All emails in my trash folder disappeared. I do not know if this is due to something I did, or some other reason. Is there any way to restore the deleted emails?

I have at least one file that won't display on Version 149. However, the file and it's MSF are both still on my hard drive. I've tried a lot of things to get it to display, but nothing has helped.

Hi, I have changed my PC and in setting up Thunderbird I find I can only add two accounts. I cannot find a way to add that third address and account. I am looking for help with that, please.

Hi, What is the "@?" for Thunderbird? For gmail it's @gmail.com for hotmail it's "@hotmail.com. Eventually I want to rid myself of gmail. Thanks

I noticed that when replying to messages that have a reply-to header, my own message is not included in the thread with the first message. There is, however, a small "reply" icon next to the email in the list. Is there a setting I need to toggle, or should I report a bug?

I am running Linux Mint and Thunderbird 140.9.0esr (64-bit). When I try to setup my Comcast email account I get errors and the program basically stops. For example "can't access property "cleanup", this [#configVerifier] is undefined". When I allow Thunderbird to do the initial search and follow its recommendation I get this error: Error creating account Incoming server already exists

I have Tbird running on two other computers THAT HAVE BEEN TURNED OFF. I noted that if I tried setting up Tbird on my newest Mint installation, i.e., Tbird running on my Windows machine, it would also fail to make the account.

I am at a loss as to what is going on. Any ideas???

I have recently moved to Linux, Ubuntu, and Thunderbird. I can't figure out how to make bullets or numbered lists.

• There
• Are
• Buttons in
• This dialoge box

1. How do
2. I
3. Find them
4. In Thunderbird?

Also, why to I get hash tags when I choose numbered list, see above.

Best regards, Mica

I have Thunderbird version 149.0.1 installed and set up to display the Classic View, showing the Folder pane, Message List Header pane, and the Message pane. I have two accounts - my email account and Local Folders. All my email is routed to the Local Folders for storage on the PC. I have a number of messages in the Local Folders Inbox, and the headers show in the Message List Header pane. This message header is marked as read, and as spam, but I can not do anything with it. I can not change the status (either to unread, or not span), nor can I delete it. The actual message appears to have been deleted - if I select the header, the Message pane is either blank, or displays the message previously selected. If I open the message a new tab, the contents are blank, and if I select View Message Source, that window is empty (blank). I have restarted Thunderbird several, once in Windows safe mode, and that header remains. I can read all the other messages in the Inbox, change their status, or delete them. The attached image shows the shows the message in question as selected.

How do I delete that (@#$I*@%#@$%) message header? Thanks to anyone who can help!

Thunderbird Version: 137.0 Problem: I have 2 e-mails in my inbox that I can not delete. I have read them and then I tried to delete them using the delete key, they would not delete. Now when I access Thunderbird, the message pane on the right side of the screen is blank; no message content. The from/to/subject lines above the content space do have content. I tried deleting them by deleting the global-messages-db in my profile folder; and having Thunderbird rebuilt the file. Did not help. What next steps should I take to delete these 2 e-mails?

Thanks.

New Thunderbird version 149.0.1 on a MacBook Air (M1,2020), macOS Big Sur vers. 11.7.11 The "write new message" window (composing a new message) does not display anymore the upper line in which I could chose the language (spelling) and add attachments. How can I have it back? This is really annoying. Also by default I get "English US" but I want always "English UK", and Thunderbird switch always back ... also annoying! Thank you for your quick help. Best regards RB Switzerland X@bluewin.ch

Before I recently (& reluctantly) upgraded to TB 140.8.1esr, I used to be able to paste the following in the Error Console to get a URI for an email message (or template) that I wanted to access from my calendaring app (EccoPro -- yeah, I know, one of those "from my dying hands" things, but it has never been equaled much less surpassed, just choked in the cradle by MS Office).

var hdr = gFolderDisplay.selectedMessage; alert(hdr.folder.getUriForMsg(hdr));

I would highlight the message I wanted to use, hit Shft-Ctrl -J, and paste that in the console.

I would get a notice with something like this which I could copy

"mailbox-message://nobody@Local%20Folders/Templates#10"

I could then put a clickable link in my calendaring app to run

"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe" -mail "mailbox-message://nobody@Local%20Folders/Templates#10"

That message would open. Then I could hit Ctrl-E to edit it, paste as needed, and send .

This worked very well. I did not come up with it. I struck gold with Google and just copied it. With something similar to AutoHotKey I was able to automate it.

Now those URI codes no longer launch at all, and I cannot get new ones because when I paste

var hdr = gFolderDisplay.selectedMessage; alert(hdr.folder.getUriForMsg(hdr));

into Error Console I get

Uncaught ReferenceError: gFolderDisplay is not defined
   <anonymous> debugger eval code:1
   getEvalResult resource://devtools/server/actors/webconsole/eval-with-debugger.js:306
   evalWithDebugger resource://devtools/server/actors/webconsole/eval-with-debugger.js:218

   evaluateJSAsync resource://devtools/server/actors/webconsole.js:788
   makeInfallible resource://devtools/shared/ThreadSafeDevToolsUtils.js:103

If I had known what I was doing in the first place, I might be able to adapt to this version of Thunderbird. Something obviously changed in how the Error Console operates or something.

Does anyone know anything about what command could generate a message URI so I could open it from another app using the command line?

Recently my email subfolders stopped being visible on my Thunderbird desktop. They are still visible and accessible on my Thuderbird Android app on my phone. Any suggested remedies I see call for steps that I don't seem to have in my settings. My desktop SW version shows as 148.0.1 (up to date)

Why am I not able to add a 3rd IMAP email account?

Everything comes up like before for IMAP accounts, but it does not recognize the email or password, for some reason, and I have checked them over and over.

I also tried adding manually, but although it adds the email account name, the connections don't work, and there is not much information to even adjust that.
