I'm using Thunderbird on my Chromebook. I can't use the pointer to open the "more options" menu (the three dots) in the email to get to forward and other options. Hovering over the dots shows the "More Options" message, but clicking does not open the menu. I have a touch screen chromebook and discovered that I can touch the three buttons and it opens. Once the menu is opened, the mouse pointer works to select forward and the other options.

I'm using Thundebrird version 17.0 on Android 15. I sent last month an email (from Thundebrird Desktop) to multiple people and got from around 20 of them responses which I critically need to preserve. I deleted none of them (intentionally). Today I found out that 15 of them disappeared from my inbox, when checking on Thunderbird on my laptop. On my phone I can find those 15 in my trash folder grouped together. I was super relieved to find these critical responses but also confused since I definitely didn't delete 15 of those emails. Most likely they were grouped together and I swipe delete them by accident. I mark each of them and select "move to" -> "Inbox". And now they just vanished. They are no longer in my trash and don't show up in my inbox. Normally when I move from deleted to inbox they move fine, same for spam.

Anything I could do? Anywhere I could look for these emails?

Thunderbird no longer syncs new mail

I installed Thunderbird on a new Motorola Razr running Android 15. It worked just fine for a few days, but now will not download any new emails (GMail on the same phone is working fine). I have two accounts installed. One (much smaller) seems to be working fine, while the other is only partially working. Namely, I can only see emails from Monday or earlier (today is Thursday).

If I use my desktop to delete one of the older messages that is displayed on the phone, it will be removed from the phone the next time I swipe down and have it refresh the inbox. If I use the desktop to update the read/unread status of an email that does appear one the phone, that is not updated when I refresh the phone.

It is a recently added account, is it possible that the device is just downloading older messages and is backed up? I don't know where or how I could access the activity monitor (or whatever the proper name is) to see what the program is or is not doing.

Imported desktop settings to TB Android on my phone. Used your instructions and seemed to go well (done it before). Android install of both Gmail accounts I imported are 'stuck' showing ONLY the outboxes. Can't get anywhere else. What do I need to do to correct the install on my phone. Desktop install was done manually and seems to work.

Hello, this problem is driving me mad and I am at the point where I give up with Thunderbird

What's happening is "random" emails go into the outbox and stay there, I have no choice but to delete them.

There is no rhyme or reason for this.

The majority of emails send, even to the address that will randomly stay in outbox. !!

I have deleted the account and reinstalled it, used the same settings that are on another account that I don't have a problem with.

I am using android on galaxy tablet.

Anyone have any ideas

Thanks
