When i open Address Book and the clikc on " Create a new address book" the Account Hub modal window opens. None of the 4 options (including Add Remote Address Book" do anything, i.e. I can click as much as I like but nothing happens.

Thunderbird won't completely delete an invalid email address

I deleted an old email address for a friend, but every time I email her, the auto-complete feature includes both the current email address and the one for her old job. I've deleted that one, and it doesn't seem to show up in the Address Book anywhere, so why does it keep coming up in the auto-complete?

It's annoying to me and to the place of employment to have the emails go to the wrong address when I'm not watching very carefully.

How can I make sure this doesn't happen again?

TB randomly autocompletes with an old address

I am using TB 140.9.0esr (64-bit) on Kubuntu 25.10 but this has been true for some years. Mostly when a start a new Email address whether in the To:, cc: or bcc: fields TB does a very good guess after a few letters about the address I want. However, every so often, perhaps 5% of the time it will pick the correct person but I won't notice that it has picked an old address for that person. It seems to happen in bursts, so three times in the last few hours for two different addressees. I realise that I could shift the old addresses for people to the notes section of the address book but I would rather not as I am hoping that one day TB will have the ability to search for all Emails to/from someone across all the addresses they ever had, current or deceased. Is there a way you can stop TB suddenly changing its guesses about the addresses for a person? Or could you add a way to tell TB in the address book that addresses are dead and should never be offered as addresses to send to?

TIA,

Chris

I run TBD 140.8.0 esr (64 bit) under Debian 12 Linux. Until recently I could automatically enter a special address from the pertaining addressbook, this does not work anymore. helpfiles do not show a solution thus I am here.

The addressbook is full of addresses however I have to transfer a special address via past and copy into the addressfield of the mail I want to send.

Thanks for a quick answer Jörg Kampmann

Hallo, die Kontakte im Adressbuch werden mit Carddav zu meinem Mailaccount (IONOS) nur teilweise syncronisiert.
