Since December last about every 30 days or so Outlook locks my account. This only happens when I "hit" send on an outgoing message from Thunderbird. A friend has suggested that Outlook sees my outgoing e-mails as spam and when it reaches a critical number Outlook locks my account. Attached is a screenshot of the error message. Has anyone else run into this problem and, if so, is there a solution? Thanks, Ken.

I've been trying to get Thunderbird (102.6.0) to filter messages based on message body contents that contain specific URLs (such as "https://docsend.com"), but it's not working. I even tried setting emails to be viewed in plain text (as opposed to HTML), but that also didn't work.

How can I achieve this?

I've been using TB for years. I don't mind using google calendar, but contacts? This window has been popping up today for no apparent reason. If I dismiss it, it comes back in a few minutes. It seems to be a TB process. I'm on Windows 7. I do have W10 & 11 on laptops, haven't checked yet to see whether this nastiness occurs on them.

Thunderbird version 115.11.1 (64-bit)

I belong to a group of 11 people, and one or another of us occasionally sends a group email around to everybody. Those emails usually call for responses to some question or issue involving all of us.

And here's my problem -- sometimes when I hit REPLY ALL, my reply goes out showing someone else in the group as the sender, not me. That can lead to confusion, of course, as the others in the group will think my reply came from that someone else. Anyway, I include a couple of screen shots. And I deleted from the images any info showing my address or anyone else's. I did leave the usernames, so that I can explain.

They are "Fletcher Lokey" / flokey and "Susan Dyment" / sdyment.

First one (1.jpg) shows what I see when I click REPLY ALL. You would expect my username and address to be showing at the top, but it's Susan Dyment's name and address. AND, at the far right end, you see "flokey", which should not be associated with Susan Dyment, I would think.

Second one (2.jpg) shows what I see when I click that small "down arrow" at the far right end of the box. My username and address are then seen at the top of the dropdown, circled in red. But the entry for Susan Dyment is the one selected at the start. When I select my info, things get straightened out. I also have a gmail account, which is showing as the third option in the dropdown. That's only there because it was part of the experiment I did so I could get the screenshots

So I have to be paying attention, so I can correct it if it happens.

I've hunted through my address book for any clue to why Susan's info is the one selected when REPLY ALL is called. In fact, I'm left wondering why anyone EXCEPT me would be in that dropdown box. And why in the world does Susan Dyment have "flokey" associated with it there?

I hope that's not too confusing. And any help appreciated

Thunderbird uses random sender email address

I have a recurring but random problem when I reply to an email with a distribution list. TB seems to select an email address from the CC addresses on the original email rather than my mailbox address. example - mail received from user A with copy to B C D E. I reply to all and sometimes the sender address used by the system is one of the CC addresses (ie B C D or E). All users are getting the message but they think it was sent by somebody else. This could be a sensitive problem if I was making a report and then wondered why there was no follow up. Is there a setting somewhere that decides which sender address I use? I use two accounts, one is my internet provider (BT) and the other is Gmail. So far, I have only been advised of Gmail errors. Thanks in advance.

Recently for no apparent reason I'm not receiving any emails to my email accounts. This happened about 2 weeks ago, after some clicking I was ask to authorize some form and this resolved the difficulty. However it has now returned with a vengeance and none of my accounts are receiving any emails. I have not made any alteration or tampered with any account settings. Yesterday the emial system was operating perfectly but today absolutely nothing only the emails received yesterday are showing. All I get is a notice advising that whatever email address I click on "connected to emap@ gmail.com" or what other incomming connecting is used. My FireFox was updated about 2 hours ago whilst trying to open my emails. Can someone help or do I close the account ?
