System saw updates and the next time I tried to open T-bird, it crashed. I tried opening it in a konsole window and it crashed immediately. Looked like this:
$ thunderbird [calBackendLoader] Using libical backend at /usr/lib64/mozilla/extensions/{3550f703-e582-4d05-9a08-453d09bdfdc6}/{e2fda1a4-762b-4020-b5ad-a41df1933103}/components/libical-manifest Bus error
Not finding much about it. Really struggling to find a replacement app.
Would appreciate any help.
Thanks.

I would like to know if I can set up a Thunderbird account to have an SMTP server with a different username and password than the IMAP server did. I want to use a bulk mail-sending service to send emails, but point to a different mailbox for receiving. I can see where there is the possibility for configuring a different username for SMTP than for IMAP, but I cannot figure out if I can set a different password also. Thanks.

I would like to create an account which specifies an SMTP server but no IMAP server. Is this possible?
I have an account on a service which provides only outgoing (SMTP) service. This account provides no mailboxes (IMAP, POP). I'd like to use Thunderbird for sending messages through this service.
Does Thunderbird let me configure an account which only specifies the SMTP server, but leaves the IMAP service empty?
If not, then will it allow me to specify an IMAP account from one provider, with an SMTP account from another? (In which case I would use one of my other underutilized IMAP accounts, just for the sake of having something valid there).

I need to print an E-mail automatically as it come into the inbox with it specific Header or Subject. How do I do this with the filter as there is no option of action to "Print" after the Filter have been matched ? Also can I just print only the body/contents of the e-mail without the Header or Subject or anything else ? Many Thanks!
Undo/Redo Function for Thunderbird

With the most recent upgrade for Thunderbird, I find myself having a reoccurring problem with the Undo function. When I am composing an email and hit undo, it does not undo the most recent word typed/error, but instead deletes large chunks of the email (for example, the entire paragraph I just composed). I have lost up to 5 minutes of work this way, and it happens on a regular basis, meaning I've lost a lot of time to this glitch.
This would be less of an issue if I could then just hit "Redo", but when this glitch happens, Redo is not clickable, meaning the work is lost permanently. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas as to how to make it so the Undo button only undoes the last word? Or how to fix this problem in other ways?
Thanks!

This only occurs, so far, from one contact multiple times. I can see the email via Outlook online. When I go to View then Text Encoding and click on Unicode (which already selected) the message appears. When I then go to another email and back the � reappears. Also, when I click on Unicode to make the message appear, $)C , precedes the message. Example: $)CHello Peter,

At random times, TB freezes (with "Not Responding" msg.) If I wait 65 to 75 seconds, it always "unfreezes" and I can continue working. However, this slows down my productivity (I run a small business), so it would be nice to be able to fix this. My system is a newish (6-mos-old) ASUS desktop computer with Windows 10. My email client history: started with Eudora about 20 years ago and migrated to TB eventually to TB. Currently running latest version 45.3.0. I have hundreds of mailboxes and about 100,000 emails saved in them. Maybe TB freezes because it is somehow compacting or sorting them? I don't know. Apart the temporary freezes, TB works fine.

I don't understand how two different computers could have both achieved full inboxes for Hotmail at the same time and deleting thousands of messages and compacting several times does not alleviate the full condition. I have gotten my inbox down from 3.8G (it may have been 4 or more when I started) to 3.2G. Is there some threshold that must be reached once the "inbox full" message is received? If so, what is that threshold? One of the community posts stated that they had gotten down to 1.8G with no relief. I continue to see new messages in my inbox in Hotmail's website but not in Thunderbird where one computer is stuck in 9/11 and the other is stuck in 9/5 because it was powered off for several days. It is suspicious that both hit the problem on the same day, the day I powered up the second computer. It probably occurred before that but I would not know of its existence until the second computer was brought online.

Using windows 10. Thunderbird and Firefox both operating fine. Allowed a Windows update and neither would open. Both gave a message to close since another instance was currently running. Clearing error message made no difference nor would restart of OS. Restoring system to point when they did open made no difference. Corrected problem with Firefox by changing profile. Thunderbird still showing error message. Windows auto update happened and then Thunderbird no longer showed any sign of opening although Firefox continued to work fine. Installing Thunderbird Beta update made no difference. Uninstalled Thunderbird and reinstalled with no progress. Cleaned registry and ran anti malware utility without any positive results. Have tried Thunderbird P and other suggestions. Nothing helps!

Not sure what triggered a recent change: either a Thunderbird update or a change to my IMAP server password. I used to see all my IMAP folders on Thunderbird - now I only see the standard folders: Inbox, Sent, Junk, Trash, Drafts. The folders still exist on the server, but don't show up on Thunderbird. All the folders are marked as "subscribed" on the server.

Have created a New List in TB Address Book. Some 100 recipients. On sending I get an error message saying that a particular address has been rejected. It appears that the message was then not sent to the other 99 either. Is this so, if so seems a design flaw? If there a workaround for this? (In fact, the rejected address is perfectly valid and a message sent separately goes through without problem).

I recently moved from a Mac running 10.5.8 to one running 10.10.5 and updated Thunderbird (now 45.3.0). It used to be that when I "deleted" an e-mail from my inbox it went to the Trash folder marked with my e-mail address and stayed there until I "emptied" the trash. Now it just disappears. If I drag the message from my inbox to this Trash folder it stays there, but when I then right-click on this folder there is no "empty trash" command. If I delete from a local folder to the trashcan marked "Local Folders", the message stays there until I right-click on the trashcan and use the "empty trash" command. The instructions for "deleted messages" in "server settings" does not help, as the "move it to this folder" command does not give me an alternative of moving things to the "Local Folder" trash. This is maddening because I do occasionally delete a message by mistake. Is this Thunderbird or my e-mail provider? Do I need to set "move it to this folder" to "Archive" and then delete the contents of "Archove" every day? Thank you for any help.

Hi,
All my google calendars have been working fine during the last few years, but now, I do not manage to synchronize them. I keep getting a blank popup instead of the Google login/password page... I am using Thunderbird 45.2.0 and Lightning 4.7.2 (well, icedove and iceowl under Debian)
Here are the tests I have performed so far, with no success:
- I have tried to unsubscribe and re-subscribe to my calendars, - I have removed the stored passwords, - I have toggled the value of calendar.network.multirealm, - I have started Thunderbird with an empty profile (removed the whole directory in $home),
The only log entry I get in the console (nothing before I close the google login popup) is:
Error: [calCachedCalendar] replay action failed: null, uri=https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/<email>/events, result=2147500037, op=[xpconnect wrapped calIOperation] Source File: file:///usr/lib/icedove/extensions/<...>/calendar-js/calCachedCalendar.js Line: 327
But I guess this is only the result of closing the (blank) popup with no credentials.
I have also configured the same calendar accounts in SeaMonkey 2.40 and it is working just fine (the credentials popup shows the google login page)...
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks in advance,
