I didn't knowingly make any changes in Thunderbird, but my Sent folder says there are 2,669 messages in the folder, but displays an envelope and No message found. I upgraded to the latest version. How do I fix this?

(I haven't had time to move all functions to another drive.)

I seem to have caused my emails to disappear completely. I cannot find them anywhere on my macbook. I don't think there has been anything unusual from outside sources.

I fully expect that I am the cause of it, I am getting old and my so are my eyes and fingers.

I was not receiving emails from a Comcast.net email account. I called Best Buy and they used remote access to fix the problem. That fix included deleting and reinstalling the email account. After hanging up with their tech, I notices that dozens of folders and thousands of emails from the last 12 years were gone. I called the Geek Squad back and they could not solve the problem. Are the missing emails still on my computer somewhere? If not, can Comcast recover them? Please help!

All old cmptr usb ports fail.. copied most data to new computer but Moz. Thndrbrd did not copy. Installed NEW Tndrbrd and got mail, but only last 4 weeks or so since failure. Copied ALL Moz. Thndrbrd files from old to Thumb drive. Old system had 70 files, 10 folders (11*.exe, 31 *dll, 4*ini, 297MB) and 5 single element files. New Thnddrbrd has 72 files, 12 folders, 55.7MB.

Lost access to many mail folders and emails on my Windows 10 laptop!

Since April 9, 6:14 PM CDT, most folders (e.g., Drafts, Templates, Sent) on my primary laptop in my primary POP email account, [edited]@bdcusa.com, have disappeared; and ALL SUBfolders in my Inbox have disappeared. Over 185,000 emails have vanished overnight!

On my primary laptop, I'm using Thunderbird 149.0.1 (64-bit) on the release update channel, still running 64-bit Windows 10 Professional, and have nothing backed up to the cloud.

Fortunately, on my secondary laptop, I'm using Thunderbird 115.18.0 (32-bit) on the esr update channel, running 32-bit Windows 7 Professional. I say, "fortunately," because ALL folders and emails are still there, so I know they haven't been vaporized!

How do I return all folders and emails for this email account to visibility and access on my primary laptop? Detailed directions appreciated.

Updated to Version 149.0.2 (64 Bit) Beta on Win 11 - Sent items folder disappeared from Local Folders

Hi There,

Win 11 running on Dell Vostro laptop, I recently updated to Thunderbird Version 149.0.2 (64 Bit) Beta. PLEASE NOTE been using Thunderbird Email client for 5 yrs now always kept it updated to latest version ... Most recently updated to version above... Now in Local Folders lists a DELETED folder ,and instead of a SENT folder , seems it has been replaced by a new folder tagged OUTBOX. I have no problem with that if my previously sent items over many yrs use, where displayed there, but nope.... content zero.

If I use the search facility in Thunderbird it finds most recent and previous messages list of my emails for that one recipient searched for only . However would be much happier if I could just see all SENT items in one folder under LOCAL FOLDERS , TAGGED INBOX or SENT .... I dont mind how its tagged .

So in conclusion I am not a computer wizard if a fix is known for this I kindly ask. Please provide step by step instruction in your answer .

Or do I wait till next Thunderbird software update for a solution ?

I have Firefox and Thunderbird on a Win7 notebook, both started crashing unexpectedly. Never could get Firefox back up and running, so tried to uninstall and reinstall; uninstall worked but now can't download to install it on the Win7 notebook.

Thunderbird is more erratic; a tech friend went in and got it running, but it has crashed twice since then. The first time, after a couple of days checking it, it just started working again. This time it crashed soon after completing a Norton live update that had a product patch. I get the crash report screen but then it fails to submit the crash report; this is the crash report from today:

How to keep the hyperlinks when I respond or tranfer a mail

Hi, I like to attach hyperlink to the words I write in my mails (for exemple : "you can find here the document, and I attach to the word "here" a link, an URL). But when I respond to such a mail, or when I transfer one of mine, the links are not viewable. Strange thing is that when I respond to such a mail, the person reading my response can see and click on the link, but when I'm writing, I don't see the link. The word (let's say "here") is underlined, but I can't see or access or modify the link (for example to make sure that the link is correct). The information is sent, but I don't see it at the moment when I'm writing my response. Why... ? Thank you in advance
