Thunderbird Support Forum

I want to select random emails (not all in a row sequentially) and delete with single function. I don't want to have to delete each unwanted email individually.How to d this?

Also, There is no delete function at top of email screen-why not?

Have used Thunderbird for about 2 weeks, no issues until a couple of days ago when sent folder disappeared. There was also an advisory something about if you have used the program after such and such a date, etc... Seems an update came to my computer at same time sent folder problem occurred. It's probably here someplace and possible easily found but ....

Thanks

Hi Everyone, my inbox has suddenly gone from newest first, i.e. at the bottom of the list of the inbox to alphabetical order which is a real pain to have to scroll up and down to find new e.mails. I am ancient and not very computer literate, so any help would really be appreciated.Thank you in advance

my sent emails don't save in the sent folder. When I click send for a new email ... I get an error message that says it can't save to the sent folder. Just started using TB yesterday.

I am having number of MBOX files exported from my Thunderbird mailboxes. From those some MBOX files are having some crucial evidences. I have to present those evidences in court in a PDF format. So need a solution on how to change the format of MBOX files? How can I print MBOX to PDF?

I am migrating from outlook to Thunderbird. The import all mails and addresses is not working. So I exported by email addresses from my server to a csv file. I imported the csv file in Thunderbird. I have to OK every address for the import. Is there a way to import in one click

In the main Inbox view of Thunderbird, everything above the tabs is missing. It is transparent, but the area is still part of the Thunderbird window and clicking it keeps the focus in that window. I am running 24.3.0. I have encountered two possible fixes for this (one was related to themes, but I'm using the original theme, the other was to hit toggle fullscreen - in my case, F11 appears to be disabled or broken), but haven't been able to solve the problem. I am running Windows 7 Pro SP1, x64

What is the easiest method to import the outlook 2003 contacts (adresbook) to Thunderbird which is installed on Ubuntu. (Windows XP + Ubuntu 14.04 installed on same computer)

I'm a bit surprised that even today, this somehow seems to remain kind of a problem. Articles are pointing to complicated procedures, implicating various other programs which should helping in resolving what should be a simple import of the oulook.pst files.

Outlook can export to various type of files. Which format could Thunderbird itself use to import "directly" with some chance of succes ?

I trust that Mozilla is aware of it that it still is a point of concern to users. Focussing on migration is the first priority after installation.

I found a very good Dutch article about installation http://support.mozilla.org/nl/kb/thunderbird-installeren-linux.

But about importing from Oulook (2003 or other) , I wasn't able to find some straigthforward guidance for a "easy" and simple import operation, probably because there still isn't one yet.

Thank you.

Importation (option in the Tools menu) crashes and generates an error notification. I have several folders in the inbox of my Outlook and archived old messages (in different pst files). Could it be the reason for the failure?

I started getting this alert after a restart last Saturday (2-22-2014) and Thunderbird freezes before it is fully operational: (incorrect application behavior?)

Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features.

I have over 500 GB free on the hard disk and have checked the directory TTBOMA. As recently as this morning I again uninstalled TB using the TB uninstall utility, rebooted and reinstalled from the Mozilla website. Nada,

Any help out there?

My apologies if I posted this on the wrong page.

For the last week whenever I open Mozilla ThunderbirdI get a problem with script running, then this: Script: chrome://calendar/content/calendar-month-view.xml:990

I don't use Chrome and don't know why this is interfering with opening the program. I have been clicking on 'stop script' twice to enable the program to run properly. How do I correct this?

Many thanks.

When sending an email, under the Options tab, there is a Delivery Status Notification box. When I check this I do not get any notification when my email is read. Why is this?

My Thunderbird seems to be stuck as I can't receive any new mail but continue to receive

the same old one over and over. I have restarted the program on my desktop with no change. I still receive my emails on my phone which is not through Thunderbird. Anyone have a solution for this problem?

I couldn't remember my TB PW so tried the ones i thought it was only to be locked out. Now i know what it is, so how do i make ThunderBird ask for my password again? Thanks In Advance Dave

I changed the password for my yahoo mail account but now I can't find a way to change that stored password in the account settings in Thunderbird under ubuntu 12.04. I deleted the saved passwords but it still fails saying password failed.

TB signs onto my mail server as [<IP address>]. Strictly speaking this is "illegal", especially if this is a reserved (non-public) address, since the EHLO/HELO is supposed to enable the machine to be identified. How can I get it to identify itself with an FQDN?

Reason: If I can do this, I can configure my server to drop connections from clients sending HELO/EHLO [<IP address>] which would strengthen my SPAM defence.
