Thunderbird コミュニティフォーラム

For years I had an pop account in my Thunderbird, next to my Imap account. Both live happily next to each other. Today I moved all the mails from my pop account (which was no long active, nor was it connected to a server) to my local folders. I found out that all of my folder were suddenly twice the size. Compressing didn't do a thing. Why is this?

I have a Win10 PC and a Win11 Notebook. Yesterday I could open my email accounts on both: PC and Notebook. But today suddenly I get the notification, the Thunderbird versions are different and I can not open my email account. Thunderbird versions on PC: 153.6.0esr and Notebook: 159. Why did Thunderbird on the PC not actualise automatically to a newer version, even under Help/About is written "Thunderbird is actualised"?? see attached screenshot.

I'm trying to re configure Thunderbird, to avoid the constant requests for passwords each time I try to send an email. My server sent me a link to a discussion of this problem, which listed several possible solutions to the problem. #3 and #4 did not solve my problem.

1. 2 suggests I delete the Tbird files logins and logins.json. I followed the procedure:

Menu/help/troubleshooting information/profile folder/open folder.

I found the two files, but I cannot delete them because "the files are still open". Where do I go from here? Please reply via email [redacted from community support forum] @pathcom.com

Meeting notices are showing locally as being stored in my Google calendar, but actually are not.

I have four email addresses in Thunderbird, say one@domain.com, two@domain.com, three@domain.com, four@domain.com. I get Microsoft meeting calendar invites from time to time at each of these addresses. I accept them.

I want my calendar also on my Android, so have subscribed to my Google calendar, say at address calendar@gmail.com, through the builtin Thunderbird feature of a calendar on the network.

After accepting a Microsoft meeting invite, say at two@domain.com, it shows up correctly in my Thunderbird calendar as being stored in my Google calendar:

  Calendar: calendar@gmail.com

But actually it is not in that calendar when I check the calendar on the web. And so of course are not synced to my Android.

Is the problem that in the calendar properties in Thunderbird that I have my main email address "one@domain.com" selected from the "Email:" dropdown? Should I change that to "calendar@gmail.com"?

If so, does that mean I also need to add "calendar@gmail.com" as an email account to Thunderbird? I have not done so yet, because I don't need email from that account, I am just using it for the calendar feature.

Thanks.

First Netscape then Thunderbird, we've been using and recommending Thunderbird for a LONG time, gradually weening customers away from built in clients which become incompatible when hardware or O/S changes. Providing a POP mail service to our customers, Thunderbird has always been at the top of our recommended email client list. The portability of Thunderbird has been a godsend over the years. Especially with customers managing large number of email accounts. I hope the change doesn't result in us we looking for another email client once the new version is launched.

Перестали отправляться письма с почтового ящика gmail.com. Соединение с сервером исходящей почты не устанавливается. Разные порты и способы шифрования уже пробовал. помогите решить проблему. Спасибо.

Environment: Desktop PC, Windows 11 Pro ver. 26H2 and updates are current. Multiple e-mail accounts. Process: Select e-mail to be deleted Click "Delete" button The e-mail selected is deleted AND the one directly below is also deleted. This occurs in all accounts. The issue started to occur about 3 weeks ago and was present before the 26H2 Windows update.

Current official docs explains how to backup and move your profile, it assumes you only have one. I have multiple profiles which means about a 20GB backup but I only want to backup one specific profile (<2GB).

The backup is not for recovery but I need to keep a history records for a specific account which can be accessed through Thunderbird even if the original email account no longer exists.

To backup/copy its recommended to do it for this folder %APPDATA%\Thunderbird\Profiles\ (about 20 GB)

While all I need is %APPDATA\Thunderbird\Profiles\xxxxx.default-release\ImapMail\Important_stuff* (2 GB folder and .msf file)

Any better solutions than these?

1. Use a backup method that excludes specific folder and files in backup/copy of
2. Have a completely different installation of Thunderbird that only does the Important_stuff account (Thunderbird portable looks like it might do the job).

I suspect the first version will pick up a lot of unnecessary configuration and other stuff.

My Thunderbird connected to my gmail is running slow. Thunderbird is not running slow on my other (non-gmail) account. It takes 10-15 seconds for an e-mail (from gmail) to be deleted or moved within Thunderbird. I have tried "compacting folders" and "repairing folders" and that does not help. Please help!

The STAT command did not succeed. Error getting message number and sizes. Mail server pop.gmail.com responded: [SYS/PERM] Your account is not enabled for POP access. Please visit your Gmail settings page and enable your account for POP access.

I have swapped my Internet provider fro Inmotion to Bluehost. When the DNS was changed I can no longer receive emails. I am using Thunderbird. Where do I go to change this? I have a lot of emails that I need to keep. I have them on my computer but cannot receive any new email.

Beim Eingeben von Text in ein E-Mail springt der Cursor in das Erinnerungsfeld und stopt die Zeicheneingabe. Das ist sehr störend und verhindert flüssiges Email schreiben. Ich verwende Firefox und Thunderbird auf einem Windows PC der die Bedingungen für Win 11 nicht erfüllt und dem ein Win 11 trotzdem installiert wurde weil entsprechende Anpassungen vorgenommen wurden. Danke für Ihre zeitnahe Rückmeldung

I signed up for Thunderbird. Again. I've been a user for 20+ years. for the last month, I kept getting a message saying it needed a password from/for yahoo. I was stuck.....I didn't know the password and could not get rid of that message, and I couldn't open Thunderbird

So I uninstalled Thunderbird, and just minutes ago tried to reinstall. I got to the donation page, donated, but I never got Thunderbird. I cant get mail from Thunderbird. In fact, I'm not sure it's even installed. Can you help me?

Steve Tilton 847-902-5050 PS.....don't email me, as I don't have Thunderbird installed, thus no email. If you must email...please send it to : srt1002@gmail.com

Hi,

In my one account in Thunderbird, I still have the old POP folders, that was a different account. I also have an IMAP account, both have the same address. The pop one does not work but the folders are there, I use them to look old mails up, so far so good. When I sent out an email with my IMAP account, the sent mail goes into the sent folder of the IMAP account, so far so good. BUT when I click on that sent mail and click on reply, it replies to the same address that what it already was sent to, now here comes the problem. THAT copy of the mail, I called the NEW sent, does not go into my sent folder. It goes directly into the sent folder of my old pop account. Even though everything on the IMAP account is standard, re-sent mails are not placed in the IMAP account sent folder. What am I doing wrong here, I know when writing the mail is that I can choose the send address and if I change that it goes in the IMAP sent folder but why is it standard on my old POP account, and why not on the IMAP account even though the IMAP is the standard?

Thunderbird has become extreme slow. Like it's doing task in the background. Takes emails longer to display and mouse becomes jerky. All other programs OK Especially noticeable after leaving TB running for a while. The previous versions were snappy. This version is very noticeably slower.
