I am using the latest 64bit Thunderbird with my Gmail account via IMAP. This is not happening all the time but enough to really annoy me. I get the notification of a new email. I click it and Thunderbird shows Inbox (1) but there is nothing in there. I click on another folder and then click on Inbox again, it shows. I have repaired the Inbox already. Is this a bug that has a fix I can use or is it a known issue that is not fixed yet?

I'll be staying with a friend whose ISP is Spectrum. Spectrum claims they have no idea what settings I need to change in Thunderbird in order to go through them to get to my ISP's mail servers. I'm assuming that there ARE settings that have to be changed because a few years ago, when staying with different friends in NY, I had to call their ISP (Verizon) to find out what needed to be changed in Outlook Express' settings. I no longer recall which ones.
On one of three machines, Thunderbird Linux password manager does not work; Windows 10 does

I have several machines that dual-boot Windows 10 and Linux openSUSE Leap 15.0. Thunderbird is installed on all machines for both operating systems. The two Thunderbirds both access the same profile on each machine. On all but one machine, Thunderbird works correctly in both operating systems. On the machine I most recently set up, Thunderbird works fine in Windows 10, but password manager is broken in openSUSE. Linux Thunderbird is 60.3.0 (64-bit).
In the faulty Thunderbird, all messages and address book are same as in Windows, but clicking Edit -> Preferences -> Security tab -> Saved passwords pops up a window with no entries. In Windows, doing Tools -> Options -> Security tab -> Saved passwords pops up a window with a list of a number of accounts with saved passwords.
In the Linux Thunderbird, trying to get messages brings up a password request box. When I type the password and do NOT check the remember password box, Thunderbird connects to the server and downloads new mail. In the password request box, if I type the password and DO check the remember password box, nothing happens: no connection, no mail, no remembered password.
I have compared all the Thunderbird settings on the faulty box with the settings on the machines that work right, and everything looks the same.
A similar issue was posted at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1234460, but there is no solution there.
What can I do to get the openSUSE Thunderbird password manager working on this one machine, like it does on the others?
Thanks, Howard

In the middle of an active TB session, hyperlinks stopped working. A link can be copied from TB to FF and opened but TB will not open FF or open a link when FF is already open. Also found that Help>Help Contents will also not open. I've done the following:
Verified that FF is the default browser
Checked network.protocol-handler.warn-external preferences with config editor. -default was already set to true. .ftp, .http, and https were set to false: i toggled them and set them to true.
Opened TB with add-ons disabled (safe mode0 with no change in performance.
Downloaded and installed a new version of TB with no change in performance.
So I'm out of ideas -- hope someone can help correct this problem. Thanks.

Hello I run a dive shop in the Philippines recently the IT manager resigned. Now I have a lot of issues with my computer systems. One being the emails which uses thunderbirds as the interface. Some of the staff use thunderbirds for there password reset email. A real problem as we can not access thunderbirds. It will not accept the password from ZOHO our email domain. I have control of Zoho and can change the passwords but thunderbirds will not accept the new password. I don't believe that the former IT Manager has access to ZOHO so I think that I can fix the problem by changing thunderbirds to another email interface. Any opinions please and how to cancel thunderbirds. Thanks in advance

I realize there could be other restrictions like users may not be able to have Local Folders on their desktop HD. And, that an Administrator may have to be created so individuals can't edit / delete addresses in ALL Address Books or Lists, but I've been using T-bird for over 12 years and it offers so many features and tools, I would like to recommend it to some of my Corporate Clients. It's so much cleaner and user-friendly than some other email software. I just need to know how to install, set-up, and describe how to use it within such an office environment considering potential network (multi-user) "restrictions".... or would this be a completely different version ie: coding?

After the update to 60, ALL of the emails I receive have the disclaimer "To protect your privacy, Thunderbird has blocked remote content in this message." So I have to click the Options button to eliminate this. Once I do it for an email address I am good, but with addresses I have corresponded with for years this happens. Why would the setting be changed and how do I get it back to being the old way?
Thanks.

Is there a way to use Tasks with a Google Calendar? It seems the only way to make a task is to make a separate local calendar.
Also, is there a way to hide a calendar in the Today pane without unchecking it in the Tasks or Calendar panes? I'd like to see multiple calendars in my Calendar pane but in the Today pane it looks very busy and I'd like to pare it down to the one relevant calendar.
Thanks!

When replying to or sending an email using Thunderbird, I'm able to fill in the recipient and subject but, when I tab to the message field the cursor isn't there and I'm unable to type anything. I can literally "send" the message with nothing in the body...it's just being unable to actually type a message. Any help would be greatly appreciated and I send my thanks in advance!

