Might I suggest that you create a portable version of Thunderbird? I do not wish to use the version put out by portableapps.com. I always prefer to use portable software developed by the original source.

Thank you.

I installed the latest version of Thunderbird (128.6.0esr) on my new laptop (17 inch ASUS w/ 40 gb memory and 4 tb hd). I installed my e-mail information (mcarroll@iximd,com with the associated parameters), BUT this Thunderbird will not access my mail. I checked back on the installation and the new Thunderbird wants a "primary password". I was NEVER asked to create one and have not been able to change/create a new "primary password". I have tried deleting the program from the computer, downloading and reinstalling another copy, but end up with the same problem. How do I fix this problem? Or do I have to use Outlook or some other mail program from the internet? mcarroll@iximd.com

Hello,

My Thunderbird is on 140.0ESR - just updated yesterday. This morning I am noticing that when I open an email to read, and then close it, my inbox automatically scrolls from the top of the box to the place where that just read email is located. It used to just close and I could open the next one - now it goes through this momentary, fast scroll and then stops at the most recently read. It doesn't seem to matter if there are unread messages in the mailbox - it does the same thing when all messages have been read.

Very strange behavior - and just started with 140.0ESR.

Any ideas appreciated. Thanks!

I am trying to set up Thunderbird and I get a message "Configuration found in Mozilla ISP database". When I click done, I get "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration username or password" HELP! Prefer a phone call.

When I want to forward a link, article, or anything really, I get a box that asks if I want to install Thunderbird, which is already installed, and clicking on buttons for exit, or anything else doesn't work, nothing except moving to forward to install it again. Which I have tried, and that doesn't work, either. I am just stuck!

trying to install thunderbird on a new laptop. got the donation screen, donated. got the thank you screen, it says carry on and complete installation but there is nothing to install, no files downloaded and everything takes me back to the first screen and the thank you screen. I'm getting to the point of taking my donation back and just sticking with outlook!!!

I started getting error messages to say that my account was rejected at the server, This happened on all my email accounts. I obviously checked that the configuration of the accounts was correct although they had been working previously. I removed my VPN and Firewall, removed the app and deleted residual data and then re-installed. I still have the same/similar problem, when i try to add an account i get a message saying "Unable to login to Server, probably the wrong configuration, username or password" All of which have been checked multiple times.

I had not used the Firefox browser in a few days, so when I went back in today it asked me to update it. I did, and now every page I go to freezes and the browser locks up. Is there some way to get rid of this latest update? I have Windows 11.

I am running Windows 11 and the latest version of Firefox. Firefox was working perfectly yesterday, but today when I tried to open it, I got the message "This app can't run on your PC". What could be the problem and how do I fix it?

Thanks,

David

A recent Thunderbird update (auto update) must've been interrupted, because I keep getting a "Reboot your computer to complete the update" message. I have rebooted many times with no change. I tried to uninstall Thunderbird, but get the same message. I also tried to reinstall it, but no change. The Thunderbird icon has also changed to a computer with a disk in the front. Any ideas??

I recently installed Thunderbird on a new installation of Ubuntu 24.04 using the "Installing Thunderbird manually" instructions. Everything works fine except that Thunderbird doesn't want to use the Thunderbird icon in the dock. Thunderbird opens and runs fine when I click on the Thunderbird icon, but it then puts a new default icon on the dock that looks like a gear instead of just "using" the Thunderbird icon to indicate that the application is running. I've attached a screenshot. When I close Thunderbird, the gear icon disappears.
