Thunderbird Community Forum

I used Thunderbird for many years, but starting in August 2025 it stopped working. It was getting an error in the smtp server, and I was unable to resolve that issue. When I try to login to Thunderbird now, it tries to send a message to pwrichcreek@twc.com, but that no longer exists. Thanks for your help.

Having used Outlook for over 20 years I have over 500 folders and thousands of emails. Is there a way to tell how many folders and emails I have? Can Thunderbird handle such a large import, maintain my folders and their hierarchy, and the maintain the emails stored in them?

I use Pop3 and have about 30 email accounts. Is that an issue? Does Thunderbird import all of the account settings?

Can I run both Thunderbird and Outlook simultaneously to determine if Thunderbird has imported everything and the migration is complete and fully functioning?

I read someone had a problem importing because their Outlook was 32 bit versus 64. How do I tell if mine is one or the other?

Do you know of any other import issues/problems?

All the folders, Inbox included, disappeared from one of my outlook accounts. It's OK everywhere else so I decided to remove and re-add the account in Thunderbird but now I can't add it again.

I get the error. "Authentication failed. Please check the username and password Exchange auth error"

I know the Username and Password is correct.

Solution appreciated, please.
