I'm on tb 128 and use roadrunner. I see my emails on spectrum server but can't download them? I was using pop, they said imap is needed.

   Username: Your full Spectrum email address

   Password: Your Spectrum email password

   SSL: On

   Protocol: IMAP

   Incoming Server Port: 993

   Outgoing Server Port: 587

   Requires Authentication: Yes, or checked

I recently went back from Thunderbird daily to the release channel when I set up my new PC.

1. On opening an email - The Subject display in Daily Version is Bold and according to the font as set in Thunderbird Settings. Just Perfect. It is not the same in the Release Channel. Looks not so nice.

2. In Release Channel -- under settings If I choose to display the "Name Only" under Message List for address display format. It ignores

3. Release channel is ver 146.0.1 .. If I go back to Thunderbird daily .. will I be able to use the same profile used for the Release channel?

With my thanks in advance

In "Account Settings > Outgoing SMTP Servers" I expected to have the ability to fully specify authentication options for each server. Conversely, I have discovered that I can only set the authentication method to "Normal Password" but I can't set the actual password.

Even though I'm using multiple outgoing SMTP servers, in "Preferences > Security > Passwords" I can only see one IMAP server and one SMTP server.

How can I set the password for the other SMTP servers?

When I try to install the Thunderbird Dutch language pack as an Add-On , then I got the message that the language pack is corrupt. It's not possible to download this add-on.

I keep getting the following message:

The POP3 mail server (inbound.att.net) does not support UIDL or XTND XLST, which are required to implement the ``Leave on Server, ``Maximum Message Size or ``Fetch Headers Only options. To download your mail, turn off these options in the Server Settings for your mail server in the Account Settings window.

What can I do?

Currently when I tag a message the font color of the message changes. It would be nice if I could change the background color for tagged messages too, to make them stand out more.

Using Tbird 78.14.0 (64 bit) with Windows 10. I can no longer access the Page Setup screen properly. I suspect it's because I accidentally put a very big value in for the top margin. The print preview for even a short email says it's many pages, there's no text visible on any of those pages, the only part of the Page Setup screen visible is OK and Cancel at the bottom, and I can't get to the top of the screen. I've tried closing and re-opening Tbird to no avail. How can I get to the top of the Page Setup screen to fix the problem?

Hi: I had the newest Update of Thunderbird Ver 52.7.0 installed in my PC running Windows 7 - Home Premium and was shocked that during this Update installation my foreign language Dictionary (Czech) installed in Thunderbird before this automatic-updating has disappeared. This is a very serious Software flaw because I was using this Dictionary for many years, and during several years I've added many unique foreign language words & terms and it is therefore very important for my correspondence with people abroad. My critical questions are:

1) does Thunderbird keeps a back up-copy of such an important part of this Software somewhere in the Thunderbird installation Directory so that I could recover/re-install it? 2) What are the specific step-by-step guidelines to install any additional Dictionary into Thunderbird? I've spent MANY HOURS trying to install a new copy of the Czech Language Add-On following the suggested procedure but it does NOT work - have anyone from the Programmers checked if this installation procedure actually works? An earlier advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

After the last update, Thunderbird no longer requires a password be entered to sign into my emails. Hence all my emails are available to whoever opens Thunderbird. How do I get the Profile Password feature back again? This has nothing to do with the Master Password.

My Thunderbird version 52.9.1. First language = French Cannot upload DUTCH language package (as second language) because last version of complementary module appears to be corrupted. BA Brussels - Belgium 19-07-2018

email remover was apparently removed in program updates. Downloaded new June 2018 tool, but it's a big mystery on where to look for it on T-Bird dashboard, and what to do with it once located. When I open the downloaded file, T-Bird creates an email!

Cannot invoke duplicate email removal tool. Totally lacking follow-through. BD

Thunderbird seems to be saving partial emails if I have not sent them with in 5 minutes of starting the email. This email is saved in BIN but is highlighted as not read. I took half hour to write one meail and now hav multiple copies saved of this email! How can I turn this function off?

Thunderbird recently updated to 60.0 and now I cannot install themes. None of the help threads I have found work. I must be missing something. Everything I try keeps adding themes to Firefox instead of Thunderbird.

Why do I have to do this every time?

Is there a setting I can adjust? Or is this just how it is with Gmail?

I can't seem to find the configuration option in Thunderbird to have the following information added on top of the emails I reply to:

From: <original sender>

Sent: <date-time>

To: <list of original recipients>

Cc: <list of originally copied recipients> (if applicable)

Subject: <original email-subject>

Priority: <priority of the original message> (if applicable)

Sensitivity: <sensitivity of the original message, i.e., Private, Confidential, etc.> (if applicable)

This information appears on the email I forward, but on my replies I always get is a line that reads: "On <date-time>, <sender> wrote:"

Can someone help me with this?

Thank you!

I followed the instructions in support.Mozilla to access the Thunderbird Profile Manager in Windows 7. But, I can't access the Thunderbird Profile Manager. I tried various ways to search for thunderbird.exe -P but Windows 7 won't cough up the Thunderbird Profile Manager - it just starts the Thunderbird program. Any suggestions?

I have to keep hard copies of e mails. The problem is that as a trhead gets added to it means the print outs get longer and longer and are of course repatative Is there a setting that allows me to only print the most recent mail in a thread?

Witam, po ostatniej aktualizacji przy odpisywaniu lub tworzeniu nowej wiadomości formatowanie automatycznie ustawia się jako AKAPIT, zamiast TREŚĆ. Przed aktualizacją tak nie było. Problem występuje u mnie i moich koleżanek, więc nie jest to kwestia przestawienie przeze mnie czegokolwiek.

Dear Thunderbird support team,

I wanted to set up a filter sending a copy of e-mails from a particular sender to another e-mail address (within the same company) but I did not find such an option. There is only a possibility of forwarding the e-mail to another address.

Would it be possible to add it in the next release please?

Thank you.

Wishing you the best of luck,

Dear Thunderbird Developers,

I am writing to express my frustration regarding the recent UI changes. After the latest update, the standard toolbar icons (Get Messages, Write, Address Book, reply, etc.) completely disappeared for me, leaving behind nothing but a search bar. Even using the "Restore Default Set" option fails to bring the essential navigation buttons back. While I can eventually fix these issues as a power user, these constant, breaking UI changes are a major problem for average users. For instance, my 65-year-old mother relies on a stable interface. Every time a rollout breaks the visual layout or hides basic functions, she is unable to use her email until I step in to fix what the update messed up.

Forcing users to manually rebuild their primary navigation toolbar after an update is not a "feature"—it’s a regression that alienates long-time especially elderly users who need reliability over constant redesigns. Please prioritize UI stability and ensure that "Reset to Default" actually restores a functional set of icons.

If you need further information I'll be glad to hear and hope you can give me an easy fix for this problem.
