my emails whether they are read or not move on their own from the inbox to the trash folder without being prompted. I have disabled all spam filters and this still happens. I have to manually move them back to the inbox more than once per day. Help! I have had a lot of problems with Tbird since having to re download the program since my last hard drive failed. Thanks Marc

The Thundebird calendar in month/week view cannot display a full week next to each other. (full width image attached) No matter what I tried. I tried to minimize the left panel (left panel minimized image attached). That barely gives me the saturday added. But still no sunday. If I select a specific sunday from the list of events above, then the whole panel moves to the right, thereby hiding the monday (attached image shifted right) I have even tried to decrease the font used

Is there any way to get all 7 days visible? Is there some magic trick to decrease the width of the week/month view. Why is this not a dynamic view? Workweek = 5 days, week = 7 days

I used to have Thunderbird on this laptop and was using Microsoft Office 365. I have since stopped using it from GoDaddy. I uninstalled the old Thunderbird and reinstalled a new version. I am trying to enter the new server settings but I keep getting the old Office 365 settings showing up. How do I get rid of that and find the new settings page to enter the new settings?

All my old email accounts are showing up and I only want to add 2 to the new Thunderbird. I thought uninstalling would delete all the old stuff. Please help.

All of a sudden my emails are permanently staying in bold in my folders, in Settings >Reading & Display Ive tried changing the 'Automatically mark messages as read radio buttons and quit etc and the same issue is happening, please advise

Just updated to v152 (from 142 esr) on MacOS (26.6 public beta 2) and CardBook creating new contact or edit existing contact and am unable to scroll to bottom of window to the save option

AI tells me I can't just drag my Gmail.com (IMAP) from local Folders to the internet-connected folders section, which contains my Verizon.com account hosted by AOL. How can move my Gmail (IMAP) account safely?

Today is June 22nd 2026 , I was busy all weekend and I just checked my mail this morning , I noticed that the last email I got was Thursday June 18th 2026 , so I right clicked and clicked on "Get Messages" , suddenly I have about 40 emails , dating from the 19th to today , I have complained before about having issues with emails being a day or so late and was told that is when they were sent .... I am calling BS on that response and repeating my claim that something is WRONG with Thunderbird and how (or IF) it recieves emails , because there is no way that ALL the emails I normally get all decided at once to wait to send them to me till today (and I only got them because I clicked on Get Messages , otherwise I most likely still wouldn't have recieved any emails for several days from the date they were supposed to show up)

I can't be the only one with this issue , so hopefully someone has looked into this and come up with a actual FIX , , I have had this email program since Windows stopped Windows 10 Mail and honestly , since its been out for years prior to that , I would think it wouldn't still be buggy as it is , there are lots of features that are just combersome to use (like mass deleting emails by Name) all the way to just actually getting emails on time when they were actually sent (I have literally been on the phone with someone and they send me a email , and I don't get it for hours or sometimes days or sometimes not at all , and they are from people I have recieved emails from before and are part of my address book , so I should get them within minutes at most , not days or never ...

I am about ready to go find something else that is relaiable (and looks better , as I can't even add one of my pictures as a Background , and Light/Dark mode sucks as far as looks goes unless you are some GOTH person or something) and actually user friendly (when I swtiched to this email program it was better than most of the others offered at the time , but honestly , it has never improved and has remained unfinished as far as I am concerned) , it says it "updates" all the time , but I have not noticed ANY improvements in Functionality or looks since I first downloaded it , and for as long as Thunderbird has been available , it should not still be in Beta form and actually function at least as well as Microsoft's outdated emails programs did , but as of this ongoing issue , it is still slow and clunky , it may or may not send you emails depending on the day , and is a pain to navigate things that should be easily accessible on the main page with a simple click , again I'm comparing it to Outlook Express which has been obsolete for years , and Windows 10 Mail because as old as they are , they functioned much better than this email ever has and look much better , at least they allowed personal pictures for a Background

If you don't have a actual FIX for this ongoing issue , then I think it's time for me to move on and find something that actually functions like a email program should , by actually being able to recieve emails faster than Pony Express , which was last used because it was too slow over 165 years ago

If you DO have a FIX for this ongoing issue of not recieving emails when they were actually sent (I complained about this exact issue back in January) , not days later , or being able to close Thunderbird and still get emails alerts (you know like Microsoft has for years , and as much as I dislike Microsoft and their policies and FORCED Feature Windows Updates that screw up everything , at least they had a decent and functional email program since Windows 95 through Windows 10 Mail , but all they offer now is Outlook and I don't do online emails , I want it on my Desktop , which is why I went to Thunderbird in the first place) , maybe since they discontinued theirs , you could just copy/paste everything from it and call it Thunderbird

At least then it would work like it should , and look better , and actually not have to just minimize it in the taskbar so you will know at some point that you got a email , or to make it automatically start when Windows does , so I don't have to manually open it every time I restart my PC , since I have yet to find a setting for that , or if it is there its most likely hidden behind 40 other things you need to open to get to it , even though most likely the email alert sound never happens , maybe 2 times a month if I'm lucky , and even if it is several days late , (like I said 40 different people/companies didn't suddenly decide to wait 3 or more days to all send their emails at once , and only after I clicked Get Messages , oh , by the way , they are EMAILS NOT MESSAGES , a Message is a Text or Chat , a Email is a Email , maybe that is the issue , it doesn't know what its looking for)

As mentioned this has been a ongoing issue that I have complained about before , with no solution , and that no one here seems to want to address or actually FIX or even let me know they are working on a solution (which it seems like no one is) , so I'm tired of complaining to deaf ears , Helen Keller would have figured out what is wrong by now and she is Deaf , Blind and Dead ... When I am expecting a email from a Doctor that has info on a test or something , I need it when they send it , not days later or never .... I keep missing important emails because this program is and has been iffy at best since I have had it ...

