Thunderbird Support Forum

Hi Community, i wanted to ask wether it normal that Thunderbird 115 needs 60 seconds to load the interface? When it starts it shows my personalised theme and an empty space for a whole minute. (i measured it)

Directly after installation everything was fine. But now i have set up my acconts and rearranged some buttons. Is there maybe a problem with Exchange synchronisation on startup? Both of my accounts are provided by Exchange servers.

Greetings ffproblems

Just was updated to Thunderbird Supernova. Now when I perform a search with the unified toolbar I get a list of results, but anytime I select one of the results a new tab is open with a Blank message.

I've re-indexed my emails as per : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/rebuilding-global-database but that hasn't helped.

Anyone else having this problem and found a solution? The only work around I have so far is to use the Ctrl-Shift-F which works, but is a little slower.

Thanks, Robert

I've changed my ISP's mail server password, and it's correct in Saved Logins, but I can't send mail because I need to change the SMTP password. My SMTP account is listed correctly, but it doesn't appear in the Saved Logins list. So I can't update its password. How can I get my SMTP account added to the Saved Logins list?

Thanks in advance for your work on this.

My mother would like to export her very extensive address book in CSV format for safekeeping and eventually for porting it to a new email address. She recently updated to Thunderbird v. 115. I can find help for exporting address books in previous versions. In v115, under Tools, I can only find that a zip file of everything in the profiles directory can be made. Am I looking in the wrong place? Any suggestions besides downgrading to v. 102?

I was able to send emails till July 14. After that day it's been impossible to send or reply to messages from my Outlook account (I receive emails though). I have made no changes to Thunderbird's configuration since then. Basically it's the Oauth2 authentication that fails. I briefly see a browser page for authentication, wait, wait, wait and then the mail is not sent and I get an error message related to servers timeout (attached). Sorry, my interface is in Italian, but anyway the message is something like: "Unable to send email because of a timeout on the connection to the out server (SMTP) smtp.office365.com. Try again." Is this a known bug? Any ideas? It's quite annoying to use the browser interface to send messages while I am able to receive them in Thunderbird :) Thank you in advance, guys!

Hi, sorry to ask, but my E drive (where I keep data, etc) died. I do have backup and have the whole Thunderbird\Profiles folder. I watched the YT video, but I don't get it. It should just be easy to point the whole folder to it. All my stuff on C is fine, so it does come up with the email accts and the address book. I did try to do an Import, but got errors. Please Help! I am an OLD IT guy, so I am not stupid. It should be easier than this! I will attach 2 pics. Maybe someone will take pity on me...LOL.

FYI, I use an Over 10 year old W7Prof Installation, migrated thru about 3 pc's, on an i-5 (yes, I am lazy And Love W7) and my 1TB hard drive is over 12 years old (yes, I know...don't ask), And It DIED. So you can imagine what I been going thru since last Sat!!! WHAT A MESS AND BRAIN STRAIN!

Also, I HATE Gmail Web Mail!!!

Oh, and I have donated before. I had Windows Live Mail forever, but when Googley put the OAUTH PW mod in, I had to switch. I do like T-Bird. Sorry to write so much...Thanks again...

THANKS, Sam in FL

I am completly confused with migration, I want to move T/bird as I have it in Win 10 to a new machine with Win 11.

None of the articles make sense, the link to the "profile folder" takes me to a big list of things not recognised here:

C:\Users\R-LT-NOVA\Downloads\tfr data

The R-LT etc is the name of this machine.

Thunderbird is working fine but there is nothing under users>AppData>Roaming>Thunderbird although a "prifile" there does seem to point to the file above.

Thanks in anticipation.

I have cleaned and re-cleaned existing Thunderbird installation; export still creates a 2.7GB file which import fails with. HOW DO I MIGRATE MY PROFILE? (Firefox migrate was smooth as butter) I have used Thunderbird for 10 years, but am ready to switch to a different mail client if I can't get it migrated. PLEASE HELP!

Installed thunderbird for the first time. Mouse scroll wheel doesn't work in the inbox, in message view, in settings, or in calendar.

The scrollbars are visible, if I click and drag them they work, if I use the up/down arrow keys the window scrolls as expected, it's just the mouse wheel doesn't work. Mouse wheel works in other programs ex firefox.

I disabled smooth scrolling and autoscrolling but the issue persists.

I updated Thunderbird to Verson 115, now 115.01. The global search shows result, but when opening messages, tab is empty. Search result list is also empty. I already rebuilt global-messages-db.sqlite.

Attached error console log.
