Thunderbird ver 140.0 (64-bit) on Windows 11.

Brand new, fresh installation of Thunderbird. - Added a GMail account. That worked. - I tried to add an account with my personal domain. I enter my name, the email account, and Thunderbird gets stuck in an unending loop looking up the configuration. - Other email clients have successfully looked up the config and did the setup without a problem. - The email account is handled via IONOS.com servers. - If you gave me a manual setup option I could handle it but there is none; TB goes straight into trying to handle it itself.

Any ideas?

TY, Frank

Hi Everybody,

version: 143.0.1 (64-bit)

I had an "activity" indicator on the very bottom of my Thunderbird interface. It would show that I was connecting to my ISP and indicate how many messages it was downloading, as well as show a counter.

Somehow, I lost that indicator.

Could someone tell me how to get it back?

May Thanks, Paul

Thunderbird performs a compaction. When it is finished the blue progress line is still showing on the bottom right hand side of the window.

You can select any folder and any view condition (read, all, tags etc) and no emails are shown anywhere.

• Restarting Thunderbird fixes the problem with no errors.
• This has happened a lot of times now and is consistent.
• If you force a compaction the problem does not occur.

Update: Usually, in frustration, I restart Thunderbird to fix the problem. This time, whilst typing this forum question, the problem resolved itself. I guess about ten minutes elapsed before the application righted itself. I will watch for the next incident and see what other information can be observed.

There is a way to store read email messages in folders. I have a list of them named beneath my in mail box. I can't find a way to CREATE another folder for a new affiliate. The way I normally store messages is press "more" and it gives me a list to send saved mail to. I need to include this affiliate in that list. Can you tell me how to do it, or am I maxed out on the list?

It's outrageous suddenly being locked out of mail box . It contains QC N° of locker containing a food parcel I need to pick up to day.!

I am 87 years old and do not understand what I am supposed to do!!

I want to send messages I delete to a Trash folder on my laptop, rather than the Trash folder on the server. Is there some way to do this? I'm looking at:

Server Settings > Security Settings > When I delete a message

This only gives me the option save deleted messages somewhere on the server.

(I have given up all hope of convincing Thunderbird to download all my messages, but fixing the Trash problem will make the program at least useable, from my POV!)

Thunderbird desktop is set to download all message regardless of age, but only downloaded about a hundred. I'm using IMAP. How can I download all my messages?

Also, how can I stop Thunderbird from uploading deleted messages to the Trash folder on the server? Do I just need to create a new folder in Thunderbird for deleted emails, something like "Garbage"?

Many thanks!

My Trash Folder has disappered, no longer appearing under my email account. I can access only: Inbox, Drafts, Sent, Archives, and Junk. When I try to create a Trash Folder under my email account I receive a message that I already have that folder. I uninstalled, then reinstalled, Thunderbird on the possibility that the program was somehow corrupted, but I still cannot see, nor access, a Trash Folder.

Just installed Thunderbird 143.0.1 (aarch64) on a new Macbook. First email account set up OK, although I can't remember how. Tried to add a second account, and cannot find a way to enter the password; there's no place to do so. This doesn't make sense. Machine is of no use if I can't get emails :-)

I'm able to add an e-mail account but when I go to add a second e-mail account, when it looks up the information, it just hangs with the circle going around.

This is true for two different user accounts on the same computer.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird but it didn't help.

Thunderbird can't be exited without killing from the task manager or shutting down.

I somehow have two account names, one name is gmail(IMAP), the other just gmail. Messages appear duplicated in each folder but deleting from one does not delete from the other. The gmail(IMAP) is currently the default Identity. Can I just delete one and if so which one should I delete? Thanks for the help

I have lost the toolbar on the new messages page. The toolbar that allows you to change fonts, resize, bold, italics, underline, and more. I have looked for hours to find out how to restore this toolbar. Can anyone help me?

Running into a strange issue where the welcome message page does not go away when clicking between messages. I already attempted to remove the message pane all together. (F8) but nothing seems to make it go away. Usually upon launching Thunderbird it will show the welcome message but will go away when navigating between messages.

When I attempt to add an attachment, sometimes Mozilla crashes. This happens several times a month. Windows 10 Home "File Explorer" pops up & I can be scrolling and it will crash Mozilla. Other times I am selecting the file to attach & it crashes. I am at a loss as to why. I'm using the latest version & "Send later" is my only add-on.

Dobrý deň, mám dlhodobo problém s pridávaním nového emailu v thunderbirde. Pri nástupe nového zamestnanca vždy vytvorím nový email cez websupport, a následne email pridám do aplikácie thunderbirdu v počítači. Vždy to išlo bez problémov, ale teraz keď sa pokúšam pridať nový email, zadám názov a adresu, prebieha konfigurácia a ďalej nič nenačíta. Nechala som to konfigurovať aj hodinu, ale nič sa nestalo. Aktualizácia thunderbirdu je aktuálna.

Vopred ďakujem za odpoveď.

Good morning Is there a way to set up my own preferred default column layout to one that suits me I have 40+ folders and changing every one on new install and when updates are issued is a real pain I am on release 143.0.1 (64-bit) Many thanks John

Need help setting up my domain name with godaddy and Thunderbird email client. need to get DNS Records from godaddy also. Having more trouble with this than I should, I think. I have already setup an email account on Thunderbird with earthlink/mindspring and icloud. No problems at all, in fact, both were very simple. But no so much with the domain name and godaddy. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

I have a new PC and want to copy my existing filters on to my new PC. I have 116 filters set up and do not want to have to manually add them. I tried exporting my profile from my old PC but it is 38Gb
