Please helps me get my lost mail from thunderbird inbox.which is from 2018.
Suddenly cannot receive emails.

The last version of Thunderbird that I downloaded and installed was V91.0.2 in 2021. When I installed this latest upgrade my email was totally screwed up. I lost my address book and everything else. Support finally gave up I guess because they quit replying to my posts. I have been just using GMail as my email host. I think I would like to try to be able to use Thunderbird again but, I assume it would require a totally new install and I have no idea where to start. I am not a computer guru so would need my hand held to do this. Thank you

Hi, All. I store older emails in subfolders by year within Local Folders, and I've specified that Thunderbird store Local Folders on a toggleable remote drive. The idea is that I will just toggle that remote drive on when I need to access Local Folders messages.
Thankfully, when I start Thunderbird with the remote drive off, Local Folders appears without any references to inbox or sent folders (since it can't find the drive), and also thankfully it doesn't throw any "Can't find drive x" error messages. When Thunderbird is open, and I turn the drive on, however, it does not display the remote Local Folders content.
Other than completely closing and reopening Thunderbird, is there a way to have it more easily load the Local Folders content when the drive is turned on - either automatically or manually?
Thank you

I can't do batch delete or move from the Inbox. It will only do one file at a time, despite the fact that several are highlighted.
It is also repeatedly trying to download a few thousand files to the Inbox. It gets to the number of files, then hangs, then starts to do it again (except each time it's fewer files to download). I don't know if the two problems are related.

i am using TB 115.10.1 (64-bit) on Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS expected behavior:
the msg should be moved to the junk folder on Local Folders, marked as junk and NOT placed in the Inbox
actual behavior:
the msg is usually (but not always) copied to the folder "junk" on "Local Folders" and a copy is left in the Inbox
i have many other filters like this, most always work, some occasionally do not. this particular filter has approx 30 such rules each with different matching content, some with domain names, some with portions of IP address. furthermore, other filter rules of similar nature mostly work but occasionally do not.
i am using a customized header, "Received:"
the filter (named "received by #10" :
apply filter when: Filter Before Junk Classification
match any of the following Received contains [128.245. # should match all 128.245.x.x hosts
perform these actions: Move Message to junk on Local Folders Set Junk Status to junk Stop Filter Execution
one of the "Received:" headers contains:
Received: from mta.s.alivebusinessplan.com ([128.245.246.45]) by mx.mail.com...
filter log content:
[6/2/24, 17:04:06 GMT-4] Applied filter "received by #10" to message from "Mark White (ABP)" <send@s.alivebusinessplan.com> - 66,000% upside on tiny biotech at 6/2/24, 17:04:04 GMT-4 junk score

" Mark White (ABP)" <send@s.alivebusinessplan.com> - 66,000% upside on tiny
biotech at 6/2/24, 17:04:04 GMT-4 execution stopped
questions: 1. why this behavior? what'd i do wrong? 2. is there a limit on the number of filters? 3. is there a limit on the number of rules per filter?

1 Yesterday I moved many MB of emails from Outlook to Thunderbird, now Tbird login to Outlook fails; password that works in browsers seems not to be accepted.
I suspect the drastically shrunk-in-size folders need compacting (which I was going to do today) but can not get to Tbird establishing a relationship to Hotmail (now owned by Outlook). I kept expecting Tbird to tell me it was compacting the whole Outlook Inbox, but it never did.
I tried clearing the cache as suggested. Ran troubleshooting but it merely displayed settings but no explanation.
Hotmail was my first email account (1995 or so), but Microsoft having bought it and it therefore now being subject to whatever inconsistencies they have introduced in the past year or so, I did what I did last night was the first step to moving emails off of their Outlook server onto my hard drive in advance of closing that account. Thunderbird seemed like the mos efficient way to keep emails while emptying their folders in Outlook.
2 If/When I get it back, I would appreciate advice on how to avoid this happening again.
Thank you.

I have been receiving emails and newsletters from a number of companies for many years. Suddenly last December many stopped coming. I have been in touch with one in particular and I am still on their mailing list. I am unable to find anywhere I can check. And before anyone says check your Junk folder. I do that every day. It has gotten to the point where I will have to stop using Thunderbird. Where can I look to find out what is wrong.

Since moving from Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS (Focal Fossa) to 22.04.04 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish) 2 days ago the appearance of my Email (from the Inbox) has changed. Not in a nice way. On the web I found ways to re-install Thunderbird (using the Thunderbird "Help" option) but that does not work anymore. Thanks, Teun.
Is there any way to prevent Thunderbird notices from interrupting full screen programs? Every time one pops up, it minimizes my program.

Have been using Thunderbird for years with my cox.net account. Recently TB update115 happened and cox.net go moved to Yahoo. Under the old systems, (cox.net and pre 115) I was able to have spam emails delivered directly to my Spam folder. With the migration of cox to Yahoo, and TB 115 I don't have a Spam folder. I have a Bulk folder and a Junk folder. I have figured out that the Bulk has replaced the Spam folder. However, spam does not show up in the folder automatically. I have to select the folder, then after about 3-5 seconds messages will appear. Again, in the past spam would be moved to the spam folder and the folder would change to dark and a # would appear beside the folder indicating that a new message had been added to the folder.
Is there a way that I can set up TB115 to do the same thing? I have tried but I can't figure it out. Thanks in advance.

I work pretty much exclusively using Unified Folders, in particular a Unified Inbox. Thunderbird 115.11.0 checks for new messages on schedule and downloads from all three of my accounts automatically throughout the day. But if I want to do a manual download, the little cloud-with-an-arrow checks only my primary account, not the other two. Yet when I right-click the little cloud, that identical icon purports to represent all accounts. Am I misunderstanding something? Is there a way to essentially replace the one little cloud with the other so that a right-click and second selection is no longer necessary?

Thunderbird doesn't consistently show messages for "digest" mailing-list emails. E.g. for a subscription to "users-digest@activemq.apache.org".
Looking at an individual mail, e.g. 57170, it also does not show the contents. Using Ctrl-U to show the source then reveals the contents.

After years of operating satisfactorily now when try to get new messages I am frequently told that there are several new messages but nothing appears in my inbox. I have checked the emails on the server but they match what is in my inbox. Nothing has gone missing and I do not have a 'junk' folder. I have tried clearing the cache but it did not work. Could this be a fault with the latest update to Thunderbird? This is nothing more sinister than highly irritating