I can send email to my server just fine. However, I do an automatic forward via a filter to send to another email account. When it forwards it authenticates just fine to the server, it says sender ok, says recipient ok. The server creates a temp file and then sends a message back to my pc (354) to Enter mail. At that point thunderbird is failing to respond and the server closes the connection and terminates the session and thunderbird reports that it timed out with the server. Server closes connection after about 1.5 min
On sending a normal mail to the server, thunderbird responds to the 354 message and completes...

Since the update to Mozilla Thunderbird earlier this week, I have had issues with my primary email account. It is a pop account with Frontier, who uses Yahoo as their mail server. All of the settings, were correct for logging into the pop and smtp servers. My password was correct. I went to the online webmail log in and made sure the password was correct.
After that did not solve anything, I called Frontier Tech support to make sure all of my setting for the pop and smtp were correct (actually, I felt I wasted my time). At that time, I had the tech reset my password. I went back to the webmail server and made sure the password worked. Pulled up Thunderbird, reentered the new password and got the same message. From there, I figured I would deleted the email account; uninstalled Thunderbird; turned off the computer; rebooted it, reinstalled Thunderbird and redid the mail account. Guess what, got the same issue as before.
At that point, I realized I have two different Frontier email accounts in the program with two totally different usernames and passwords. Going back and forth, I checked the settings once again and it looked good. Finally after most of the day, I just gave up. Yes, I did go back to the mail server and manually typed in the new password and was able to get in and check my mail.
The funny part, yes, I do have a weird sense of humor, around 8:00 pm all worked well with the troublesome account?! I got up this morning and we are back the same frustration as earlier.
I have loved this program for several years and have most of my family using it. Please help! Jim
Best migration strategy from Exchange/Outlook to Thunderbird

Hi all:
I am trying to migrate my small company away from Microsoft Exchange + Outlook. Our Internet provider already supplies an IMAP mailbox for each employee, but these mailboxes are small and we do not want to completely rely on our Internet provider anyway. After all, we may want to change it, or it may go bust. We do not want to run our own e-mail server (like the current Microsoft Exchange) anymore either.
The ideal solution is easy to describe: every employee runs a Thunderbird, which downloads all messages from the Internet mail server. Messages are automatically deleted from the server only after a couple of weeks. This way, employees have access to the most recent e-mails when not in the office. Thunderbird can already do that. If the ISP breaks down, there is a local copy of all e-mails.
The problem is backing up the e-mail databases. Apparently, there is no automatic backup in Thunderbird. Add-on "MozBackup" is not being developed anymore, and add-on "ImportExportTools" is marked as experimental. Besides, Thunderbird and Firefox are famous for constantly breaking third-party add-ons.
As far as I know, Thunderbird cannot create local folders that are actually not local, but on a remote server share. With Outlook I can create a .pst file anywhere, and have e-mails copied or archived there automatically.
I could try to setup an automatic file mirroring for the profile directory between each Windows and Linux PC and some central sever file share. But backing up the e-mail database while Thunderbird is running is not really reliable. I would have to make sure that Thunderbird is not running when updating the backup file mirror. And employees tend to turn off their PCs when they leave the office.
I could also try to move all Thunderbird profiles to a server share that gets backed up overnight. But I am not sure that running all local Thunderbirds against a network share is good idea, for performance and reliability reasons.
Most users are not IT literate, so asking for regular, manual backups is asking for trouble.
Can someone describe a good automatic backup solution? If the Internet provider breaks down, I only want to loose the last few e-mails.
Thanks in advance,
rdiez
Where's the source-control tag for Thunderbird 64.0 beta4?

Hi Everyone,
I'm looking for the source-control tag for the [Thunderbird Setup 64.0b4.exe|https://download.mozilla.org/?product=thunderbird-64.0b4-SSL&os=win&lang=en-US] build, released December 2nd, 2018.
I have found the tag for the previous beta: https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/comm-beta/rev/THUNDERBIRD_64_0b3_RELEASE
Is this what I'm looking for? https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/comm-beta/rev/BETA_64_END Two reasons why that's probably not it:
- The tag was created *after* the build above, on Dec. 10th
- Its commit message contains "DONTBUILD", whatever that means.
There's a similar set of tags here: https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/comm-release/tags
Thanks in advance, Mihai

Hi.
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1227338
Has this been already implemented/fixed? I'm experiencing a similar behavior as when having security.webauth.u2f false in Firefox. The very same variable/parameter is set to true in Thunderbird (it works perfectly when the value is true in Firefox). I'm running version 60.3.2
Thanks!
