1. Some messages come to my mobile devices but not to my Mac. 2. I watch a message down load but it doesn't end up in my inbox or junk folder. 3. Junk folder says there are 14 messages in it, but when I open it, it's empty. 4. Yes, I'm up to date with Thunderbird. Also, the Mac is up to date. Problem began before latest updates. I have shut down the Mac. I have quit the Thunderbird application. No improvement. 5. I use Comcast for my ISP.

In trying to resolve an issue with email apparently not connecting (receiving new message and sending messages) I used the Troubleshooting Information option and selected the "Clear startup cache" option which resulted in mail disappearing but leaving calendar and contacts intact.

I've attempted to Import the profile backup to restore mail but it has not restored the mail.

I have also tried to re-add the mail account but it stalls at the Oauth stage with what appears to be some sort of dialogue box graphic trying to to open but not opening so am unable to add mail account back that way.

When checking for new email a pop asking for the username and password of the for the email server. Also when a separate email client is downloaded. This only happens when. using a mac book pro. No problem when. using Ubuntu.

For the last 2 days or so, I cannot receive emails in Thunderbird from my Comcast email account, The app receives from other accounts. The app also sends emails from all my accounts, lets me read already-received messages and move the messages to other folders as it usually does. I just can't receive emails from Comcast/Xfinity. I note that Thunderbird had a update a few days ago.

I hope you all are well!

I´ve been having a problem with thunderbird for a while now and today took the time to do the troubleshoot and checked all the account settings. no firewall, no add ons Researching the problem i came across the incompability of different TLS standards. Apparently when thunderbird updated to 78.0 in 2020 a lot of people had the same problem and solved it by downgrading . Since this problem came on suddenly, possibly when thunderbird upgraded automatically, and it only applys to select emails (about half) I guess different TLS standards, some of which are no longer supported by thunderbird, are the reason for this. If i log in to my mailaccount I can see all the emails, same goes for my mobile devices. That´s how i know thunderbird doesn´t display all the messages. My question: Did anyone else encounter this problem? Did I analize this correctly or did I overlook something? I don´t want to change to another provider. I always liked thunderbird for being simple and clean. But downgrading won´t be a sustainable solution either I guess. Thanx for your help. Have a nice day.

I am running 152.0 (aarch64) on MacOS Tahoe.

I have noticed lately that Sent mail is often marked as unread. I can mark the folder read, yes, but I am wondering whether this is a bug or a feature. If it's a feature, I don't understand the benefit.

But specifically, I believe the bug/feature may be isolated to mail you send to yourself. I often will send myself reminders or links for later perusal, and I believe this may be part of the issue I'm identifying.

The presumption being if I sent a message, I have read it and therefore marking it unread isn't really useful.

Anyone notice this, and am I missing something (like a setting)?

Thanks!

My computer has not worked for nine months.

I've been looking at my e-mail on my phone (not in Thunderbird for Android, which pretended to send my messages but didn't). I want it on my computer.

I didn't want to do that right away, but it looks like Thunderbird started doing that automatically when I launched it. It successfully got my small account, of course, but not my big one.

It's been stuck on this for more than 12 hours. (See image. My apologies, I've forgotten how to embed them.)

Is it safe to shut the process down? Whether it is or isn't, what do I do next?

My computer is a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012), running OS X.15 (Catalina), with Thunderbird 140.0.1esr (64-bit). The process started before I could upgrade to 149esr.

Thank you for any help you can give me!

UPDATE, 4/11, 8PM EDT: No change. . . .

When I try to send an email using my Mozilla account, the only choice provided is "send later". I do not want and did not knowingly ask for the choice "send later". How can I have my emails sent right away? Thank you very very much for any help you can give me.

Why am I getting this message from Apple? Apple tells me it's a problem with my server supplier. . . . . Dear esteemed User,

grant@grantmaclaren.com removal from grantmaclaren.com server has been approved and initiated.

PLEASE correct this for me. Thank you.
