Thunderbird for Android Community Forum

With my Pixel 9a Android 16, I installed TB Android mobile by the export/QR code method. The settings were imported into the phone from my desktop, Win 11 TB version 147.0.1 and yahoo.com for my email service. I went through setup successfully, however, when I tried to sign in I receive an error: Oauth sign in failed. Oauth is currently not supported with this provider. Retry does not solve the problem. On my phone the settings are: Server is: pop.mail.yahoo.com Security SSL/TLS Port 995 Oauth 2.0 my user name @yahoo.ca These are the server settings on my desktop as well. Next step in the setup is to "Sign In". I immediately get the "Oauth not supported with this provider" error. I tried IMAP, same error. Under Oauth 2.0 there a pull down menu with: Normal password, Encrypted password or Client certificate. I'm not sure what these options are or if I can use them, ie with my Yahoo mail id and pwd. I tried IMAP server and got the same error. I'm hoping that someone can advise me as to how I get past this Oauth 2.0 error and finish installing Thunderbird for Android. Thank you

Hi,

Since updating to Thunderbird 140.7.1esr (64-bit) on Windows 11, moving messages from Inbox to any folder takes about 7 seconds.

Details:

Account type: IMAP (Cogeco)

Happens in all folders

Inbox has ~600 messages (not large)

Was working normally before the recent update

Delay occurs every time moving a message from Inbox to another folder

No freezing — just a delay before the move completes

No antivirus changes

Issue started immediately after update

This appears to be related to IMAP sync behavior introduced in 140.x.

Has anyone else reported this, or is there a known regression?

Thank you.

I believe since your last update, every time my phone switches a data provider, meaning goes from cellular data to my Wi-Fi or vice versa. Or if you go to airplane mode and then come out of it I get the Gmail authentication error. Every single time. I'm running Samsung Galaxy s23 running the latest version of Android 16. Has anyone else had this issue? I find it hard to believe that I would be the only one. It's getting really annoying having to keep clearing it or going in and then when you go into go through the settings it tells you it doesn't work. Any help would be appreciated.
