Hi, how do I get rid of

"Error: Platform version '143.0.1' is not compatible with minVersion >=141.0 maxVersion <= 141.0 Maybe try to reinstall Thunderbird?"

It's not very practible to do a new copy everytime a Thunderbird Update has to be made because I mainly store my emails in a local copy (respectively a lot of copies already).

could you please help me?

Thx & BR Eva

Tuesday Oct. 7, our ISP converted to a new e-mail program. I could NOT log in/on I called our ISP's help desk. The 'technician' could not help me log in to our Thunderbird POP 3 account. He had me, WITHOUT asking if I had essential - legal - medical-etc. e-mails in the IN BOX or in folders! He NEVER warned/cautioned all ?would? be lost - GONE.

I URGENTLY need to recover all TB POP3 IN BOX & e-mails in folders. I need to access legal messages today, if possible.

If Mozilla does not have a recovery program, what do I do? I am not seeking to recover ' deleted messages (unless his having me change from the POP3 account to a 'new' IMAP account is the same as ' "delete" '.

Any & all prompt responses APPRECIATED! Remain WELL & Be SAFE!

Hi!

I can't get messages from my Thunderbird account. When I click "Get messages" nothing happens and it usually says "Done" on the bottom left corner. I have to use my domain's webmail account to get my e-mail and it only allows me to read it and delete junk.

I really would love to have my Thunderbird account working again as soon as possible.

Thanks so much, Nancy Pedersen

I am setting up a new email address on Thunderbird. I enter a new email address and when I enter password it is rejected. I have removed all previous emails and passwords

Hi,

I just cannot find any information on how Thunderbird designers see the Threads / Threading features to be used. How would I use it ? What are my (individual) choices for configuration ? etc.

The only info I can find is : [how to manage and turn on/off the feature].

...and of course lots unhappy user voices across the forums.

So: How would I use it ? What are my (individual) choices for configuration ? etc. Please link the respective Mozilla resource (blog, help, user design doc, ... whatever).

Ah, to start with, a description of how the feature is meant to behave, can be a start. (Sorry, I was just too stupid to find that)

Greetings! I read everywhere that we must install the Lightning add-on to use the calendar feature in Thunderbird. But when I search for this add-on, I get a bazillion options, none of which appears Lightning. There is something called Lightning Calendar Tabs that keeps coming up. Is this it? Doesn't seem so.

Where can one download/install the Lightning add-on?

Thank you.

I established a new email address in my existing Thunderbird platform. It only configures an "Inbox" folder and a "Trash" folder. I can not add a "Sent" folder (or "Draft" or "Archives", etc.). I tried deleting the account and re-establishing it, but that did not work. I did notice that emails sent from the new account are being saved in my "Local" account folder's "Sent" folder.

I have also gone into "Account Settings" for the new email account to make sure the software was properly configured with where to store sent messages and drafts, but the setting reverst back to the "Local Folders," presumably because there is no "Sent" folder in the proper account.

Please Help!!!

Yesterday I upgraded my PC from Windows 10 to 11. Today I discovered my Local Folders are not visible. Searching tells me the messages still exist, but TB does not show the folders. I did the same upgrade a month ago on a laptop (Windows 10 Pro to 11), no problems. I didn't externally back up the messages as I am a dinosaur and don't know how, but at least they are still on the hard drive. Thousands of them though so I need the local folders back. Tried all the fixes I can find on the Community Forum, without success. Can anyone help please? Bob

In Thunderbird 143.0.1 (64-bit), my appointment invitations are no longer sent automatically to the respective email recipients, as they used to be. I can't find any settings where I can change this. Under ‘Troubleshooting Information’ in the line ‘Send appointment notifications via email’, the value is not set to ‘true’. I look forward to your help. Best regards, Thorsten

Hallo, bei mir kommt immer wieder das angehängte pop-up. Wie kann ich die Abfrage dauerhaft entfernen. Ich hatte mal ocloud aber schon lange nicht mehr also wird das nicht gebraucht Bitte um Hilfe

When an email that is received from a sender that has previously been marked as spam then Thunderbird activates the "beep" notification. When I tab to Thunderbird to see the email by then it has already been moved by Thunderbird to the Junk folder. This is quite frustrating as it unnecessarily interrupts workflow just to see that it was junk.

I would like it not to notify on messages that go to the Junk folder. Is there some way I can get this to work.

I am really really distraught right now. It took me two weeks to get the time and focus to write a long reply to a company's nice email to me. Stayed up till 2am to write it. Deliberately wanted to re-read it in the morning before sending. Gone. Nowhere to be found. I pressed "Save to draft" before closing my laptop. But not saved. This account actually has a "draft" folder, unlike most of my other accounts in Thunderbird, which I also cannot figure out and no one has helped me with.

My e-mails are sorted from earliest (top) to the latest (bottom). Suddenly about 15 messages have gone out of order. Early ones have appeared towards the bottom (later ones, have appeared under those). Is there an easy way of moving them so they are all sequential?

Thanks

I have several email accounts of all types (IMAP, POP, etc.) managed by a single Thunderbird instance (v140.3.1esr 64-bit) running on Windows 11 (latest update).

A few weeks ago, I noticed that the 'Trash' folder on one of my IMAP accounts lost the 'Empty Trash' context menu item. Email I deleted still went to the 'Trash' folder, but I needed to delete them manually. 'Trash' folders on other accounts continued to work as expected.

This afternoon, I noticed that the deleted mails were no longer going to the 'Trash' folder. Looking this up online, I found the following old topic from 2023: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1420657

However, the link cited within that post (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1156586) no longer seems to exist and the details cited there no longer seems to be applicable as the interface and other details provided are no longer representative of the product today.

The elements of the post that seem applicable is a potential corruption of the 'Smart Mailboxes'. If I look at <ProfilePath>/Mail/smart mailboxes, I have several files associated with folders that may or may not be associated with the 'Trash' folder of the email account suffering from this problem. Given the date stamps, I'm not sure what they represent or even if they are involved in the currently running product.

Do note that I have been using this client for more going on 20 years.

Can you please provide updated troubleshooting steps and help me understand how I can map the folders under 'Mail' to the appropriate accounts to be sure I am not disturbing account email that is functioning properly.

Thanks in advance for the help,

AJ
