I have thunderbird and fastmail is the donor email app I am trying to delete all or most of this email in fastmail using thunderbird and saving or archiving this mail to a separate volume I am using a M4 mac mini.

I wish to add email identity deborahstpeter1@gmail.com to my account keweston82@gmail.com. Deborah is in a nursing home and as Power of Attorney I handle all her financial affairs on line. I had to replace my old computer which included Deborah's email in my Thunderbird email account but I've been unsuccessful getting her added to my new computer. I'm 83 years old and operating my old computer, which is where Mozilla's responses are going, and my new computer from which I'm communicating with Mozilla, plus two different mouses, I'm making a lot of mistakes i.e. click a computer scream with the wrong mouse. I wish to add Deb to my account with as little involvement on my part as possible. You can send a verification code to deborstpeter1@gmail.com and I will be sure to use the correct mouse.

When I add a calendar event, it defaults to Holidays in US. How do I change this to the calendar associated with my email address? I often forget to change the desired calendar. Also, How do I edit the Holidays calendar? Thanks BigSam

Please ask Thunderbird to stop making a tab on my taskbar every time I open an email. I have to close each one individually, and I never asked for these to be shown, and I don't need them shown. This is a tedious extra chore. I already have access to emails that I receive in my in box. It shows the history. I don't need any other index to them. Do you know how to stop making any other such tab or index? If not, please pass this on, and please don't say that you can't pass on this request. Someone decided to make these tabs show up on my screen and task bar, and to require me to close them by clicking on each little red X mark. I should be able to make contact with whoever makes these decisions and writes these programs, and to provide feedback and suggestions to them.

I can sign in with my google account, but when I come to the installation window with Pop3 and SMTP another password is requested. I don't know which, and there's no possibilty to get a new. Please help Jens

Hello,

Does anybody knows why or how this happened? Thunderbird has worked just fine since the May 1. My internet connection works well. Has anybody had this problem before?

Thanks

hello, i had a friend and his father needed urgently to migrate his thunderbird with 1 email to a new computer but he wasnt able to setup the emailaccount in a new german client. i helped and the problem was that the setup asks for the password but it meant the password from the emailprovider to allow thirdpartyapps access. please consider to improve the german setup wizard by adding a new textline to clearify. best regards

E-Mail messages are in Xfinity, but do not come to Mozilla Thunderbird. Not having access to Mozilla email, prevents messages to be sent from Xfinity. I also cannot send messages from web sites. brucelowrey@comcast.net

I Googled Thunderbird and received this link: https://www.thunderbird.net/en-GB/thank-you/?form=support&utm_content=post_download&utm_source=thunderbird.net&utm_medium=fru&utm_campaign=donation_2023&downloaded=True&download_channel=esr It asks for a donation of varying amounts. I donated £15. I received an email thanking me for the donation Thunderbird <give@thunderbird.net> Whenever I click download I'm returned to the Donate page. Are these URL scams?

new computer. Downloaded thunderbird. Added old email accounts. I have 4. I cannot send emails out with primary account. I can get secondary emails to send out. SMtp is comcast.

I am looking for a way to disable the attachment preview pop-up for incoming emails. Almost all attachments I receive are PDFs and it doesn't work with them, only showing a black screen. Further, the popups cause my auto-hide taskbar to keep unhiding and getting in the way of my work.

The sent message is deleted but I get Filter action Failed.

I am trying to set up my t-online.de account on Thunderbird, so far without success. A message appears: Thunderbird failed to find the settings for your email account. I don't know where I am going wrong.

None of your "topics" addresses my issue at all. Where is your user manual? I'm trying to figure out how your "retention" works. Also how to get a message filter to run on a specific folder daily.

Thanks, Saroj Gilbert
