very recently perhaps with a McAfee or Thunderbird update , I am seeing a message that McAfee stops a threat every time thunderbird does a message retrieval. see attachments. I have checked my outlook account directly and deleted a bunch of messages but it persists.

Iam getting statements saying someone living in same town as I getting on my account with a Linux or android what is Linux representing and when they say android with one ?? I have 3 different thing's i use but I never use a computer. Lap top or desk type???.

I always get: "newmsg Trojan:WIN/SuspiciousAttachmentScript.a" and "C:\Users\newb\AppData\Local\Temp Trojan:WIN/SuspiciousAttachmentScript.a" from Mcafee when I open Thunderbird. I'm only getting this in Thunderbird and suspect it's a false positive of some kind. It's still worrying and I'd like to eliminate this. This has been going on for a couple of months. I've run several cleaners and anti-virus programs on the system, but it still returns.

thanks

I have a suspicion someone is reading my e-mails. I am using Virgin Media as my ISP and have changed the password on my account.

Is that enough to stop my e-mails being read by someone other than me or what can I do to protect my inbox, please?

Since I upgraded to 152.0.1, some s/mime encrypted messages do not display. This happens for both old and new messages. Moreover, for these messages, the flag of "new" stays active even after I click on it, suggesting that thunderbird did not "read" the message. The encryption is done by posteo.de automatically for any email that arrives to me. Even the simplest email just written "test" fails systematically when I send it to myself, but some messages sent from others also fail to display. I have installed the extended support version 140.12.1esr (aarch64) to check, and the emails display fine with it.

Anyone with a similar issue or idea of the problem, which I guess might be a bug? Thanks, cassio.

My default email address ([redacted-1]@btinternet.com) has been hacked and access to my contact list gained. Many contacts receiving emails purporting to be from me.. I have changed my default address to another one ([redacted-2]@gmail.com). What do you suggest I do or should I report it to another organisation? Thanks, Peter Russell

i can still see my email folders but these popups appear for each email account in thunderbird (mac osx high sierra) never saw them before so seems something has been compromised? tried to screencap but it's only showing about: url but urls zip by and was able to catch the url a few times earlier but not now.

my accounts are valid this is a new problem just appearing for first time ever

"thunderbird is up to date" for mac os x high sierra

I just got this email: Did you sign in to Firefox? Help us keep your account safe by approving your sign-in on: Firefox on Windows 10"

This is after setting FF as default again (3rd time today). Got into this problem trying to report that FF behaves differently when using W11 HOME vs PRO. Don't know when this started. This system has been a "home" system from day 1. When I go check defaults with W11, (only O/S on this laptop) it shows that FF is the default browser for many things.

But if I do an update, or have to do a reboot, first time started, it wants to be made the default *again*.

NOTE: Mozilla sent the above email to me that this is FF on Windows 10. This is W11 HOME, not 10.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I used to ignore these, but today I clicked through to see the extended code and it looks like the unauthorization was to log into my bank account at CHASE, which is concerning. I have a separate login, not an automatic one. I someone trying to get into my bank account?

I have just setup Thunderbird and it seems to work fine. when I login it asks me to to enter my password and if I follow the instructions, I am in, fine. But if I just cancel without entering my password 4 times I am in as well. Is there an settings I need to change so I can not open my mail without my password? I am using Windows 11

As per the title. I have allowed external content for one message (it is disabled by default). Finding the option to do that was easy, because there is a specific message with a drop-down menu to configure access to external content for that particular message.

However, now that I have allowed external content, I do not wish to keep it allowed (no need for external parties to know when and where I open and re-open and re-re-open this e-mail). The drop-down menu to manage the privacy options for this particular message has disappeared. That is inconvenient, to say the least, because I can't see any other way to get to those options. What am I missing?

I have 'Allow remote content in messages' turned off.

When viewing a message with remote content, I see the bar "To protect your privacy, Thunderbird has blocked remote content in this message", however the 'Preferences' dropdown described in Remote Content in Messages does not exist...

I want to show remote content for a single message, but this seems impossible!

What am I doing wrong?

Hi Team,

Greetings!

I need your assistance regarding password protection for the Thunderbird email client.

I have configured an IMAP account in Thunderbird and enabled the **Primary Password** feature. However, if I cancel or skip the password prompt during startup, Thunderbird still opens successfully, and all previously synchronized email messages in the Inbox remain accessible. The user is also able to view the mailbox and access email content.

My requirement is that "Thunderbird should not open, display any email messages or allow Send/Receive operations unless the correct password is entered".

Could you please advise if this functionality is supported natively or suggest the recommended approach to achieve this?

Looking forward to your guidance.

Regards, Ps Cheema
