I believe I found a bug. When drafting an email and switching away from Thunderbird the draft email gets sent but still remains in the drafts folder.

I created two emails today and had to switch away multiple times to get some information to paste into the emails. Thunderbird evidently sent out the draft in its current format whenever I switched away from the app.

I've been "sending" e-mail from my Android phone for six weeks now. It looks like it's going out, but it never gets outside the domain.

I found the suggestion that I check my SMTP settings, but I used a wizard within TB for Mac so I cannot find the SMTP settings on the phone.

The wizard wasn't very wizard: I don't have the contacts stored within TB or the mail from my computer or anything. All I can do is receive e-mail.

I really need to get this working. My computer has died, and everything is going via the phone, and I only use e-mail for communication, not voice or text. (Long story, please don't argue with me about that.)

I just updated Android again yesterday, and TB should be upgrading automatically, if I have this thing set right.

Update: I have found the SMTP settings. They look correct.

My sister's e-mail is working, so the problem is definitely with my settings somehow.

Does anyone have any ideas? I really want to stick with TB.

Update 2: I found the debugging settings and turned on extra logging, but I can't find the logs themselves. Could someone point me to them?

I also tried the TB beta because it says explicitly that it does POP3, but that didn't seem to help either.

Now that I can edit my question, how do I delete the answers that are actually just updates?

Update 4: A different app works. I'd rather use TB if it can be arranged, though. . . .

Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you!

I want to use Thunderbird for Android and connected my mailbox with imap and smtp. So far so good. But i dont see a adresboek and i dont know where to connect my carddav addressbook. Can you help me?

Hello, I just organized Thunderbird mobile on my Samsung tablet. On the desktop, Thunderbird shows a menu and a address book. When I get an Email I can save the mail address in my address book. But, Thunderbird mobile doesn't show a menu nor a address book and it does not use the contact saved at the tablet. Can anyone help me to solve this problem? Thanks a lot!! Regards, Monika

Hallo, kürzlich habe ich Thunderbird mobil auf meinem Samsung Tablet installiert. Leider zeigt die App keine Menüleiste und keine Option eines Adressbuches. Dazu greift Thunderbird auch nicht auf gespeicherte Kontakte zu. Bei der Desktopversion wird sowohl die Menüleiste als auch ein Adressbuch angezeigt. Könnte mir bitte jemand behilflich sein, dieses Problem zu lösen? Vielen Dank! Grüße, Monika

Hello, I had a lot of adresses in my adressbook. Suddenly at the beginning of this year all adresses were gone. Is there any possibility to get them back? Hope anybody can help me. Thank you!

I have TB Mobile for Android Version 8.2 on my Samsung A54 running Android 14. I have done numerous searches, but can not find any way to move an email that I accidentally sent to Trash or Spam back to Inbox (or any other folder for that matter). Am I missing something or is this feature simply not available?

I can do the above with my Yahoo mail on my A54 which has a menu that lets me move any email from folder to folder.

Thanks for any help.

I installed Thunderbird for Android today on my Moto g stylus. I used the QR code to import the settings from Thunderbird on my Windows 10 laptop. In general, things seem to be working, but outgoing messages are not being copied to the "sent" folder. I can see older "sent" messages that were sent from my Windows 10 Thunderbird, but no sent messages that originated from my phone. I have an IMAP mail server.

382 / 5 000 Hello, Push mails after importing QR code of accounts from thunderbird PC do not work despite the configuration: - deactivation of synchronization - activation of push There is no visual or audio notification. These notifications only work by creating the accounts manually. Thunderbird 128.4.3 esr Android 8.1 in Motorola 5 Any idea? Thanks

Hey everyone,

I’ve noticed that on Thunderbird for Android, some of my email accounts get new messages with a delay of up to 15 minutes. I’d really like to get them instantly (or at least much faster).

A few details: - The email server is my university’s, so it might not have the latest sync features. - I set the folder poll frequency to 15 minutes, and emails do come through fine that way — just too slow. - I also set “refresh IDLE connection” to every 2 minutes. - Running version 13.0 of Thunderbird on Android.

Is there any way to make Thunderbird fetch or push emails instantly? Or is this delay just how it works if the mail server doesn’t fully support push/IDLE?

Thanks for any tips or ideas!

What I delete an email message on my phone, it disappears in my app. But when I check on my computer and in my old email app, the deleted message is still there.

I've checked in multiple email accounts and multiple messages.

Thanks Jim King

Hi,

I've recently switched from K9 to Thunderbird. Never had any issues with K9, just liked that Thunderbird was basically the same but without the dated look.

Thunderbird however does not send any push notifications.

What I've done this far: -Re-install Thunderbird -Check if Thunderbird has notification permissions (it does) -Exclude Thunderbird from any and all power management

However, I still have not received a single push notification this far.

Does anyone know a workaround for this? Or is this maybe some kind of bug?

I'm using a Nokia G42 5G with stock Android 14.
