Hi!

Trying to add new account on latest Thunderbird instillation, added information/configuration what I use on another computer and in the end it says: Component returned failure code: 0x804b000a (NS_ERROR_MALFORMED_URI) [nslOService.newURI]

Checked 10x for typing errors and it says same error. These account settings works great on previous versions wihtout Account Hub

How can I solve this?

Best regards,

Thunderbird keeps bringing in emails automatically. I don't want it to download anything until I ask it to. This just started when i had to reinstall Tbird after it stopped working for me. 1. It downloads emails automatically 2. I only want emails upon my specific request. 3. I can no longer find any switch to allow me to turn of auto downloads.

My Thunderbird Account was updated by TB on 2 September. Since then all of my new emails go to Trash. Although I've tried the various responses to such questions, I've been unable to change the problem and get my new emails to come into my Inbox. I'd very much like your assistance please. Thank you.

How can I specify which Thunderbird account is used when MAILTO is used in html? I know I can change the account to what I want after the new message window comes up but I always forget.

I have an extension that I depend on and it is not compatible with the current version of Thunderbird so I need to backup until it starts working again. How can I download earlier version of Thunderbird?

Logged into Thunderbird this morning. On current version. Noticed that the local trash folder had emails in it. I have not changed any of the multiple account setting. Send some test emails fro 2 accounts and they ended up in the local folder trash. What has happened. I want this redirection to stop. What other demons have been created by the current update. HOW CAN i fix this problem?

As of September 3, 2026 all my new emails are going into a random folder instead of the inbox. This is also happening on my wife's PC plus and we are not getting the emails to our iPhones until we get out of Thunderbird. What has changed? This has not happened before.

Was on version 115, had this problem. Updated to version 155, same problem. One of the email accounts I set up on Thunderbird is redacted1@lake48.net, registered with 123-Reg. However, this is a forwarding address and has no email server, which is why I am getting the error now.

Messages addressed to redacted1@lake48.net are forwarded to redacted2@lake48.net, which does have a server, My system was to download from there and use a rule to divert the incoming message to my redacted1@lake48.net Inbox. This has worked OK until now. Thunderbird gives me this error right at the start and then does not respond, so I cannot get in to investigate account settings, and cannot access emails in other accounts such as gmail. 123-Reg has today changed its system, assuring me I don't need to change anything. Clearly I do, but I can't get in to change it.

What should I do to resolve this? I have no other access to my emails.

Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: <anonymous@[10.0.0.31]>: Sender address rejected: not owned by user a1.914306843. Please check the message recipient "christine.krieger@a1.net" and try again.

why do I get this on new download

I installed Thunderbird on my new laptop, then imported the profile from my old laptop

The main screen has, under "Inbox", folders for Drafts, Sent, Trash, Archive and Spam, which are being used by the program

Folders for Drafts, Sent and Trash also appear under "Local Folders" (along with Outbox) and these aren't being used by the program.

How do I get rid of these duplicate folders? "Spam" had a delete option, so that was easy, but the others don't.

I tried the two suggestions for a previous "Duplicates" question but they didn't resolve things.

Thank you

hi, snap thunderbird 155.0-1 ubuntu 24.04 keeps asking for passwords of all email accounts after upgrading thunderbird. all passwords are correct and they were not changed. the issue started today after thunderbird was upgraded to 155.0-1. this new version seems to have touched on oauth: https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/155.0/releasenotes/

What’s New

- S/MIME popup shows signature, digest, encryption algorithms and key sizes

- Default address book for manually added contacts configurable with mail.addr_book.add_item_default_uri

- Enterprise policy DisableQRExport can disable QR export

- OAuth add-ons can override built-in settings for selected domains and hostnames

- Manual account config streamlined with Exchange, Graph, and custom OAuth support

- Custom OAuth support for IMAP and SMTP servers

- PKCE and external browser fields added to custom OAuth settings

- Enterprise policy DisableExperimentalFeatures for disabling experimental features

any idea how to fix this? thanks

I have had Thunderbird from the time I acquired my Mac computer. This week it started to do something new. After a restart I opened Thunderbird. A box came up that says across the top System Integration. The cursor balloons, and hasn't stopped for the time I powered the computer, as least fifteen minutes. You know how the program icons are in a dock across the bottom. With other browsers open, hitting the Thunderbird icon doesn't bring its window into the forefront. This needs either a reset, or possibly a backup first. Is there a quicker way to fix this? Thanks in advance. I am not using a VPN; but I also have Thunderbird on my Windows 11. You might have seen a more recent thread on that installation. I included a screenshot. It was easier here to do that than on the Windows 11. On the Mac, I just had to use Activity Monitor to close out of Thunderbird in order to get its version.

Outlook.jpの個人アカウントをThunderbirdで使用しています。 IMAPは outlook.office365.com / 993 / SSL/TLS / OAuth2 で正常に受信できます。

SMTPは smtp-mail.outlook.com / 587 / STARTTLS / OAuth2 で送信すると、 535 Authentication unsuccessful, SmtpClientAuthentication is disabled for the Mailbox. と返されます。

smtp.office365.com / 587 / STARTTLS / OAuth2 も試しましたが、こちらは接続タイムアウトになりました。 MicrosoftアカウントのOAuth2認証と2段階認証は完了しています。 Outlook Web版・新しいOutlookでは送受信正常です。 Microsoftサポートには問い合わせましたが、Thunderbird側へ確認するよう案内されました。

この状態でThunderbird側にまだ確認すべき設定がありますか？ それともMicrosoft側でSMTP AUTHが無効になっている状態でしょうか？

Hello,

I am struggling to set up calendar and contacts sync between Thunderbird (v155@ubuntu26.04) and my google account. I use a university account to access google services, so my google account is not some.name@gmail.com but some.name@myuniversity.cz. I understand that Thunderbird somehow needs to invoke OAuth2 process with google, but I do not know, what to fill in the "Hostname" or "Location" fields for Contacts and Calendar, respectively. Any help? Thank you.

All of the incoming messages are going to Trash. This includes messages I have not indicated as trash. I get no new messages to my inbox. Started today, 09/04/2026.

Starting today (September 3), ALL of my received emails are being put into the Spam folder instead of the Inbox.

FYI, I have been running Thunderbird (TB) for years and have not recently set up any new filters.

I'm currently running Thunderbird 64-bit version 155.0 under Windows 11 Home version 25H2. I am also running Bitdefender Total Security, but I have turned off its Antispam function, both under my usual Standard User account and the Admin account.

I have tried:

1. Going into TB Settings|Privacy & Security|Spam and clicking on "Reset Training Data." 2. After closing TB, I deleted the training.dat file in my TB profile folder and restarted TB. 3. Right-clicked on my Inbox and Spam folders and clicked on "Repair Folder." 4. Exited TB, copied my profile folder to an external HD, uninstalled TB and reinstalled TB after downloading from the official download site. 5. Rebooted my PC.

None of these approaches has worked to solve my problem.

Thanks for any help you can give.
