Hi,

When viewing an email thread, I see all "copies" of an email, like label folders. (See image)

How do I remove all these duplicates?

Also, on another topic, when I forward mail from one account to another (so that I have that mail in both accounts) - and I have both accounts configured in Thunderbird - the second (forwarded) mail generates a notification sound - but no notification popup. Can this notification sound be eliminated (like the msg display popup does not happen)? It is useless.

Thanks!

Within last 2 to 3 weeks I noticed that when I click Get Messages the momentary line of text at bottom-left typically says "there are no new messages", or the "number of messages" about to be downloaded. (This is not the notification window at lower right.) Recently the number of messages actually received is not always correct. For instance, this morning the message was clearly "downloading messages 3 of 3", but only one appeared as a new, unread message in my inbox. This has occurred several times, sometimes qty is correct, sometimes not. My first question is whether this is a bug in Thunderbird, or something I need to pursue with my email provider? Second question: I am only requesting those for my account, but might the "missing messages" be downloaded for my wife's email?

If missing messages are for my wife how do I fix it so I only download mine? She doesn't have admin rights and I made no changes to our account settings. If missing messages are not hers then I am seriously concerned about this issue.

Using Thunderbird on Linux I cannot delete any local folders, when I try to delete them I get more copies of the folders on reopening Thunderbird, after the system says it is "not responding" and I close it down. I have tried several times and now have multiple copies of the local folders I've tried to delete.

When Supernova 115.2.3 starts up the CPU usage goes to 11-14% until the calendar brought into focus and then CPU usage drops to less than 1%. This problem exists on all up to date Win 10 Lenovo i7 PCs on which Supernova 115.2.3 is installed - it is not unique to one PC

There were claims that this issue would be fixed in version 115.2.2 BUT now in version 115.2.3 it still exists.

Will this issue be address soon?

I'm developing an android app that uses the OAuth2.0 auth code flow to authenticate users. The app launches a CustomTab which in turn, responds with a redirect to the app's redirect scheme. Chrome redirects immediately, closing the CustomTab. Firefox does nothing regardless of the state of the "Open in app" setting.

In order to reproduce this: 1. Create an android app with a redirect scheme 2. Create a webserver that simply redirects to that scheme 3. From the app, open a CustomTab to the webserver 4. Observe the CustomTab not redirect

For a more concrete example, I can reliably reproduce using the sample app from https://github.com/kalinjul/kotlin-multiplatform-oidc and an [Authentik](https://goauthentik.io/) server but I'm sure something like Auth0 would have the same problem.

I used Thunderbird for years with my account A, recently added account B. Now messages arriving at account A are quickly moved within seconds into trash for account B. What have I done wrong? Help

Created several email mailing lists. Stored them in the Personal Address Book (PAB). I'm sorry, but Thunderbird doesn't seem to work like any other email client. How do I address an email using one of those mailing lists in the PAB. Tried typing the whole name of the mailing list in the To: field. Didn't work. I'm not entirely stupid but it doesn't make sense to me.

I just installed Thunderbird (working elsewhere) on a Windows 11 machine, and used the 'auto setup' feature. Sending/receiving works fine, but for every message sent:

1. A pop-up appears, which reads 'Your message was sent but a copy was not placed in your sent folder (Sent) due to network or file access errors. You can retry or save the message to Local Folders/Sent-mydomain.com

2. The current command did not succeed. The mail server for account mydomain.com responded [TRYCREATE] Folder doesn't exist. (Failure).

Sent messages appear just fine locally in Thunderbird, and also on Gmail, and they send fine as well, so I just need to disable the incorrect error messages. Thanks for any help (NOOB level tech savvy).

Hello Thunderbird users!

Today my father lost all the sub folders below the folder Archives. Doe anybody know how to get them back?

I tried the following:

• Clicked on Folder Modes -> All Folders
• Tried the solution mentioned here: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Local_Folders

The strange thing is I also don't see any .sbd or .msf files, with one of the names he mentions, under the directory Mail (in the profile directory). How can they suddenly disappear or be deleted?

If someone knows how to get the folders (with the e-mails) back, that would be very much appreciated!

Hello, I would be grateful for help onm the two following problems in Thunderbird. 1. When someone sends me a web page link, I click on it and get the error message 0x80070057. I have tried the suggested solutions in regedit but it does not work. 2. When I buy something on ebay they send me an email confirmation with a picture of the item purchased. When I go to print it the image disappears.

I am losing what hair that I have left as I am a senior citizen.

many thanks in anticipation. kr David

Hello,

I am trying to sign in to my Yahoo email account in Thunderbird. I enter my email address, and my password (double checking it's correct), then I click Continue, then it finds a POP3 configuration for my email address. Then I click Done, and it stays stuck on "Checking Password", until ultimately it tells me "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username, or password."

Aside from this, I would like to store all my emails on the server (using IMAP?) and not on my computer using POP3. So when I go to configure IMAP manually and try to type in the values on this page ( https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN4075.html ) (although the fields don't exactly match), I type everything in and the "Done" button is greyed out so I can't even continue.

I found one other topic but they got farther than I did and they got to the Yahoo sign in screen which I did not, and they are using OAuth2 which I don't think I am, but I'm not sure.

Does anyone know how I can fix this and set up my Yahoo account with Thunderbird?

Thank you,

Michael Murrin

bold text All of a sudden today Saturday the 11th Thunderbird stopped sending email on COX but it can receive them. It was working fine then all of a sudden the sending of email stopped. At first I thought that is was Cox being down again, (I've had connection problems this week). But while I was trying to figure it out I received a number of emails. I tried sending a test email to myself usually they go right away but it did not go.

I called Cox. They tech connected to my computer, made some checks, (updated Thunderbird) and after about 20 minutes it started to send messages. 10 minutes later it stopped working AGAIN. This started a four hour telephone marathon with just about every level of service that Cox has. I ended up with Complete Care and while I was on the phone with him and he was connected to my computer the service tech from Cox who was here to check my signal and modem showed up. He tried to look at the problem and could not figure it out. Note I can send and receive mail from the COX email website but and only receive email in Thunderbird.

Cox tells me it is a Mozilla or Thunderbird problem I'm telling them it is not that it is a Cox problem because the server is SENDING me email to Thunderbird but the Cox INCOMING mail server it not connecting to Thunderbird to receive emails. They claim that because I can send and receive on the web page but can not send with Thunderbird. I'm telling them it is a Cox problem.

Anyone else have this issue? Anyone have a solution? I'm shutdown here with over a 25 year history of emails sitting in Thunderbird.

Deleting messages is slow to act. So much so that hitting delete for a msg won't activate but when hit again it takes the msg to be deleted and the one that follows. What the...?

I had a few issues with Hotmail and Firefox in the past as described in other posts. Now it has stepped up a gear. I can use the internet for anything, but the moment I open my Hotmail account in Firefox my Lan card stops working. At first I had no idea it was Hotmail, I tried everything from switching cables to using wifi only. When it happened on wifi I realised every time I went into Hotmail on Firefox my network card stopped functioning and I had to restart the computer. The thing is, when I use Hotmail through Microsoft Edge nothing happens and all is well with the world!!! No network card shutdown. I could read between the lines but I'm no conspiracy theorist, however, I don't think the problem is with Firefox. Is there any solution? I don't use Edge and I don't want to start.
