Thunderbird Community Forum

When receiving replies to an email sent to several people - I seem to now be getting the replies under only one of the recipient's heading, rather than from each person individually like I did previously? How can I make sure I get replies from each person individually?

I tried to create what I thought would be a backup of my local folders in Thunderbird on a new drive. Instead everything is now completely gone. My last backup was in July so I'm good up to that point, but is there anyway to get back the 5 months of saved emails? I'm guessing not and I realize I should have done a backup before changing anything. I thought I was creating a mirror image outside of Thunderbird. Thanks for any help

Dear All,

I am going to save my maild from IMAP INBOX.sbd to my new PC's Local folder. What is the most simple way to do it? I have Thunderbird 128.5.2esr and in my new PC there is ImportExportTools NG addon installed.

Thanks Peter .

HI ,

I hope you are all well. Yesterday i was trying to send our yearly email to our customers , for the first time though, we are not allowed to send any further emails since yesterday.

Could you please let me know how this could be resolved as we are a bussiness and trying to send a cristmas email ?

Thank you in advance.

Kind regards Konstantinos Zervos

1. When I start Thunderbird, the first thing that comes up is the "misinformation" "No message found". Only some time later is the inbox with the new messages displayed. The initial "misinformation" is annoying.

2. When I open a message, I have to constantly click backwards until I get back to the inbox. Why is there no button for this?

Please reply to delloc@gmx.de

Kind regards Dirk E.

I'm not sure but westnet have thrown me to "messaging company" that I now have to pay for and that may have caused a glitch to the works It was OK yesterday maybe I should be patient and wait for the morrow

Installing my Gmail's address book should i import it? should i use my Gmail address? to identify the address book? for example: When writing an email i must type the recipient's email address. Thunderbird is not referring my gmail's address book.

I would want to be using my personal address book that is in Gmail.

Gmail is already sync'd to Thunderbird and appears to be functioning correctly except for the above issue. thanks for any guidance, DW

I have downloaded an update from Thunderbird about a week ago, and since then I have been unable to send emails. when trying, a box appears that tells me i MUST ENABLE AUTHENTICATION TO USE THE EMAIL SERVER? My provider ,SLINGSHOT.CO.NZ cant seem to help at this stage. I did find while searching Thunderbird that the recent down load w as not completed,why, I dont know. But I desperately need Thunderbird to get my outward mail operating. Thank you, J. Tresidder c/o-email. --johnnyripper@slingshot.co.nz.

A few days ago my wife clicked to open an email and the whole Thunderbird page changed so that it is now almost un-usable. I tried using the program that allows you to recover to a previous day with no luck. In frustration I saved the email file from profiles, uninstalled Thunderbird, rebooted then downloaded a new copy of the software and installed it, no luck, it opened with all my emails in the same almost un-usable configuration I can still receive email from a webmail program but it is slow and frustrating. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Bruce

I had a defective hard drive that was replaced. I lost the profiles that I had previously on the old hard drive (Except for the profiles from a year ago). Is it possible to reinstall Thunderbird as if it was a completely new program, link it to Spectrum webmail, and recover all my emails still on Spectrum webmail. and also create a new recreated profile. Thank you.

I have three email account in Thunderbird, two are AT&T (bellsouth.net) and one is gmail. One of the bellsouth emails is VERY slow, reading and deleting, but the other two emails run very good, no problems at all with reading or deleting. I have read through many many similar but not quite the same questions in the forum and I have tried every one of the suggested things to try to fix this but it is still a problem. Any new suggestions?

I see it as Thunderbird hijacking the resources of my computer to run Firefox and take me to the donation website. I'm fine with the request for money in the Thunderbird screen, I can navigate away from that. Don't open programs other than Thunderbird before I require them.

I have Thunderbird 128.4.2 (32 bit) on Windows 10 Home (64 bit). I want to add a second email account. To do this, I used File> New> Email Account. I entered the email address and password. TB found and entered a server configuration. The new email address appears in the Folder List but has only an Inbox folder after it. The other folders (Sent, Junk, Trash) are missing. Test messages show the new address in TB will send a message correctly except it hangs trying to save the sent message. The new address is unable to receive a message. Please advise how to get the new email account (outlook.com) set up in Thunderbird. Thank you.

Hi. I've recently lost the ability to have a unified in-box. I have five e-mail accounts, all of which are IMAP accounts. In addition, with the recent thunderbird upgrade my windows 10 pc client has moved each e-mail account around (up and down) and I can't figure out how to change the location in the left pane or otherwise order / align the e-mail accounts. Any assistance appreciated.

Recently my outgoing messages have started being directed to my Local Folders sent folder and not retained in my email account sent folder? Is there a stting to correct this

I don't seem to be able to get threading to work for me in card view. I have downloaded the add on and i am still having challenges. Can you help me understand what i am missing?
