only the Gmail portion is FUBAR.

I own the domain name sabbathcalendar.com which is redirected to my website at sabbathcalendar.org. Firefox consistently gives the following message:

"Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site. We can’t connect to the server at www.sabbathcalendar.com."

It doesn't matter how I enter the URL. When I simply enter "sabbathcalendar.com" in either Brave or Microsoft Edge, both browsers will immediately connect to my website at sabbathcalendar.org with no problem.

Since we needed to upgrade 2 PCs to Windows 11 (1x Pro & 1x Home) nothing works anymore with Thunderbird. It has MASSIVE and unsolvable problems to connect to our Gmail account via OAuth, Not only will it ask every single time again and over again to allow the connection, but moreover even after granting access it still can NOT send (SMTP) or save or even receive (IMAP) emails. It is maga frustrating and I am currently after days and days spend to unsuccessful fix the problem are at the point to looks for a more reliable alternative (if there is any). Just as background: Our Gmail account is about 14GB big, the local Thunderbird folder around 100GB; so yes it's big, but that's another problem, there are no easy or straightforward off-line archivers any longer to effectively and still easy accessible reduce the local archive.

Unable to send emails. A message appears saying the outgoing server (SMIP) smtp.gmail.com timed out. Try again. This keeps repeating. What can I do?

my thunderbird is not working properly and cannot use it, i keep on getting questions by a member of the team but cannot give the excact details due to language barrier

I've been using the Thunderbird App (v12.1) on a Google Pixel 8 (Android 16) for a while now with several Email accounts from different providers. One of them is a T-Online Email address. Recently it appears to have stopped syncing the folders only for this account. I still get emails in the inbox but all the folders are empty. It only says "Bis zu 100 weitere abrufen" (request up to 100 more) but tapping that doesn't make a difference. In the settings I have the sync set to everything without limitation.

I tested the same account with K9 (v11.1) and Google Mail and in both all the folders have their content.

Does anyone have the same issue or any suggestions? Is there any logging that I turn on to see if there's any errors?

Thanks!
