Forum Thunderbird zajednice

Hi,

i started using Thunderbird on my Mac last year as i was experiencing issues with Outlook. I was very happy until now, as Thunderbird has a lot of nice functions that are easy to use. One of them is the integration of Teams via the Microsoft Teams Quick Access expansion. However, since two days this has stopped working for me. When i open the expansion tab, i get a message that "the browser version is not supported. Please download the desktop app".

Is anybody experiencing the same problem? Is there some kind of incompatibility between the versions that i am not aware of (both expansion and thunderbird are on the latest release version)?

If anybody knows a solution it would be really good. Thanks

Can I get an app or add on to my thunderbird email that tells me the email I have sent has been received and opened. An app or add on that does not require the person receiving the email to manually acknowledge the email has been received and read.

In other words when the email is received and opened I get a notification automatically.

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME

Is it possible to add different background colours to the three inbox folders I have now, please? I can change the colours of mail I send (via Composition), but not mail I get. It'd make it easier to prioritise work flow. I've found an old (2020) AddColors Add-On as part of the Unified Folders page but it's no longer supported and Firefox doesn't verify it.

On new computer. I went to Add-ons and searched for Imogies/Emojies, etc., but nothing comes up. I hoped to have the set I had as an add-on on previous computer (which crashed - had to start from scratch).

If anyone knows how to get it, I'd appreciate knowing. I loved using it.

(I know about "Win." - but that doesn't have nearly as many emogies as the Add-on.)

Hi, I'm following up on this thread which is closed- https://support.mozilla.org/bm/questions/1483264 It describes an add-on: "DefaultColumns" https://www.ggbs.de/extensions/#dc. I could not find verification of safety for this add-on. I reluctantly installed but it wants permission to my whole computer so I uninstalled.

To me, this functionality is a necessary feature needed in Thunderbird. It merely creates default columns for all new subfolders. Could someone verify the safety of this add-on, recommend a safe option or add the functionality to Thunderbird. Thanks.

Hello,

I'm having a problem moving messages from one folder to another. There's one message which will not move no matter what I do. I'd like to turn off QuickFolders so that I can determine whether it causes the problem. How do I turn QuickFolders off, and then when I'm done with my experiment, turn it back on again?

Please tell me, how to use composescript.register a compose.js file. Where I put it(popup.js, backgound.js,..). Because runtime.onnmessage at compose.js is not be called

Since the upgrade to Thunderbird 146, the plugin for Allow HTML Temp has been disabled. Following Find an alternative add-on button, I get directed to an upgraded version of the add-on 10.1.1, see screen clip, which states it should be OK up to version 147.

I had the same problem last time the upgrade was to Tbird 144 and Allow HTML Temp add-on was updated to 10.0.8. I followed up with the add-on developer who claimed it was Thunderbird is erroneously rejecting the add-on. They said "Thunderbird itself checks the compatiblity on add-on installation at AMO, where the add-on version 10.0.8 is marked as compatible up to 144 at the moment." I don't understand what the "AMO" term means. The developer sent me a modified version of their update, but closed the issue with "Not an Add-on Issue. Compatibility check on AMO failed."

It looks like the same problem is happening again. Can you please tell me if this is a problem with Thunderbird checking, or is it with the add-on? When will this type of issue be solved?

(I was also told by the developer that I might have changed some feature of Thunderbird from standard, but that is not true)

I often end up typing the same email response, over and over.

Is there a way to set up pre-made messages in Thunderbird, which are easy to select or migrate into my reply space?

Would also be nice if these pre-made response mssgs were separate from my in/out box accounts, so that if I change IMAP email provider, I don't lose the pre-made mssgs.

Recently moved to Linux Mint with Thunderbird 140.5. It's a new experience. Thunderbird has downloaded all my emails and folders from my Outlook.com account. Can send, receive, edit emails no problems and all is visible from Outlook client on other machines. Thunderbird does not show my calendar entries or contacts. I do not wish to import from Outlook as I would like to access my Outlook.com from several locations. Been through online Help articles. Nothing seems to work. Have installed TbSync and Lightning Calendar Tabs add-ons with default settings. I have tried suggestions provided in this Mozilla Support. Other forum suggestions don't seem to relate to the version I have.

I'm sure it is something simple as everything else I have done with my new environment is working wonderfully. Thanks in advance.

TOPIC 1 In Betterbird there is the option to colour the email account. The only option in TB is to change the colour of the email envelope icon. There used to be a extension that achieved this but fell by the wayside in TB 115 I researched this on TB forum on reddit.... https://www.reddit.com/r/Thunderbird/comments/17unvb1/different_account_colors_in_thunderbird_115/

It made interesting reading and I did download the 'account colours' zip to install and see if it worked. Only thing is that I do not know how to install it........can someone brighter than me tell me how to install it and to remove it if it doesn't work. Many thanks.

