Yesterday I upgraded to Thunderbird Version 128.7.0esr. While all of the emails in my old inbox have reappeared in my new inbox, those that I had moved to local folders are no longer accessible because my previous Local Folders are no longer visible. The only 2 local folders that I now have are Trash and Outbox. I am using MacOS 15.3 Sequoia on a desktop.

I have been to Thunderbird Profiles and can find three entries for each of my previous folders (one with a .msf suffix) and one with .sbd). In ultimate subfolders there are 2 files named after each of my previous local folders (one has the suffix .msf), but they are not folders and do not seem to have any readable content. Please see example in attached screenshot.

Can you tell me please how to reestablish my previous local folder so that I can access the emails they contained.

Thanks

Sorry if this is in the wrong place. Did not seem to be an obvious one for my question.

I go tired of the Outlook web client always trying to us AI to assist me. Installed Thunderbird ver 128.6.1 esr on a Ubuntu 24.04 system running Cinnamon desktop. All components are up-to-date (or should be as auto-update is on). System details at end of message.

Screens for mail and tasks are rock solid. The calendar jitters up and down rapidly small amounts. Not the entire page. Just the part where the calendar is displayed. Makes things a tad blurry and is tiring to look at.

Any ideas on how to resolve?

TIA

Hi. I renamed a folder and stupidly used a special character (I think that's what caused the problem). The folder is now empty. Seeing an old reply on the forum, I looked in the file list and see that the data seems to still be there but I don't know how to get it back. I've added an image of the directory. It was called .HOLD and I changed it to .Check Here -> HOLD. I changed it back to .HOLD to see if that would help but it didn't. I closed and restarted Thunderbird and that didn't help either.

Thank you for any help.

Hallo alle, seit heute Früh können wir keine Email mehr empfangen. Kurz vor acht kam die letzte und kurze Zeit später kam keine mehr an. Dies sollte eigentlich so sein, da wir aus unserem Buchungsprogramm immer eine Kopie bekommen.

Auch jetzt später im Selbstversuch kommen keine Mails an. Versenden ist problemlos möglich, jedoch können diese dann nicht im Ordner Gesendet kopiert werden.

Wir haben zwei Mailkonten. Einmal über 1blu und einmal Jimdo und natürlich in dieser Zeit keine veränderungen vorgenommen.

Vielleicht kann jemand helfen was das Problem sein könnte.

Hello,

Moving from an older Ubuntu 18.04 machine where Thunderbird is limited to version 102 to a newer machine running Mint 22 where the current version is 128.6

According to https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/upgrading-older-version-thunderbird This should work without issue but the latest version mentioned in the article was 115.

Any change since the article was written? Do I need to install older versions to handle the migration to the latest?

Alternately would using the Export / import tools be better for this task than transferring the profiles?

I'm considering deleting the account and adding it back, but I would lose some messages if I did that.

Hello & HNN. I run the same version of Thunderbird 128.6.0esr (64 bits) on 2 machines with the same Windows 11 Pro version 22H2. I configured both machines the same way (e.g. same DNS 9.9.9.9) and the only major difference is the ISP.

The mailboxes I want to config by my customer's side work pectly by my side (same params, passwd OK).

The weird thing is that on customer's side, creating a new mailbox never conclue. I mean your enter Name, email, passwd, select IMAP click on Continue > Configuration found in Mozilla ISP db. Keep IMAP (default), click done > stays forever on 'Mail for jdoe@hell.com: Sending login information' (with on some mailboxes like gmail 'Checking password...' "waiting".

Hi all,

I tried to change the appearance of thunderbird using a userChrome.css file.

  • I am sure it is located in the correct profile folder and has the correct name userChrome.css
  • The userChrome.css file is also visible in the style editor of the development tools and displays the correct contents if I edit the file.
  • I am sure that the toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets is set to true
  • I restarted tb millions of times

The contents of my userChrome.css file are currently (but I also played with different content):

/* Change background color for read messages */ treechildren::-moz-tree-row(read) {

   background-color: #f1f715 !important;  
   color: #6564cf !important; 

}

In the style editor, if i try to change the color code in one of the lines, it gives the following error messages:

Error while calling actor 'stylesheets's method 'update' document is null Actor.js:103:13

   writeError resource://devtools/shared/protocol/Actor.js:103

I am running thunderbird 128.3.1esr (64-bit) on mac sonoma 14.6.1 (23G93)

Does anybody know how to get the style sheet running?

Only a small amount of mails is transferred. Same with grab and move to the folder. I then tried to move the mails to a local folder, delete them and move them from the local folder to the destination. Same problem. They would not move to the local folder.
