duplicate of /questions/1475979 thread.

Is it possible to initiate the same process that discovers the server setting when you add an email account in an already existing email account to avoid making changes in the account manually??

In order to upgrade to Win 11, unfortunately I must do a clean install.

I very much need to know what I need to do pre disk wipe to preserve my settings, do the right kind of backup of my various accounts, and be able to access my previous settings and account data once I install Tbird on my new system. It is very important for me to be able to access my old account data for legal reasons.

Thank very much in advance.

Since I migrated from ESR Channel to Release channel, the main Archive folder doesn't include all the subfolders. Later, I can manually select which folders I want to include in the main folder. For example: I can select only 2025, 2024, and 2023 subfolders to be showed inside the main Archive folders. Now, I can't find this option, and the last messages I can see are from 2023.

You ask the Thunderbird users for volontary contribution at the costs you must give the possibility for payment with bank checks payment with bank cards and or PayPal is more and more difficult now for us. Under "please select" you must notice "Other" ! kind regards Antoine

I have been using Thunderbird since it was Netscape. (that's how old I am)

In all that time, I have NEVER had a password for Thunderbird. I have never even seen an option to set up a password for Thunderbird.

I thought that maybe if there were a subscription option available now, then I would be able to subscribe, get a proper personal account, make a password for it, and once again be able to use Thunderbird for email management.

I WISH! If anyone knows the URL for a Thunderbird subscription page, please send the URL, because after much searching, I still haven't found one.

on the list of current sign ins I am unable to click “sign out” of the oldest account on the list.

with a couple others it quickly signed me out, but this on is not.

I'm setting up a gmail workspace account. I know that imap is enabled and that authentication should work through oauth2. That's what I configure and TB confirms that it can connect to the account during creation widget.

I click continue, and a new window opens which contains a site from Google asking if I confirm that TB can access my account. I click on allow, and the content in that popup disappears, but the popup remains open. Just with a blank screen.

I've tried several times. Cookies and JavaScript are allowed and enabled.

What else could be wrong here?

I have a Gmail account that I use for a volunteer organization that I am leaving. I need to turn over this email address to my successor. I have Thunderbird installed and use that to view my Gmail account. All my messages in Gmail "All Mail" folder have been "archived" or selected as archived. I like to have all my email messages saved to my laptop.

How do I do this?

I have my Thunderbird set up to receive mail from four different email addresses plus I have local folders. Is there some way of changing the order of the mailboxes? I have tried dragging them with no success.

Thunderbird v115.7.0 (32 bit) Win7 (32 bit) SP1.

I am trying to add another account, but when I fill in the account info (name, email address, and password,) it pops up an oauth2 verification window but the window "Fails to connect"

The title of the window is "Enter Credentials for (email address) on imap.comcast.net.

After some time, I get a "unable to connect" message.

I managed to copy some of the url, here is the beginning part https://oauth.xfinity.com/oauth/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=thunderbird-oauth&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost&scope=https%3A%2F%2Femail.comcast.net%2F+profile+openid&code_challenge_method=S256&code_challenge=xhwuKlnA_c...

This has happened before for Google accounts too.

Is there a fix?

Thanks, Mark.
