When choosing to edit a sent message as a 'new' message, placing the cursor at the beginning of the message and pressing <Enter> does not advance the text.

It used to.

Placing the cursor at any other location within the message WILL advance the text with <Enter>.

I CAN add text by typing, but the <Enter> key does nothing.

The intent of placing the cursor at the beginning of the message is to add a line to the previously sent email.

The chosen option of 'edit as new message' should work with <Enter> regardless of where the cursor is positioned.

Any chance of this being addressed?

Thanks.

I am using ThunderBird 153.0 ESR for Linux Mint mint-001 - 1.0

I changed my password for Greenby/Plusnet today. Now Thunderbird is unable to connect to them. The password is correct as I can enter website directly. No problems before change. Grateful for help.

Should I reinstall?

My Send short cut has disappeared.. I also have the "send later" add on to my Thunderbird. I seem unable to send messages. Is there a key board short cut to for sending mail? My old Eudora account used to have one a <Ctl> S.... (With Thunderbird this is Save, instead of send).

When I press the send icon in The Messaging Company email nothing happens. Therefore I cannot send emails. Have tried various port numbers in the outgoing server and secure connection is established.

Setting up Thunderbird for the first time so I can use Thunderbird as "aggregator" for all types of email (incl POP3) on both PC and android tablet. It is working for my Gmail account but not for my POP3 account with Roadrunner (aka Spectrum, aka Charter). The POP3 account is most important and I have 2 more addresses there that I also need to monitor. In the settings section for the roadrunner account there is a server test which seems to work but no email shows up in that account in Thunderbird. I am still getting new email directly in the Spectrum setup that I always use. Google AI thinks my setup should work. How should I proceed? Obviously contacting Spectrum is the easy answer but I thought maybe someone easier to contact would know a likely cause. Thanks

All folders for email are working correctly except Business messages. The server shows 23% full, but the messages are not downloading. I have checked all the connections, and the incoming and outgoing servers are accessible. There seems to be one connection which is not set for Business messages, but I cannot find a solution

I am using Thunderbird 152 on a Windows 11 desktop computer. I want to be able to include a hyperlink in the text of an email message. Please advise. Thank you.

I find now that Thunderbird requires Earthlink's password each time an email is sent. Earlier it required it once a day. I am on Windows 11 using Earthlink.net for provider.

On my iMac, across all thunderbird email accounts, when I click on "New Message", the new window opens up with the Send button and Encrypt button blanked out. To activate the Send button, I have to right click on the Send button, then click on "Customize..." button, then click on "Restore Default Set". Next new message, same drill. This started one day ago and is a pain in the butt. How do I make the Send button live permanently?

I retrieve email from two different servers, one is mine, one for work, All of a sudden last night I got a spam email from my personal email server, that kept coming in over 100 times, but no other email. My work email is fine. I contacted the hosting company for that server, who was supposed to blacklist that spam address, (my Thunderbird junk button wouldn't do it), but I'm still getting those emails only. Thunderbird tells me there are 110 emails (and counting) on the server, but won't retrieve them. I can see them on my phone, just not my desktop. (I have the phone set to leave emails on the server until I retrieve them with the desktop). I thought maybe it was because I hadn't cleared out my Inbox for a while, so I deleted about half of the 30k emails that were in the Inbox folder, but it didn't make any difference. It won't compact because I keep getting an error that says some other operation is in progress, but nothing is. None of my settings have changed, and I'm still downloading what I think are copies of that spam email, since they all have the exact same Send time. My Thunderbird version is current, v 140-13 oesr 32-bit, on Windows 10. What can I do, thank you in advance. Long time Tbird user, rarely any problems. Image of some of the copies of the spam email.

I use Thunderbird on my desktop and since early June, I have not been able to receive any new messages but I can still send. Everything works fine on webmail (Yahoo) and phone (Samsung Galaxy), it's just my desktop which is affected . I asked Duck AI about this and this is what I got...

I tried the solutions offered without success.

A message failed to send due to some issue with the mail server, and Thunderbird said I could choose to Send Later, which I chose to do. But that message disappeared (to me) - wasn't in Drafts, where did it go? Thanks,

Our email comes through SaskTel. They are making changes and suggest that we contact any other platforms we use to confirm they support DMARC-compliant email sending and to see if any updates are needed. Please provide this information to me. Thank You.
