Older messages in Thunderbird are listed but their content is not showing. I have been using TB forever and I never had that problem before. It is POP3. When I try Folder Repair, the program simply throws out all messages whose content is not accessible (so if my Sent folder has 40,000 messages it comes back with a Sent folder of 2,000). Clearly something got corrupted but I am not sure what. In the picture below, the header is visible but (a) not clickable (different header showing) (b) no content is displayed. I used to copy the content of the TB folder to my laptop and back (while keeping different profile names assigned during installation. The problem seems to have started when I changed profile names and began using identical profile names on both the desktop and laptop. Also, the total size of the folders is around 65Gb, in case there is a size limit. Any ideas? Thanks

Incoming e-mails do not always appear in the inbox when they arrive. They always do appear but there are often delays, sometimes of a few minutes, sometimes of several hours, and sometimes of many hours. At the end of the delay they always do appear, with the time at which they were sent indicated, even though that time is earlier than the time at which they appear in my inbox. I have sometimes sent e-mails to myself, as tests -- and these are also often delayed for five or ten minutes. I am not aware of any actions that I take that precipitates either the start or the end of the delay.

Hi all

I have my sent mail going into my Inbox be default, so that I can see entire threads in context. It's set that way in Copies & Folders in each of my email accounts. However, I frequently find sent emails in the Sent Mail folder.

Can anyone offer an idea of why, and how to fix it?

Thanks Edwin

Not sure what has changed, but I have a lot of sub-folders in my email handler, I've set up filters and generally, the incoming mail get through the filters and ends up in the correct sub-folders, but today, I've been trying to add one sub and it fails. No message, no error. Just no sub-folder creation. Did an update do this to me? And others?

I'm aware of the many caveats regarding use of 'Repair Folder'. It's widely known that the results are...inconsistent, to put it charitably. Nevertheless...

I keep vast quantities of messages in local folders. For some of those folders, I manually archive the contents annually, by creating a new folder with the name of the year ("2025"), then dragging messages from the existing folder to the new folder. This sometimes works. More often than not though, it fails in one way or another. Sometimes I drag them across, a handful of them show up in the new folder, but then the rest just sit there in the old folder, in selected state, but with no activity taking place. Sometimes merely selecting smaller 'chunks' of messages to drag across will work. In others, such as last night, even that didn't work.

I then invoked 'Repair Folder' in a vain attempt at recovery; sometimes that will clear the issue. However, when I did this, what happened is that the chunk of messages that were selected wound up having all their date fields (in the display) reset to near the epoch - January 20, 1970. When I view the message source, the dates are correct.

I'm unable to find a way to recover from this.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Tbird starts to d/l messages: "nn of mm new messages" counts up and just before it gets to the last few, it stops. It doesn't put the retrieved messages in the inbox or anything. Then it gives this error message:

"The DELE command did not succeed. Error marking a message as deleted. Mail server pop.mail.yahoo.com responded: Too many requests."

But this is POP mail, so delete request don't go back to the mail server. The number of emails deleted from the local db shouldn't have any effect on d/l... I'm mightily confused.

Yes, I did delete thousands of old emails. Still shouldn't make any difference for retrieving mail, nor should the client be overwhelmed by commands it successfully executed days ago.

The inbox on my default email account (cfgait@gmail.com) was showing that I have new messages. The total was not highlighted in its usual blue but since I'm colorblind, I can't tell you what the color is. Obviously, something is out of sync. The mail tool thinks I have new messages (which, in fact I did because I checked them using the Chrome browser) but the mail tool could not or would not display them. This seems to have started happening ever since I downloaded the latest 128.12.0esr (64-bit) release (esr). I deleted my account and added it back in. Unfortunately, I also lost all of my email rules. What can I do to recover?

Many of my mailboxes on the IMAP server just emptied. They were still there in my Ubuntu '.thunderbird' ImapMail directory. I have created some replacement mailboxes in 'Local Folders' and copied mbox files from the ImapMail area to the Local Folder area, removing the .msf files just created by Thunderbird. I then used the Properties->Repair Folder on each of the the new Local and filled-in-the-background mailboxes. Many worked fine and I was able to repopulate the IMAP server mailboxes using drag in Thunderbird. Some, however, were mis-parsed, producing 'From-less' and Subject-less messages containing part messages. Thunderbird seems unable to reliably parse mbox files created by itself. I note that they are not strict mbox format, having a '-' instead of an envelope address on the delimiting '^From ' line. (I am a retired Unix SysAdmin, so used to the command line)

As of June 26, I am completely unable to SEND any eMails to anyone. Incoming eMails are accepted as usual, but ALL outgoing eMails get a warning box saying that the mail server has detected spam in the eMail and it will not be sent. Our local internet provider is Bartnet, they have helped us prove it is not them, we can log into the online website and receive/send items normally. Now we have to consider Thunderbird as the source of the Warning. We have completely rebooted the computer, no change, nothing can be sent out. How do we get RID OF the warning box ? We are extremely careful of any incoming files and do NOT open them if the sender is unknown. Those are deleted, not opened. Malwarebytes has scanned the entire machine, no reports of any malware. PLEASE help us learn how to change settings so we CAN SEND EMAILS AGAIN. Thanks for any assistance you can provide us.....Meg Greenwood

What is the problem? This has made my life almost impossible. Do you understand the impact of not being able to use links in emails? It is the only way to access what the email is about. It means I cannot unsubscribe from anything either. When I tried to follow manual instructions they did not make sense and what was described was not what was on the set up. I am not a tech I don't understand and for Thunderbird to have no way to get help is beyond shameful and insulting. It is a "fuck you" to all of us. Insult to injury is the constant nag for donations. How dare you ask for this when you provide no help at all. It should be illegal to do this. I have tried for help on here before and received no answer. I cannot function like this. There is no Kindness here. ' When I try to take a screen shot the pop-up message disappears. This is what it says "This file does not have an app associated with it for performing his action. Please install an app or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Apps Settings page." I tried and it would not do it and only Chrome was offered. I do not use Chrome. I need my email back. Thunderbird has effectively ruined my life. It should not be this hard or disrespectful.
