Hello! Seriously considering Thunderbird after the recent refresh and am super delighted to see your collective contributions. A big thanks at the outset! I handle about 100 emails a day (both in and outbound) and have to keep going to the sent box towards the close of the day to delete all emails which i had to respond to but have no future use for. Could you introduce a feature in Thunderbird where the user is asked whether he/she wishes to save the email just after sending it? A "yes" retains the email in the sent box while a "no" does not. That way, i dont have to go to my sent box and go through numerous emails at the end of the day to keep my mailboxes clean.

Secondly, could you introduce the ability to compose signatures within the application itself please?

Just wanted to leave these two thoughts here. Wishing you the best for many more iterations of a truly wonderful outlook alternative!

Hi,

I would like to integrate the user's address book (or more specifically the contact details of the current user) into my own (c++) desktop (Windows/MacOS/Linux) application for the user's convenience.

Is this possible at all? If so, where can I start reading to find out how to do this?

(If it's not possible through an API, is the address book file format documented somewhere, so I can read it directly?)

I don't need write access. I just need to be able to read the user's contacts.

Cheers, James

I'm running Thunderbird 115.10.1 on Microsoft Windows 10.

I do most of my work in a unified inbox that has three accounts -- 2 POP, 1 IMAP. I added the IMAP account more than a year ago, at least as far back as 102.15.0, and it has never worked right in the unified inbox.

If I open the account inbox directly, I can delete a message (although I don't understand the way the UI works for this account): I press the "delete" button, the header in the message list gets a strikethrough line, and some time later the message vanishes from the inbox.

If I open the unified inbox and delete a message from either of the POP accounts, it vanishes immediately. If I delete a message from the IMAP account, nothing happens in the UI for the unified inbox -- but if I look at another tab where I have the IMAP account inbox open, I see the strikethrough line. Eventually the message vanishes from the IMAP account inbox, and when I look back at the unified inbox, I can see that it has vanished there, too.

Is this as simple as failing to render the strikethrough in the unified inbox, or is there something worse happening here?

When I opened Thunderbird to get and read my new email I received this error message after I could see that Thunderbird had found new messages.

"Unable to write the email to the mailbox. Make sure the file system allows you write privileges, and you have enough disk space to copy the mailbox."

I checked the hard drive space on all of my hard drives and I have GBytes of space and in PREFERENCES for the hard drive, WRITE is allowed. In fact all items listed in Preferences is set to allow.

I've rebooted the computer and even had Windows check my hard drive for errors and it found no problems. What do I now need to do? Thank you. Fred Berney

I have seen many questions a bit like mine but they all refer to downloading emails. Mine is different: "The folder 'Trash on my@email.com' could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space, and that you have write privileges to the file system, then try again." It now happens on two different email addresses (one is POP one is IMAP). Trash seems otherwise to work and can be deleted. But still this alarm. MAS OS 15.1.1 (24B91) - latest Thunderbird 128.5.2esr (64-bit)

I successfully set up an icloud email account in Thunderbird on a laptop but cannot get it set up on a desktop. I am attempting to use the previously generated app-specific password. I think I remember that on the laptop I could not key the password, but had to copy and paste. If I generate another app-specific password, will it invalidate the password presently working on the laptop? Or am I missing something else?
