I have set my account to "Don't delete any messages", because I frequently want to reread a deleted message in my Trash folder. However, when I go into my Trash folder to search for a deleted message, I am finding that messages older than a certain date have disappeared, although I've done nothing to permanently delete them. For example, today everything older than May 3 is gone. What can I do to prevent this?

thanks, CW

Hello,

In looking at new messages the inbox, there is a button to send it to the Archive, and another to send it to the trash. Both buttons work as expected. However, the trash button is sending the message to both locations. Is that just the way it is? Or is there a way to only send it to trash? I've spent some time searching the settings and haven't found anything other then disabling the archive altogether. I also didn't find anyone complaining about this, so I suspect I've missed something.

Thanks!

I am currently using old outlook and am thinking of switching to Thunderbird for better mobile calender integration with my gmail account. I do not like IMAP as I prefer my data locally and it impacts performance. One aspect of outlook that I use constantly is reminders on emails, meaning a get a reminder on the date and time I set to look at an email that I sent or received in the past.

Can this be replicated in some way with Thunderbird?

Hello, we are facing an issue like unable view the emails. Resulting in blankpages.

Same issue happened last month also.

Current version - 139.0.2 and the we are using UNC path.

Any advice would be helpful!

Edit : currently we have downgraded to the thunderbird version 138.0.2 and we are able to view the emails.

1. Thunderbirdportable 139.0.2: Nearly all emails work well. But the attached email doesn't present the inline pictures well. I tried outlook, foxmail, emclient and all worked very well. But TB cannot do it.

2. ThunderbirdPortableLegacy52_52.9.1 Other emails look good. Suddenly received the new email and it becomes plain text. Checked inbox online and tried emclient/outlook and all display the email in html. It also works on Thunderbirdportable 139.0.2. Really confused...

When I add any email that I receive from British Airways to my address book, Thunderbird does not hide the email address in the From display pane. I do not appear to have this problem with other accounts from which I receive regular emails. Could this be a problem at their end ?

can not send emails recently as about a month ago. Error message is :unable to authenicate to outgoing server. Please check the password and verifiy the authenticate method in account settings outgoing server . smtp not sure if i am doing this right? please help this old guy

I installed the update to Thunderbird as suggested this morning and my whole address book has disappeared. This is a major problem for me. Can you please tell me where it is and how to restore it to my account? Many thanks.

My messages displayed in Thunderbird are simply duplicated... I see a letter, and under it a reply with exactly the same letter. The date, time, and other data match. That is, two identical letters that were simply duplicated.

I find TB (sometimes, rarely perhaps) unable to recognise a mail's arrival although it has arrived. I chanced to discover this because I was expecting one and I kept trying get/fetch mails but kept on receiving the no new message status, but when I logged into the outlook mail server, I saw it there unread. Is there a way to trigger TB or outlook to resend or refresh, so TB can recognise and download it? Ofcourse I can do other things such as forward, reply with cc: etc., on the server but want to preserve the original in the TB folder.

appreciate any help?

thanks Raman

Hello,

Recently I have started to have emails fail to deliver to a certain domain and the message that comes back is

550 DKIM Sender Invalid - envelope rejected.

I am using Thunderbird v128.8.1 esr (64-bit). Extensions installed are: 1. Attachment Saver (Deimios, v.0.2.2) 2. FileLink provider for Send (Teal Dulcet v2.1.1) 3. Remove Duplicate Messages (Eyal Rozenberg v0.6.1)

I have been in communication with this client for several years and not had this problem before. When I send email to the same recipients using WebMail there is no problem, it is only when I send from Thunderbird.

I am not using any encryption type of setup.

Has anyone come across this before? Does anyone know of a solution?

Thanks, Franc.

I have set up a Microsoft 365 account in Thunderbird to send and receive emails. Suddenly, I cannot receive new emails on Thunderbird. Even if I manually attempt to send/receive emails, new emails are not received. No error messages are displayed. When I log into Webmail (Outlook), I can see the newly arrived emails. Upon checking with Microsoft, they indicated that the root cause seems to be related to the failure in properly updating the UIDL map and UIDL history. Reinstalling the Thunderbird application did not resolve the issue. Could you please advise on how to address this problem?

I'm on Windows Thunderbird version 128.11.1esr (32-bit) (Danish language)

In composing an e-mail if I select CC or BCC and add some addresses, everything seems fine.

Except: The labels for CC and BCC are completely missing. So I cannot tell if the e-mail address is a CC or BCC address.

See attached screenshot.

Hi,

My local folder is on my Unraid sever. I have full access to the sever, In thunderbird I can see all my mails in "local Folder" I can transfer mail in the local folder and move them around, create new subfolders. But I cannot open any mail. I tried to change the directory of the local folder to a different source and back to my server. Nothing.... I can see every thing, move things around, but I just can't open any mail??? It's not a server access problem, because I wouldn't be able to move files in or out of the "local Folder" repertoire.

Any Ideas, J-P

(Unable to send a bug report via connect.mozilla.org, I have to leave feedback here.) After importing feeds from OPML into Thunderbird 140.0b2 (64-bit), I will export them.

I had to attach fragments of files as screenshots because this site does not allow formatting text as code and removes part of the text.

It seems to me that the export is broken because the generated file lacks both a link to the feed itself (xmlUrl) and to the management web page (htmlUrl). And if the latter is not critical, then without a link to the feed the generated OPML file is useless.

When I import feeds from OPML, I can open the feed properties window ("Folder Properties"), but the only text data I can see is "Name" (taken from "text" or "title") and "Location" (assigned to the feed by the application, and looks like `mailbox://nobody@Feeds/Google Alerts. 941f2f87`). So the feed properties do not have the feed address (xmlUrl), which would allow it to be uniquely identified with feeds in the OPML file, feeds in another aggregator application, or with the Google Alerts interface. Also, when importing, the htmlUrl address, which is used to specify the address of the web interface for managing feeds (useless information for the application, but sometimes useful to the user), seems to be lost.

Also, as far as I understand, Thunderbird does not provide the user with the ability to see the date a feed was added to the application (or filter or sort feeds by this property), or an error log when updating it. Is this correct?

hello all know i ma have asked this recently but either never got an answer or forgot the answer please allow me to ask again/ In my drafts folder when i put something in there should it not be from the actual person that send it> well almost everything in there says my name from and too and not the actual person or company that sent it. i will send you something every thing in the drafts folder has a yellow label at the bottom and the photo i am sending will show you. Now even as far back as 2016 i have some things i sent to drafts and they have my name from and too. I think my Thunderbird is just messed up ok send one photo of just the yellowline at the bottom and send a draft i had saved from 2019 that has the same yellow line

I want to create a semi-automated email, where the body of the email is supplied from a text file. The email is created using bash script that is launched from a desktop icon. My system is Linux Mint.

This works quite well except that if the email body contains commas then everything from the comma on-wards does not appear. For example if the email body should be "Hello Fred, In response to your email of the...", what appears is "Hello Fred".

I have tried changing the HTML/Text settings in Thunderbird, but to no avail. Have also tried creating an email from the terminal, but again the result is the same.

I would very much appreciate some guidance with this.
