Thunderbird Community Forum

During the installation of Thunderbird I have received the following message:

"The follwing settings were found at your email provider:

mail.your-server.de“

This is NOT my current email provider!!

What does this mean??

I am using T-bird on a Mac. I set up for a gmail account. I can send emails but do not receive replies, etc. I noticed there is no mail inbox for the account. Settings appear correct. Any thoughts? Thank you.

Hello and thanks-in-advance: it would be nice if we could re-order the email accounts listed in the left column, so for our particular workflow, we could process emails from accounts in an order we prioritize. Can this be done?

Have used the SeaMonkey suite for my email since Netscape. It seems the latest version SeaMonkey will not work with Apple’s latest OS on my MacBook Air, and is unlikely to be modified to work. So, my plan was to use Thunderbird, but when I Google to see if it (Thunderbird) is compatible I get an AI generated message that the Thunderbird team is working on a new Apple compliant version. Searching this forum I can find no reference to any Apple compatible version. Anyone with updates on Thunderbird versions that will work on my MacBook Air and the macOS Tahoe Currently happy enough with macOS Sonoma and SeaMonkey, but the nags to upgrade are annoying Thank you for your time Cheers Ralph

Whenever I open a message from the inbox into its own window, the message text and images are tiny and unreadable until I zoom (Shift-Cmd-+) them larger. And when I reply to a message, the text is also starts out tiny, but gets larger when I Zoom it up with the original message. Similarly, the column-header icons of the inbox are tiny, while the text is OK.

All the rest of the interface is normal and readable, except for the tiny text and buttons in the interface-command/confirmation boxes.

I have experimented with the suggestions in these question-replies, but to no avail:

I can adjust the font size and density from the "hamburger menu", just fine. And the MacOS 15.3.n-on-Intel settings seem right.

What am I missing? What else is there to change?

Thanks in advance... Alexander, long-time T'bird user

Last week my usually reliable 'Thunderbird 115.8.01 on iMac 10.13.6 has suddenly gone haywire.

* In the folder pane, multiple folder duplicates reappearing even after deleting them. (See images) * And when I delete messages, they appear in the trash folder, only to disappear and repeatedly reappear - back into the message INBOX. * Also, after making a change in the Notification section to turn off the notice sound, and although the sound turned off, so did the auto-disappear function. Now I have to manually "close" each and ALL notification notices one-by-one. The new problem is: now the notification option section has disappeared in settings. (No image for this one. Nothing there!) Bug? Or something else?

Please help. P.S. I ran both of my antivirus programs twice. Each over different days and both declared' my system clear and clean.
