I went out of the USA on May to Ecuador and Peru, and on the same day the Android version of Thunderbird stopped retrieving new email from the server. I have used Thunderbird pointed to the same server on Windows 11 and Android successfully for years. I thought it might be something to do with being out of the country, but now I'm back in the USA, and sync account on Android still does not retrieve new mail that has accumulated since May 4th. I've been following my email using a webmail access so I know there's lots of new mail. I've closed and reopened Thunderbird on the Android, and I've tried sync account with the webmail access closed. I have not yet tried Thunderbird on my windows 11 laptop because I'm still not home yet. Any suggestions welcomed, thank you for your help!

I was adding some filters for senders to move emails to my local folders and such, and then I ran the filters. For whatever reason, when I ran the filters this time, thunderbird also seemingly deleted all emails from some of my web email inboxes. The only one that wasn't affected by this inbox wipe was my school email(gmail provider). How can I prevent this from happening again?

I have to find a new email carrier. 1) Is there a cost to Thunderbird email and is it the same as Thundermail? 2) Can I transfer my current email messages to be saved? 3) Can I use Thunderbird mail inside of Microsoft Outlook like is the case with my current email? 4) And current email is embedded inside of Gmail on my mobile phone. How would Thunderbird work on my phone?

I am in the midst of the long process of moving most (not all!) of my gmail from the gmail server to TBird, using filters as discussed in this thread.

I've started by first using filters on less important emails (ie so that no true disaster occurs if something goes horribly wrong). As I do so, I have questions!

For example, let's say I use a filter to: copy all the emails from @someone.org to a local folder then delete those emails (from the server)

What happens if one of those emails happens to be within a thread, including emails from people who don't match the filter (ie are not @someone.org). Have I broken the thread forever, ie, has something gone horribly wrong? If so, how do I prevent this behavior/have the entire thread move along with the targeted value? If not, I don't see how I can move email without breaking threads, which is a bit of a problem.

(Also - whoops, I see I should update, but the question remains.)

I have three AOL accounts for various reasons. Until recently, all three were available and working in Thunderbird - no issues. A few days ago on start-up, I had a pop-up requesting indicating that my password for one of these accounts had not been recognised in Thunderbird. The account was working fine on another device, ipad. Re-entering the password didn't give me access to the account, and in desperation I deleted the account from Thunderbird. I then tried to re-create it, but although Thunderbird shows all the correct(?) details in the account settings, it actually just gets all the ...box contents from another of my accounts. Does anyone have any ideas how Thunderbird references existing account when add a new mail account, or how to stop Thunderbird referencing an existing account please?

My thunderbird would not open. Said the file location couldn’t be found. I read online it recommended that I uninstall the application and reinstall. This fixed my issue with being able to access thunderbird but during the install all of my local folders were removed. Is there anyway I can get these back? I also lost all of my address book contacts.

Hi There,

I am trying to add my new email address to the thunderbird app for Windows and running into issues syncing it through IMAP settings. The process seems to go smoothly until it gets to the point where I have to enter my email password. After I enter my password and hit "continue" I get the following error message:

Component returned failure code: 0x804b000a (NS_ERROR_MALFORMED_URI) [nsIIOService.newURI]

I have attached the screen shots of my process, as well as the IMAP and SMTP settings from my email provider.

Any help I can get in troubleshooting this error would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Tim

Is syncronization bidirectional with IMAP accounts?

I'm having a lot of trouble with moving my years of POP mail accounts to a new computer using IMAP.

I'm starting with my mail AOL account but Synchronizing TB the web account folder structure just isn't working. My initial installation went fine, but I can't seem to modify the folders and use message filters.

The initial installation basically duplicated the web account folder structure automatically, but making modifications isn't working.

I can't even delete test folders I set up on TB. I select them and try to delete, but they never are deleted. On IMAP accounts, how does the sync work?

My pop email has stopped collecting email, so I guess there is no turning back at this point.

Po użyciu funkcji „Porządkuj folder” w Thunderbirdzie część wiadomości w folderze Odebrane zaczęła wyświetlać się bez Tematu i Nadawcy/Korespondenta. Daty wiadomości są widoczne.

Konto działa przez IMAP. W webmailu wszystkie wiadomości są widoczne poprawnie wraz z tematami i nadawcami, więc problem występuje tylko w Thunderbirdzie.

My inbox "SUBJECT" and "FROM" are not correlating. Thunderbird is attaching the incorrect email to the subject.

HELP! My inbox "SUBJECT" and "FROM" are not matching. Thunderbird keeps jumbling my emails in my inbox so that the sender's email does NOT correlate to the correct email they sent... The order of the different columns in the inbox do not lineup - Thunderbird changes the sender name, or the subject. Hope that makes sense. For example I click on an email from my boss regarding a shift and an email from Voile skis comes up about some new products. The subject is the same one that is in the email but the "FROM" is my boss' email! Please help, I have quit re-opened, opened in "troubleshoot" mode, made sure I am in the newest update, etc. Thanks

Hi, I was trying to find a particular email and was playing with a couple of filters. I ended up with all of my inbox in alphabetical order. In other words, all the senders' names starting with A are at the top, and conversely all the Z' s are at the bottom. How do I put them back in the order received please? Many thanks, John.
