My old Arch Linux system with Thunderbird 145.0-1-x86_64 died. My RasPi and my new Pop-OS Meerkat both get 140.7.1esr (aarch64), and say they can't import my backups. I could see the RasPi ARM system getting a different Thunderbird, but the Meerkat is clearly an Intel processor. Why does it get the same version as the ARM based Pi? How can I recover my years of mail history? Both new installations say they are incompatible!

Thunderbird 147.0 (64-bit) OS: Linux; Fedora 43 Settings:

• smtp.gmail.com
• port 465
• SSL/TLS
• OAuth2
• full email address

This situation started happening about a week ago. I created a new user and had no problem sending email from the same default account. I can also connect to smtp.gmail.com using telnet, port 465. Something is presumably corrupted. I have had this account for many, many years, so I have accumulated many filters and other data.

Hi, somehow thunderbird forced me to use OAuth for caldav and carddav. (v140 on linux) Unless I've probably missed something this approach doesn't seem to have considered that people might use more than one device. In the past I had an application password per device with my mail provider. That password covered imap, smtp, caldav and carddav. The application password I could set with a specific name at my mail provider. If the device was lost, compromised or whatever I just deleted that one application password at my mail provider, problem solved. Now a regular thunderbird setup has the application password for mail and 2 OAuth records per device under "Connected Apps" at my mail provider. But it is not possible to see anymore to which device the OAuth record belong, as there is nothing device specific coming along with these OAuth records, just an IP. With that perspective OAuth weakened my security options, as I can only guess which OAuth record I have to delete in an emergency case. Did anyone who implemented that with Thunderbird considered that people may have more than 1 device? Maybe even more than 5 devices? That OAuth approach looks unmanagable to me. Is there a way to switch OAuth off in thunderbird, until it becomes more useable in >1 device setups?

Operating system: ubuntu 24.04. Thunderbird version 148 snap. Since the latest update, whenever a reminder appears onscreen it is squashed up into a square instead of a letter-slit oblong and is difficult to get rid of. Klicking on the close button has no effect and while klicking on X temporarily removes it, it comes back in a matter of minutes.What is happening and how can I stop this?

I am using internet server provider www. namespro.ca server settings for my email account set up with Thunderbird mail and the email account will not set up properly. I currently have (1) domain name "realestateX.com with www. namespro.ca and I am attempting to set the email accounts using Thunderbird Mail on a desktop CPU. The email accounts will NOT set up with ThunderBird Mail with this domain name, 'realestatex.com.' On the other hand, the same domain name email account were succcesfully set up on OUTLOOK using the same www. namespro.ca server settings with success, they work properly in and out

Back to the Desktop CPU and my Thunderbird Mail program; I have another email account set in with another domain email account realestatex.net with a completely different internet server provider www. webnames.ca and that email works fine in and out and the set up without an issue

Back to namespro.ca their server settings work fine with MS 365 OUTLOOK email set up on my DELL laptop. However the server setting from namespro.ca will not work on the desktop and laptop, The laptop set up is using a MOZILLA Thunderbird Account Hub and stated their is an "authentication error because of a policy violation relating to the refused connection from the IP" . Would namepro.ca IP connection refusing my thunderbird mail account to syne with namespro.ca? any insight would be helpful, appreciate your time

My work email provider, which hosts about 30 individual email accounts, returns the following when queried for quota:

a GETQUOTAROOT INBOX

QUOTAROOT INBOX Mailbox "cPanel Account" QUOTA Mailbox (STORAGE 1198939 2097152) QUOTA "cPanel Account" (STORAGE 24913212 26214400)

"Mailbox" is the individual account (at about 50% usage) here and "cPanel Account" is the whole server (at about 95%).

Thunderbird receives that data then uses the last one received for it's display (the overall server quota) which is confusing for users who expect to see their individual quota.

Is there any way I can either:

• tell Thunderbird to use the first QUOTA value ("Mailbox)
• intercept that response and strip out the "cPanel Account" entry before Thunderbird UI sees it

I can't get the response from the mail provider changed, I've already asked that.

Thanks, Dave.

I have this issue with my reminders for peoples' birthdays. I have an event on their birthday that comes from my Google contacts. That event has a reminder 1 week in advance. When the 1-week mark hits, I get an undismissable notification from Thunderbird. I can close the reminder window, but it'll show back up within a minute or two. I've tried removing and re-adding this calendar but it doesn't matter. When I look at the details for the event, I see that the Organizer field is Unknown Organizer <unknownorganizer@calendar.google.com>. My regular email address is listed as an attendee. This has been happening for at least the last several months, perhaps more than a year.

I'd like to receive Thunderbird's calendar alerts once and only once; if I'm not at my computer I don't want to keep hearing them over and over every 10 (?) minutes until manually dismissed. I haven't been able to find any setting (including in about:config) that turns on/off the repeat or sets the timeout between repeat alerts. Is it hardcoded? Or is there somewhere it can be changed? Thanks!

Without client certificate configuration, the user can retrieve its emails on the dovecot IMAPs server using a password.

When I try to authenticate the user with an S/MIME client certificate, the dovecot server reports that: ```dovecot: imap-login: Login aborted: Connection closed (client didn't send a cert) (client_ssl_cert_missing)```

Here is the configuration: 1. On the client side: I've imported into thunderbird: - the self-signed CA certificate - the user's S/MIME client certificate which is fine: ```

1. pk12util -l user@example.com.p12

Enter password for PKCS12 file: Certificate(has private key):

``` I've setup the account to - use its certificate - use a TLS certificate as an authentication method. There is no S/MIME certificate option.

2. On the dovecot (2.4.1) server side: The server is configured to require client certificates for all IMAP connection: ``` protocol imap {

 ssl_server_ca_file = /etc/ssl/CA_CRL.pem
 ssl_server_request_client_cert = yes
 ssl_server_cert_username_field = commonName
 
 auth_ssl_require_client_cert=yes
 auth_ssl_username_from_cert = yes

} ```

Does that mean that I also have to import a TLS client certificate? If so, what format should it (.p12, .crt...) be?
