Forum zhromadźenstwa Thunderbird

Hello dear forum Here are the details: Account type: Microsoft Exchange (via OWL) Antivirus software and firewall used: Bitdefender I have the following problem: I copied the mbox files from the active account (profile) to Local Folders (as described in some forums), both with and without *.msf files (seems this makes no difference to the problem). Then I start Thunderbird, and all folders and subfolders appear in Local Folders. However, when I go into one of these copied folders or subfolders, it only displays a single email. The copied folder is the same size as the original, but no other emails are displayed, and this is repeated in every subfolder. I employed the repair function with no result. The import/export tool NG only copies half of the emails. The total is 4.25 GB. I can only copy the emails manually via copy/paste, but this is very error-prone and takes a very long time. Has anyone had experience copying mbox files and managed to do it successfully? I would be very grateful for any advice.

My recollection is that prior to a recent automatic update to Thunderbird 140.12.1esr (64-bit) when I had a message composition window open, there were "SEND" button and possibly a "SEND LATER" button (to the left of the addressee and cc addresses in addition to the keyboard shortcuts (CTRL ENTER and CTRL SHIFT ENTER).

Following the update, there is no longer anything to the left of the addressee information. I have checked the toolbar menus, and there do not appear to be any button options. I can still send messages, but the lack of the buttons is a hindrance.

How do I add the thunderbird email app into my firefox links area? I can load gmail into it but I can not find the www stream to use to get to thunderbird.

Thanks.

I was forced to change email from Comcast to Yahoo Mail and hate it. Downloaded Thunderbird and connected my gmail address, but it won't accept my Comcast address, which I use on Yahoo Mail.

I believe someone got a hold of my email please help recover my account. It keeps crashing in not backing up. Thanks to who it my concern I'm losing a lot of data.

when I delete a folder which is showing in a light color, message states folder is undouble. I delete it but it re appears when I log back in. How can I permanently delete the folder?

I have been using thunderbird for years now with no issues at all. within the last month or so i started getting errors that my outgoing pw was incorrect. Then things seemed ok for a bit and as of today I just cant send anything at all. It will download mail just fine. But absolutely will not send.

  After checking all the settings, as shown below, and triple verifying everything is correct for the server and settings, ports etc.  I cant figure this out.  I have the exact same settings in my iphone mail and it downloads and sends mail just fine.  I can send an email from the phone and get it on my desktop through thunderbird, but i can not send anything back...  Both have had the same settings for years.  But the thunderbird app just decided it no longer wants to accept my outgoing password.  I have deleted the saved password within thunderbird and even after re entering it when the popup comes up, it just refuses to accept it.  I have a feeling this may have been one of the prior TB updates???
   Here are some images.  Can anyone help figure this out please... It's driving me bonkers

After upgrading from Mint 21.3 to 22.3, Thunderbird no longer offers me the option of setting email alerts for events. Details: - I have Provider for Google Calendar installed - I've tried adding my calendar as "Google calendar" and "On the network" but neither offers email alerts. (On the network works better for responding to invitations.) My current work-around is to go to the google calendar app on my phone and set an email alert after creating the event in Thunderbird. That works but is a pain. This worked before. I suspect it's more a configuration issue and less a Mint version issue.

Please help with the following issue when trying to setup new thunderbird email acct. I previously have been using thunderbird email acct. for about 15 years and just wanted to update. I am getting the following update failure : could not get OAuth2 for hostname = mail.comcast.net What do I do ???

Hello Thunderbird. I have used the product for years across Win95, Win7. I have graphics trouble with Win10 after an update last year. Some times the email text has strange colours and the odd missing character. Opening an attachment always has funny yellow or green chunky background. Zoom +/- cures this. See attachments. The display driver is AMD Radeon graphics. 504MB used. Single screen. The processor is AMD A10-9700 Radeon R7, 10 Compute cores. 8GB RAM The machine is a standard out of the box HP Pavilion PC 570. ON thunderbird no extensions or themes. Hope you can help! Thanks Mike

Subject: Thunderbird 152 – IMAP Junk messages are not automatically moved to Spam (T-Online IMAP) I am using Thunderbird 152 on Windows 11 with a Deutsche Telekom (T-Online) IMAP account. Problem When I manually mark a message as Junk (toolbar button, context menu or Junk column), the message briefly disappears from the Inbox and immediately reappears. It is marked as Junk, but it is not moved to the Spam folder. If I disable the option "Move new junk messages to:", the message remains in the Inbox and is marked as Junk, without the brief disappearance. Manual Move to → Spam always works correctly. Environment • Windows 11 • Thunderbird 152 • T-Online IMAP • ESET Internet Security • Only one Spam folder exists on the T-Online server. Troubleshooting already performed • Created a completely new IMAP account. • Verified Junk settings. • Verified the Spam folder path: imap://...@secureimap.t-online.de/Spam • Manual move to Spam works correctly. • Rebuilt the folder cache. • Recreated folderTree/folder cache files. • Performed IMAP resynchronization. • Tested with ESET mail protection enabled and disabled (no change). • Checked profile configuration. • Verified that the IMAP server directory setting does not change the behaviour. Additional observation The profile contains two IMAP cache directories: • secureimap.t-online.de • secureimap.t-online-1.de The current IMAP directory does not contain local Spam/Junk cache files, while the old "-1" directory still contains: • Spam • Spam.msf • Junk • Junk.msf Thunderbird also displays a greyed-out, inaccessible Spam/Junk folder which cannot be selected, subscribed or removed. Question Is this a known issue in Thunderbird 152 related to IMAP Junk handling or old IMAP cache migration after changing an account from POP to IMAP? If not, which log or additional information would help identify the cause?

PS: The POP account worked correctly before the migration to IMAP. The problem started only after switching from POP to IMAP. Rudolf.weinzierl-landshut@t-online.de

New W11 Pro pc, so new installation of Thunderbird. All profiles and folders moved over ok, but the Bin folder is an issue (main Gmail account IMAP). In my previous Tbird installation, I was able to right click the Bin folder, and be given the option of emptying said folder. Not now. The Spam folder does have the Empty option. Pics illustrate the folder list, what happens when I right click the Bin folder, and what happens when I right click the Spam folder, which does have the 'Empty Spam' option. I can highlight the messages in the Bin folder and delete them that way, but the right click option is shorter, easier... The only item I can find in the Thunderbird help pages tell me to delete the Trash and Trash msf folders in the profile - tried this twice, with no difference. It's a little frustrating... Any help would be welcomed, I guess I'm missing something really simple...
