Hi, Thunderbirders -

Regarding the recent HostGator foreign-based DOS attack problem that resulted in having all my messages prior to 10/04/2024 wiped from my host account, I was able to download the entire Thunderbird folder, containing all these previous messages, from my office PC which was not online at the time of the incident, and which I have deliberately kept offline since:

C:\Users\User\Appdata\Roaming\THUNDERBIRD

Now I need the procedure to locate the older messages wherever they are stored in this folder and successfully download them (from 2017, so may have to do this in batches) into the current version running on my laptop, before I again attempt to login to Thunderbird from the office PC. Any step-by-step instructions would be greatly appreciated, and thanks again for all your suggestions so far.

FYI, the app itself is not infected with any virus - the messages were erased as part of the HostGator reinstall process, not a ransomware attack.

I just received an email in Thunderbird through a personal Gmail account. It was not want I was expecting, so I logged into Gmail and checked there. The messages were completely different, including the return email address, and the attachment - the attachment wasn't missing, it was a different document all together.

Dell desktop, Windows 10 Pro 10.0.19045 Build 19045 Thunderbird 128.3.0esr (64-bit)

Lost power yesterday in N. Florida. Turned computer on today. It installed Microsoft updates, rebooted, then did a cleaning by Microsoft and restarted. Took a while. Since then I am not receiving inbound EMails. Sent outbound EMail and got notice from Norton that I needed to validate certificate. Did that and sent EMail. My bottom bar says I am connected to my imap. When I click on download messages all I get is a brief message that I am connected to the gmail imap. But no EMails. Is that Norton certificate the problem?

 Your site says Email me when someone answers question. That won't work.

I have suddenly developed major problems with my email system on my Desktop.

My Inbox has been frozen since September 24th, why is this please? I am receiving emails through my iPad and Android phone.

I have just tried sending an email and the result was a warning my screen as below...

What is going on please?

You may contact me on 07803 927272.

When using MailMerge in Tb with Windows Excel as data source <{{xxxxx@xxx.com}}> always comes out corrupted. If putting just an email address in the "To:" box all works fine with {{xxxxxxxxx@xxx.com}}. If, as I normally need to do, I precede the email address with the clients name and thus add <................> to the address, the address becomes corrupted. If I do not add the lesser/greater signs the address is just added as an extra piece of text. E.G. {{Forename}} {{Surname}} <{{E-mail Address}} translates as Joseph Bloggs <"\"joebloggs"@sky.com>. Without <> it translates as Joseph Bloggs joebloggs@sky.com. All was fine when using Tb 115.15.0.

We just signed up for a Microsoft email account this weekend. Preferring to use TB, everything seemed ok as I was able to receive emails just fine, but upon trying to send emails, I continue to receive an error message saying "Login to server smtp.office365.com with username tom@callablefirst.com failed".

I have gone through many different troubleshooting techniques I read about in the community and here is a checklist of things tried:

1. Checked that IMAP is toggled on in 365 admin 2. Checked that TB is accepting cookies and no exceptions are listed 3. Tried changing SMTP server to recommended instructions from Microsoft and verified all settings are OAuth2 4. Enabled 2F Authentication 5. Used config. edit to clear out all existing OAuth2.scope files

I have downloaded a different email client- eM client and everything works fine sending emails from that end so I am convinced this has nothing to do with my password being entered incorrectly, but some unknown conflict that isn't getting resolved between TB and the 365 account. I prefer using TB but am getting to the point where this is taking a lot of time away from other business activities that need to get done.

I have my marketing guy trying to remotely help figure things out, too, but he is at a loss as well.

Let me know if you have any ideas, thanks, much!

Hi.

In previous versions on Thunderbird I could highlight all my addresses in my Address Book (100) and "drag" them into my To or Bc address fields.

However, now when I do this as I start to drag them into the email a "window" now appears and asks "add as attachments".

The only solution is to add them 1 at a time!

No, I want to drag all 100 in to my address field as previously.

Help please

This started yesterday. When I click on a message to open it, the header appears but no text. If I delete the message the header info remains in the open message area and I have to restart Thunderbird to continue. This happens on many messages, but not all.

