Thunderbird Support Forum

Been using Thunderbird for 20 years but never had this issue. I might have pressed some keyboard shortcut wrongly?

My inbox does not show any message, even though there are two of them (and more incoming, there was one when the issue started). As far as I can see, I have no filters of any kind activated.

Any idea how to see the invisible messages again?

Thanks!

I use the global search a lot (when it works!) I don't like the way the results are displayed so I always click 'show results as list'. Is there a way to make that the default way search results are displayed? thanks

I have the wrong server setting. It is currently using the server name "imap01.crystone.se" but I need to have "imap.websupport.se". Everytime I try to change this it changes back to the first server name again. I have tried to reinstall thunderbird, and deleted the account and adding it again, but nothing works. As for now I can't see or write any emails. Any ideas?

I had to reinstall the program, I can now receive emails, but I can't send them, my ISP support indicates that I need to have the "requires server authorization" option active, I can't see that option (Google translator)

I am trying to set up three email addresses in Thunderbird from a domain that I own.

I can set the first one up but when i attempt to set the second one up, using exactly the same IMAP and SMTP details, it says it cant find it and wont set it up.

I have checked and nothing is different. Any ideas how to solve?

Thanks

Hello, I am using : 115.11.1 (64-bit) The last mail I have received was on 14/06. I have check the POP mail server, I have tried to open at the same time my mail box on the yahoo platform and on Thunderbird. I haven't changed anything and do not understand why suddenly i cannot see my new mails. I can send mails without issue though. Can someone help ? Thank you Sand

After updating to the latest Thunderbird I checked my emails and closed the program - but not from the inbox. Now, T'bird insists on opening into that same screen and there is no link to to show my inbox. I have removed and re-installed T'bird with no result. I have tried approximately 15 'sure' fixes from the internet and Mozilla but without success. Finally I read that the new version will open the screen which you were last using at shutdown, but there is no link to open the inbox. There is no link to the inbox on the left side of screen nor a down caret on the right hand side of screen. I have no folders showing, such as "Inbox", "Drafts", "Sent" or 'Local Folder'. I have referred to the Mozilla list of shortcuts without success. My inbox is not empty F5 and Shift + F5 do nothing. The email address for my PC is: albanv@netspace.net.au How can I show my inbox?

Hello, ive been using T'Bird as my business email client.

Whenever I hit send it requires me to type the password in. How can i get it to remember it? Ive been through the settings and there is no option to save.

Ive tried deleting my account and adding a new one but its no different.

I Can't send or receive emails from Thunderbird, over 24 hours now. I get error message above and repeated requests to log on with my passwords, but my password doesn't work. I log onto and go to my AOL server to see my emails.

I have been using Thunderbird for more than a decade. I have two email addresses at verizon.net. Suddenly this week one of them stopped working an an message asking for my password appears dozens of times. AOL now manages the verizon.net email server. I can login using my password to the host email for that email account so I know that a password associated with that account. But I suspect the problem is a different password and I don't know how to fix it.

If I go to Tools/setting in Thunderbird, there is button labeled "Saved Passwords.

For the working email account, there are two records. For the failing email account, there is only one record. the one that is missing is "mailbox://pop.verizon.net" I suspect that is the problem.

Any ideas about whether my analysis is correct and, if so what to do about it?

Thanks

I've encountered one message in Thunderbird that has remote content enabled (which I don't recall explicitly enabling). In Settings, under "Allow remote content in messages" (unchecked), the "Exceptions..." list is empty. I've also cleared the cache, switched to offline mode, and went back to that message, but it still shows remote content.

I had to convert from POP to IMAP and did not set up a new account, just changed the old one from POP to IMAP. When I did this I lost all my folders and inbox. How to I restore the folders to my new IMAP account?

Currently my emails are sorted by conversation. I want this stopped and all messages simply sorted only by date and time. The reason is that some conversations now have 30 odd messages and I have a terrible time finding the exact message I want. This would be much easier if all emails were sorted by date and time only as I can see the title of each. How do I stop sorting by conversation and replace it with standard date and time?

It has been one year, and you still have not fixed the multiselect functionality that was ruined with your Supernova "update" (which is worse in almost all aspects btw). Can you at least tell us WHEN you plan to release the fix since you locked the comments to block the countless negative ones? Is it so hard for your UX team to understand that removing multiselect functionality is like removing Ctrl+C, and Ctrl+V and set the correct priority???

I was finally forced to upgrade from win7 (which worked) to win 10 (me no likey) because of a required program which would not even install on win7. After the upgrade, which obliterated my hard drive of several important things, I am reinstalling TB. I always used an NAS directory for Thunderbird, and have email records going back nearly twenty years. I installed TB 115 and have tried several ways to get it to recognize my profile directory on the NAS to no avail. I tried copying data into the default directory the 115 install is looking at. The about:profiles shows it is looking in the correct directory, it produces a parent.lock file in that directory when I run the program. It does not give me my email, or contacts. I do not use the calendar or to-do lists.

My system is an AMD K6-6400K with 16 GB and a 500 GB drive. Though programs are loaded on the drive ALL data is stored in an NAS. There is about 375 GB available on the C drive.

I have used the cmd line to pull up profile manager, added a profile, pointed it to the data that is on the NAS, a parent lock file is created there too but it shows me no mail.

I have edited the profiles.ini file manually to have the program look at the directories, both the NAS and a local directory which has had the old files entered. Neither worked.

I tried opening TB and creating a new profile and pre-loading the info there, nothing. I've been at this for days now. I have uninstalled and removed manually all TB folders and reinstalled older versions to give that a go but without effect. I am no Luddite (Many years ago I owned a system integration, assembly and install company doing networking for the military as a civilian contractor.) but someone has to explain this to me like I am a five year old. There is no reason having my email back should be this difficult!

PLEASE give me a hand?

My TB directory appears in C:\Users\owner\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird My old data folder was on a network drive at M:\Users\owner\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\profiles\k5zbs5az.default When I manually enter the M: address in the profiles.ini file, it "corrects" it to C:\Users\owner\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\ even though the switch 'relative' is off.

[Profile1] Name=default IsRelative=1 Path=Profiles/zpfeu8eu.default Default=1

[Profile0] Name=default-beta IsRelative=0 Path=C:\Users\owner\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird

[General] StartWithLastProfile=0 Version=2

[Install5D388C1349709B37] Default=C:\Users\owner\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird Locked=1

Running the Mozilla application with a specific profile using command line arguments brings up the program but no mail. It creates a lock file in the correct directory, but no joy.

I get no pop up error messages.

Hello,

All my outgoing messages are bouncing back to me, no matter who I send or reply to, just from one of my email addresses: heidi@benvenutotravel.com

So I cannot reply to anyone nor send, although it shows copies in my sent folder???
