I got a new PC with Windows 11. I installed Thunderbird 136.0.1 , activated the private calendar, and entered events there. For events with a reminder that have a specific duration (e.g., Wednesday from 10 AM to 11 AM), I receive notifications. However, when I create a full-day event and want to be reminded, for example, 1 day before, I don't receive any notification. Additionally, events with a reminder are not shown in bold in the calendar overview (whether they have a specific duration or are all-day events). Can you please help me?

I am currently using Thunderbird as a client for a Gmail account. I am trying to add another one but get a message: "server already exists". How do I add the second email account?

Two questions:

1) My TBird v115.18 (32-bit, Windows 7) no longer allows me to get emails from the server. This just started today (7/17/25). I get a message that says there are no emails. The emails download properly on my Windows 10 PC with the latest 64-bit program. Is there anything I can do or change that will restore that function on my Win7 PC?

2) Is there a 64-bit version that will run on a Windows 7 PC and perhaps solve the problem in #1 above? If so, how can I get the proper 64-bit version? The latest TBird 64-bit will not run on Windows 7.

Thanks for any and all help.

I accidentally deleted a gmail account from thunderbird but I cannot reinstall it. If I go to new account, put in the user name and email there are green ticks. When I click on continue I receive a green tick and message 'configuration found in Monzilla ISPDB. But when I click on continue it takes me to what looks like google. The top of that page says 'enter credentials for xxx@gmail.com on imap.gmail.com. Below that is https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/32050?hl=en and a message to check the Monzilla support site for instructions. And the Monzilla page says 'waiting for authorisation in loginpopup' and a blue circle goes round and round.... Help!

I’m running Thunderbird 128.6.0esr (64-bit). I’m trying to export my address book in csv format. I tried to follow these instructions: Start Thunderbird In Address Books Select address book (not 'All Address Books' as it is a virtual search and not a true address book) Tools > Export Choose where to save Save as either: Comma Separated *csv files OR LDIF Click on 'SAve' However, I not finding the option to save as *.csv file. I get abook.sqlite file, but I can’t open file. What app do I use to open file so I can get a *csv file to I can export to use in Outlook. Thanks, John

To ensure I didn't lose a draft message while composing, I selected the message in my Drafts folder and through the sub-menu, did "Copy To" my Inbox. Now ALL messages in my Inbox are labeled with "This is a draft message".

This appears to be a bug that was fixed many years ago but has resurfaced. Please provide a method to correct this situation and squash this bug again.

Hallo,

ich habe das Problem, wenn ich mit rechtsklick->Gelöschte Elemente->Papierkorb leeren dieses nicht ausgeführt wird. Die Nachricht wird nur gelöscht wenn ich sie einzeln entferne.

Hello, I have recently been unable to create new messages in Thunderbird. I am currently on the latest version, 139.0.2 (64-bit). There is no Create New Message Button, and Control + N does work either. I am also now getting a lot of extra information in the Header Pane. Refer to the Screen Shot JPG. Thanks, Graeme

I have just installed Thunderbird 139.0.2 and I am no longer getting event reminders. How can I restore the capability to have the event reminders displayed?

Fixed this event reminder problem: checking the settings box to "Show missed reminders for writable calendars" enabled Thunderbird 139.0.2 to open the reminder box to show the event before it is going to happen, as well as showing the event after it was going to happen. Never had to explicitly do this with previous versions of Thunderbird in the 20+ years I have been using the Thunderbird calendar.

I know this worked in the past and lately, it doesn't anymore. I have multiple domains and many email addresses coming into my account. There was an extension called Virtual Identity, which would fill in the From field with the Original email address that the email was addressed to.

This was no longer needed because the feature was added to the base code. It worked for years and in the last year or two, it stopped working.

For ex, the email was sent to bob@ex.com, but my account identity is fran@frog.com, when I hit reply(all) it should fill in the FROM field with bob@ex.com, not my account identity. This used to work great, but now it just fills in the account identity instead.

To rule out old settings, I started fresh and it still doesn't work.

I do have “Reply from this identity when delivery headers match:” set to *@ex.com and it still doesn't work.

I am currently running 115.18.0 on linux, but this has been over many versions now.

Did they kill this feature?

Thanks.

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, My Thunderbird email has stopped downloading emails from my server. I click to download emails, get a message saying "downloading 1 of 25" but no progression from here onwards. No messages are downloaded. I have made no changes to the settings and it has been working well for many years. wifi is connected.

Thank you for help to restore this.

The last few days I am unable to send emails as I get an error message which said there is a SMTP error - I have checked it & cannot see what the problem is

I was also unable to receive emails for a day or two but that has now corrected itself

Have used Thunderbird for many years and would like to continue but this problem makes it impossible

I would like to donate but don't want to when this problem exists as it makes it un-useable

Any help much appreciated............Elizabeth
