Using multiple profiles. Checked work offline. Thunderbird opens to a page asking me to "Setup Your Existing Email Account" when I'm attempting to open an old email account.

The server settings have changed since this profile was used. Thunderbird is giving this error message: Unable to login at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password.

Why is Thunderbird asking me to do this and trying to connect to the server when I requested to work offline?

Hello I'm currently in need of configuring all of the clients with the Root CA certificate needed to use our new proxy server. I've seen that Thunderbird uses its own certificate repository, but there is yet a configuration option for reading Windows machine's own store, called security.enterprise_roots.enabled . This could be the best option since my users work on shared windows terminal servers. Is there a way to deploy this setting to all users? (I haven't found a GPO template for Thunderbird with this setting) I think I could create a logon script to copy a default user.js to every profile folder, but I don't know where the system could read the profiles path (multiple for most of the users).

thanks

I have a Windows 7 that has all my email accounts which still works fine.... the new Windows 11 machine has the same settings and worked for 2 months until 2 days after latest update - when incoming on all accounts stopped and sending apparently sends but hangs saying unable to copy to sent folder owing to network or other issues. My original 11yearold Dell still works fine on all accounts but it should be pensioned off by now!? Any clues about whether to go back to an earlier version or is there something else I am missing? There are many irritating issues with Thunderbird but unfortunately I am not aware of a anything better - having tried most of them in 30 years!

spent a long time typing a complex mail, and due to the way the new version (115.5.0) does things, the outgoing address had a . on the end of it that wasn't visible, because it was obscured by a note that the send address wasn't in the address book, For years, I've had used BCC to get a copy back into my inbox, but now, with this latest version, if the send fails, it also doesn't forward the copy, so a mail that took over an hour to create is now lost due to the failure of the system, before now, a fail due to invalid address returned the item, so at least the body of the mail wasn't lost.

NOT impressed, this means I now have to change my system in order to not lose items by using the BCC option, it meant I knew that the server had processed the mail, now, I've no way to be sure it has truly been sent.

Running 115.5.0 and want to export my contact list to be able to use it in a spreadsheet. The export function in the Tools dropdown only allows for export of "accounts, messages, address books and settings to a ZIP file." What happened to the ability to export just the address book separately to a csv file? Please help. Thank you.

I have recently switched to Thunderbird from Outlook and have found that some types of email are not visible in my Thunderbird inbox. I can see them in my email provider's webmail and they worked fine in Outlook but they aren't appearing in Thunderbird. I have tried adding the sender's email to my address book and telling Thunderbird not to block messages if the sender is in my address book but that hasn't helped. The two types that I have noticed are: i) messages from a groups.io mailing list that I'm a member of and ii) the daily digest from Nextdoor (a local social media website). However, if I search for the subject or sender then the email can be found by the search in Thunderbird so it seems to be there but just not visible. I have set up a global inbox and have various sub-folders of my inbox which I use rules to divert emails to. Any suggestions gratefully received.
