Forum communautaire Thunderbird pour Android

When I access my email on my computer using Thunderbird, I have it set to downloaded the emails locally and remove from the server. Starting today, WHEN I access my email using Thunderbird in my phone, all the messages are still there, and I have to manually delete them, and they still stay on my computer email app. I need Thunderbird on Android to start removing them again once I clear the server.

I have a Gmail account. I use a Duck Duck email address as my main email & forward to my Gmail. Can.i assume Thunderbird will download all Duck Duck emails as long as they're forwarded to the Gmail account?

1. I want Thunderbird to automatically erase all but the most recent 250 on my phone as it downloads new ones from my server. As it does so, I do not want the downloaded messages marked as "read" on my server, nor do I want messages erased on my phone to be deleted from my server. (That is all to be taken care of by my desktop email program.)

Phone: Moto g power 5G - 2024; OS: Android 15; Thunderbird v: 23.0 Settings: Fetching mail - Local folder size: 250 messages - Sync server deletions: Off - Mark as read when deleted: Off When I delete a message: Do not delete on server - Erase deleted messages on server: Manually

At present, Thunderbird downloads all the incoming messages and leaves them on, so I quickly find I have 1000+ messages stored on my phone. This eventually slows it's performance notably. I have to manually erase the messages, and then empty the trash, in order to circumvent this problem.

Also, when my desktop downloads the email, many of them are now marked read, even though I haven't read them. I am wondering if Thunderbird for Android isn't marking some or all emails as read on my server as it downloads them to my phone?

Why if you save 2 drafts does the second save wipe out the first? Why is the spell checker used in Write so patchy and disjointed? Why is the select text- cut copy paste- so useless in amending mail?

Why does it somtimes eat emails - they just disapperar.? Why is the share function so limited - docx-

Hello, when I try to answer a message or forward an e-mail, both the attachment, send and more options buttons are missing. They are there when I compose a new e-mail. What can I do?

My email provider sometimes fails to send mail, so I find the mail that didn't send in the sending box (发件箱; I don't know the name in English), use the "edit as new mail" option in the mail 3-dot menu (there's a pencil icon on the top of the screen, but it has no reaction) and tap send button again. I find that every time I do this, the mail's sender identity is reset to the default identity.

I know my Thunderbird version is not latest and is beta, but I'm hesitant about updating. Is it a bug or designed behavior?

Steps to reproduce: 1. Turn off your device's network. 2. Compose and send a mail with an identity that's not the default. 3. Find the mail in the sending box, and choose "edit as new mail". 4. Hit send button. 5. View mail in sending box, it now uses the default identity.

Thunderbird has stopped receiving emails. I followed the instructions I found. restet cache, I have enough memory, hosting service account space is adequate, checked login credentials (I have been sending and receiving for months with no problems) restarted phone. I am getting no error messages.

This happened with my last email program and I installed Thunderbird after no one could find a problem.

Good morning,

Yesterday I wrote a comment about the Thunderbird app and support asked me to submit a report. I then received an email telling me to open a ticket—I honestly don't know how—or to send an email. Here's my problem:

1) The most serious issue is that push notifications aren't working as described. Specifically, I disabled battery restrictions, selected the primary account, went to folder management, and enabled push notifications in the inbox. I tested it by sending an email, and everything worked perfectly. Then I went to the second account I registered, then folder management, and that's where the problem arises. Regardless of the account I use, it always lets me manage folders only from the first account, and that's a major problem. Despite this, even after 15 minutes or with the app open, I still don't receive emails for the accounts, not even after an hour. I have to force the emails to be received, and then Thunderbird shows them to me.

2) In the combined view, it's not possible to move emails into the folders of the mailbox to which they belong. I'm forced to go into the specific mailbox each time and operate. I've tried various clients, and none of the combined view forces you to go into the specific mailbox.

3) Absurd attachment management. If an email has an attachment, I have to click three times to change the view each time. The first click switches from the combined view to the email, the second click switches from the email to the attachments. The third click finally opens the attachments. Other clients just click on the preview.

I look forward to your feedback. Thank you. Julian

Hi All,

I have a Galaxy S22 running android 16 and have been getting the standard email notifications for each of my inboxes.

Recently I get a duplicate notification appear for a new email almost immediately after I clear the notifications screen or swipe it away.

I was hoping an update would solve the issue but I updated it once since it began but the issue remains. I have done all the basic troubleshooting steps like cleared cache, stopped app, restarted device etc. but nothing seems to work.

I havent uninstalled the app yet because I didnt want to risk losing anything important, but if thats the next logical step aside from a configuration change I will do it as these notifications are becoming rather annoying. Help please!

Hello,

For a few days everything worked perfectly. Now suddenly I cannot fetch any emails on neither Thunderbird for android nor Thunderbird on Ubuntu. Both latest versions at time of writing. Sending mails works. Another email client works, another email address from the same server (but different domain) does work.

Any ideas what I can do?

I am experiencing a problem with Thunderbird for Android.

My setup:

• Smartphone: Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra (SM-S918B)
• Android version: Android 16
• Computer: Windows PC
• Desktop email client: Thunderbird for Windows (latest version)
• Email accounts are configured and working correctly on the Windows version of Thunderbird.

The issue concerns the Android application. Despite using the same email address, login credentials and server settings that work correctly on my Windows computer, I am unable to properly configure or synchronize the account in Thunderbird for Android.

The desktop version connects without any issues, while the Android application either rejects the settings or fails to synchronize properly.

I have already:

• verified the email address and password,
• confirmed that the same credentials work on the Windows version,
• checked the incoming and outgoing server settings,
• reinstalled the Android application,
• ensured that the device has an active internet connection.

Could you please advise what additional steps I should take to resolve the issue?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Kind regards,

With three accounts, if the first account is set to folder poll frequency = 15min and the others are set to never, the first account does not poll its folders after 15 minutes. The bug workaround is to set all three accounts to 15 minutes. However not knowing this caused me to miss important emails.

I am preparing to migrate from K9 mail to Thunderbird for Android. Before I go through the process and learning curve for the software, one key feature will be the determining factor.

Does Thunderbird for Android have inbox rules, possibly also called Filters like in Thunderbird Desktop, that will automatically find keywords or sender info in the header of a received message and deposit that message into a designated alternate folder?

That would determine whether I switch to Thunderbird for Android.

Thanks.
