Hi Thunderbird Community,

I started using Thunderbird yesterday. I am using the latest update, 28.7.1esr (64-bit).

I’m encountering an issue with how URLs are displayed in my incoming emails. Instead of showing shortened, clickable links, emails from LinkedIn and other sources display the entire lengthy URLs, which include various codes and symbols. This makes the emails difficult to read.

For example:

https://www.example.com/messaging/compose/?connId=exampleUser&lipi=urn%3Aexample%3Apage%3Aemail_email_accept_invite_digest_02%3Bb6%2FtTggbExample&midToken=AQFfExample&midSig=ExampleSig&trk=eml-email_accept_invite_digest_02-null-0-null&trkEmail=eml-email_accept_invite_digest_02-null-0-null-null-Example~Example~iq-null-null&eid=Example~Example-iq

The URLs show up in their full form rather than as clickable links or with descriptive text. I have checked the settings, but I could not find an option to improve the readability of these URLs.

Can anyone suggest a way to configure Thunderbird to display URLs in a more readable manner, similar to how they appear in Outlook or other email clients?

Thanks in advance for your assistance!

I've been using Thunderbird on my Win10 PC for many many years, (and donated to Mozilla) and all has been fine till mid December. Emails still work fine on my Android phone and tablet using the Gmail app for my main Gmail email address and K9 app for an old email address, but on my PC using Thunderbird they both suddenly stopped around mid December. I can't give an exact date as I'm now disabled so only use my PC every fortnight or so just to keep everything up to date.

Thunderbird is using the server settings recommended by Melbpc group and they haven't changed for years. I also use Nord VPN which recently underwent what seemed a major upgrade so I turned that off - no difference.

I then tried manually instigating a download of my primary Gmail email on the pc using Thunderbird and watched as it said "connecting to  imap.gmail.com", then "connected to imap.gmail.com" but then nothing happened.

Everything is totally up to date - Win 10, Thunderbird etc..

Can anybody suggest what the cause might be please?

For the last year or so, whenever I delete a message from anywhere in my Inbox, Thunderbird then jumps to the last message, rather than staying where I was. This is infuriating when trying to clean up my inbox, necessitating scrolling back to the previous position each time. Is there any easy solution to this?

I am no tech genius and am struggling....

I have an old laptop (L1) and now have a new laptop (L2) - wanted to make my Thunderbird messages (POP account) accessible on both so installed Thunderbird on L2. The problem I then had was that if messages went to L1 or my phone they didn't come through to L2. So I went into my gmail through google on L1 and changed my POP settings, not really knowing what I was doing. I changed it to 'Enable POP for all mail (even mail that's already been downloaded)' and 'Keep Gmail's copy in the Inbox'.

This resulted in every email I'd ever had since setting up my Gmail reloading into my inbox (20K messages!) on L1. I now get new messages on both laptops however nothing is showing in any of my L1 Inbox subfolders (I had everything nicely filed...), and on top of this if I make a new subfolder the folder appears but if I moves a message from inbox to that folder the message disappears i.e., it's not visible....

I restarted Thunderbird after this and got an error message 'Couldn't load XPCOM' but I can still see all my inbox messages so seems to be starting up OK but the folder problem persists. It's maddening as I can't sort out my 20K messages into manageable folders....

I'd really like to understand - in an explanation fit for a tech dunderhead - what's going on. Both to fix it, and to stop the same thing ever happening in my Thunderbird on L2....

It'd be much appreciated if someone could help me unravel :)

Hi - I have a problem very similar to https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1493859?page=1 I think.

I am unlikely as technically savvy as user @iwright2 though.

I am running a MacBookPro 14.1.1, Thunderbird 129.7.1esr

Like the other user, this is no doubt due to my overstuffing of folders. I have, as a friend says, terrible computer hygiene.

I can see from the size of the empty inbox that there are many messages there. These messages all display in AllMail and outbox. These are all embarrassingly large.

I believe the problem stems from my searching on a string in one email's inbox and highlighting just these - they numbered n=60 I think, and I transferred them to an inbox on a different email account. They transferred slowly and after that, the entire first folder was empty.

This is a mac, running a lot of different gmail accounts all as IMAP.

Perhaps I need to restore some file, but I'm pretty nervous to do this. I will backup the computer first.

I'm not sure what else to tell about or investigate. Is there anyone who might be willing to help see me through trying to restore these emails to visibility. I tried someone's suggestion to change the display parameters, but that doesn't work. I must have messed things up in the transferring. I can also try repairing a disk as suggested in the other thread, though I'm not sure that's the root of the problem, I think the transfer amid way-too-big-files is.

Thanks - Huge Thanks!!! - if someone has a thought/suggestion as to where to start.

My Macbook Pro has been crashing - sometimes Firefox, sometimes Thunderbird -sometimes multiple times/day. I've saved many of the crash reports in case they might help someone know how to fix this. An Apple tech person diagnosed my memory was broken, so I just got a new logic board and reinstalled all my data from my Time Machine backup. Then a message popped up that Thunderbird was damaged and should be put in the trash. Around the same time i replied to an email from someone at Thunderbird donor who was responding to a question i had about a small donation i tried to make - i explained i was having trouble with Thunderbird. At that time, i could see the Thunderbird icon in my task bar. When talking with someone from Apple support this evening who was helping me answer a couple of questions, including about a new "mail" icon that showed up in my task bar, I mentioned that i'd like to learn how to back up or archive my emails in Thunderbird. That's when i saw that the Thunderbird icon - had disappeared. The Apple support person and i searched all over my computer for the Thunderbird app, but couldn't find it. I'm really nervous. I have over 300,000 emails I've been wanting to learn how to archive - or something. I don't want to delete most of them. I hope someone can help me find everything. Thank you.

I need to move around 9,000 emails from a business Google workspace email to a personal Gmail account. I successfully exported all 9,000 emails to a Mbox file. I added the new Gmail account I want to move the emails to and the exported file to Thunderbird and it shows over 20,000 emails in Thunderbox (even though there should only be around 9,000). I have tried moving the email file to the new email account within Thunderbird twice now. Both times it shows like it is moving the 20,000 emails but when it finishes it only moves around 1,200 emails. How do I get it to import all 9,000 of the emails that are in the exported file?

Background - my old (selfhosted IMAP) server died, I was able to recover the Maildir but for whatever reasons both dovecot and courier ignore the "message read" metadata embedded in the filenames so the local copy in Thunderbird is suddenly the most authoritative.

But every time I try to bulk copy from the old account to local folders or to my new server it fails because it tries to contact the dead server.

Looking for ways to attack this problem

Hello

Overnight Thunderbird has developed a major problem. The count for the number of mails in a folder is correct, as best I can tell, but when I open the folder it is either empty or has fewer mails than the count. Based on several tests, repairing sometimes adds more mails, sometimes not, but never the entire folder.

I repaired the inbox and it is now showing several mails that I deleted in the last few days (by emptying the delete folder having previously deleted them). Curiously, they’re all the same type, routine mailings about road works.

I may have backup in that I copy the entire Thunderbird folder to an external drive every morning, including today, and to Google Drive every Wednesday.

Please can you help.

Thank you

When I open up my Thunderbird to get emails I keep getting getting error code 0x80570015. I can't see attachments and cannot respond to emails. Also cannot delete emails. I Iooked it up to see how to fix it and they say to remove the "lightning" add on. When I go under tools and look for this add on, it is not there. In fact it doesn't seem that I have any add-ons. Something to do with the calendar which I don't even use. It says Thunderbird is up to date. Could you please give any advice how to fix it. Thanks, Matt
