Why won't Thunderbird email work for me? It always wants password for "ricc on imap,shaw.ca" I phoned Shaw (my isp) but they don't support Thunderbird

Hi,

Can anyone suggest a solution please?

I use Thunderbird Version 101.0.1 on a Windows 10 PC. I am in England UK. All my email accounts are setup as IMAP.

I note that email messages in the 'draft' folder can be edited and the messages have an 'edit' button. This means, you can edit and save messages.

I have created folders in Thunderbird and I move messages from 'drafts folder' into these folders. Problem is I can't edit them and save them. I have to keep moving the message into 'drafts' then edit and save and move. This is inconvenient. 

I have tried various add ons but none do what i want. How can I make Thunderbird, show the 'edit' button on messages in my other folders so that I can save the message and edit it later.

Where can you suggest that Thunderbird make such an add-on.

Thank you in advance

My hard drive had to be replaced and now I cannot recover my Thunderbird Email. Keeps asking for a password but won't accept it. Asks for password for "mobile.charter.net" I think I have totally screwed up all the settings in trying to find a solution. I checked with my internet provider but no help. Could someone please help a very senior and very frustrated Granny? Thanks in advance.

I have unwanted Text being displayed on my Desktop. Currently the word "Thunderbird" is being displayed and I cannot get rid of it. I previously had the word "Firefox" displayed. I have removed Firefox and reinstalled it, but still have the same issue

Since today, we experience an unusual problem in Mozila Thunderbird. The program ask for the password for the email that is already sign in. And if we enter the password, it ask for the password again. The error is "login to server outlook.office365.com with username failed". Our company need to solve this problem because we use Mozila Thunderbird for over 100 employee.

Thank you!

I got back on to Thunderbird today after being away for a couple of weeks. Downloaded and updated Thunderbird, as I usually do when an update is available. I am now on 115.2.2 (32-bit) Windows 10 My previously received emails are still there, last one 8/27/23 When I click on "get emails" nothing happens. No error message, no indication that anything is happening. I checked the email isp settings and they are correct I can receive emails on my phone using a different app. The phone app (TypeApp) indicates it is a pop3 account. I changed the Thurderbird account settings to Pop3.optonline.net frp, pop.optonline.net. Now my account and the emails have disappeared!! Please help BTW, before I changed the pop to pop3, I sent a test email using Thunderbird and it went through properly. thanks

I need help finding a repair person who makes house calls in the Denver, CO area. I am having problems with Thunderbird mail, smtp, passwords and Microsoft. I have spent a long time trying to fix the problem but I have run out of time and need to get the problem fixed. I understand that this would not be a free service.

Thank you for your help. Doug

Hello, I might be asking the wrong people this question but I have to start somewhere. When ever I press ENTER while writing a letter in the ThunderBird E-Mail program I get a complete line skip. This makes the letter look very funny. Thank you for your attention to this matter for me.

In November of 2020, I was forced by ATT to stop using Thunderbird as my email client, for both incoming & outgoing email. ATT changed its security protocols, and that required that I begin (at that time) using ATT's (pathetic) email client.

I have used the very clumsy, very limited ATT / YAHOO email client ever since... and, hated every minute of it.

I had previously used Thunderbird for 10-20 years, literally, and I loved the dynamic functionality which Thunderbird offered.

Since then, I have hated my ATT / YAHOO email experience, and I would like to start using Thunderbird again, if that is possible, considering the ATT security protocols.

Can anyone help me ?

Formerly I could decide the window size for the number of minimum visible received emails in the list down to 3. But for any reason the minimum now is 10. Which does that the space for text content is reduced a lot. How can I get back the former possibility?

Hi there.

I recently updated my Mozilla thunderbird email to the latest version 102.12.0 (32-bit). Now all my Mozilla thunderbird calendar entries have disappeared. How do I get these entries back please? I've had a look on the support pages and found this article:

Lightning disappears after a Thunderbird update (release and beta versions) This may happen if the update of the add-on is stuck. Don't worry about your calendar data, it is left untouched and will be available again if you follow these steps to restore Lightning:

Go to the Advanced section of Thunderbird Settings and click on Config Editor... Copy or start typing extensions.installedDistroAddon.{e2fda1a4-762b-4020-b5ad-a41df1933103} into the search box When extensions.installedDistroAddon... is listed in the preferences list, right-click on it and choose Reset from the context menu - the preference now isn't bold anymore and its value is empty Close the editor, leave the Thunderbird options, open Thunderbird's add-ons manager and switch to the list of installed extensions If Lightning is listed there, click on Remove to the right of the list item Restart Thunderbird After Thunderbird has been relaunched, Lightning will be back and you will have access to your calendar data.

However I don't have an "advanced section" of Thunderbird settings or a "Config Editor" section.

Any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards Trevor

how and where do I set up "Safe Senders" in Mozilla Thunderbird? Have looked at some previous anwsers but they all refer to using Options setting which isn't available in Thunderbird tools tab

Hi. I followed directions to open a Thunderbird account, [edited] @fencemail.com. As required, I paid for a Domain Name: [edited] @micalone.org, from Ghandi, including a VAT Tax. I got an intercept, that a problematical HTML(?) was missing, whatever it is, with nary a hint nor link to fix the problem. Horrors! Unfortunately, I am not a computer whiz, and most computer technical verbiage is like hieroglyphics to me. I am in a dilemma in that I do not have the proffered Internet address. Do to a nasty virus, I no longer have access to my old ISP address, [edited] @juno.com, hence the need to open the highly recommended Thunderbird account. So, I can not send or receive email to resolve this HTML problem. Is the U.S. Postal Service a viable option? If so. my postal address is: Nick Micalone, [removed address information from public]. If someone is intimately familiar with the Thunderbird enrolling process, I will gladly pre-pay for the postage and associated costs for a fix by simple instructions. If this helps, I do have the Thunderbird logo on my desktop. Hopefully, the Thunderbird wizards can fix this remotely, at their end. Best regards, Nick M.

my mozilla thunderbird client is blocking all emails from a sender "@loveadmin.com" This is a valid email sender, it is an sports admin based system. These emails are not even appearing in my Junk folder. I have added it to my address book but just seem to disappear down a hole somewhere. What specific settings need to be set to enable these emails to be accepted by Thunderbird.
