Thunderbird Community Forum

Today is the first day using your latest update of Thunderbird (128.2.3esr (64-bit)) and I have been experiencing problems. In certain conditions when I am either editing a new email or receiving email, an email in my Drafts folder is Sent without my clicking SEND. No record of the sending exists in the SENT folder but the intended recipient has received it. In a second problem, the Correspondent in a mailbox has been edited to that ALL the email in the mailbox shows that Correspondent being the sender. I claim you have bugs in this release.

TBird 60.3.1 (32-bit)

I really preferred the old, coloured icons. With the latest black and white set of icons, I find it very hard to distinguish one from the other. Is there a way to restore the previous set of icons?

Why would your developers possibly think that black and white is better than colour? I don't get it. We've spent decades perfecting and improving computing and software, and suddenly everybody thinks we should throw it all into the bin and have bland looking interfaces.

And if you are going to suggest a Theme, don't bother - I spent about half an hour, and couldn't find one that altered the icons.

I have moved to Windows 8.1 and have all my contacts in the "People" file. I would like to share or import the contacts in the People file into my Thunderbird contacts file but currently am failing to find how. Can anyone help please?

I have been using Thunderbird Portable on a laptop for many years. I not longer need the portable feature and I understand that it is slower than the regular Thunderbird. How can I switch to Thunderbird? And I need the method most suitable for 80-year-olds who aren't that computer savvy, please.

Installed Tbird Installed Import/Export Add-On Went to Tools > Import/Export and all Import items are grayed out. Also could not create a new file: File > New > Folder. Nothing under "All Folders"

Maybe that is why I can't import? Thanks for any help, John Windows 7 Desktop Currently using: Windows Live Mail 2012

Following re-installation of Windows 10 and reinstalling Thunderbird I find that my extensive address book is gone both on my desktop computer and laptop. How can I get it back?

Direct after the update to 132.0 (linux,64-bit) thunderbird stopped downloading the body of my emails, only the message headers are downloaded. This appears on all accounts, (POP and IMAP). Another email client workes and everything there is fine so i am shure there is no failure at serverside. I tried also to delete all files on all servers (bad message problem) and reorganize "global-messages-db.sqlite". but all this does not solve the problem. Unfortunately it is not possible to move back to my old working installation and profile ( why dont you offer this?, would be nice in this situation ...)

Since updating Thunderbird on Friday, the application crashes right after opening, even in safe mode. This happens repeatedly, after several reboots and restarting application in normal and safe mode.

OS: Windows 10 App version: latest unknown.

Please assist. Details below.

I just erased all my profile files, trashed the Application that was in my machine and installed a new one from scratch. It worked for a few hours but crashed again. Opening in Safe Mode gives the same result.

I have Thunderbird v. 102.15.1 installed. I do not want to update to v. 115.16.2. I have set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Thunderbird\DisableAppUpdate = 1. This worked for several months. However yesterday when I turned my computer on, I found that Thunderbird had updated to v. 115.16.2. After a great deal of fruitless attempts to downdate it again, I finally restored all of my C: drive from a backup I'd fortunately made just the day before. That worked and brought back v. 102.

However when I turned my computer on this morning, I found that once again Thunderbird had updated to v. 115. When I go to Menu > Help > About Thunderbird, it shows a window saying "Updates disabled by your system administrator". Yet "disabled" or not, Thunderbird updates itself! (I don't know what "system administrator" means - it's my computer and I'm the "administrator".)

How can I keep Thunderbird from updating without my permission?

I use google search engine. Google is blocking my email account and wants personal identifying info to unblock. One solution recommended is to have my mail data transferred elsewhere. I want to use Thunderbird for my mail. On Thunderbird's download page for Windows 7, an error 404 comes up. Where is the download page? Thanks.

Trying to install TB from download. I get the following error message: Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://login.xfinity.com/login" on this server.

But, when I login to xfinity through my browser, I can access the mail just fine. What should I do? Thanks for your help. Jerry

I have a Mircosoft live.com email account, using Thunderbird 128.2.3esr as my email app on a home computer running Win10. Got emails from MS about updating to OAuth2 authentification. After changing to Oauth2 in Server Setting Oauth2 would not show up in SMTP server (could receive but not send mail). Following MS instructions I deleted my account and added it back (apparently a big mistake). After a lot of hassle I now have Oauth2 set up on both Server and SMTP & can receive & send email, but I can not see my folders, only the default Inbox, Sent, Trash and Local Folders - Trash & Outbox. View/Folders has "All Folders" checked (& it is grayed out). I had dozens of folders with probably thousands of emails. If I go into my TB profile I can drill down and see the names of folders that were added in the last couple of months, so I think the folders are still in my profile where they should be. Any ideas on how to see my folders?

This latest version of Thunderbird has all sorts of bugs. I can't open or view email, can't save drafts & send messages (get errors: failed to save drafts & send message). I constantly reinstall the app: works fine at 1st; but then the same bugs keep resurfacing. Is there a way to go back to the earlier release version? Thunderbird was working fine before this latest version was installed.

I am trying to import a .csv file saved from a spreadsheet as a new address book. It has only 3 fiels, Name Number and email address. It all works up to the point where I click on Finish. The resultant file does not contain the data which shows correctly when I step through the import process. It seems to collect whatever is in front of the @ symbol in the email field and put it into the Name field and nothing appears in the Number field, although the email field appears to transfer correctly.

Lots of stuff on internals and "profiles", not so much on basics! This data needs to be in my default data backup partition. Where is the (presumably simple) option to change this in TBird?

Hallo, ich habe einen neuen PC mit neu Win 11. Da habe ich Thunderbird neu installiert. Alle meine Mails sind bei Web.de gespeichert. Durch die neue Installation sind alle persönlich angelegten Ordner unter dem Ordner: "Lokale Ordner" verschwunden. Wo kann ich diese wiederfinden? Liebe Grüße Hans

Just starting out with Thunderbird - downloaded 60.5.0 onto Windows 7 Home Premium laptop. Trying to configure a new GMail account using the default setup. Information fills in, then attempts to check password. Message "configuration could not be verified" then appears. Account email address and password work OK on GMail web version. Not sure what to check next.

Yesterday Thunderbird upgraded itself to a version which will no longer run Lightning. For me, this is a crisis as I need access to my calendar. Please don't suggest I get a working copy of Lightning and install it, as apparently no such thing exists.

How do I roll-back to the previous working version? I am running Ubuntu 16.04. I have no idea what the last working version of Thunderbird was but my current (broken) version is 60.2.1.

Thank you for any suggestions.

Hello,

So I have Thunderbird which came with my Mint 22 install. My issue is that I imported my contacts (cvs) from Outlook into my personal contact folder. However, when I try to compose an email it can't seem to find the person I'm looking to message. I set my personal folder as default but it still won't work. I love Thunderbird but if it's going to be a problem sending emails then it's useless to me. Can someone please help me with this.

Kind Regards,

Bruce

Keep on downloading Mozilla Thunderbird Release but it keep coming up as ESR. How can just have Release? My email account with Mozilla is [edited email from community support forum] @pc-q.net can you reply there.
