Thunderbird Support Forum

I am on Linux mint 21.1 Cinnamon and using Thunderbird 102.11.0. I saw the current version of Thunderbird on their official website is 102.11.2. I didn't get the update yet. So, how can I get the update automatically to use the latest version of Thunderbird on Linux Mint 21.1 Cinnamon ? Thanks in advance and awaiting to have a good feedback.

Dear Mozilla, Actually I have 2 instances of TB 102.11 on my Linux 22.04. One I guess the original, can be listed with apt list --installed and the other that I installed with flatpak flatpak list

Unfortunatellly I configured and starte to use the one cane from flatpak. I have set everything, mail rules, digital signature, . . . etc. Now the actual problem is that the ImportExportTools NG add-on is not able to export my mails. I guess the reason is that I have 2 installed TB instances on my machine. Please advise how I can realize which one I configured and use? 2nd request: how to remove the redundant TB instance while the necessary will not suffer any injury? Thanks. BR,

 Laci.

All pictures sent to me do not download in Thunderbird as an acceptable format to open and save or print. They all turn to "part 1.1" or 1.2 from a jpg or png, etc. I have to open them on my server, then save them to my computer without sending them to my PC.

Hello,

I've migrated Firefox and Thunderbird profiles from %appdata% dozens of times now, but noticed something odd last week when I migrated my previous computer's Thunderbird profile folder to new. I use Saved Searches extensively, and have dozens of them in various 'real' folders. (Real, as in, when I log into the web-based email systems that I have loaded into Thunderbird, I can see the folders - they just appear completely empty, which is of course accurate, because they only contain "thunderbird" things, not real email things.

My work requires me to use Office 365, and I had a few Saved Searches right on the "root" of that Account. Those ones survived the migration just fine and are working. However, I had a few subfolders on my old computer, things like "Companies" and "Coworkers" that each had a dozen saved searches in it for, obviously, companies I email with, and emails with specific coworkers.

None of those saved searches made it through the migrations; their folders are still there, but they are completely empty.

Is there any way I can do a migration that will capture these saved searches OR, even better, is there simply some internal database contents from my old computer I can get at, then just copy and paste that into the database of my new Thunderbird install? That'd save me some time not needing to migrate my 15GB thunderbird profile again.

I just found it interesting that my Saved Searches on the "Root" made it over, but the ones in Folders, did not!

Hello,

I had Tbird installed on a WIN7 laptop a couple years ago, but was not happy with it.

Moved on to Mailbird for a year or so, but not completely happy there either. Search function was VERY weak, and i have about 100,000 emails.

I thought I would give Tbird another look.

I decided to try to download it to a new WIN10 laptop, to get a completely CLEAN setup. My old one (on the WIN7) actually works.

After I downloaded it to the new WIN10 laptop, AT FIRST it tried to verify the account. That failed. Then, somehow, it seems to have skipped right over that step. In the meantime, I read (too late to help) that I should not input the password until AFTER the verification.

At this point, I cannot get back to the "VERIFY" step, and the auto-install has not worked. All the server settings appear to be the same as on the old WIN7 version. It just won't connect to the email and begin downloading.

I'm linking in to an old NETSCAPE account (via AOL), on a POP3 basis.

At this point, I've uninstalled and then re-installed the software about three times. Nothing seems to help.

what am i doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

A few years ago Verizon outsourced its (POP only) email to AOL.When addint a verizon email account to Thunderbird, automatic account setup selects the old defunct Verizon POP server. AOL's imap server at imap.aol.com (ssl port 993) would be a better choice. Also, AOL supports OAUTH3 but I canot get it turned on correctly, maybe you could offer a how-to see [https://help.aol.com/articles/verizon.../verizon-move-to-aol-mail-setting-up-your-new-aol-account-in-a-third-party-email-program-or-mobile-device-imap]

Hello ! I can't reinstall gmail on Thunderbird. Until recently, I had never encountered such problems. Now I get the following notification: "Unable to log in at server. probably wrong configuration, username or passsword". Can anyone help me? It's very frustrating. Thank you very much. Patrick

I'm trying to move my profile data to a different local drive. I copied the profiles directory, and edited the profile.ini to point to the new location. When I start it up, for some of the accounts I end up with an inbox (in thunderbird) with mutliple (100s) of inbox files like

INBOX-1 INBOX-10 INBOX-100

When I look at the directory these are all .msf files.

How can I combine them into a single inbox file? It seemed to happen on two imap accounts, one on outlook, one on gmail.
