Thunderbird Send message Error Sending of the message failed An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: Must issue a STARTTLS command first. For more info, go to https://support.google.com/a/answer/3221692 and review RFC 3207 specifications. ffacd0b85a97d-47aa0f2186bsm33992962f8f.36 -gsmtp. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again.

Note: I could not find the suggested specifications as indicated in the error message!

I did not change anything, the sending error occurred suddenly , all my settings IMAP Mail Server Port 993 SSL/TLS OAuth2 and SMTP Port 465 are still set to default. I changed also the SMTP to an new shown default 587 but non of this settings resolved the problem

Thunderbird 152.0.1 Mac

After sending on one of 4 accounts in Thunderbird (Sky Mail), the "Filter Complete" modal will not shut down.

Cancel will override.

I am using Thunderbird for my emails since gmail will no longer support my business emails. I was able to access my sent emails up until April and now I am no longer seeing sent emails show up in the sent folder. Please provide easy to follow steps for this. I need to be able to access my sent emails.

None of my sent emails are accessible. When I go to the sent folder after sending an email, the emails are not there. Same with deleted emails. When I go to that folder, they are not there. Why is Thunderbird email so overly complicated? I think I need a better email provider. I am only using it because gmail will no longer support 3rd party emails (for my business.)

Good afternoon,

We are experiencing the following issue.

I work as a Technical Support Engineer at a large company in Russia. All of our branches use Thunderbird as their email client.

Approximately three weeks ago, we started receiving reports from users that their email was no longer working.

After investigating the issue and trying to identify the root cause, we have not been able to find a permanent solution. We have already tried the following:

1. Completely clearing the cache, rebuilding the mailbox while preserving emails, and allowing Thunderbird to re-download all messages. 2. Changing the `mail.server.default.mime_parts_on_demand` and `mail.imap.mime_parts_on_demand` configuration settings to `false`, clearing the Trash folder, and restarting Thunderbird. (This only provided a temporary fix.) 3. Reinstalling Thunderbird and creating a fresh client installation. 4. Using the **Repair Folder** and **Compact Folder** options for every mailbox folder. 5. Several other troubleshooting methods found online, none of which resolved the issue.

According to multiple users from different departments who are not connected to one another, they all describe the same behavior:

Thunderbird stops working for about half a day. Then it starts working normally for approximately 15–30 minutes, after which it stops working again for another several hours. During these periods, no new emails are downloaded, regardless of the size or content of the messages.

When checking the mailbox size in Exchange, it reports:

• 3.56 GB used. The quota is unlimited.

However, on the local computer, the Thunderbird profile folder (`Thunderbird > Profiles`) occupies nearly 9 GB. If we calculate the size of all mailbox folders within Thunderbird itself, the total is approximately 6 GB.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what else we can try?

Has anyone experienced a similar issue or found a solution?

At this point, our employees are unable to work effectively because email is a critical part of their daily workflow, and we have been unable to identify a permanent fix.

Login to server smtp-mail.outlook.com with username XXXXXX@outlook.com failed.

I am having this error I have tried logging back in, can download mail but not send any. Any ideas? Thank you

I have been using Duck for email etc. Suddenly I can not send outbound emails. Contacted Spectrum and was informed that Microsoft, Google, and Apple have suspended cooperation with spectrum. Because of this situation, Duck can not send emails etc. What can Mozilla do to rectify this situation and when? Mozilla is a great product. Thank you Jeff Herriman

I am trying Thunderbird with the intention of replacing MS Outlook. So, I'm using it alongside Outlook. This is happening with my Yahoo.com account. FYI - Xfinity migrated my comcast.com account to mail.yahoo.com, which has caused a lot of problems, as well.

Yesterday I downloaded 90 emails from my mail server. Only 5 of them were filtered correctly.

Upon reviewing the remaining 85 emails, I observed that many of them "should" have been filtered. So I opened up the Tools - Message Filters and applied the filtering to the INBOX file.

Almost immediately, all 85 emails disappeared. They were not in the Trash folder, nor were they visible in any other folder or mail box that I could see.

It was recommended to apply the "repair" to the INBOX which I tried; However, all that happened was 318 older emails that I have processed a few days before reappeared in the INBOX. Which interestingly would not sort by the date indicated for the email; they would only sort by subject and sender.

It was further recommended to close TB, and delete the INBOX.msf file. Which I did do. In addition, I also restored the INBOX to the previous days file using my daily backup files. That file shows 101,076 kb of info contained in it.

I reopened TB to find once again nothing in the INBOX, and when I tried to re-run the get msgs aspect, the result was the system telling me there were no email messages to collect.

