Ok people who actually write this program. It is possible that you are not guilty of this, but I am seriously suspicious. Your recent auto update automatically either ERASED my email messages and/or automatically changed the storage folder, or just changed the folder.

And :I cannot remember where I was putting them before to try and recover anything. Somewhere on my terabyte D drive because my C drive was full.

Any ideas on how to my messages back?

Lost in email

Your latest request for donations has evidently come with a forced upgrade which I did not authorise. I have been happily using an older version of TB because it supports my add-ons and themes. Now because of your uninvited intrusion they no longer work. Furthermore it seems that I can no longer download an older version that supports my requirements. NOT HAPPY!

have this issue since yesterday. can not send or receive emails. i verified the incoming and outgoing servers but it is like thunderbird is not connected to the internet. i checked the working offline is not selected and still have same issues. not sure how to further trouble shoot this. the computer i am using has internet and no issues reaching any browser.

Hello,

I have saved thousands of emails over the time in several local folders. Near 8Gb of emails with their attached documents. The local folder is in a Synology NAS in my local network.

I was trying to retrieve some of the emails saved in that local folders and found that I couldn't read any of the saved emails. I could see the list of the emails in all the folders but when clicked in one of the emails of the list, nothing was showed.

By saving all the files to the computer, I can read again all the emails. Never happened that it was a problem to read from the NAS. I could see a status bar in the bottom of the window showing the progress in the loading and after a short while, the email and the attached files were shown and loaded.

My local network seems to work ok and also the Synology.

So, my question is, has anything changed that blocks the reading of emails from the local network? Any idea on how to have the emails stored in the NAS?

Thanks

You are 'sorting' my email and I am missing important items. Please remove this sort option from gailw.DRShop@gmail.com and let me decide what is of primary importance and what should remain in date order in my inbox.

I can't quickly find a way into my Thunderbird emails since they stopped putting an email icon on the opening pages. Why did they do that and how do I get into my email quick enough to verify my identity in everything else?

Greetings

After updating to 140 (release update channel), IMAP folders keep downloading all emails in a folder, even though the vast majority of them are already local. I get the message "Downloading message x of y in folder" and it goes folder by folder, some of these folders have a lot of mail so this can take ages.

I do have a lot of folders and emails, I have tried compacting and searched for weeks, and only very old and not exactly this issue, any ideas?

Hi, I wonder if anyone has had a similar problem - since a few days I get an immediate SMTP timeout in Thunderbird for some mail servers but not all. For Outlook the same server works just fine. Version 140.0.1esr has recently been autoinstalled. It is possible that the problems started when that version was installed but I am not sure about the timing. The email provider has no explanation and claims there is no problem on its side. Also, Thunderbird has recently asked me to confirm a server certificate for receiving emails. Usually when that happens I also get asked the same question when sending emails, but this time I did not get the question for sending, I just get the timeout message.

Thanks,

How to Fixed it

Thank you

We keep getting a box with a message of put in a password to imap or something and we can't reply to emails. It works on my husband's laptop at his office but not the home computer or hhis laptop at home.

Mozilla previously released Thunderbird on Flathub. However, the version of Thunderbird available on Flathub does not support Arm64. As a result, many users rely on the built-in repositories of their Linux distributions to install Thunderbird. Unfortunately, the Thunderbird versions provided by many of these repositories are outdated. Using outdated versions poses security risks and does not meet modern security standards. I believe Thunderbird should provide an Arm64 build on Flathub so that users can more easily access the latest version of Thunderbird.

Bonjour,

Je rencontre un problème au niveau du password. En effet, sur un ordinateur thunderbird ne veut pas garder en mémoire le mot de passe que l'on renseigne en cochant la case gestionnaire alors qu'on arrive bien a s'y connecter quand on utilise nos outils internes.

Pouvez me dire si c'est un bug et comment le ressoudre svp ?

Trying to figure it out myself givr up. tracked to server settings not configured right? SMTP got this message a little while back,,,sending of the message failed. Unable to aiuthenticatrto outgoingserver(SMTP.COMCAST.NET. Please chech the passwordand verify. (don't know exactly how to do that) the authentication method in account settings/ out goingserver SMTP. 07/10/25 I have so many thingas messed up in there. I'm 79 and losing to this new technology

Thanks for any information you can give me.
