As messages are stored in my inbox at my gmail address, there is no need to have them downloaded to my computer. It just wastes storage space on my hard drive. I only use this program to send messages. What needs to be done in the settings to keep messages from being downloaded to my computer?

I have MANY years of emails stored in LOCAL and I keep backing them up and copying them from my desktop to my laptop. (they would go to my phone and tablet too if there ever became a tbird for Android). As you might imagine MANY of those years are rather static and only the ones for THIS YEAR gets any change - AND I do it my own way since I don't like any of the few options the ARCHIVE function offers and even there my only location choices are on my mail folder (the server) or my one LOCAL folder. IF I had a second local folder I could keep the more static archived folders there and STILL have the power of using TBIRD to read and search them and only have to backup and move the smaller folder around (I have LOTS of stuff I move around like this and my 128G SD card is getting pretty crowded!!). Yes, OF COURSE I could export all the old stuff - but then accessing and searching would have to be done as a separate operation outside of TBIRD using other tools.
Having a option of multiple LOCAL folders (NOT!!! subfolders of the ONE local folder) would allow many interesting capabilities.

I'm generally happy with Mozilla and want to use Thunderbird as my email client vs. Outlook, which is a nightmare to maintain. I currently have a server and email located with Yahoo! on top of which Outlook rides. I was going to ask my question via chat, but could not get that up and running. So first thing...
How do I reconfigure chat? I can't get into the chat room to ask my question. I used IRC, rather than Google Talk, but I'll use any chat that works.
Second, and this is the fundamental problem: I just bought a Samsung Galaxy S5 smartphone and I want to run an app on that to contain my contacts--the same exhaustive contacts I've been maintaining for years on my Outlook 2007--I want that contacts app to directly access my email client on the smartphone, in this case I'm hoping the Thunderbird app. Here's the main deal: I want to be able to add a contact to my Thunderbird app on my Samsung AND have that contact added to my Thunderbird running on my PC... and vice versa.
Outlook and Yahoo! and all the others, including Thunderbird on the smartphone, which seems be called Blue for some reason. It's all very confusing and what I want should be very easy to accomplish. Everyone on television and in the movies seems to be able to sync up their smartphones and PC contacts on the fly, why am I having a problem even ADDING a contact record to my smartphone email client?!!!

PS: Oh, by the way, I'm currently paying Yahoo! $20 a year for its pro service, so I'm happy that if you can give me the functionality that seems like it should be so routine, I'll gladly donate $20 per year to the Thunderbird team.

Kubuntu Linux 14.04.5 Thunderbird 52.1.1 (64-bit) Most of my email accounts are behaving normally, but a few of them will not get marked as read after I read them. I do not use the reading pane, I open each one. The setting is checked to be marked as read immediately on open. All accounts are pop3. This profile was migrated from Kubuntu 12.04 recently and the accounts having issues are new email addresses that were just added to TB. I compact folders regularly as well as delete messages often, and I don't have more that a few hundred messages stored in TB. I am able to read these messages over and over without them getting marked as read, I actually have to manually mark them as such. Any ideas?

Yesterday, I deleted all my MSF files to try and fix a bug. (It didn't work, but that's a matter for another thread.) Ever since then, Thunderbird has been continuously tying up an entire core of my PC (13% CPU usage in Task Manager, the highest I've ever seen a single program get) which has my PC's fan blaring constantly.
I assume it's re-building a search index, which is fair enough -- but where can I view any kind of log or progress meter to indicate how much longer this is supposed to take? I've only got about 50,000 messages; I don't remember it taking this long when I installed Thunderbird in the first place, I think it was only a few hours...
Also, is there any way for me to put a cap on how much CPU power Thunderbird uses for whatever it's doing right now, just so I can get my CPU fan to stop making so much noise, even if it means it'll take longer to finish?
(For that matter, can I just turn off the index altogether? Or maybe set it to only index the most recent 100 messages for each account, or something? I usually use the full 'search messages' feature rather than 'filter messages' if I'm looking for something older anyway -- do they both use whatever index Thunderbird is presumably spending all this time building?)
Also -- is it safe to close Thunderbird while it's busy doing whatever it's doing? Will the indexing be able to pick up where it left off or is it going to try to start from zero every time I open it?

Local Inbox saved search folders forgets settings in 52.2.0
I have 4 folders to search chosen for Local Inbox. These are the individual inbox folder from 4 email accounts. This way I can monitor all my Inbox email at one place. After upgrading to 52.2.0, two of the folders became unchecked (both are gmail accounts). After rechecking them and then closing/reopening TBird the chosen search folders were missing the 2 accounts again.

After updating to Thunderbird 52.2 it has started to act very strange.
At first all my mails and folders disappeared and then repopulated themselves. Now every time I open Thunderbird I can see that it continues to download messages I have already in my folder at a considerable cost to my internet usage and cap.
Occasional when I open thunderbird I see that all my messages and folders have disappeared again and after a few minutes it goes through the whole process of repopulating itself.
I think something has become corrupted but I am at a loss as to how to proceed. would it help to uninstall thunderbird and re-install again?

When I first open TB I get a message titled "Secure connection failed"
The Message then reads as follows:
live.mozillamessaging.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown. The server might not be sending the appropriate intermediate certificates. An additional root certificate may need to be imported. Error code: This could be a problem with the server's configuration, or it could be someone trying to impersonate the server.
If you have connected to this server successfully in the past, the error may be temporary, and you can try again later.
The following in in blue which would maybe represent a link: "Or you can add an exception...." which does not work as a link and there is no further explanation as to what one might or should do. Where ever this is coming from it is not very well done and leaves one in the dark as to what should be done. Vague
Additionally, this reporting mechanism needs to be able to use attachments. I could have attached the above text in a screen printout. Sorry did not move down the page far enough to see the "Add Images" part. This should be noted at the top of the page because one usually does not necessarily move to the bottom of the document to find more instructions. At least I don't. Would not upload the image I selected. Will try with Paint.
How do I get rid of this opening message that appears ever time?

I create emails in html mode. When editing the html text, the place where new text is inserted is frequently one character space to the left of the cursor and sometime an entire line above the one I'm working on. Is this a known bug or is it local to my computer? I'm using a newer hp pc running Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 11.
Sometimes I do not receive emails for a period of 3-4 hours when I know there are emails to be reveived...all connections otherwise do work at these times...
as above, and I did not intend on being "not nice" ????

I have created local folders and imported mbox to local folders. Emails are in the local folder. I created a new folder under my email (google suite) and need to copy the messages from the local folder to g suite folder above. I select all, go to message and copy to that folder. The emails start to copy, but only copy a few of them. I have tried copying again but that doesn't work. All the emails in the local folder still do not show up in the above folder.