Yet I know the same 90 emails are still sitting in the mail server system.

Why did this happen?

Where did the 85 emails in the INBOX go to?

Why isn't the set of 2200++ email filters not automatically filtering all emails once they are collected, and distributing them to the appropriate email file folder / mail box?

What recommendations are available to help me resolve this situation and prevent it from happening again?

Also, I have a txt and html file of the 8 Jul 2026 filter report. Why can't I upload said files along with this set of information? Why are attachments only restricted to image files?

Thank

Hi David This is the last attempt I did but it failed. Enclosed is the screen shot you have asked for. Keep in mind my WIN 10 has 64 Bit but the last update from Thunderbird was 32 Bit

When email downloads from my internet server to thunderbird how do I indicate that the message is to be deleted from the server. ie I dont want the message to be in two places . At the moment after reading the email and saving it to a folder I have to log into my internet provider and delete the email.

Locked out of my emails since Feb 26 2026: [redacted] @hotmail.com [redacted] @hotmail.com [redacted] @hotmail.com

/edited email from public community support forum.

First my email providers web site works perfectly. I called them and double checked the proper settings. I can download my emails no problem. I disabled my antivirus program, and I have tried all the suggested settings and still no send. I installed Betterbird used the same settings Spectrum said to use for thunderbird and it sends and receives no problem so what's wrong with my Thunderbird?

la messagerie ne reconnaît pas le serveur pop3.free.fr sur une de mes adresses email alors que la seconde adresse fonctionne sans problème et ce sur mon ordi

Neither my wife nor I can access email on our respective PCs. This has been the case for four weeks. We can access email by our Android phones, but we really want to use our PCs. I've tried to resolve the problem and failed. Previous to this failure, I had an account with BT but this was transferred to EE. When I attempt to log in to my mail account, I receive the message "Could not connect ... :the connection was refused". I can also add is that in my Account settings, Outgoing Mail server I see a message "Connection to server mail.btinternet.com:465 failed."

My computer was hacked a month ago, well... I got phished when I was sent an email that looked like it came from a client, it was a bit premature to receive a file from her but... it was very late, I wasn't at my best, and there it is. I always thought I was savvy. So. I did catch it in time to save my Google account and they didn't succeed in getting at any money, did lose my longtime alt-email address. My computer tech was able to restore most of Thunderbird, except for all my client information (18 years' worth), which I theorize is because the bad file was filtered into my client folders so those 2 main/many subs were deleted (or it could be because those client folders and a couple others missing were near the bottom of the folder tree and the tech guy's backup program failed at that point, he did try again but no luck). Fortunately I still keep a paper schedule so I was able to figure out who to talk to, and the autofill feature of TB was able to give me most of the emails I needed. [I have since learned about and have moved my Profile into my Documents in a separate folder so that my cloud backup picks it up every day (idrive). I really think it should be a LOT LOT easier to find and utilize the information on the Profile because EVERYONE should be backing that up every day, and the best way is to automate it. [My tech guy (re)installed Windows 11 Pro, I had Home by preference, have a tutorial from a trusted source about going back to Home without losing anything, because I do not need or want the architecture of Pro. But not doing that until I get my computer stabilized.]

All that said, to get to the point. When I collect email in TB (I have a gmail account using POP into TB as I do not like syncing and use TB to track), I usually have more than 200 emails at a time before I d/l into TB. Several times each d/l session, I get the following error message (header is cut off, it just contained my email address):

<<Unable to write the email to the mailbox. Make sure the file system allows you write privileges, and you have enough disk space to copy the mailbox.>>

I have write privileges and there is plenty of disk space. I press OK and the d/l continues for a few more emails and then stops. I then press F5 again to start d/l again. Several times a session. There is no information about which folder isn't there or what is missing or causing the error.

It appears to me that the filters are telling TB to filter into a now-nonexistent folder. I did reconstruct my client folders, but plenty of room for error there I imagine (I use QuickFolders and that actually told me which of the visible tabs no longer existed). My old laptop died in the process of all this so no longer have another version of TB as a guide. I have 367 filters (been using TB since Eudora went away), but they are only searchable by name of filter, not by possibly now-missing folders.

1. I assume that this error only means the email isn't filtered, it doesn't mean it has been deleted or anything. yes? Or am I totally wrong about the meaning of this error message, and if so, please help! 2. What can I do to fix the error? With 367 filters, it would be nice if there were some way I could figure out a way to know which filter is failing, if indeed this is a filter problem?

Thank you for any input about this. I have tried and tried to figure this out.

All best wishes, --Victoria
