Thunderbird Support Forum

My Vision is getting worse and I can't read small print any more. I need detailed instructions that someone who can see the fine print can use to help me make the font bigger. I just wish it was as easy as it was in my browser..

Thanks.

Don't like the look of the new Thunderbird. Just too much of everything. It's just for sending and receiving emails. Now it is messing up, which it never did before after 10 or more years. Emails that I have moved to folders keep coming back to my inbox when I reopen the program. So before I get told that the settings in my pop account are wrong and I need to change this or that, like I've seen other people told. NO.....! It worked fine until some meat head wrote new code for this new 115.whatever version, and thought that a new fancy task bar was more important then getting mail. And this goof ball needs to fix it................Thank You Very Much, Craig P.S. Yes I give $ to Mozilla.

Subject: [Thunderbird email client] Composing email: Clicking Options > Delivery Status Notification Does Not Work At All!!!

Good day from Singapore,

Today is 13 November 2023 Monday Singapore Time 7 PM.

Recently I have installed Thunderbird email client version 115.4.1 (64-bit) SUPERNOVA in Windows 11 Home version 22H2 in my home desktop computer.

I have numerous Gmail email account(s). I do not know whether GMAIL is using Postfix or EXIM Mail Transfer Agent (MTA).

I have composed and SENT emails with the Subject: "Singaporean man who previously attempted to contest in the 2023 Singapore Presidential Elections has applied for refugee status/political asylum in the UK on 23 Oct 2023" to the following international news media outlets, mainly British, American and Hong Kong:

[01] BBC News (UK)

[02] The Guardian (UK)

[03] The Observer (UK)

[04] The Daily Telegraph (UK)

[05] The Sunday Telegraph (UK)

[06] The Washington Post (USA)

[07] The New York Times (USA)

[08] CNN (USA)

[09] Yahoo News

[10] Wired.com (USA)

[11] Vice.com (USA)

[12] Mothership (Singapore)

[13] Must Share News (Singapore)

[14] The Independent (Singapore)

[15] Goodyfeed (Singapore)

[16] Sky News (UK)

[17] The Times (UK)

[18] The Independent (UK)

[19] Channel 4 News (UK)

[20] Daily Mail (UK)

[21] The Sun (UK)

[22] The Mirror (UK)

[23] South China Morning Post (Hong Kong)

[24] Financial Times (UK)

[25] Reuters (UK) - I am going to send email soon, but it seems Reuters don't have email addresses, only contact submission forms on its official website

[26] Agence France-Press (France) - I am going to send email soon, but it seems AFP don't have email addresses, only contact submission forms on its official website

Before sending each email, I will click Options > Delivery Status Notification in Thunderbird email client. I will ENSURE this option is clicked, besides clicking Return Receipts.

However, I have NEVER received any Delivery Status Notification for the emails that I have sent. Not even once. Though I have received Return Receipts, but they are very FEW.

Questions:

[1] Is there a bug with Thunderbird email client?

---OR---

[2] Did the Singapore Government have unfettered access and absolute control of all my email accounts? Were my outgoing emails to the above international news media outlets intercepted and deleted by the Singapore Government before they reach their recipients? Hence the above-mentioned international news media outlets have NEVER received my emails???

Many years ago, I think it was during General Election 2011 in Singapore, I think it was Mr. Tan Jee Say, who told me that the Singapore Government has secret/covert access to all the email accounts of all Singaporeans.

Why is the Singapore Government so scared to let the whole world know that Singapore Citizen Mr. Teo En Ming has flown from Singapore to London (transit in Shanghai, China) on 22 Oct 2023 Sunday and claimed refugee status / political asylum in the United Kingdom on 23 Oct 2023?

After the British Government has fully paid for my free Singapore Airlines SQ321 flight (because I only have about/approximately SGD$2400 in my bank accounts on 23 Oct 2023) and sent me back to Singapore from London Heathrow Airport (I was transferred from London Gatwick Airport to London Heathrow Airport) on a 12-hour flight on 23 Oct 2023, I saw someone (not me) had created a forum thread/topic at Hardwarezone Singapore Eat-Drink-Man-Woman (EDMW) forums with the title, something like:

"BREAKING Teo En Ming has claimed refugee in the UK on 23 Oct 2023..."

However, after 5 pages of forum discussion (I think), the administrators or moderators of Hardwarezone Singapore forums had QUICKLY deleted the above forum thread/topic. Maybe due to pressure from the Singapore Government. Maybe due to pressure from the Singapore Government.

I didn't see the actual forum thread/topic itself. What I saw was the Google Cache of the deleted forum topic. But now the Google Cache is also gone, I think.

Why is the Singapore Government so scared to let the whole world know that Singapore Citizen Mr. Teo En Ming has flown from Singapore to London (transit in Shanghai, China) on 22 Oct 2023 Sunday and claimed refugee status / political asylum in the United Kingdom on 23 Oct 2023?

Or is it a bug with Thunderbird email client that I have never received any Delivery Status Notification for the emails that I have sent out to the above international news media outlets?

Or was there a problem with the GMAIL SMTP servers?? Problem with Postfix MTA? Problem with Exim MTA? Problem with Sendmail MTA?

Why is the Singapore Government so scared to let the whole world know that Singapore Citizen Mr. Teo En Ming has flown from Singapore to London (transit in Shanghai, China) on 22 Oct 2023 Sunday and claimed refugee status / political asylum in the United Kingdom on 23 Oct 2023?

Mr. Teo En Ming has previously applied for political asylum / refugee status at the [1] United Nations Refugee Agency UNHCR Bangkok (21-22 March 2017), [2] in Taiwan on 5 Aug 2019 and [3] in Australia (application by email through the Australian Embassy in Kuala Lumpur) on 10 March 2020. But they were never reported in the news anywhere at all.

