With the moving of Cox emails to Yahoo would it be feasible for Thunderbird to put an instruction list(with screenshots) of how to get all our TB email accounts from Cox to TB? Do we have to delete all our TB email accounts and re-enter them into TB under the new Yahoo or can we just change the server settings on the existing Cox settings? If just changing server settings what are the settings for the new yahoo? All my accounts are IMAP so if instructions could be made, maybe one for IMAP and one for POP for those who use either. Thank you

When opening an email with previous email responses on it a seperate tab automatically opens for each previous email on that email. Before the update a few months ago only one tab would open when opening a new message and I want that system to continue. I cannot see how to do that.

I also prefer the previous option of unread emails in bold (showing on Inbox) rather than now underlined. Can I change that too?

Thank you

I just sent an email and had to go back to it to check something (which I do a lot) and it does not show on my sent list. I can find it doing a search for it and I see it (and 3 others) under search and it says it is in sent file, but actually none of the 4 emails on this search now can be found in the sent folder. And they all did (but the one from tonight) 2 days ago.

I now wonder if other emails have been lost, and can be accessed only by doing a search. But I need to have the emails in the serch folder as I go back to many of them a lot and all the time. Now I will not be able to find them unless I can remember who i sent it to. And I wonder how many more of them are lost and I just have no idea.

Any ideas? Has there been an update in the last week??

What can I do to get these emails (and maybe many others) back?

And I just copied this message to save and put it in an email to myself and sent it and it is not there.

In Aug 2023, I posted the thread, "Account Inactivity." Basically, I was advised that T-bird is a 3rd party app and by using T-bird to pop my email from gmail, that keeps my gmail account active. I now must question that.

Back in December '23, I went to log into gmail in my browser to check the spam folder for an email I had been waiting on. I could not log in. I got caught in that "inactive account" loop from hell. Took me about two months before I could finally get logged in in a browser. At the time, I figured I had just been unlucky enough to have been caught up in the "inactive account" thing by accident.

Now, today, I went to log in to another gmail account in my browser to change my password after a spam email with an attachment was popped to T-bird. And I could not get logged in. I jumped thru all of Googles firey little hoops. I played their "I am not a Bot" game, and entered the code I had them send to my recovery email account. THIS particular email address is NOT used for anything but LEGITIMATE dealings - bank, credit cards, bills, credible merchants. No jokes, no funny pix, no love letters, no nonsense. I dunno where this spam email came from. I apparently have not been pwned (yet). But I want to be safe. I want to change my password.

Anywhooooooooo.... it appears that simply popping my email to T-bird since T-bird is considered a 3rd party app that is allegedly one of the ways to keep my gmail account active... is NOT working. I'm not a real happy camper right now. I really wouldn't care since this doesn't seem to stop T-bird from being to get me my email. BUT...you HAVE to log in to webmail to change your password.

Perhaps using "Sign in with Google" literally means using those links you find scattered around, and popping email to T-bird is not included??

Once again, I came here hoping for help/answers/advice rather than giving myself a stroke dealing with illogical, no-help, online nonsense at Google.

Thanks

Thunderbird Calendar event notification crashes Thunderbird

I'm having this same issue on Ubuntu 22.04 and Fedora 39. Similar to archived post Thunderbord Calendar event notification failure to dismiss Calendar notification box doesn't respond to any clicks to close, dismiss, or snooze. This notification comes up about 5 seconds after opening Thunderbird. Clicking the modal opens crash dialog "Application "thunderbird" is not responding You tried to close window "1 Reminder" from application "thunderbird" (Process ID: 72811) but the application is not responding. Do you want to terminate this application? Warning: Terminating the application will close all of its child windows. Any unsaved data will be lost."

The archived post above suggests "disable or remove the add-on, then add the calendar from File/New/Calendar...On the Network..."

1. I used this method when adding my calendar. No add-ins are involved. 2. I only have about 5 seconds between opening Thunderbird and the notification locking it up. Very limited options for any workarounds. 3. Notification has already been dismissed within Nextcloud Calendar but still comes up in Thunderbird. 4. This is a Nextcloud based caldav account.

-Made custom domain through cloudfare, lets call it 'solv@xdomain.com' , fully paid for and working -Registered it through iCloud mail on my iPhone and mangaed to get it working - Decide I would like Thunderbird client as main client so download - I follow steps of generating app-specific password for thunderbird, after entering my name and email 'solv@xdomain.com' correctly. Then I generated password through iCloud for non apple app, pasted it in and tried to log in - Server error, something wrong with password etc.

I have double checked everything and even re-installed thunderbird but it still comes with a server error. What can I do to use my own email address with thunderbird? Thanks solv

I really am getting fed-up with Thunderbird which is getting increasingly user unfriendly and more and more geekified, e.g. the enforced belief on users that every user wants threading. To add to the gneral irritation, half a dozen emails have suddenly vanished from the folder they had been moved to.

Here's what happened.

1. The emails were moved from the iinbox to the folder.

2. They were unthreaded.

3. They then disappeared.

A search has not found them and opening and checking all folders has not found them.

So, two questions:

1, Where are they?

2. How do I get them back?

I am unable to drag and drop messages from Inbox into a number of subfolders in a created folder. Other subfolders in this folder do not have this problem. When I attempt the drag and drop, a circle with slash image appears.

When I attempt to move messages to these problem subfolders using 'right click' and 'move to', the problem subfolders do not appear in the drop down list. Same happens if I use 'message' and 'move to'.

Probably related to this, the font of the problem subfolders recently changed to italic.

I can access the existing messages in the problem subfolders.

I have tried 'repair' on these subfolders, with no change.

I am using Windows 11, Thunderbird 115.9.0.
