Since the Update, when i paste a Screenshot with crtl+v the Cursor position is infront of the Picture and not behind it. Everyday i post something in an email and start writing ( since that is how it has always been ) but then i see the picture move, since the cursor is infront of it. Couldnt find a fix so that the cursor is behind the postet picture like it used to behave. Can anyone tell me a fix or if this is an Bug that will be fixed?

Hi, I updated Betterbird 153.2. Now when I open Betterbird I get a box asking me to use betterbird for default actions for Custom Thunderbird Links. Should I accept??

Could this be why I can no longer get yahoo.com mail?

De specificaties van mijn beide te laden e-mailadressen zijn al jaren niet gewijzigd. Toch probeert Thunderbird of er een server imap-new moet worden gezocht in het geval van hccnet mail. Vreemd is het dat Thunderbird af en toe ook zonder problemen alle e-mailberichten laadt. Het is dus soms goed, maar ook dikwijls fout. Na het opnieuw installeren van het programma Thunderbird treedt het probleem af en toe weer op.

Someone suggested BetterBird would be better for me than Thunderbird, but I'm not sure it was the right decision. They said I should be able to just open Thunderbird and it should work as they have the same base code, but it doesn't. Any ideas? I have 8 email accounts, so I'd hate to start from scratch.

Trying to send short obituary notice to about 40 classmates. I want them all to see all the email addresses. SEND won't work. Times out. How can I overcome this problem?

Since updating to TB 153esr from the previous esr, I occasionally get a server authentication error with imap.gmail.com. Most often they happen when first starting up, but occasionally seem to happen at other times. They seem to be transient as gmail works fine otherwise.

Just wondering if this is a known bug?

I have Thunderbird 154.0 (64-bit) on Windows 11. When I opened Thunderbird this morning, it originally gave a message that the connection to the email server had failed. Before I had time to look into this, it downloaded a number of emails without headings and sometimes without text. However, Thunderbird on my Android phone, I discovered subsequently, had downloaded all the messages correctly. The problem seems to have now corrected itself for subsequent emails, but is there some way I can force the download of these previous incomplete emails? Also, this is a very recent update to Thunderbird - I think it was installed in the last few days. Is it a problem with the update and is it likely to occur again?

Hello - I've been using Thunderbird email for several years now. No issues until recently, and I'm trying to determine if it is a server issue (Charter/Spectrum) or my Thunderbird email program (my husband is having the same issues on his computer). We've made no changes with settings; we did take advantage of a recent Thunderbird update that we downloaded about a month ago. Anyhow, we are having problems downloading/opening email, in addition to sending. Error messages include "Login to server mobile.charter.net with username cinmazz@charter.net failed", and "Server mobile.charter.net has disconnected. The server may have gone down or there may be a network problem." I contacted Spectrum about a week ago - they initially said it was a problem with their email app, and they were working on it. It began working properly for a day, then stopped. I contacted them again, and they then indicated no problem at their end, but they would look at the issue again and resolve by 9/7. It appears it might be a server issue but want to make sure it is not with my email program. Any suggestions for this not very tech savvy person will be helpful - thank you!

I have Thunderbird on laptop. I make changes to a contact in the address book and they seem to be made. When I close Thunderbird and restart it, all changes are lost and are back to what the contact information was before. This has to be fixed.

Dear Support Team,

I hope you are doing well.

I am currently unable to access my email account redacted@sunnyholidays.am as I cannot recall the password. Unfortunately, I have also been unable to recover the account through the available recovery options.

Could you please assist me with resetting the password or provide instructions on how I can regain access to the account?

For security and verification purposes, you may contact me through my secondary company email address: redacted@sunnyholidays.am.

Your prompt assistance would be greatly appreciated, as this email account is important for our daily business operations.

Thank you for your support.

Kind regards,

Gayane Vardanyan Director Sunny Holidays LLC redacted@sunnyholidays.am redacted@sunnyholidays.am Yerevan, Armenia

Good afternoon

I have been struggling to find some messages specific to specific dates and spend an awful amount of time tryomh yo access the correct one.

The solution proposed is a bit unclear to me, as it refers to "future folders". I need to unthread all my messages. Is this possible?

Thanks

PS The only version number i could find was for Firefox. There does not seem to be one for Thunderbird.

I have two email accounts, one is showing 5% of 100GB and the other is showing 94% of 3.9GB. Why the large difference? I cannot find anything about there being a Quota nor was I aware there was one when I signed up or if this is correct how to get a larger quota. Any advice appreciated please. Mike

When I try to print a PDF attachment it comes out as a blank sheet. This used to work OK. The print preview is fine. I have altered the settings to open PDFs in acrobat as a workaround. Any help appreciated.

Outlook.jpの個人アカウントをThunderbirdで使用しています。 IMAPは outlook.office365.com / 993 / SSL/TLS / OAuth2 で正常に受信できます。

SMTPは smtp-mail.outlook.com / 587 / STARTTLS / OAuth2 で送信すると、 535 Authentication unsuccessful, SmtpClientAuthentication is disabled for the Mailbox. と返されます。

smtp.office365.com / 587 / STARTTLS / OAuth2 も試しましたが、こちらは接続タイムアウトになりました。 MicrosoftアカウントのOAuth2認証と2段階認証は完了しています。 Outlook Web版・新しいOutlookでは送受信正常です。 Microsoftサポートには問い合わせましたが、Thunderbird側へ確認するよう案内されました。

この状態でThunderbird側にまだ確認すべき設定がありますか？ それともMicrosoft側でSMTP AUTHが無効になっている状態でしょうか？

I have successfully setup and installed Tbird on my new Windows 11 computer. Now all I need is to recover my contacts from the old computer's Acronis 2020 backup. How to do that and/or what specifgic file to search for and recover. I have attached a jpg of the Acronis screen.

I have a lot of saved emails--how do I look up or determine how much storage space these emails are taking up? John thdtgog1118@outlook.com

When replying to an email, I type the first line of text in the text field and then paragraph (carriage return) using the ENTER key. This causes the first line of text to disappear. This has been happening all day today, several times. Closing and reopening Thunderbird does not solve the problem. Rebooting the device does not solve the problem.

I have two Charter/Spectrum email accounts (domain is charter.net) set up via IMAP in Thunderbird (latest version) on Windows 11 Pro (also latest version, August 2026 CU is installed). They no longer update; at the moment I see no email in either after 8/27/26 around 5:00pm EDT. Confirmed via Web access there are emails after this point (a couple dozen at least, in each account).

Most recently I've tried repairing the Inbox mailbox for both. No help. Because I did that, Thunderbird now shows no emails in my Inbox even though it'd had hundreds of them before.

Note, I'd noticed the same problem a week ago, had tried fixing it at that time by removing both accounts and adding them back. They worked for a few days but then stopped working again on 8/27 as noted above.

Another oddity: If I go onto synchronization settings (right-click on account name then Subscribe), it shows no folders available to subscribe to. The folder list is empty and the Refresh button is grayed out. It shows it looked up and connected to mobile.charter.net at the bottom of the dialog, so I'd expect it would have retrieved the list of IMAP folders, but apparently it got nothing. And it refuses to get anything.

I assume I can remove the accounts and add them back, but why should this be necessary every few days? Seems bizarre. Thunderbird used to work with these accounts very well but now it seems to have blown up. Who decided this is how IMAP works?

I'm running Thunderbird 154.0 setup with my primary gmail account. If I add a second gmail account and receive email from there, when I reply to that will my response appear to be from my primary or the new, second gmail account?