I understand that the majority of the Staff for Thunderbird is Volunteers , but it just seems like no one cares what users experience and just brush it off and forget about it , and that is the issue I am and have been feeling with Support .... Not trying to be a jerk , I'm just frustrated with the lack of concern with how this program has and still does function

Thanks ..... Jim

I recently moved from macos to linux and noticed that Thunderbird always reloads one account on startup -- by that I mean that, when I open TB, three out of four accounts display immediately, but the fourth one takes a moment, and then all its folders start appearing in the left-hand-side column. I had a look around and saw something about the .msf file being broken, with a solution being to delete it and let it be rebuilt. I headed to my profile folder but I now see that, in the ImapMail folder, the three accounts that appear immediately have their respective folders and .msf file, but not the account that reloads every time. I tried clicking on "repair" on the (unified) inbox, I tried checking the settings, but am not seeing anything that helps. Any ideas?

For some reason all my emails contained in the inbox keep moving to the trash box by themselves. I have to manually move them back to the inbox. This includes read and unread messages. anyone know how to stop this? V 152.0 64 bit.

Hello,

we have a reproducible issue in Thunderbird when forwarding emails with attachments.

Environment: Windows 11 Professional Thunderbird version 152.0 (The issue also occurred in the previous Thunderbird version) POP3 account Mail provider Strato AVG Business Antivirus installed, but the issue also occurs after testing AVG related settings Issue occurs with different attachment types and sizes, for example PDF and DXF files

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open an email with an attachment. 2. Forward the email using Forward Inline. 3. Add recipient and some text. 4. Save the message as draft. 5. The first save works. 6. Save the same draft again, with or without changing the text.

Actual result: The second save fails with an error message similar to:

“Your message cannot be saved as a draft. There was an error attaching [filename]. Please check if you have sufficient access rights to the file.”

Expected result: The draft should save repeatedly without an attachment error.

Important observations: The problem occurs with all tested attachments, not only one specific file. The file size does not seem to be the cause. The issue also occurred with a small DXF attachment of about 355 KB. The issue also occurs in Thunderbird Troubleshoot Mode. The issue still occurred after creating a new Thunderbird POP3 profile and downloading the remaining emails again from the Strato POP3 mailbox. Changing the draft folder did not solve the issue. Removing temporary Drafts files and rebuilding the Drafts index did not solve the issue. The issue originally appeared to be related to AVG, but later tests showed that AVG is not the main cause. If the automatically inherited attachment is removed from the forwarded message and then manually dragged again from the original email into the draft, the draft can be saved without problems. Changing forwarding mode from Forward Inline to Forward as Attachment solves the issue.

Conclusion: This looks like a Thunderbird issue with automatically inherited attachments in inline forwarded messages. The first draft save works, but on the second save Thunderbird seems unable to reprocess or resolve the inherited attachment and shows a misleading access rights error.

We would appreciate any advice on how to further troubleshoot or resolve this issue. If this is a known bug, we would also be grateful for any information regarding a planned fix or available workaround. We are happy to provide additional information, screenshots or perform further tests if needed.

I have 3 email accounts which i unified. when log in I get prompted to enter password for all three accounts which I do, then I get prompted again to enter the password to all Password Manager to save my passwords which I do not want and therefore I uncheck it for all three; I then get prompted again for all three which I enter password, then I get imap login error on my main account which I click cancel a few times before it goes away,

I use Thunderbird portable. How do I fix this issue. it should be that one enters the password for each account once not three to four times. I do not want to use Password Manager to Save my accounts.

Also if ever I have to change password how do I do that? thank for your help.

I have the portable version, download from portable apps website.

On upgrade to 152.0, a pop-up asked for options I have not seen before. I cannot find info about what the net.thunderbird option is, nor why I would or would not want to click it? Any help out there?

Thanks!

My old Win 11 laptop died. So, since I had an SDD adapter, I removed SDD drive from the old laptop and connected it to my new laptop.

- I had already set Thunderbird on the new laptop so I have an existing profile. - I was able, using the Import tool, to get my address book successfully transferred from the old profile. - And while the old calendar name appears in calendar pane, I don't see any of my appointments. - I tried create placeholder calendar, then deleting all the other calendars and retried but still no luck.

I don't want to just copy and paste all the contents from old profile into the new profile as I don't need my old emails or email account data. So, what should I do? Thanks for any help in advance

I can send a message to one of my address book contacts without issue, but their replay always winds up in my spam folder. I click on "not" spam, but that does not resolve the issue. I do 'not' have an issue with any other of my address book contacts.

This has gone on for a while.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I imported an appointment into the calendar. I wanted to setup a reminder. The only option is "Show an alert". Is it possible to to create a reminder option other than "Show and alert"?
