Yesterday I updated thunderbird to version 128.2.0esr. Since the update, notifications of new incoming emails do not appear to me even though I have display notifications checked in the settings please help me with this issue

I tried changing the authentication method to OAUTH2 for my Outlook live mail account (POP). For that, I had to change the server name to office365.com. After restarting Thunderbird, I was able to download new messages but all the old messages already stored in Thunderbird disappeared, even though Thunderbird still shows the same old Local Directory as being used.

How do I change the authentication to OAUTH2 & get my old messages back?

If I delete & again create the Outlook live account, would it effect my old mails/filters ?

I have been using TB on OS for years and have 4 email accounts set up - 3 IMAP mail servers and 1 POP mail server. I am using TB 115.3.2(64bit) on a mac OS 14.6.1. A recent power outage caused my mac to shutdown and since then, whenever I start TB, I am asked to enter a password for the POP account. I cannot figure out what password is required here. I have entered every password I can find for the POP account but none are accepted. At one stage I was asked if I wanted to reset the password and I entered a new password and selected to have the Password Manager remember it. This seemed to be successful but next time I opened TB, I was asked to enter the password again. How can I find out which password is required here? How can I store it so that it is remembered? I can login in to the POP mail server via a web page using the password I have for the POP account but this password is not accepted by TB.

I recently completely erased an extra old MacBook I have and installed the latest version of Sonoma (14.6.1) on it to experiment with. I then configured Applemail to work with my email provider (outlook.com), which went fine, but I'm really not a fan of the latest version of Applemail, so I thought I'd try Thunderbird (which I used to use years ago, and generally liked OK).

So I downloaded a fresh version of Thunderbird (v128.2.0esr) and configured it with my outlook.com account, which finished the authorization process without a problem. The issue, however, is that Thunderbird will not "see" many of my email folders. I have LOTS of stored email, organized into hundreds, if not thousands, of folders and subfolders. For some reason, about 75% of the folders simply don't appear in the Thunderbird folder tree on the left. I have no problem accessing them via Applemail, but Thunderbird just doesn't seem to realize they're there. The other 25% or so seem to work fine and contain all the messages I expect to be in them.

I've checked some of the folders to make sure that some slightly odd folder names (a few start with a hyphen or have a comma in the names) weren't causing issues, but changing the folder names in Applemail or via the outlook web interface does not make them appear in Thunderbird, and some of the folders whose names contain those characters DO appear in Thunderbird, so I don't think that's the issue.

If I create a new folder in Thunderbird, it appears in Applemail immediately. However, if I try to create a folder with the same name as a folder that appears in Applemail, the operation fails with the message "The current command did not succeed. The mail server for account ******@outlook.com responded: Folder name is reserved." in the Activity Manager window.

If I create a new folder in Thunderbird, then use Applemail to move some messages from a folder that Thunderbird can't see into that new folder, those messages then DO appear in that new folder in Thunderbird. So I assume it's not a problem with the messages that's causing the folders to not be visible in Thunderbird.

It really seems that Thunderbird is simply not iterating through the folder structure completely. Since the folders aren't appearing at all in Thunderbird, I have no way to select or deselect them for synchronization for offline use. Is there some way to view Thunderbird's internal retrieval of the folder structure from the server? I've tried restarting Thunderbird many times, including in Troubleshooting mode and clearing the startup cache, but they made no difference.

Any help would be appreciated! I'm liking Thunderbird's look and functionality, but I need it to access all my email or I will have to go back to Applemail, or, god forbid, try the Outlook email client :-(

Thanks!

Does anyone know how to correctly insert the image to the email signature? I tried serval different size and resolution but the email signature are too big to the email content. What is the recommend size and resolution for the image?

First let me thank you for a great app.. I have an issue I have been uable to resolve. When I get a new email message I receive the sound notification as it should, but then I continuously get additional sound notifications about every five minutes or so for the same email. This happens if I have not opened the new email but just have the app minumized and running in the background. The settings are pretty straight forward and I have looked at those several times. Perhaps I am missing something in the notification settings. Is there a way to stop receiveing the multiple sound notifications for the same email. Thank you for your assistance, Marty

Running Thunderbird 128.2.0esr (64 bit) and whenever I move an e-mail from the inbox to an archive folder, it disappears from the inbox but does not reappear in the archive folder. Just started doing it today 9/12/24.

