Thunderbird Support Forum

Hello

I've noticed if I have the same label setup on 2 pc's and I label a couple of mails on 1 pc, it doesn't sync with the other one and vice versa. Is there a way to make them sync? Rather annoying.

I have version 91.6 and have major problems: 1. It constantly freezes up - Almost every time I try to open an email the error message "Thunderbird is freezing" comes up. Sometimes it will be 3-4-5 minutes. 2. Every time I open it up, it asks for email password for each account. I put password in AND "SAVE" for each email account (4). I know they are there as when I go to settings and check on passwords, they are shown. But Thunderbird will still ask me evrytime. I will enter password and end up hitting "retry" 4-5-6 or more times before it will download my emails. I have wasted hours every day on downloading and trying to read my emails. I have so many folders filled with emails that I need to keep for followup from the last 3-4 years since Win10 would not let me use Eudora anymore or I would switch to Mail or Outlook. I had Eudora for over 20 years and had less problems in total over that time than I have every day with Thunderbird. I have reinstalled program several times over the past few months hoping to solve problem to no avail. To make sure it was not TWC or my computer, I tried Outlook. Whhat I got was instant downloads, no hesitations and instant opening of the email. If I did not hve to keep my old messages, I would switch, BUT, in this day and age of technology, I don't understand why Thunderbird ahs so many problems

SOLVED!! (see Solution at bottom) How do I completely turn off BLOGS & NEWS FEEDS (B&NFs). This function somehow became active in my TB; I made no known changes to cause this function to become active. I want the Inbox Screen to always look like #1 Screen Shot Image.

When I open a link to a web page in an email message, I get the message: "You already have a subscription for this feed". This may be preceded by the message "Verifying the Link", then get the "You already ..." message the next time time the link is clicked on. In both cases the link is prevented from opening and B&NFs has been inserted into the left hand panel on my Inbox Page . This is seen in #2 Screen Shot Image.

In the left hand panel on the Inbox screen I right click B&NFs>select Settings>and get #3 Screen Shot Image. Then select Account Actions>Remove Account>[and remove the account]. see #4 Screen Shot Image.

When I return to the Inbox, B&NFs is removed and the screen again looks like #1 Screen Shot. But if I click again on a link in an email, the denial sequence repeats.

The link from the Mozilla Support suggestion “This does not solve my problem” generates the "You already have a subscription for this feed" message. So I cannot respond to say the problem is not solved; I have to again enter my request on the “TB request for help form”!

Solution: FF was not set as default browser. So, FF>Settings>General>Startup>"Always check if FF is your default browser" box is checked, get a smiley face, and the Blogs and News Feeds no longer interferes. I have no idea why this makes a difference, but it does.

Edit: I believe I now know how to get back to this thread.

Dzień dobry, Czy istnieje dodatek do Mozilla Firefox ( lub inny sposób) aby dodać do subskrypcji wszystkie możliwe foldery oraz podfoldery w skrzynkach pocztowych ?? Zależy mi aby wszystkie foldery/ podfoldery/ wiadomości były widoczne w programie pocztowym. Wiem, że można to zmienić ręcznie, natomiast jest tego ogrom.

I was looking for help on Thunderbird and saw this YouTube video and the Thunderbird looked like figure number 1, but my Thunderbird looks like figure number 2. How do i get it to look like figure number 1?

All Emails received have thousands of unwanted text added to the bottom of the original message. Includes Microsoft Text, text from numerous companies, information of extraneous text that was not wanted.

Each email takes a large amount of time to view, due to the massive amount of text.

How do I get rid of this unwanted text ?.

Many Thanks

Hello, my boss working with Tunderbird he complained to me that the program save his email account (google email) password even he didn't want to and wanted to write any time when he start. I go to the menu of saved passwords ... I delete the password for the account and when I log in to Google again, although I say I don't want to save the password, the Thunderbird saves it automatically without asking me. This is obviously a problem with 91.8.1. I try to install to another PC but the problem is same.