Hi all, I am experiencing problems on and off with gmail, since the last update to Nebula a few weeks ago. At the beginning there was an error message, this morning they are empty, no from, no subject, no text.

I am updated with version 3.

Thunderbird used to work great before Nebula. I have repaired the folder in the past and it worked, although is a very time intensive process and my folder is quite big.

Please let me know if you have any ideas to help, thanks in advance!

Best,

Javier

I now get the message "Certificate for the mailbox is not valid for that server. Someone could be trying to impersonate the server and you should not continue". My provider tells me that the certificate is used for a number of emails. Any suggestions please?

I have a situation which I just can't understand how/why it's happening, but moreso, resolve.

I have an email account setup on my server which uses a filter to catch all messages that start with a specific word (let's say beagle) followed by any number of characters (numbers or letters which are permissible using email naming restrictions (eg 123, XYZ, 12398760, Xyate1238127) followed by the domain name, let's say beaglebiggins.co.uk (so beagle123@beaglebiggins.co.uk, beagleXYZ@beaglebiggins.co.uk, beagle12398760@beaglebiggins.co.uk, beagleXyate1238127@beaglebiggins.co.uk etc) and forward them all to a single account, we will use beagle@beaglebiggins.co.uk.

Got it so far? Good!

Now when an individual sends an email, we'll say jackosmith@simpleton.org, to any of the aliases, let's take beagle123@beaglebiggins.co.uk, the email is received fine, by beagle@beaglebiggins.co.uk. So far, so good.

Now in Thunderbird, and I'm presuming only Thunderbird as it works fine on webmail and Outlook for Android, when you click reply or reply-all this happens:

To: beagle123@beaglebiggins.co.uk From: jackosmith@simpleton.org

See what's wrong? No? Then I'll enlighten you...

When you click reply or reply-all, it should say:

To: jackosmith@simpleton.org From: beagle@beaglebiggins.co.uk

... the to and from fields are the opposite to what they should be.

I've seen people mention adding identities, but when you have an infinite number of emails, this is simply not possible.

Could someone tell me a magic trick or suggest an add-on that can resolve this for me please?

I do appreciate your assistance!

Please excuse misspellings and anything that may not make sense or cause offence as the medication I take can have an adverse effect on my mind.

Thunderbird kan nu wel ontvangen maar niet verzenden omdat het niet mogelijk is bij de uitgaande smtp server de optie OAuth2 in te stellen, die staat niet in het lijstje ?!

Hi, since some days i have an issue with the connection to my email provider Strato. I noticed that, when i delete a message from my inbox, it also has been moved from my webmail version in Strato. Which gives issues, since the provider is connected to several devices and programs. For private and business reasons i use both Outlook and Thunderbird on different devices. So, it is not wanted that the mail i handle in Thunderbird (looks like) being mirrored in action at the Webmail from Strato. As said, it lóóks like this happens. Do you know of any setting or way this causes this? I used the above method for many years and never had any issues. But since an update in the 1st half of this year, also due to IMAP settings i expierence issues. This situation is unwanted and Thunderbird should not create changes in my webmail from the provider. Please let me know what you need from me to see how this can be solved. thanks and regards Rob

- i've added pictures which shows the following: image1 Thunderbird: marked message in Inbox image2 Outlook: marked (same) message in Inbox image3 Provider Strato webmail: marked same message in Inbox image4 Outlook: message will be deleted image5 Outlook: message is deleted and moved to Bin image6 Provider Strato: message still in Inbox after resfresh image7 Thunderbird: message will be deleted image8 Thunderbird: message is deleted and moved to Bin image9 Provider Strato: message is deleted after refresh image10 Provider Strato: message is moved from Inbox to Bin

I have old email accounts that have a bunch of emails on them and the servers are no longer accessible. How do I stop thunderbird from trying to get messages on those servers and giving login failure messages?

Hello,

I have 50 folders in my email account in Thunderbird. They are actually folders for different accounts that are synced as IMAP folders for my account. I occasionally want to check the emails in those other folders, but I only want to be notified of emails that come into my main Inbox.

This is especially annoying on GNOME.

Any tips?

Thanks!
