I am running Windows 10 22H2, Thunderbird 140.7.1esr.

I cannot display some emails that are found when I make a search for a specific word and partially displayed. Therefore I understand they are still there.

However, when I request a list of these emails, none is found. Same thing if I try to fully edit them. I understand the index is somewhat damaged. How do I fix that ?

I have a local folder which has 90 folders within it. These are folders brought over from Eudora (the mail system I used before Thunderbird). It would help me if I could easily move all 90 from their current "Eudora" folder to the big "main" folder that Thunderbird has. To make it clear what I'm asking, here's an example, using two folders, Danbury and Fritz.

D (folders whose names begin with D) Eudora folder, which has two folders - Danbury and Fritz F (folders whose names begin with F)

Is there any way to move the 2 folders that are currently within the "Eudora" folder so that they're "first level" folders. In other words, Danbury would be among the "D" folders and Fritz would be among the "F" folders.

The only way I know to achieve this is by manually creating the new folders, moving the items from the old folder to the new folder, and then deleting the old folder. This is cumbersome.

I've attached a screen shot of the main folders seen when I view these as 'Unified Folders' with folders names starting with *01, *02, *03 etc. Somehow, *04 is no longer appearing in this list and has instead appeared inside the *03 folder as seen in my second screen shot. I don't know how this folder and the many sub-folders it contains was moved into the *03 folder and no matter what I do, I can't move the *04 folder out of the *03 folder to sit where it should between folders *03 and *04. Can anyone point me in the right direction to move the *04 folder into the desired location? Thanks in advance, SteveJ

Oddly, when I tried to create a NEW folder using the same name, BOGUS AI PRAISE-MKTING-BOOK CLUB BULLSHIT, it did not work. I created a folder with a simpler name, AI BULLSHIT, and that worked. But I had over 400 emails stored in the folder that disappeared, and I would like them back.

Guten Tag, ich instaliere schon auf 2 PC mit Wondows 11 Ihre Email Programme Thunderbird und ich habe an statt ein Papierkorb eine Mape Zeichen. wenn ich lösche Email, dann die verschwieden und die kann mann nicht wieder finden. Es wir bei Instalation automatisch Einstellungen von Programm ubergenommen. Ich bitte um Ihre Hilfe, was mache ich falsch. Vielen Dank im vorraus. Michael

Wouldn't it be nice if we could filter all emails in our INBOX by their date received/sent, then Select All, and move them to an Archive folder? If only by YEAR, say 2023, then into that Archive sub-folder - this would make emptying one's INBOX easier. Or am I an idiot, and this is already possible?

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

I cannot add my work email, [edited from public] @cesconsult.com, to Thunderbird. I receive the error message enclosed. My password and username is correctly being entered, I have done this several times but receive the same error message.

Please help !

Sincerely, Jay Dehal

I am new to Thunderbird (just since this past weekend). I cannot figure out how to add a new folder to my folders. I need to file some emails on a new subject that I want to keep. Thank you for your help.

I deleted thunderbird mail and reinstalled it. My folders on the left will not open, but the messages appear in Quick Filter. I can send mail out ok. I do not want to use Quick Filter to access the mail folders. I tried doing the repair on each folder and did not help. I'm older 89 and not very computer savvy. I do not even have a cell phone. I would really appreciate it if anyone can help me with this. Thank you very much. Bob

I just got thunderbird. I want to empty my sent folder. It shows over 800 folders and I'd like to get them off my computer. I've looked through all the faqs and cannot find any answer that addresses this. I did read one that said I should check "unified folders" then I could do it. I did check it and still can't figure out to do it. Please help I am quite distressed.

I run my BTinternet mail account via Thunderbird and would like to run my two Gmail accounts via Thunderbird too. Do I just do that by clicking on the + New Account button, please? I'd hate to lose access to my BT mail by doing that. (Switched to Thunderbird from Outlook a year ago and have never regretted it!

My question is, whether or not the android Thunderbird will interact with the windows Thunderbird I have on my laptop. On my laptop, I have Thunderbird redirect emails into various folders. On my cellphone, I'm currently using Fairemail but it's not aware of those folders on my laptop which is a problem when doing a search on my cell for a specific email, if the email I'm looking for has migrated to those folders on the laptop. Thanks in advance, Phil

When I accessed TB it updated to an ESR (Eclipse) version and when I load it I get a message saying I've used an old version, would I like to create a new profile. ( I didn't) I've copied my backup to the profile but many folders are missing from the current profile.

How do I get all my folders to display? I've reinstalled TB version 147 without the ESR option.

I have found this article to Unify your POP email accounts with a global inbox

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/unify-your-pop-email-accounts-global-inbox

Is it possible to do the same with IMAP email accounts??

Many thanks in advance

Bonjour, J'ai créé une nouvelle adresse gmail, qui fonctionne depuis le site de google. Quand je souhaite l'inscrire pour l'utiliser via Thunderbird (nouveau compte/adresse mail), tout se passe bien et j'obtiens le message "Configuration trouvée dans la base de données des FAI de Mozilla". Je clique ensuite sur Terminé et j'arrive à une fenêtre "se connecter avec Google" qui affiche ma nouvelle adresse mail. Quand je clique sur "suivant", j'obtiens le message "erreur 400 - le serveur ne peut pas traiter la requête, car son format est incorrect". Pouvez-vous m'aider ? Merci d'avance. Laurent Lapchin

Get this error message I think since the update on September 2nd. See below

Unable to write the email to the mailbox. Make sure the file system allows you write privileges, and you have enough disk space to copy the mailbox. Also, I downloads a few old emails from September 2. If I delete them, they re-download when I click on get mail. I do get mail on my phone and on the Xfinity web site. I really would like to get this fixed as soon as I can. Thanks, William Dudzinski - <redacted>@comcast.net - <redacted>
