TB is now asking me to compact my folders several times a day (probably due the large number of messages I deleted). When I select Compact, I keep getting the message in the title. Since I have 118GB available on my disk, I checked my profile and found that the Mail folder and all the folders below it are marked "read only". However, when I unselect the Read Only button and select Apply and then select the "this folder and all folders below it goes through the process but when I go back into Properties, it is still marked Read Only. I do have an inordinate amount of messages in my account folders that I know I must delete. I am unclear as to what else I can do.

Owing to a price rise in MS Office, I had been looking to move to free software. Unfortunately for email this isn't working. I have downloaded Thunderbird and have tried to transfer my Outlook data there. I started two weeks ago and on average believe the process has been running a few hours a day, for much of the time when I look occupying 0% of CPU capacity, and most of the time not rising above 1%. The import has been stuck at 33% for that time, which I assume means that it imported Accounts and Settings or Address Books quickly and is taking a very long time to import Mail Messages. (It imported the couple of month's worth on webmail quite quickly.) Likely this is owing to the size of the Outlook file, 5 GB. Does this essentially make the transfer impossible? For how large a file could Thunderbird do a successful import?

Emails appear correctly as delivered in Inbox pane, and can be opened, however when deleted the email disappears from the right side viewing pane but not from the Inbox pane. This leads to the next email being displayed in the right pane but the deleted email header remains higlighted in the left Inbox pane as if it was that email being displayed. This behaviour persists even in Troubleshooter mode. Troubleshooter mode did not start smoothly, telling me that Thunderbird was still running and required closing. I have reinstalled Thunderbird and the above behavour persists. The bahviour persists on my laptop only, not on a desktop with the same profile. The behaviour is quite disorientating, as emails that have been deleted continue to show up inthe Inbox pane unconnected to the email being displayed. One or two incorrect deletions have therefore occured. Picture below attached - the INOV8 email has been deleted. The next email appears in the right pane but the INOV8 email remains in the left inbox pane. When this eventually updates the inbox pane and display pane can be several email out of synch. Any suggestions?

Running Thunderbird 128.8.1esr on my Kubuntu 24.04 desktop. The server is at Fastmail. Beginning a few months ago, the Trash folder on the desktop no longer shows any messages. I can still see the messages in Trash by logging into Fastmail. Also, if I search the Trash folder from my desktop, I see the messages yielded by the search. I did try "repair folder", and rebuilt the msf file, with no result. So I have been waiting to see whether the problem will fix itself. As it hasn't I figured I would seek help here. Any suggestions for how to fix this?

What fresh hell is this (in the image)? The display is like this most of the time. Usually, highlighting text causes that part to be fixed but it doesn't last long. This in on Windows 11 and nothing seems to fix it. I've updated drivers and Thunderbird. I've scanned for system file damage. While there wer some corrupt files, fixing them has not affected the display problem. No effect. It looks like some characters are randomly changed to the background color.

I have recently been deleting some old emails from my Thunderbird account in my Windows 10 pc, prior to moving on to a new Windows 11 pc. Suddenly, all my email folders are still there in the left hand column, but when I click on the Folder, which perhaps says there are 400 messages, nothing appears. I have tried the Repair but that hasn't worked. I am an elderly lady (81), and have been using Thunderbird for many, many years, so I have saved emails from a long time ago, that I would hate to lose. I still hear the sound when a message arrives in my Inbox and the number increases by one, but no message? I'm desperately in need of some straightforward advice to solve this problem. The only way I can read new emails now, is on my new computer, or on my iPad.

TB 140.1.0esr The accts are pop/smtp not IMAP.

I was moving subfolders around using drag & drop instead of Moveto or Copyto. Several folders (along with contents including emails and sub-sub folders) were moved OK, but the last one I tried only moved the subfolder and its sub-sub folder, but not the email contents of these. Not sure what I did differently but It left the folders in the original location and created a copy of the folders in the new location, but both sets of folders are empty. Using the properties->repair on each of these folder sets did nothing.

There were only a few emails in the problem folders, and I have created an TB export file after the fact. Is there any way to directly inspect profile entries to see evidence of the missing emails or maybe other recovery steps?

I am having trouble with email strings. I am a retired academic who keeps in touch with long term collaborators. The same group of four discusses different topics. However, as far as I can see, the strings created ignore the different topics but recognise the group. So the strings are unwieldy. As importantly, these strings appear to remove attachments. So, if I want to find an email with its attachment(s), I have to look at the string, find the relevant email, close the string down, and find the original email which contains the attachment. I also find that I have to close the horizontal tabs for each email in the string. i don't know how to delete a string at one go. Perhaps I am missing a trick or two here? Chas

There is ONE SPECIFIC email message in my inbox that I cannot move, copy or delete. Whether I drag-and-drop or use drop down menu - same result. This is the ONLY message in all my email accounts/inboxes which has this problem.

Continuing the attempt to move or copy causes the drop down menu to ask me if I want to move/copy the message AGAIN - but it still does not move or get copied. Hitting "Delete" on my keyboard or clicking the "garbage can" icon in the drop down menu has no effect - the email remains in my inbox.

I am using Tbird 140.1.0esr (64-bit)