Can you help me plase?

Suddenly to synchronize Thunderbird folders with my iCloud folders I need to do everything all over again to see all my folders. Before they would come up automatically. After a restart of Thunderbird nearly all folders of iCloud disappear and I have to struggle with "subscribe" to get them back. I had also installed "manually sort folders", that worked but I have disabled it as it seems not to help. Is there a way to keep all folders active even when restarting Thunderbird? It happens only with iCloud mail, other email are OK.

what link do I need? I have a problem sending emails from Thunderbird & was wondering what link I need to direct my question to the right people who can assist

I do have an error message I can send you, but would like to know where exactly to send my question before I attach the error message. But I guess I will attach it to this message just in case you can help

Thank you

The Bruce Porter above is correct but as you can see the highlighted Email is wrong - it's actually for Stuart Zall!

I restarted Tbird in troubleshooting mode and that didn't help. Very frustrating to not be able to correctly sort by recipient (in my Sent folder) nor trust it really is the person I'm looking for!

Thanks, Kaarl

My desk top has been turned off for 3 months as I was out of town. I am back and fired it up. When I attempt to send emails I get this error message

Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: Please turn on SMTP Authentication in your mail client. c-73-25-244-35.hsd1.or.comcast.net ([10.0.0.116]) [73.25.244.35]:57209 is not permitted to relay through this server without authentication.. Please check the message recipient "jmatthews@bhy.net" and try again.

Hello, My PGP key for one of my accounts stopped working while I was trying to draft a message. At first, the message said that my PGP key couldn't be located and thus my draft could not be saved (I believe I have all my drafts mandated to save as encrypted). I decided to delete the key from Thunderbird and try re-importing it. At first, it said the key had been imported successfully. However, when trying to select the key from my account page, nothing comes up. It's just blank. I quit Thunderbird several times and re-opened, only to get the same result. Now, after my most recent app restart, Thunderbird simply won't import my PGP key at all. Other accounts still have their PGP keys active, but not this one. I'm at a loss. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Is this a new bug? I'm running the latest version of Thunderbird (91.8.0 (64-bit)) on macos. I've attached images. Please help! Thanks!!

Is there an add-on that would allow me to generate a tf-idf list of statistically significant words in a Thunderbird folder? Ideally, I'd like control parameters like:

1. search parameters (e.g. by date range, include/exclude addresses...)
2. number of words/tokens returned (this is less important: I can manually cut)

If not, has anyone seen something like gensim applied to Thunderbird folders?

I'm upgrading from windows 10 to windows 11. Will Thunderbird make the transition without problems? Same question for Firefox.

Will I need to completely reinstall and reconfigure Thunderbird and Firefox after the Windows 11 upgrade?

Hi! My beloved Mozilla program gave me an error message when trying to open it this morning :(

Error: Platform version 91.7.0 is not compatible with minVersion > = 91.8.0 maxVersion < = 91.8.0

Program won't open at all. Any way to resolve this problem? Or at least recover files? I've used Mozilla for years to organize important emails...clearly that was a bad idea now. Please help? Thanks! Lisa

My display name is stuck on "me", I really want to change it This glitch showed up recently, I believe when I "up-graded" to version 78.9.1 before that, it was my name. account settings  : "your name" shows my name, but all my e-mails show "me" instead of what is clearly written in the "your name" field really irritateing ! any suggestions ??

Hi It seem I cannot send Emails' it comes up with this message Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: [TPG-A02] Authentication denied. User jdeboer8@tpg.com.au is banned from using SMTP AUTH due to previous abuse. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again. I have checked that my Email address is correct

Opened Thunderbird yesterday afternoon - all as normal no problems, nothing wrong. Opened Thunderbird last night - all accounts and emails disappeared TB asking for "new account setup" Tried to resolve by renaming the default profile to my profile Every time I set the new profile to "default" and restart TB reverts to the original default?
