Hello Development team, I am a long-time user of the Thunderbird e-mail client, having used it since it was Netscape Communicator. I have suffered from many upgrades that did not work well with my style of communication. However, the disappointing upgrade events using TB have been well overridden by the successful use of the overall e-mail client. Today’s topic is the latest upgrade, 140.0.1esr. The message page in dark mode shows darker links and text than it did using the add-on (Dark Mode). I have lost the ability to control text colors and the link status colors. I do not want to wander into the Config Editor to try and correct the linking status with a custom CSS entry. I have discovered the switch on the message panel to disable the “Dark Message Board”. I don’t like this method. I prefer a dark background and the ability to customize the message and link status colors while reading my messages.

I have an e-mail in my TB in-box. The mail contains a hyperlink to Facebook. When I click on the hyperlink, I get the message copied above in the Subject of this problem. In almost all cases, if I re-click on the icon in the e-mail, the re-click takes me to the desired URL in Firefox. My Thunderbird is 128.11.1esr (64-bit). Why is the first click producing the error message? Would there be anything in the TB Error Console?

I exported a group email list from Thunderbird, edited the list (primarily by adding new names) saved the result as a csv. When I imported the list, first off I was NOT able to import the list as a separate group within my personal address book which was really annoying. I found another thread at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1498090 where someone was having the same problem. So it appears there is no easy way to create an new group in Thunderbird under my address book

More importantly, ALL the email addresses I imported were mangled for example k_boreen@hotmail.com became k+AF8-boreen+AEA-hotmail.com

Fortunately, it looks like I still have the old addresses in addition to the ones I imported but it's going to be a pain to get rid of the mangled addresses

I'm on version 128.12.0esr

Been this way for quite a while now. Deleted messages do not show up in trash in 1 gmail account. Properties of the trash folder indicate that it contains 124 meg. In a different gmail account all is normal. Properties indicate the same in both gmail accounts. Asside from maybe deleteing/reinstalling the account, how can this be fixed?

Hello!

I just observed a new issue with S/MIME. When trying to send an encrypted mail to somebody new, I get an error “End-to-end encryption requires resolving certificate issues with somebody@example.com”.

The message is not very helpful, and doesn’t propose any solution. So a web search gave me this article: Prerequisite for sending an encrypted email message. It states:

> If Thunderbird considers the email's signature and the sender's certificate valid, it will automatically be imported and available when you attempt to encrypt an email to that correspondent using the S/MIME technology.

When I open the sender’s mail, the signature is confirmed as valid by Thunderbird.

Ignoring the warning message and trying to send the encrypted mail results in the following error in the log: `mailnews.send: NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE: Component returned failure code: 0x80070057 (NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE) [nsIMsgComposeSecure.beginCryptoEncapsulation]`

So, I verified in my list of certificates for people, and that new person didn’t figure in the list. Other people did, the last one from 6 June.

Is it possible there’s a bug causing TB to not import the certificate when I open the mail? What would a workaround be? Is there a way to import a sender’s certificate manually from their signed mail?

I try to access my messages from an outlook.com account with Thunderbird mac. I get the error message "the STAT command did not succeed". This happened suddenly today without changing any parameter. POP is enabled on this account. Moreover on another mac with Thunderbird everything is correct with the same account. Cookies are enabled I tried changing OAuth2 to normal and changing back. No sucess. What could I try next? Thanks.

Hello

Win 10 latest version, very old Dell Optiplex.

Background - Following a major corruption caused by a Win 10 update, I had to re-install a fresh copy of Win 10. I also had to re-install Thunderbird, and copied into the profiles a saved profile from a several months ago (later backups were lost in the same WIN 10 update catastrophe). Of course when I re-started Thunderbird, several hundreds of emails from the missing dates were downloaded from the email providers,

I have eight email accounts.

Now the left hand display box is weird.

My second most used account has empty, duplicated folders for Drafts and Sent, that I would like to delete.

Other accounts have a seemingly random list of sub-folders, some empty, some with one or two items in them.

The big problem is two email accounts' inboxes do not appear at all, and have probably been hidden away in the Local Folders Inbox.

Please help me sort out this muddle, so that there is a coherent list of all my email accounts.

While composing new message window and opening the attached pdf file to check whether right file attached (from email composing window) an error occurs pdf could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences, but, I can open the pdf files (same email or other drafted emails) from "draft folder, after sending and accessing it from Sent folder and even from Inbox folder " which have pdf file attachment, in the system adobe reader. But when I change in default program settings to - "view in Thunderbird" it opens in Thunderbird (opening from composing window too), but I need to view in adobe reader. Using Thunderbird 115.18.0 (64 bit) Supernova in Windows 7 - 64 bit. Any ideas or solution anyone have?

When you search for messages, you will see a preview of the text and any attached attachments. When I open the message, neither the text nor the attachment is displayed.

You may need to convert PST files to other formats to access, share, back up, or migrate your Outlook data more flexibly and securely. PST files are only supported by Microsoft Outlook—so if you're switching to another email client (like Thunderbird or Apple Mail), moving to a cloud-based platform (like Gmail or Office 365), or simply want a portable, readable backup (like PDF), converting the PST file becomes essential.

When I want to send an email I don't get my receiver's saved email address on my mail start

I cannot sign in or send an email it continuously asks for my password

It does not save my sent emails THE whole thunderbird is gone crazy I havent done anything, I stopped paying now because you are not providing any services anylonger

I normally can see emails sent out from my account, when I am replying to an email that is in my Inbox. I have just recently installed Thunderbird for Android, and when I view emails in my inbox, I still cannot see emails in the thread, even though I just replied to one of the emails in my inbox. Now Thunderbird does realize that I have sent an email--I can view my email in the Sent folder. But I cannot see that email in the email thread in my inbox.

This is strange; with other email clients I can see emails that I reply to (meaning, I get an email from someone, see that email in my Inbox, and then reply to that email). I can see those emails that I sent out, in my Inbox in other clients, but not with Thunderbird for Android.

Apart from that, I really do like the Android client. Is there any option I need to configure to allow me to view my own emails sent out, in my inbox? I checked the Settings but didn't see anything to switch on/off.
