Dear Community,

I have installed Thunderbird on a new system and imported my mailbox and archives from my old Mac (both running macOS). I am currently using macOS Monterey 12.7.6 and Thunderbird 40.5.0 ESR (64-bit).

All messages—whether imported or newly received—both in the Inbox and in archives are showing the month as April (i.e., xx/4/xx). This issue also appears in the email body when replying or forwarding messages. Please note that the day and year are correct, only the month appears incorrectly as “4” (April)on all messages.

Messages in the imported local folder archives display the correct dates. I have email folders going back to 2006, and I would greatly appreciate your guidance to resolve this issue.

Many thanks in advance, Leonardo

Firefox translating to estonian for NO reason

I do not live in Estonia, I don't know estonian, I don't have estonian set as a language anywhere in firefox or any other settings, I don't have any estonian language packs downloaded, the only time I was involved with it was when I accidentally clicked on 'estonian' instead of 'english' when trying to translate a page (once, I clicked on it accidentally once as far as I remember, one single time and no more. Only one time this happened. Once), and it somehow just can not cease asking me to translate pages to estonian, anything that isn't in english, somehow it tolerates that. Actually how does this happen and how do I fix it

Some of my email subject lines are in English, why is "corbeille" = trash, "envoie" = send, etc.? How can I change everything to French?

Incoming mail (txt only; no html) is getting more and more unreadable the last weeks. It looks like in the attached screenshot. I am desperate. What can be the cause of this?

At the same time there are problems with outgoing mail. Characters like 9 or : do not appear on screen although I typed them. When I copy the text to another program, these characters do show. Very annoying. Hope there is a solution to be found somewhere!

Best, Mike

Hello,

I have an issue when i try exporting contacts from thunderbird as well as when trying to export mailboxes. I have most of the folder names and contacts in greek and whenever i try to export them they look jumbled and unreadable. The english ones look fine as do the special characters, but the greek typing in the folder structures and the contacts is just a garbled mess.

Is there anything that can be done to mitigate or resolve this other than manually renaming everything?

Thank you for the help.

I dropped by to see if I replies to a query about Thunderbird. Sometimes the options to Login wouldn't let me in, it kept going to "Como colaborar" that went to a Page with mixed English and Portuguese, another page had mixed Spanish, Portuguese and English.

After a lot of translating, I made it my login. Wow! And my day has just begun. :) ~r
