Thunderbird Support Forum

We have been using Thunderbird with a Cox email account. Cox has just transferred all its customers to Yahoo. I want to use Thunderbird with Yahoo. How do I set that up?

Hi.,

 Cox cable just discontinued their email server and moved all it's email accounts to Yahoo.

I had been using Thunderbird successfully with Cox for several months before this happened.

 I am able to send and receive emails now via my new online Yahoo server;  however I have not

been able to connect / use Thunderbird to send and receive emails since the Yahoo changeover. I have tried many things, but I either get a "failed" error message or a "timed out" error message. Yahoo support has not been able to figure this one out. They are hard to get a hold of and hard to understand (communicate with). They are overseas from the US.

 I appreciate any help you can offer.

Kind regards, Ken

Hello, I have been using Thunderbird with the Manually Sort Folders app for years. The ability to place folders and subfolders where I need them is essential for what I do. With the latest Thunderbird "upgrade", it was downgraded as the Manually Sort Folders app is no longer useable. Until Mozilla fixes it to where either the app can be used or Thunderbird is improved so that it will let me sort folders itself, I cannot upgrade. Please either render the Manually Sort Folders app useable again or make Thunderbird so that folder can be sorted. Thank you.

Hello,

This is my very first post to a support community so please excuse me for any rookie mistakes and oversights.

T.B. 115.8.0 (64-bit) Windows 10 - IMAP settings with multiple domains and multiple accounts on each.

Problem/Issue: Most searches return the expected results, but in certain cases, and seems to affect mostly the sub directories in Local Folder (have not been able to replicate problems in strings found elsewhere).

Things I have already done: - Rebooted PC - Compacted the folder where the email resides - Repaired such folder - Confirmed that Global search is clicked for such folder - Opened the email to confirm that it does open and is valid (Remember that it's in Local folders so already downloaded)

E.g. Global search string "Re: New Project 25-301-623 needed into Swahili - word count 321" (which does exists in Local Folders) does not produce any results but (Deleted first character of the string) "e: New Project 25-301-623 needed into Swahili - word count 321" produced results for "New Project 25-301-623 needed into Swahili - word count 321" without the results for "Re:...". Additionally, no filters are displayed such as Location, People, etc. (Running the same search within the folder where it resides works fine.) Cutting down the string to only "Re: New Project 25-301-623" still does not find any results. Global search for string "Payable Summary for: August 2022", which resides in the same folder tested is found but no filter data available for Location, People, etc. However a search for "Project delivery for Job: 25-258-813" again residing in the same folder is found with Location, Account and People. I've tested same approach and tests on different folders to rule out Folder specific problems and behavior is the same problem.

Another example that might help in figuring things out. I tested a string of an email subject from an amazon order, which are long in nature do to # dashes, long numbers, etc. Performed a global search and the email was found but no Filters shown. Did the same search removing the end of the string "has shipped" and the email was found once again but with all Filters showing.

I hope I have been thorough enough. If any additional information is needed please let me know.

Thanks to all.

trying to get email - got this error; How do I fix this?????????? Happening last few days.

my email: [edited] @yandex.com

Sending of password for user pizzipie did not succeed. Mail server pop.yandex.com responded: [AUTH] login failure or POP3 disabled, try later. sc=75IVcg0DLKo0_290005_

As of today Cox is moving all email services to Yahoo. I have been using Thunderbird for Cox.net email. I have about 40 existing folders under cox.net. Yahoo now has Cox.net and is providing my new emails so I still have the same email address and can access it through webmail. What is the best way to transition this from the old Cox cox.net to the new Yahoo cox.net on Thunderbird and keep all existing folders? Thank You

Suddenly I can not receive my emails on Thunderbird. They do show up on my cell phone. When I send an email, I get the following, "Your message was sent, but a copy was not placed in your Sent folder due to network or file access errors. What can I do?? Ed PS I will get your email response on my cell phone, thank you.

Upon reopening Thunderbird mail today, I find that the latest update does not allow emails to be opened in a new window with one-click. Clicking on an email launches the message in a new tab instead of a window. Why create a new issue like this? DUMB . . . please fix.

How can I turn off the threading of my emails? Its driving me crazy as when an email comes in after a short time it disappears into the threads and then I have to open each thread to find out who sent the email. At one stage there were 6 emails noted near the inbox but no new unthreaded message, all went to respective threads. Very time wasting.

After the last couple of Thunderbird updates, I have been experiencing a really frustrating issue that I can't seem to resolve.

Only when I receive emails from one specific recipient and I go to reply to them, the font size is suddenly really large, and the spacing between new lines is huge.

Even if I set the font options to the same as if I was replying to a different recipient or creating a new message, it still appears really large.

What's worse is even if I make all these adjustments and get the font size and formatting looking okay, the actual sent message is even more out of whack and has all these spacing problems.

Does anyone know what might be going on? No other mail client I use experiences this issue whatsoever, and this issue is only occuring with this recipient.

I have turned anti-virus off, checked account settings and checked provider's access limit. I can receive emails in webmail, but not Thunderbird. I don't get any error message in Thunderbird, emails just won't come through.
