Thunderbird Support Forum

Hi Team, I download the latest update i.e. 115 for the official web site but new ui isn't reflecting. please help. I loved the new UI Supernova but even after installing the latest version I am not able to use it. it is still showing the email in the old way.

As of version 115.0 for 64bit, I am unable to send emails to Outlook.com. An error occurs saying:

Send Message Error Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to the Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.office365.com timed out. Try again.

There are no issues sending emails to Outlook.com using a different mail client.

Manjaro 23.0.0 Thunderbird 115.0.1

Before the update to Supernova, Thunderbird light theme used the system color for the UI elements highlight. In my case, green. Now it is blue everywhere, which irritates my eyes. I attached before and after images, so you have an idea. Can I get back the green?

Hi, I have downloaded the latest Thunderbird and it is driving me mad because I KNOW there is a simple solution (I hope) When I used to open my emails they were all listed from oldest to newest and Thunderbird would automatically go to the bottom of the list where my latest (newest) emails were, NOT ANY MORE it goes to the older email in my in box, click date and YES the latest email rushes to the top of the list BUT I want it at the bottom HOW do I get the emails back the way I like them?

Two days ago Thunderbird no longer would send emails (been using it without problems for 7 years) I have read all the previous posts on this. Tried sending emails after disabling firewall and Malwarebytes without success. I can receive emails sent from my Spectrum email account (still works). I can send emails from my iPhone using the identical Outgoing Server Settings. The settings are in the screenshot. Also downloaded the latest version of Thunderbird today. Didn't fix it. To get around the problem right now is I am composing my emails (IMAP), saving them in my drafts and then sending them from my iPhone.Any ideas? Thank you!

Hi,

My reading pane on v115 will only adjust downwards but I would like to adjust it upwards as was possible in previous versions.

Just to confirm what I mean, it will only go down, so making the reading pane smaller (or disapppear) and the thread pane larger.

I would like to make it go the opposite way, upwards to make the thread pane smaller.

Is there some code, css etc that can make it happen correctly?

Thunderbird 115 has a "Unified Toolbar" (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/getting-started-thunderbird-main-window-supernova#w_2-unified-toolbar) above the tab bar (and above the menu if you show it). I don't want it. How do I remove it? I tried Customize to remove everything from it, but it still contains a "Spaces menu" that I don't want and can't remove in Customize, and a hamburger menu that I don't want because I am ok with the regular old menu, but that I also can't remove in Customize.

i had the latest version 115 and i decided to install the previous version coz some things didnt go my way. i opened it and its supernova - i lost everything like settings, my local folders etc. how can i go back to all my settings i had in this supernova version?

I just want all of my folders and sub-folders to have the same display columns! With 115, you can change any folder or sub-folder to any column organization you want, but I want them all the same. 115 changed my display columns - why couldn't you leave them alone, Thunderbird??? I can go in and change them back manually, so why were they changed at all??? I don't want to have to change each folder and its child folders individually - I have a few dozen folders, most with dozens of sub-folders. I tried the "Apply columns to ..." and selected Local Folders to change them all - none of them changed! I saw the video from Castellani claiming that TB tried to make sure that upgrading wouldn't take hours to reconfigure back to a usable state, but that's obviously not true if you have more than the one or two folders shown in the video.

Mozilla/Thunderbird -- Is it so hard to leave things as they are and just TELL us there are new features available, if we want them, instead of DESTROYING our well-used setups and forcing us to come here in hopes that someone can save us from hours of tedium just to be productive again?

Thanks to anyone who can save those of us who just want our setups back the way they were!

I was able to send emails till July 14. After that day it's been impossible to send or reply to messages from my Outlook account (I receive emails though). I have made no changes to Thunderbird's configuration since then. Basically it's the Oauth2 authentication that fails. I briefly see a browser page for authentication, wait, wait, wait and then the mail is not sent and I get an error message related to servers timeout (attached). Sorry, my interface is in Italian, but anyway the message is something like: "Unable to send email because of a timeout on the connection to the out server (SMTP) smtp.office365.com. Try again." Is this a known bug? Any ideas? It's quite annoying to use the browser interface to send messages while I am able to receive them in Thunderbird :) Thank you in advance, guys!

I hate the way the new Thunderbird version looks, can't get normal number of emails at once, can't read any of them at the bottom of the page. Please give me my old version back. This was a horrid intrusion with no warning that it wasn't just a normal update

I updated Thunderbird to Verson 115, now 115.01. The global search shows result, but when opening messages, tab is empty. Search result list is also empty. I already rebuilt global-messages-db.sqlite.

Attached error console log.

Comment: I don't think Thuderbird was ready for this Edition/Version/Transition.

Question: I have several Email Addresses/Accounts. When Thunderbird updated their Software, only a few of my Email Addresses now show under "Inbox". How do I get the other Email Addresses under that Folder/Header? I used to have an Add-on>Manually sort folders but that Add-on was disabled with the Thunderbird Update and is no longer compatible.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Since installing Supernova, I find a huge (multiple minute) delay whenever I open a folder to a new tab or window. There was zero delay on the prior version to open a folder, so it appears to be specific to Supernova. I'm surprised that no one else has mentioned it on the forums yet, so it seems it might just be something about my particular setup. Can anyone help me diagnose what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks!

... and the only way to restore them is to delete the folderCache.json, session.json, xulstore.json files from my profile directory. But each time I shut down Thunderbird and restart it, the same problem returns and I have to start over.

As this causes Thunderbird to lose all customizations to folder display, column displays, color badges, etc, and requires Thunderbird to download all message headers in my 6 email accounts, it's wasting a ton of my time.

All the accounts are still intact and it even says it's downloading email for each inbox on startup, I just can't see any of it because there's no folders displayed on the left side-bar.

And mind you, this was just a "upgrade"... when I tried to migrate my default profile to another computer (new workstation) it wouldn't load the proper profile without doing the -p flag on the executable and then after, has this same problem where it first displays proper accounts/folders but then on restart loses it all.

Luckily I found another users post online about deleting those internal cache/config files (for a completely unrelated problem with an older version of tbird) or I'd have been completely stuck.

Anyone have any suggestions on migrating BACK to the previous most stable build of pre "Supernova"? This thing isn't fully baked IMO.

And also, is there a better way to submit massive errors like this to the developers?

Thanks...

Hello all together! I have a question concerning the grouped folder functionality in TB 115. I use TB for some years now and updated to the latest version 115 the other day and the installation worked fine. All my accounts are still there and synchronize as before. But when I switch to the grouped folder view I do not see any mails there in the inbox. No content from any of my accounts at all. Also I can not find any swith in the grouped inboxfolder settings that allows me to check if the accounts are "in" there. I hope that you have some ideas for me, what is going wrong and how I can fix it. I attach two screenshots that hopefully describe the issue sufficiently.

Thanks in advance for your support!

I'm so tired of, frustrated with, and annoyed by the reduced and very cramped text viewing area display in the new Thunderbird version as of July 223!! This is because the minimum line item display of emails is now three times the previous minimum of only 3 email lines!! And there appears to be no way to reduce that minimum!!

Hello,

a few days ago I switched to the new version 115 and I find it very nice. In my daily work, I use View > Folders > Unread Folders most often.

If I now open unread mails in a folder, the folder is actually no longer an "unread folder". In the "old" version of Thunderbird, folders were refreshed at irregular intervals and folders were automatically hidden when there were no more new mails to read.

This no longer happens with 115. Here the read folders remain visible all day or until I manually select View > Folders > Unread Folders again.

I would therefore be very pleased if this old function were possible again.

Thank you and best regards from Berlin Florian
