I just installed Thunderbird 154, but i cannot find the address book. i know it exists as T-bird does preload my addresses when i create a new email. Is there a button that I am not seeing?

I have just used a saved email address to write an email. When I went to send it the send failed because the from account was an old account I do not use anymore.

How do I change saved email addresses so they do not use the old account.

Why would this happen.

I checked which account I was using at the time and then repeated the process with the same result. I was using my current account.

Trying to set up a mailing list for emails. Not sure how to set up a group that I can use to list names and emails. Went to help. Instructions said to > open address book > select file > new > mailing list. I went to address book ok but cannot find 'File' there.

Am after assistance in getting mailing list set up.

Thanks

My computer had corrupt files on it, so my computer guy had to reinstall windows 11 & all my other folders to my computer. I re-installed Thunderbird with the new version 154.0 & all of my old emails are there but NO email addresses or contact addresses I had saved in there. Please help! Can I download an older version of Thunderbird 139.0.2 from June 17, 2025 for all of my email addresses to be there & contact addresses?

Contacts stopped syncing with Gmail. Followed various troubleshooting including deleting address book and trying to reinstall, and cannot reinstall Gmail address book.

My brokerage firm states that it cannot notify me via email for conformation transaction. How do I add this firm's domain to my address book so that its emails will be received my me?

When I am on my thunderbird email page and switch to page where I used to find my address book. Now all I see is an option to create a new address book. What happened to my old address book? screen shot.HEIC. screen shot.HEIC.pdf

Is this still possible in Release 153 because I cannot find how using this suggestion:

Open Thunderbird, click the Address Book button, select the specific contact list, go to Tools > Export , choose Comma Separated (.csv) as the file type, and click Save.

I updated t the latest version of Thunderbird but since then none of my email addresses were changed with the update. Tried all the advice on line but still can't retrieve my saved email addresses from the inbox and sent box

I utilize a program to scan business cards and need to add these contacts into my contact list in Thunderbird. I know how to add them if the VCF Card is received inside an email as an attachment, but I do not see any instructions on how to add it if it is found locally on my computer or received by text, etc. Thanks in advance, Ken

Maybe I have not found where to set it, otherwise it is a .change request.

When creating a new message and entering a name in the “To” field, all email addresses for the recipient are displayed for selection. - Order as in the address book - The one marked as “Default” is neither the first nor identifiable as such. The order in the address book cannot be changed either. Thank you --- [German] Als Standard markierte Adresse wird nicht als Erstes angezeigt. Neue Nachricht, Eingabe des Namens in „An“, es alle Email Adressen für den Empfänger zur Auswahl angezeigt. - Reihenfolge wie im Adressbuch - die mit Standard gekennzeichnet ist weder die Erste noch als solche identifizierbar. Reihenfolge im Adressbuch auch nicht veränderbar. Vielen Dank

I prefer to have the Contact Name only display in the TO: field of composed or outgoing emails. I already know their address is correct in my Address Book, why do I need to see it? Presently, the TO: field shows "Name <email address>", as shown in the first uploaded image.

I am a new user to Thunderbird and I have reviwed, and believe, set all the Settings correctly that I could find on the subject (see second uploaded image), but the results do not change.

What am I missing?

Thanks Matt T

Hi there,

I'm wondering how I'm able to open open an address book file (Thunderbird) with a separate program other than the Thunderbird Email Client?

Any Ideas Please?