There is widespread news coverage on Amos Yee, who had offended Singapore Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew 8 years ago in 2015. Mr. Teo En Ming had also offended Singapore Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew 16 years ago in 2007, many many years before Amos Yee did. So I don't understand why the Singapore Government is so scared to have widespread news coverage of Mr. Teo En Ming. Why can't the Singapore Government let millions and billions of people know Mr. Teo En Ming???????

Mr. Turritopsis Dohrnii Teo En Ming Targeted Individual in Singapore

When I navigate to the hamburger menu->View I see only Toolbars, Layout, and Folders - no Sort by option. I dislike the threaded view and would like to eliminate it. What should I do? (Version 115.4.2 64 bit)

I use 3 calendars:

• 666jjv this is my personal and Google calendar
• Holidays in France
• Holidays in Belgium;

Obviously, when I want to add an event, it is in the first one. For some reason, when I create an event, the clandar "holdays in France" is presented and I have not to forget to change it 666jjv.

Is there a way to have 666jjc as first and even unique choice?

I have used Thunderbird for a long time to get away from all the bells and whistles that bloat other programs and now threatens the same for thunderbird! All I want is to be able to receive, store, and print e-mails or critical parts of them. Thunderbird has now got to the point I can only see a part of the email at the bottom of the screen. If try to select a portion of it, it downloads or prints all of it with a complete page of useless data about the source! Fortunately I can use Fineprint to clean it up, but that shouldn't be necessary. I contribute occasionally since I value your efforts, but I am beginning too question continued use that isn't any better than all the others.

Question about Thunderbird 115.4.1 and Gmail. In the "All Mail" folder... I delete messages - but only to see them still there the next day. I tried empty trash as well as compact folder and expunge - but I clearly am doing something wrong. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong and help me?! I also tried both moving to trash folder in different directory as well as "delete immediately" in Account settings.

When I'm sending mails through gmail - they are sent as seen. When I'm sending mails through Thunderbird - it's changing them after I click send. If I want my line to be broken - I'll break it myself. I don't want my emails to be narrow as Italian streets. Especially not silently in background, and I get to know this when someone replies with quote or I check sent mails manually.

There are guides for previous thunderbird versions, but not for Supernova.

Bonjour, Je suis sur thunderbird béta par hasard (mauvais téléchargement, erreur de manipulation) et, je désire soit retourner sur thunderbird release ou que thunderbird béta soit en français car je ne maîtrise pas du tout ni l'anglais ni l'informatique. Pouvez vous résoudre mon problème. Merci. Cordialement. Gilles

I am using older Thunderbird 102.x due to newer version having an issue. The Search tab contains "Find Events" input area, where i can search all Events, but not Tasks. Which is weird and wrong IMO. I always assumed that it search everything in calendar. So how do i search also Tasks or how to convert all to events?

From the beginning i was not told the difference between the Events and Tasks, it is not enough intuitive for me to differentiate the two. https://superuser.com/questions/1321548/thunderbird-add-on-lightning-what-is-the-difference-between-event-and-task

I use Thunderbird for 4 Google email accounts and 1 Sasktel email account. All 5 accounts are IMAP. Sometime within the last few days, hundreds of sent emails have gone missing from one of the Google email accounts, and the single Sasktel email account.

I haven't made any changes.

My disk cleaner is set to leave Thunderbird alone.

Thunderbird updates automatically. Could the most recent update have somehow deleted my emails?

Is there any way to get those sent emails back on my laptop? I see that they still exist on the Sasktel and Gmail servers (if that's the right terminology)?

I just downloaded Thunderbird for the first time because I have several emails and want to manage them all in one place. The calendar is great and brought my google calendars right over, but my wife and I share our calendars with each other and hers isn't showing up on here, like it did on google. Is there a way to import her shared calendar into mine in Thunderbird?

I can't seem to delete an old account on Thunderbird. It says it's a "special account" with no identity associated with it. Can someone help? I tried uninstalling and re-installing Thunderbird and the old account still appears.

I'm trying to set up a new protonmail account, too, and Thunderbird says it doesn't recognize the (correct) password. Is the old account causing the problem?

‘having lost my password for Thunderbird, is there any way that I can create a new one? My Thunderbird has not retained my old password. Please help as I prefer Thunderbird to other systems.’

I have a folder, called "important" showing up in my list of folders and it annoys me that some emails it contains never made it to my Inbox. Why does this folder exist and how can I get rid of it?

'bold text'bold text i am on outlook and looking to move my contacts. what does your contact page look like? my outlook contact has general fields, detail fields, a few with all fields, and notes to a bunch of them, approx, 2000

i would like to see what a contact page looks like without having to download your program!

Hi there!

How can I see the full mail adress in my list of received emails (instead of just a name)? It's kind of a security issue, since everybody can just pick any name. My friend Robert can send me a mail showing his name is PayPal. It's an open door to scammers and deception!

It seems like there were add-ons in the past "Show Adress Only" or "Full Adress Column" but they're not supported by new Thunderbird versions.

How come an add-on is needed to show such a simple and already received information? There are so many things that can be displayed but this important one seems missing. I would feel much better if I could see the real mail adress for any mail received without having to click on it. Thunderbird would feel more professional.

Are there any other supported add-ons to enable it? Why doesn't Mozilla add this function?

Best regards

I need a button to get immediate check of my email inbox from my provider. The old button has been replaced b y a NON-FUNCTIONING button which offers the key alternative alt-1, which also DOES NOT WORK
