I just installed Thunderbird 91.8.1 and would like to migrate pst files generated by Outlook 2010.

It somewhat works - if I do "Tools --> Import --> Mail --> Next" and select Outlook, Thunderbird starts importing apparently all the pst files that are present on the PC, without allowing which ones to import to be explicitly specified.

Is there a way to specify which specific pst files are to be imported?

So Firefox did an auto-update a few days ago, and when I opened the browser EVERYTHING was gone. Passwords, bookmarks, etc.

I've managed to get the old bookmarks moved over, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the old passwords back. The old data is in a folder on my desktop, do I just copy and paste the login and key 4 files from that folder to the new folder?

Sorry if this seems like a dumb question, I'm a pleb and this is the first time I've experienced this. :(

I'm using TB 91.7.0 (64-bit) on Mint Linux. I somehow deleted a folder full of messages.

I do have a backup of the entire TB folder from few days ago, but can't figure out how to restore that folder back into the main TB universe.

Everything I have found says to use https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-CA/thunderbird/addon/importexporttools/ but that apparently has been corrupted as a protest by the author.

"Apparently the add-on has been corrupted by the author. "The site and all the extensions have been made unavailable as a form of protest against the illegal fascist measures and abuses against personal rights that have been occurring in Italy (the country where I live) since March 2020."

So, can someone tell me how to restore a folder of messages back into my T-bird successfully? Thanks everyone, Barry

When I downloaded and sync Gmail to thunderbird, I encountered the following issues:

1. The number of emails on ALL MAIL folder is not the same as that in my Gmail. Thunderbird has more than 800 emails compared to my Gmail.

2. When I randomly check my emails through the search function, the emails can not be found on the location it states thy are. Ex. location=all mail , but when I search ALL mail , the email in not there.

3. SAME Email but the timestamp in Thunderbird is 1 minute less than the time stamp in the Gmail. Ex. In Gmail time stamp is 11:04 am , in thunderbird it is 11:03am

4. Also can I change the Date Pattern in Thunderbird from DD/MM/YYYY to MM/DD/YYYY?

Thank you!

oAuth2 Gmail and Thunderbird

Hello all,

I have several machines we use thunderbird and gmail connection on.

We can only get the accounts to link if the authorizations is set to "normal password"

From what I have read on the forum, we will need to change the authentication to oAuth2 for our accounts to work after May 30th.

Following the steps to do so, and authenticating (and allowing access) in the browser, I am unable to send/receive on the thunderbird side. Switch it back to normal password and it will again work properly.

Is there anything I missed here? Not understanding why we cannot get Oauth2 to work.

Current Settings

IMAP enabled in gmail Cookies allowed in thunderbird Less secure apps off in gmail (trying to get ahead of this before May) private/public windows defender firewall off

Thank you

Why is firefox automatically downloading strange files I've never seen before? (MEUIVFJ-.htm and 3tHMwYhc) They look a little untrustworthy. My download dropdown suddenly showed me that one had been downloaded, and then a while later the other one was downloaded. Are these actual Mozilla files? Or are they some kind of scam/trojan/spyware? I just realized that two were downloaded last month as well.
