Thunderbird Support Forum

Have several folders and sub-folders for saving important emails in Thunderbird. One choice for saving subfolders. my master email address. I can save to this folder but cannot retrieve those emails. Attached is a screen shot. How do I retrieve emails from those folders???

I tried to move (copy) Proton mail emails to Google Gmail without success. I searched support for help but found no articles that worked. I started to use proton Mail but was unimpressed and need to move (copy) the Proton Mail emails to my Google Gmail. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Lou

Hi, I have upgraded my computer and Thunderbird, however only the INBOX folder is loading.

I have followed the instructions to migrate the folders from the 'Profile Folder' on the old computer, the data has transferred but is not organised as folders, as on the old computer and of course on the main server.

I don't mind if all the data is not on my computer so long as the Folders are there, empty or not but organised in as they are on the main server.

I'm wondering if I selected an incorrect setting while setting up the account within Thunderbird on the new computer.

Thank you and kind regards, Mark.

Thunderbird 115 included in 24.04 LTS installation.

My profiles are located on the SD card working well on other two laptops running ubuntu 22.04. Swap SD cards between two laptops is my way of working with Thunderbird since 13.04.

After installation 24.04 LTS (and Thunderbird 115 included). Following the instruction for adding old profile to the new Thunderbird. Help->thunderbird information->about:profiles. Creating new profile. 1) Using the function CHOOSE FOLDER indicated the path to the profile /media/VB/AB49-E208/Thunderbird profile 2) The path to the folder shown by Thunderbird is different (and strange): /run/user/1000/doc/58235/Thunderbird

When looking into the directory tree the folder is empty (obviously). Thunderbird therefore cannot reach the profile located on SD card and doesn't work.

QUESTION: Is there any way to overwrite the profile folder path in Thunderbird 115 ?

Thunderbird seems to be hung up in a circular reference. It continues to download 1 of 2 and 2 of 2 repetitively, nonstop. This is continues process without ceasing. It seems be slowing do the whole system.

Hello,

I have a strange issue that i didnt find a solution for online. I have made a few new folder and message filters for them. I dont get number notification in taskbar for mails that go in the new folder while the notifications for mails that go in the inbox work just fine.

Hi, for some time now (around a month), after a couple of days using Thunderbird, I can not load new messages, can not send new messages, and it basically is nonfunctional. The blue bar down right shows an active process that never ends (for example, "sending message"). All menus and software as a whole are still operating, and there is no crash on hang, but every attempt to load my emails or send data ends with endless waiting (no errors whatsoever). When I try to exit the application, it closes down, but a process is listed in Task Manager. When I kill the process manually and try to start the software again, nothing starts (a new process appears in the task manager), but the software never opens a window or something. Only a full computer restart helps, and everything works again for 1-2 days. I have disabled all extensions and tried even troubleshoot mode. No crash reports...

Hello

I have a bizarre issue with attachments.

I open all attachments in their respective programs rather than preview within Thunderbird itself (I have also tried opening in preview but I get exactly the same problem).

When I receive an email with attachments, mainly Word, Excel or PDF docs, I click to open the attachment but nothing happens. If I save the attachments to my computer and try to open it says the attachment is empty or corrupt.

But, if I click to forward the email, I can then open the attachments as normal by clicking on them in the draft email and also then save them to the computer and they open as normal.

I am running the latest version - 115.10.1 (64-bit) and I have noticed this issue for about the last week or so. Otherwise everything seems to work as normal.

Any ideas on what is going on or ways to change this.

Thanks in advance

Hi, I am on a HP laptop using T-Bird 115.11.0 (32-bit). I am trying to add a new contact to the address book. There is a problem or I am doing something wrong.

The right side of the screen offers me to enter details of the New Contact. However, it only allows room for 1st name, 2nd name and Display Name. Once entered I cannot scroll the screen to enter more details or to save what has been entered or anything - except to close address book or cancel which button only partially appears. By clicking around the white parts of the screen I can get Nickname to appear (see screen dump) and I fill it in and then nothing. I am effectively stuck. Looks like there is some window sizing problem here which is preventing the user from seeing how to proceed with completing this form.

Whenever i use quick filter to look for email. Thunderbird would tank and massively slow down. Is this common problem or is it just me. Sometimes the performance hit also bleed outside the app and slow the entire system.

For the past three months I have not received any e mails on my i phone from Thunderbird. I get them on my computer but not on my i phone. My provider is Shaw and I have been in touch with them but they said to contact you. I don't understand why I suddenly quit getting the e mails on my phone. I need to receive them as I need access to e mails on my phone soon, as I am out of town and have no computer where I spend the summer.

I seem to have lost the search bar that allowed me to find certain emails in specific folders. I am now left with the one that searches all my email folders. Why? How do I get it back?

Messages I sent from my iphone are showing up in my inbox marked with a gold star and looking like they came from the recipient, but they werent. Almost like a reminder of an email I sent? - I mistake them for new incoming messages. Why is this happening and how do I make it stop???

See the first two messages in the screen shot.

Hello all

as per subject is there a way to reply directly in the preview window like outlook and not in a new window? I tried to search in options but I can't see if there is a way. The pop up new window is a little annoying.

Thank you :)
