I have recently closed my yahoo mail account, removed all traces from Thunderbird, but when I start Thunderbird, after a few seconds, I get a Yahoo sign in screen over the top of Thunderbird

I can not create a new email account for the email : info@ecomtehpro.ro. I have already an email account: office@ecomtehpro.ro. Please give me a solution to create the new email account. Thank you.

hi, i am trying to remove an email account from Thunderbird app that i added but the "Delete" button in account settings isn't working at all! when i click it nothing happens. i select the account but when i click the delete button nothing happens

Hello

I use Thunderbird (153.2 0esr) on a win 11 PC.

I have some POP email accounts with btinternet which work.

I want to change. them to IMAP accounts using the same email addresses.

Before I do this I have several minor problems within Thunderbird, which I would like to sort out before copying the Thunderbird files as a backup.

Rather than list them all, it's possible that fixing the first may solve others.

When I open Thunderbird I see this message... see FIRSTCalendar if it hasn't been inserted into the text

I have never (knowingly) used BT's calendar. Clicking cancel removes the report and does not stop any of the BT mail accounts working.

I tried using the username and password of the default account but password of the default account without success. At a later stage this appears...

See SECONDcontacts if not inserted here

The address displayed is one that I have deleted from my BT Email account.

It is no longer shown as one of my BT accounts in the email management page in MYBT or in Thunderbird

Again, clicking Cancel does not stop my BT email accounts working.

Any suggestions how to fix this, would be welcome.

Cheers

Dave

How can I change an IMAP server on an existing T-bird account after T-bird deleted the saved password and IMAP server for that account? I tried to change the IMAP server address for an existing T-bird account, but T-bird and/or my ISP deleted the saved password and IMAP server entry for that account, so T-bird cannot get incoming E-mails. I would like to add an/the IMAP server back to the account without deleting the account, adding all of its settings again, and waiting 6 hours for T-bird to re-download all of the most recent 10,000 messages in the Inbox and all of the 15,000 messages in other folders again. The SMTP server and its saved password are still in the Saved Passwords table.

After swapping to The Bat some years ago I decided to come back to Thunderbird again. So I installed Thunderbird 155.0.1 (64-bit) on my Windows 11 PC, and gradually re-created and connected the the accounts I had on the back. I also installed the ImportExportTools NG addon, then exported my emails from The Bat to Thunderbird. So far so good. However for some reason I created an account twice. There are both for the same GMX account, but one is POP and the other is iMAP. This mistake probably happened after a long session of setting things up and I just forgot about the first account.

I looked through the Thunderbird help and the answer most given was to the Thunderbird menu, select Account Settings, swap to the account you want to delete, and then press the large red DELETE BUTTON on the top level of its settings (next to the DEFAULT button). I've tried this and it doesn't work. There's no confirmation dialog (which is what I was expecting) and if I close and reboot Thunderbird the account is still there.

How can this be fixed?

when trying to restore/add a gmail account, all my account settings disappeared. Trying again to restore/add a gmail account, an error is showing 'Incoming server already exists' and I cannot connect.
