Today, when I use, create, or rename a sub folder in my inbox, then move an email into it, the email doesn't display in the sub folder. (it says no message found). All filters are off. Across the top of the open sub folder, it says the name of the sub folder in bold, and says there are "2 messages". So, the messages were moved, but I can't see them. I have version 140.4.0esr, 32 bit. Interestingly, it hasn't asked for an update. Also, I'm using Windows 10 Home, v 22H2, 64 bit. I appreciate any thoughts, folks. Thanks! Allan

Several days ago, I asked for an explanation of any process that would retrieve the emails I lost (completely missing) after the compacting process. (You are referring to https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1513163 )

Your information indicates that compacting would not cause any data loss. That has not been the case.

To date, I further haven't received any response regarding how I might retrieve those emails.

Many of these emails are quite important to my business - and I entrusted your software to preserve those. Again - no response regarding how I might retrieve them.

Please respond ASAP - I am at critical juncture here, and need a resolution forthwith.

Thank you. John Van Epps <redacted>@gmail.com

Not displaying all local folders because windows path length too long SOLVED

I am using Thunderbird V144.0.1 on a computer running Windows 11 Home build 26100. Suddenly, Thunderbird stopped displaying some of my Local Folders. I don't know what I did to cause it; I don't recall making any changes. On investigating the issue, none of the other help I found in the forums or elsewhere on-line worked for me.

While performing one of the instructions, I was trying to copy my Thunderbird profile mail folder to a different location before creating a new profile. Copying the folder gave me an error of a file name being too long. I moved the folder with the too-long file into a different subfolder with a shorter directory name. Lo and behold, all of my folders, including the ones I moved, are now appearing in my Thunderbird Local Folders.

I don't really need any help, but I wanted to post this solution since I didn't encounter it anywhere else.

thunderbird 144 message filter failing with message "UID copy rate limit" error message

I get the pop-up attached and the notification: "The current operation on 'Inbox' did not succeed. The mail server for account < --- > responded: [LIMIT] UID COPY rate limit... (it's cut off beyond that).

I'm getting this response regularly, although not every time, when creating new message filters. The filters simply copy and delete from the inbox to a folder on the email server.

The inbox that has several hundred emails and choosing a new or existing target folder makes no difference. It seems as if it can only process a certain number of emails and if the number is too high it aborts the filter.

FWIW, some of the filters run fine after the original emails are moved into the target folders manually - i.e. when new emails arrive they are properly moved.

The source is a Yahoo account. I have set the threads to 1 and restarted. I am using TB 144.

Hello,

A couple of days ago when I opened Thunderbird all of my emails in my Inbox before 18.10. where suddenly gone. All other files in my folders and trash are still there as far as I can tell.

First I thought they were moved but I can't find them anymore, they just vanished.

The inbox file in my profile folder is now 2MB in size, I have a backup from 2 years ago where it was 2,3GB so it must have been even bigger than that.

I believe there was a thunderbird update but it was so fast that I did not even notice at first.

I'm on windows 10 and thunderbird 144.0.1

I'm pretty sure my mails are gone, I was just wondering if anyone is in a similar situation and what could have caused this.

Thanks for any clues.
