Hi! I have attached snapshots of my account settings and the messages I get when the port is set to 25 (which is what the server said it should be) and when it is set to 587 . My server is 012 "Partner" in Israel. I can send emails through their web portal successfully. I called them for help but they said they don't have anyone there familiar with Thunderbird. :( I tried the steps in the article about what to do if you can't send emails, to no avail. Thank you for any help.

I upgraded to 68 yesterday and Thunderbird just blew up after a decade of virtually no issues:
1. Upon initial TB loading, won't get new emails, won't load Lightning, ignores all options and account settings
2. Immediately goes to a white page, shows "Not Responding"
3. Immediate goes back to my email, no calendar, no automatic download of email
4. Today's Pane is turned off, have to manually change it to see my calendar
5. Today's pane shows no schedule events
Rinse, Repeat.
What has happened?
Went back to 60.8, all is well.
This is unbelievable that so much core functionality on my desktop is broken.
TB would not update new version, did reinstall, now all my old stuff is gone, help!

The new installed version is so bare I can't even find Help to find the current version. It's either 68.5 or 60.5, but .5. TB said it couldn't update and would have to be d/l and reinstalled, which I did. Now all my old mail, all my add-ons and all my carefully constructed organization is gone. There has to be a way to get that back, isn't there? Please help. Right now I'm probably going to have Windows go back to before this TB reinstall, waiting for a callback from my tech person.

Can emails in a profile back-up be restored or copied to a different acct?

I had two accounts both POP, one is an account with my ISP and the other is my company acct. name@ mywork.com This work acct. I changed the account type from POP to IMAP, I backed up my profile first. The account was changed over and it is using the same email address. After it was done I copied and pasted the contents of the profile backup into the active profile folder, the profile restore worked ok but the emails in the old POP acct. did not restore to the new IMAP acct. with the same name. Is there a way of copying the emails from the profile back-up to the new IMAP acct or put them in the other POP acct. of a different name?
Change exchange email account to store messages in global inbox

I did a complete OS re-install of Windows 10. Programs and OS are on one drive, all my data files including email are on another. I did save my windows user data to a third hard drive, but I don't remember copying that back for Thunderbird because I wasn't sure I was going to re-install Thunderbird. Thunderbird doesn't save account data online somewhere does it?

I am on W 10, I have had a unified inbox for my 2 POP accounts, I recently switched one account to an IMAP account which still uses the old email address. Doing this messed with the unified account so I reset the account settings of the new IMAP account to be separate from the POP acct. but when I went to do the same withe POP account, the section Copies and Folders lists only the new IMAP acct. and Local Folders no mention of the separate POP acct. How do I return this account's controls back to the original acct. name and eliminate the unified acct. "Local Folders"? Thanks Chris
Can't see my emails because the host email password from my old work has been changed? Can I still access my old emails? Are they saved locally?

My old employer gave me pernission to copy my email across to Thunderbird so I would have it as a reference if I needed it after leaving. I did this months ago and it worked fine but now I expect they have updated the password to the main gmail account and I can no longer see any emails at all. Can I use the profile to retrieve them and move them into a new account?
I have attached a couple of screen grabs that might give you more info.
1. The error message which makes me think they have changed the password. 2. The path to my profile. 3. My setting for copies and folders.

OS: Windows 10 TB Ver: 68.5.0 (32 bit)
I was facing issue of shows some other Conversation when I choose "Open Message in Conversation". So on googling, it was suggested to reindex by delete .msf files and restart firefox.
After doing same, my original issue does not resolve but trapped in new issue of "Open Message in Conversation" not shown on right click menu. New messages received after reindex showing "Open Message in Conversation" properly, hence issue with messages before reindexing.
I am using default theme, and no any addons. I tried with safe mode but issue remain same.
any help appreciated.

Hi I have two email accounts. When I switch to unified folders view, all folders appears as expanded. If I manually collapse them all, next time I start TB, they are all expanded again, and I have to manually collapse them. I have a lot of folders, so this is quite painful. Is this a bug or a feature? I'm running TB 68.4.1 on Linux Mint Thanks a lot

On the left hand side of the Firefox page my computer used to show menu items "Inbox", "Drafts", "Sent" and "Deleted", with Local Folders showing "Deleted" and "Outbox", although nothing was in these last two items. Now, only "Inbox" appears and I cannot access my sent messages.
I deleted my inbox.msf file and now most of my emails are gone.
The size of the inbox seems to have decreased as well. I then did a repair and it didn't recover. HELP!

After reinstalling Windows8 and Thunderbird I attempted to download an extension but got this message: Error connecting services.addons.thunderbird.net (I use Russian interface so I can’t say exactly what this message is in English). Error code^ ssl_error_no_cypher_overlap. Please contact the site owners and inform them about this problem. Nothing I tried helped so far. Safe mode boot didn’t help. Setting option security.tls.insecure_fallback_hosts didn’t help. I would appreciate any advice. Best regards, Vladimir Sokolov

Hi. I use Thunderbird on my PC and am happy with it, but today, when trying to install it on my laptop, I suddenly got IMAP authentication error on my google account on both machines. Yesterday I turned on 2 step authentication on my google account and also let Thunderbird access my google account. Dont know if that was the cause. After much research I turned off 2 step authentication om Google account, made a stronger password, Turned on less secure apps in google, and chose regular password in Thunderbird. Then I got Thunderbird to work again. I know thunderbird support OAuth, but it didnt help / work. So now I am running an unsecure solution. I just want you to know. Why not post a solution to this in a way that I can find it? The help site and forums dont work !!! Its full of unqualified info/ comments, and I dont have time to read it all. I donated to Mozilla yesterday, so I really have faith in your products. Thanks. Eivind Evje / Norway

My old system is Windows 10 Home 64bit latest 1909. And my new System is Linux Debian Buster 64bit with GUI xfc4. I copied my Profiles folder from my Windows PC, into the Linux PC folder .thunderbird. As discribed nicely in this Support Forum: I followed the helpfull instructions from "https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1277613". Thunderbird is in version 68.5.0 on both systems. My problem is that during Startup of Thunderbird I can see all my old Email accounts and archives, but I am never been asked to enter my Master-Password. I am abel to type in all my mail accout password for IMAP and SMTP, but I can not save them. If I try to set a Master-Password the a Message-Box pops up, saying the Master-Password can not be changed.
- Summary of my problem is: After migration from Windows to Linux, all mail accounts work nicely but I can not save all my mail accout passwords, neither can I set an Master-Password.
Dear Forum, any solution ?
