Forum Thunderbird zajednice

I've been using Thunderbird for years without issues. A few weeks ago, Thunderbird on two of my computers, (a Win10 laptop and a Win11 desktop) stopped receiving email, but were still able to send it. After a couple of days, normality resumed and both computers were able to receive email again, without any corrective measures taken by me. However, about 5 days ago the same thing has happened again, but this time, the desktop has resumed normal function but the laptop has not. The error (both times of failure) is shown in the image. TB on the Win10 laptop is configured POP3. On the Win11 desktop IMAP.

Email works perfectly from web interface, and so I'm very reluctant to change the password on the server in case I get locked out of the web interface, but perhaps this might be the step to take? I uninstalled TB using RevoUninstaller to completely wipe TB from the computer, including any registry entries. Installed TB version 137.0.2. Still the issue persists. I'm certain that the account settings are correct, so the issue is a complete mystery to me as to what is going on here. I would very much appreciate any help to resolve this issue please.

I have been using Thunderbird for several years now and it gets email for 5 email addresses. Most of these have been doing fine but one suddenly (and silently) stopped getting anything about a month ago. I have checked the settings, not that I have changed anything, and that all appears fine. I can bring up the emails via my network provider and they appear there alright. I also have a Fire tablet and I can see them there alright. So what's going on? What else can I check? Regards, Roger

I am getting following message and unable to login in my email account beside reseting password many times. " Login to server blackzeroarabia.com with username info@blackzeroarabia.com failed." please advise.

A jpg atttachment no longer opens with right click. I have looked at settings, in files and attachments and have tried, open with photoshop elements, open with firefox, always ask, and save file. None make any difference. I can right click on the attachment and the menu says open, save etc. click on open and nothing happens.

Problems with importing a profile having successfully exported it. As the profile is larger than 2GB I couldn't create a ZIP file. Having imported the profile my historical emails are not showing.

I have been using Thunderbird since about 2004 or 2005. It used to be somewhat instinctive to use in comparison to the current version. That's about 20 years ago. It now seems to have a minuscule amount of instinctual usability. My question / statement is where is the Tutorial. Like many products including Microsoft, make what they think are brilliant "improvements," and what they primarily do is cause confusion, frustration, greater difficulty in using the product and for many a wish they fervently pray for: "I I want my old thingamajg back."

I hadn't used Thunderbird since February of 2024 - LAST YEAR. Currently it is unrecognizable from then. I had  been hospitalized with 3 stents, a pacemaker and heart valve, I'm back functioning and love life. However - It would have been simple to make a dozen short tutorials on enough things to easily do the basics. Pleading for donations and not making it simpler to use the product doesn't attract new users & make current users happier. I would be grateful if anyone can point me to some simple tutorial. In my opinion what Thunderbird offers is too cryptic for me to process, I hope my post is noticed by a "Solver" Don't misunderstand me. I liked using Thunderbird for these many years because it was incredibly flexible, usable, and partially simple & instinctive. Today few people have the will or time to spend hours poring through help sheets that are a challenge and confusing to use.

Would appreciate your help.

Hi, I have a weird problem on thunderbird. See pics: the incoming message number show me 10 messages but only 4 are visible. do you know how to repair this wrong number please? (last version updated) thanks regards

While looking for another setting, I noticed that a setting about how T-Bird handles spam mail. I have it checked. Today, I received a DOOZY of a spam mail, but Thunderbird didn't flag it. It was so obvious spam, as it asked for credit card, banking, automobile license! Also, the Subject asked to update payment info, but the From field wasn't that company.

Taskbar icon shows incorrect number of email. Question: Anyone else having this issue? Any fix? Today the Sent - my email address taskbar button shows 98 In Thunderbird I have only 2 new sent messages from 4-18 and none for 4-19. I have 9550 overall.

My Inbox on various days show 75 or 14 or 8 BTW I never get more then a few messages at a time so seeing 75 or 14 or 8 would never be correct.

I go to download and none show up. I have the number of Total message count already downloaded displayed and the number does not change. Any new message would also be in Bold.

I disabled the showing on the Taskbar and as an example when I go to check messages and it says 1 of 1 yet none show up.

I have even moved all my Inbox email to a subfolder and no new email will show up in the Inbox when the program says I will have lots. I checked my domain cPanel email and no new email either.

Anytime I use send a file to the email program or use any external process to set up an email from thunderbird, thunderbird will not send the email and a reboot is required.

I have set up my Gmail account to allow me to recall messages within 30 seconds. Of course, this works on the Web version of Gmail. However, when I use Thunderbird as a client, I do not see that capacity or option. Please advise.

I am using Thunderbird Nebula 128.9.2esr (64-bit) on Windows 10 22H2.

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.

Seems like every week Mozilla does a update to Thunderbird. Every time becomes another problem. Look at all the HELP issues on this forum. There is a old saying " (KISS)KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID" First my "TRASH" disappeared and it now it goes into the "JUNK" file. Then the "JUNK" icon disappeared and when customized back to the top it no longer worked. I had done away with the password having to constantly being entered EVERY time I to tried to receive or send or even look at a existing email already received. And NOW the demanding a password is back with the last weekly update. Now I am constantly having to put in a password that I deleted from the "SAVED PASSWORD" and no NOT have the blocked checked in the "Use Primary Password". I wish I could do a complete CLEAN REINSTALL OF THUNDERBIRD BUT EVERY TIME IT STILL SEEMS TO RECOVER THE PREVIOUS VERSION. Any help would be appreciated. ANYONE BUT THE ARROGANT ASSHOLE MATT FROM AUSTRALIA who think his insults is truth.

Went with a new ISP. Thunderbird was not working right. After spending hours trying to get it to work, backed up as instructed, uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version of Thunderbird. Still have problems but the main issue is not being able to send PDF files or even something scanned from my printer. The error message I keep getting is: "There is no email program associated to perform the requested action. Please install an email program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel.". I have gone into Default Programs, associated Thunderbird as my email client. Doesn't work. Went into Regedit and double checked that Thunderbird is my email client. Doesn't work. What do I need to do so that my Windows 10 Home PC, Version 22H2 can send PDF files. All other regular emails (in/out) work fine.

I have tried all the resetting of passwords and each item in the account settings ( I think I have). Each time when I test it says that the incoming server was found. Nothing about the outgoing server. I'm using Windows 11 and I think the latest Thunderbird version. I really need help to get past this. Further, when I attempt to send with "Control - Enter " keys, The error message uses the wrong server name.

How can I remove the distracting dashed border that sits in the margin of the Compose / Write window? See the attached graphic.

Is there a setting to remove it? Perhaps I can tweak the CSS to make the color match the background so it disappears?

I am only able to send an email by opening Thunderbird and selecting write.

If I try to attach a file by starting with the file > send to > mail recipient or try to trigger Thunderbird with an email address in a browser or start with a distribution list in the address book, all fail.

All produce the following diagnostic: "Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because connecting to Outgoing server (SMTP) localhost failed. The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections. Please verify that your outgoing server (SMTP) settings are correct and try again."
