Thunderbird for Android Community Forum

I like very much Thunderbird very much, but I had to move recently to use an Android device, that is my main computer now. I normally work with four email accounts, and I sometimes need to move emails across different accounts. I found out that it is not working on the mobile app. Are there any plans to include this functionality in Thunderbird? Thank you very much.

I've been using Thunderbird since it was first made available for Android, and I've used it successfully until recently. I have a new Outlook email address that I cannot sign into even though the Outlook email I have been using with Thunderbird since the beginning has never given me any issues. I get the "user authenticated but not connected" error. What can I do to resolve this issue so that I can have all my emails together in one app. Just to make things clear my old Outlook account which uses the email in writing you from connects flawlessly. It's a new one that is giving me issues. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Is it possible to make Thunderbird make better use of screen realestate on large devices such as tablets?

In my opinion it should be possible to get a view that is more similar to the desktop version, where the content is laid out in 3 columns:

1. List of accounts and mailboxes
2. List of messages in the selected folder/mailbox
3. The email/message that has been selected.

See attached for what it looks like in the gmail app, for comparison. On Gmail they only have two columns, but even on there it's making effective use of the space.

1) There is a layout problem in the accounts display on the left hand side, where the email addresses are sometimes obscured by the titles of the pages (see screenshot). 2) Also, is it possible to adjust the labels of so that they reflect the initials of two-word titles? So Websites Wanted would be WW, not WE, and Prague Story PS, not PR? Or even upload avatars instead of lettered labels? Thanks!

I'm using the Thunderbird Android App and I would like to highlight incoming messages from a specific sender and ideally receive a push notification. I would also like to increase the interval for checking/updating my email account linked to Thunderbird. How do I do this?

Thanks for your help!

Hi, I have an issue with the Android mobile versionof Thunderbird (16.1). I cannot open PDF sent to me, neither through clicking it in the app, nor by downloading it and open it with other applications. The PDFs themself must bei ok, cause I can open them on desktop. Also I don't have issues with opening PDF reaching me by other sources. My os is Android 15. Do you have a fix for it or do I have to wait till it's fixed by a patch? Kind regards

Hi,

I host a autodiscover config (config-v1.1.xml) on my local mailserver, when I want to add my local mail account to thunderbird it sees the configuration, but throws an error:

Configuration found This configuration is not trusted.

I host a local CA, and have imported the CA root certificate into the android certificate store. But I don't think this is the problem, because Thunderbird doesn't connect to my imap server prior to throwing the error. (this is working, I can browse the local link without any certificate warning)

This is my config-v1.1.xml:

<clientConfig version="1.1">

 <emailProvider id="home.arpa">
   <domain>home.arpa</domain>

   <displayName>Local email server</displayName>
   <displayShortName>local-server</displayShortName>

   <incomingServer type="imap">
     <hostname>mail.home.arpa</hostname>
     <port>993</port>
     <socketType>SSL</socketType>
     <authentication>password-cleartext</authentication>
     <username>%EMAILADDRESS%</username>
   </incomingServer>

   <outgoingServer type="smtp">
     <hostname>mail.home.arpa</hostname>
     <port>465</port>
     <socketType>SSL</socketType>
     <authentication>password-cleartext</authentication>
     <username>%EMAILADDRESS%</username>
   </outgoingServer>
 </emailProvider>

</clientConfig>

I've tried changing "authentication" to other methods, but this doesn't seem to matter.

Any Idea?