I can't seem to update my Thunderbird mailing lists. I know how to do it, and I go through all the steps to add an address, click "OK" but the mailing list remains unchanged. And when I try to create a whole new mailing list, it lets me do it--that is, create the mailing list--but there are no addresses in it. I attach a couple of screen shots:

First, before I hit OK. Second, after I hit OK.

This has been going on for at least a few months. I thought an update would help but it didn't. Please advise how to fix this problem.

Thank you.

Thunderbird suddenly quit receiving emails although my Mac alerts that one came in, but it's not there. Also it has deleted thousands of emails. I just don't know what to do. I have tried a few things from the internet to no avail. please help.

Thunderbird V115.13.0 (64-bit) With mail sorted by date = descending & unsorted (my preferred setting so newer messages are at the top of the table list) When there is an email with a file that I detach and save then selected/highlighted message in the inbox moves "up" to a newer message vs staying with the same message

With mail sorted by date = descending then when I detach a file the highlighting remain correct on the same selected message

Very annoying as I keep having to select/move down the message

In the old Thunderbird version, I could click on GO TO and select NEXT UNREAD MESSAGE and it would take me to the next unread e-mail. That option appears to be gone now. How can i do that with the new version?

Just recently I'm getting a message that says my IMAP quota is at 75%, but every six months I move older messages stored in folders to Local Folders on my computer, to avoid using too much storage on the Thunderbird/Mozilla server. I don't know what else to do to avoid losing access to my email. Thank you.

Using Quick Filiter, I am trying to find a way to filter on two different fields at the same time, using different search terms for each field. For example, I would like to filter the messages in a folder so that I see only messages from "Jack" with subject contains the word "Thunderbird". I have not been able to find a way to do that using the Quick Filter bar. Is there a way to do this using Quick Filter?

I know I can click Edit > Find > Search Messages and specify multiple criteria in the Search Messages dialog, then click Search, select a found message, and click Open in Folder. But the Search Messages window does not have a Preview Pane, and I'd rather filter the messages in the message list, scroll through the found messages, seeing the preview for each messages as I do.

As a Thunderbird user and supporter, I have never had this current problem. I have two PC's this one running windows 11 version 128.2.0 (64 bit)and the other running Linux Mint. However the version on Linux is 115.13.0 (64 bit), and does not have the issue. Both pc's have one add-on for google email, calendar, and contacts. to stay in sync. In trouble shooting I have disabled the extension's.

Before the update to 128.2.0 I could scroll back a month and open any email coming to me. However in this version I can only go back 6 days of messages. The 7th day and older will not open. On my Linux Mint system with 115.13.0, I can go back years and open any message.

Is there a new setting that changed all this? I was under the impression all messages were saved to my local drive and not pulled off the Google server. 73's Ed

Hello, I've been using thunderbird since 2013, and have never had as many issues as I have this year. I reinstalled Thunderbird (uninstalled with revo uninstaller so nothing stayed), and then installed the latest version fresh. This seemed to smooth out most of my issues, but I haven't been able to solve this one..

I use Thunderbird because I have multiple email accounts to monitor and like them all in one place. The latest problem that I am having is that my "sent" email is showing up as giberish (sometimes.. Not every email, and not always on the same account).

My system is Windows 11 Home 64-bit

I will attach a screen shot of: 1. My current version of Tbird 2. The email that displays in Tbird 3. The email that displays in Gmail

Thank you in advance! -Eric

Thunderbird and Windows 11 both updated yesterday or today. In several archive folders, messages since about a year ago are now missing. Is there a way to restore to the folder contents as of about 24-48 hours ago? Inbox, Deleted, etc do not seem to be affected.

My Thunderbird just upgraded to v128.2esr Nebula

I was using Cards view and it was nice, but it seems the Cards just got wider vertically. They used to be 2 lines of height, and now they are 3 lines.

As I understand, the 3rd lines is only used to display "X replies", but I use the "Unthreaded" sort option, so the 3rd line is always empty for me, and takes more space for nothing.

As you know, vertical screen estate is limited with our 16:9 screen, so please give us an option to reduce the cards view vertical size (or have it automatically remove that 3rd line in Unthreaded view)

thanks
