Thunderbird Support Forum

Used Thunderbird for years. No issues. Following upgrade to current version:

1. Usually opens multiple email tabs 2. Most current email is not visible. Drops below bottom line. Must scroll to see it. 3. If you delete the highlighted email, the next email is highlighted so light you can barely see it. 4. Often jumps to othe emails.

Ver 115.4.1

Older version was rock solid. Not sure if these are "features" or problems.

We are running Thunderbird 115 and encountering an annoying issue. We run two separate mailboxes and always sort by date with most recent at the bottom. It seems that whenever we switch from one mailbox to the other, the focus seems to jump to somewhere in the middle of the message library, rather than the 'bottom'/newest message. We scroll to the bottom, and then switch back again to the other mailbox and find our focus again somewhere in the middle...

When I am on a web site most of the time there is a link used to send an email to their company. How do I configure Thunderbird to be the default email client to write and send my message? Right now Windows Live Mail is the default

Since the new update, when I delete a message, the message "window" scrolls and I have to scroll back to where I was. This is very annoying and wastes time. I hope my description makes sense.

We are running Thunderbird 115 and encountering an annoying issue. Somehow 'threading' keeps getting activated randomly. It is not being manually activated since the 'View' setting is not even normally displayed. We have to keep looking for the setting to turn it off as it is a feature that we do not like to use.

For the past few months Thunderbird has had some of my Folders I want deleted not deleting, just a faint trace of them still there, very annoying. Now it is randomly deleting Folders I want to keep and now cannot access any of the emails that were in the folders. Please help as this is VERY annoying

I have 4 accounts in Thunderbird all with both incoming and outgoing servers set up and under account management they should all be using there individual SMTP accounts but no matter which one I send with it only sends from the default account which is creating all sorts of delivery problems. How do I delete the default account so it sends from the individual smtp accounts like it should do

I use multiple folders and subfolders in TB. Since the major update a month ago things have gone strange. 115.3.1 (64-bit) on Mint Linux.

Repeatedly a top level folder (in this case "Writing_2023") will be bolded, showing that there are unread messages.

When I click the folder, there will be no sign of an unread message in any of the lower level folders. They are not bolded.

None of the subfolders contain an unread message. Restarting TB makes no difference. My Android phone (using Fairmail) does not exhibit this problem.

Thanks folks. Barry

Hello,

I have used Thunderbird for my Virgin Media email account for many years ago, always easily and happily.

However, as of the past few days Thunderbird will no longer send emails via that account. Receiving is fine, but it won't send. The email account itself is fine. I can send messages via webmail. I've checked the passwords and even reset the app password and entered a new one, but nothing seems to work.

Does anybody have any suggestions, please? I am running the latest update of Thunderbird in Windows 11.

Many thanks, Paul

On my new PC when I enter Thunderbird it doesn't open the highlighted message lower on the screen but will open in a new tab if requested . What am I not doing right ?

I cannot get the password as requested for POP.verizon.net. Although Verizon is involved so is AOL (???). How do I get around this problem? Thank you. Your help will be appreciated.

Thunderbird displays messages as a long list. It never did that before an update, and now I can not find out how to turn that nonsense off! I don't want to see every message from some person tabbed across the screen when I search for their name. I want to just pick one message, often a recent message.

How do I search for a message from a random person and only get one message I choose to view?

Why can't I mark multiple folders in Thunderbird, you could before updating to version 115.4.2 (32-bit). It is a good idea when, for example, exporting emails in EML format Best regards Kenneth Winther

Since the big update I cannot read my messages in the message window without scrolling as I read each line. The message window is so small that I can only see about four lines of text at a time. I can't get the messages to open in a new window unless I click on them and choose "open in new window" even after setting them to open in a new window on their own.

The last update fixed the font on everything from being too big in spite of settings so now I can read a little more at a time. It's still very frustrating having to scroll constantly.

I've been using Thunderbird/Eudora for 20+ years. Today, I was forced to download a new version today. In doing so, I lost most of my saved folders as well as my email address list. Just finished reentering 200+ addresses but can't figure out how to print a hard copy so I can crosscheck and save as a hard copy. HELP!!!!!.