Bei jedem Öffnen von Thunderbird bekomme ich mindestens 200 mal diese Fehlermeldung angezeigt. ich habe mit Mail Merge gearbeitet, jetzt jedoch deinstalliert: Dennoch permanent die Fehlermeldung. Wie kann ich den Fehler beheben? Siehe Screenshot

Hello I want to use import-export tool and it is not possible now ? Please repair the function. thanks/CG

Moderator note (Denys): This question has been moved from the Firefox desktop forum to the Thunderbird forum.

Can the order of the sub folders in email account folders be re ordered. Is the add on "manually sort folders" still available? I there another method of doing this.

Background I am currently migrating from Windows to Linux/Ubuntu (finally). So I am a beginner in Linux (intermediate in Windows).

As part of this I need to replace my Microsoft Outlook. In Linux there are a few to choose from. For example: Evolution, KDE Kontact/KOrganizer and Thunderbird.

Aside from some compatibility issues with G-mail, I was overall happy with Outlook for the following reasons – which are also what I wish I could get out of, preferably one, or more, equivalent personal information manager programs (PIM) in Ubuntu:

• Calendar

- Absolutely ok. - Good overview and synchronization with other parts of Outlook - Stylish, useful and clear graphics

• Task function (To-do)

- Very good: 

- Shown in all views (email, calendar) - Good time division: Today, tomorrow, this week, next week, month, etc. * Great possibilities for setting up and designing your tasks (in everything from designing quite complex projects to graphic outline and layout) - Completed tasks are saved automatically and are very easy to access in a separate window (to the left of current and upcoming tasks), where all tasks are also searchable through the search function at the top. Very useful when you need a history of various projects/tasks, etc., that you have completed. For me, absolutely crucial! - Good synchronization with the calendar: Shown, for example, at the bottom of the Calendar for each day. - Quite stylish, useful and clear graphics

• Contacts/Address Book

- Also quite ok - Synchronized with other parts. - Stylish, useful and clear graphics

• Email

- Quite ok, apart from the aforementioned synchronization problem with G-mail - I completely abandoned IMAP and switched to managing all email online, which is an obvious deterioration: G-mail online is not the world's most intuitive tool for someone who handles large amounts of email with the administration and control needs that this entails. - Plenty of settings - Quite ok synchronization. - Stylish, useful and clear graphics

The version of Ubuntu I'm using is 24.04. It comes with Thunderbird. But only as an email client (no calendar, no To-do app, no address book, etc.). Which was a bit of a disappointment. It's a full-fledged PIM that I need.

So to start with, I tried Evolution. I don't want to say that Evolution is bad, but it didn't work for my purposes - and in many respects felt quite outdated. Maybe it would be possible to get more out of it if you explored and tested it more, but after a couple of weeks of evaluation, I set my limit. But I really liked that it was synchronized with the calendar that is included by default in Ubuntu (and which is accessed from the bar at the top of the Desktop): Everything you put in Evolution is automatically put in the Ubuntu calendar, and vice versa. Great when you want to quickly access this kind of information.

Right now I'm investigating Thunderbird. So I already have the email client (not yet tested, but investigated in terms of settings, etc., etc.). For this I now need the other mentioned parts (especially calendar and To-do) – and get them to work as described above.

Since there are such a lot of add-ons/extensions for Thunderbird, I find it quite difficult to navigate and confusing to find out exactly which add-ons/ extensions could correspond to the expectations/requirements I have for those, which I hope to be able to get help with here.

Regarding the calendar, the searches I have conducted several times have suggested the extension "Lighting" (https://www-archive.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/lightning/download), but based on the information I have obtained so far, I am unsure/doubtful whether this extension (which, if I understand the matter correctly, is in principle equivalent to the stand-alone application "Sunbird") will meet the criteria I have listed above. Especially when it comes to the Task function.

So the question is: Which extensions, corresponding to my wishes/requirements, should I choose in terms of calendar, To-do, and address book?

Or are my criteria such that there are no such corresponding add-ons/extensions at all?

Or is it better to download some other version of Thunderbird where all of these are pre-installed (and which meets my criteria)?

Looking forward to any answers that may provide some clarity. :)

I am trying to install an add-on to enable the transfer of large email attachments but, having tried to install a "selected" Filelink add-on, I receive a message that it cannot be installed as it is not validated by Mozilla. Please advise which add-on is accepted. Thank you.
