Automatic update to 102.2.2.

When it opened, Thunderbird is asking me to set up new accounts. It doesn't show any accounts or emails from the past.

Under Help-troubleshooting-about profiles, it shows the correct profile folder. When I open the folder, all the stuff looks like it is there.

Not sure what to do now?

For reasons that will likely never be known Thunderbird stopped yesterday. Clicking on the icon showed the spinning icon for a second or two and then ended without the application starting. It had been running flawlessly for several years.

I checked with task manager, nothing from Thunderbird. I restarted. Same problem.

So, I found and installed the beta version which is working fine but I've lost my address book and message filters.

I can re-create the filters easily, but would prefer not to have to re-create the addresses. Is there a way to find the old address book(s) and use them?

Thanks -dmd-

Mbox upload to thunderbird went smooth. Setting on 14,000 emails in Local folders... However when I drag and drop that folder into the inbox of my gmail account so I can view remotely on any device, It caps out at 2500. I searched this on the web and it looks like google caps imap exchanges to 2,500/day but it says that it allows you to migrate entire inboxes up to 3 a month...

How do I get more than 2500 or set a schedule of uploading in the right order for exactly 2,500/day?

OR is there a better way altogether to get this to happen? I tried to connect my gsuite email account to pull in all old files but it could never gain access which led me down this google takeout mbox down load and upload into thunderbird

As said in the title, both Firefox, Firefox DE and Chrome will open and crash/close instantly on my new Lenovo Legion PC with Windows 11 installed on it. Only Edge works, and so far I've tried a lot of solutions : -Restart PC -Uninstall, delete files and fresh install both programs -The MSCONFIG thing and unchecking start programs -Every update Windows update recommended me -Entire new windows install, without any linking with my previous pc (which had the same problem two times already, both fixed by returning to a previous version of windows)

I believed it was a ram problem with my previous pc because it was old, but this one is completely new and has the same problem, while there's nothing except my microsoft account that is common to both PCs

I'm completely lost, help me please (writing this on another PC)

Missing folders after upgrade to 102

Hi there, After downloading and installing the new Thunderbird 102 onto my 64 bit PC, I am using imap, I have found that although all the email accounts appear there and many folders or sub folders missing. As well as the content of some folders that appear but are just empty.

For example, on my main email they Inbox appears but is greyed out and shows none of my current emails but with the sub folders they are there and the emails are there.

So: Account - me@mydomain.com Inbox - greyed out and no content Drafts - working fine Sent - working fine Spam - working fine Sub folder A - working fine Sub folder B - working fine

It’s as if it just hasn’t subscribed to the Inbox. Although that doesn’t make sense if the sub folders are there… I can send emails fine. They appear with my footer that is set up in the account and they appear when I log into webmail and look in its inbox.

I tried, using TB, to move an email into the inbox, to try and prompt the activation of the folder but as it is greyed out in the move function as well it cannot be done. I have looked at the account settings and cannot see an issue, it still has the imap address to get the emails.

Second example

Account - Me@mydomain.net No folders :(

On several other accounts I can see the account but with no folders at all below them.

When I installed it there was nothing else running, there were no issues displayed and it was, as with every other update of TB since I started using it back at the beginning, quite fast.

I made no changes to settings after install as I wanted to look around and see what had changed. I did notice that despite it being an update and is used offline that it took quite sometime to download emails in several folders. I figured it being an update that it the locally stored msf(?) files that were already on my PC.

This is really quite frustrating and disappointing as although I can use webmail it does not have as friendly user interface and accessibility as an email client and I do not use Micro$oft products.

Is there anyone that can assist with this?

Thanks for reading this and I will also thank anyone that can help.
