Yahoo.com decided to be jerks and changed everything to get into our email. I was overseas at the time and got it taken care of for the laptop I was using on my trip. When I got back home I updated the rest of my computers to the new settings. However, this computer I am on, my secondary desktop, absolutely positively does NOT show Oauth as a choice for smtp on my Pacbell.net account which has to go through Yahoo.com. All the other server settings are working fine. I can get email, I just can't resply unless I go to my Netscape.net account which goes through AOL. It shows Oauth for AOL. The rest of the computers, and even a new laptop, all work just fine and all are on version 152.01. Even SeaMonkey email has Oauth for smtp but they have done a terrible job of keeping it updated that I can't use it for my Pacbell.net account because I can't enter the new password. Everything is a blank screen for log in and password entry. I am getting tired of having to reply to messages on my Pacbell.net account through the Netscape.net account. What can I do short of a clean reinstall of windows?

I had an account for my business. The account was hosted on Google; but was listed among my Tbird accounts. I closed the business; closed the Email account on gmail; and, I deleted all the folders, and the like from my Tbird client, every reference to the deleted account.

I continually get requests to login to my account. See the attached image.

Does anyone have any idea as to what I missed?

Thanks!

Hi there,

I currently have three email accounts set up in my Thunderbird client. I’d like to disable the automatic marking of messages as read—but only for one specific account (mainly for my colleagues’ convenience, as it’s a shared inbox).

In Settings > General, I see the option to turn off "Automatically mark messages as read", but this would apply to all my accounts, which isn’t what I want. I’ve checked the Account Settings for the relevant account and couldn’t find a per-account option. I also looked for an add-on that might help, but so far, no luck.

Has anyone found a workaround or solution for this? Any advice would be greatly appreciated !

Thanks in advance, Cheers.

I get the following error whenever I start Thunderbird :-

I can no longer download my email from the server to my Thunderbird email client since I removed the specifics for the server with the password. I need to add it back but I don't know how. Is there a file I can edit?

I wish to add email identity deborahstpeter1@gmail.com to my account keweston82@gmail.com. Deborah is in a nursing home and as Power of Attorney I handle all her financial affairs on line. I had to replace my old computer which included Deborah's email in my Thunderbird email account but I've been unsuccessful getting her added to my new computer. I'm 83 years old and operating my old computer, which is where Mozilla's responses are going, and my new computer from which I'm communicating with Mozilla, plus two different mouses, I'm making a lot of mistakes i.e. click a computer scream with the wrong mouse. I wish to add Deb to my account with as little involvement on my part as possible. You can send a verification code to deborstpeter1@gmail.com and I will be sure to use the correct mouse.

I am trying to add an Proton mail account to Thunderbird using the Proton Mail Bridge (PMB). In the PMB guide it is recommended to uncheck Account Hub in the Setting>General. The problem is that the Account Hub still pops up when trying to add a new mail account - it simply refuses to go away regardless of several restarts of both the computer and the mail client!

My ISP has made a change for "third-party" accesses to its e-mail (which still works fine on its own website e-mail access page). I need to check my Username, Password, SSL, Protocol, Incoming & Outgoing Server Ports. BUT I don't see on my Thunderbird page where to find these: it's my preferred way to do e-mail! Where are they??

I have a Google Workspace account which has my company name as a suffix, ie. @chase-design.net NOT @gmail. com. When I try to add an account automatically using the company suffix, Thunderbird does not recognize it. Is there a set-up guide that shows me step by step how to manually configure that type of setup?

Thunderbird forces me to use the new amount hub. And I get authentication error when trying to setup outlook.com email

I just download the latest version of Thunderbird, and try to add my pop mail account. But after i enter the info of outgoing server settings, the Continue button is gray and can't be clicked. once I try the test, it says that Thunderbird failed to find the settings for your email account. Can't find a server. Also i find that there is no place enter the password of my mail account.

Comcast has sent our accounts to yahoo. Email name remains the same. I wish to continue with Thunderbird. I haven't been able to and don't want to lose all my Thunderbird settings and files. They have been transferred to yahoo mail.

I've had a POP3 account for years, with no problem. On a second computer I had a second TB installation that used to get its emails from a folder on the main computer. This suited our purposes very well. The second user could access all my e-mails, and her sent messages also appeared on my computer.

Alas I updated TB, and have lost this capability. Ideally I'd go back to it, but the only way forward seems to be to set up an IMAP account. I have tried this, following the instructions on the Mozilla web site. It's all very easy, but I end up with a message: "Thunderbird failed to find the settings for your email server".

I have of course checked that the settings are correct, but I can't get past this point. I have tried disabling my Internet Security (Bitdefender) but to no avail.

What should I do next, please? I'd go back to an earlier version of TB if that would enable my older method of working.
