Thunderbird for Android Community Forum

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?

Trying to set up thunderbird for android. I use yahoo mail for my ATT accounts. I get the following message when trying to set up Thunderbird for the first time, "incoming server settings failed. Authentication error. LOG IN invalid credentials" I updated my email password and still have the same problem. I do not have thunderbird on a desktop or laptop, or anywhere for that matter. It accesses my gmail accounts just fine. Please advise.

Hi, I just started using Thunderbird for Android and - so far - I am loving it. One thing I cannot seem to figure out is how to change the color scheme of the widget. Is it even possible to change it? I would like to set it to use the same dark theme I have for other widgets, but the Thunderbird widget stubbornly keeps its white background.

I changed my PW in the Yahoo browser. I'm on a Google pixel. I don't have Tbird on my laptop. I am trying to get back into my Yahoo mail through Tbird, buy don't see a way to change it there

After I read a new message in my Inbox, it seems to disappear from the Inbox. It still shows up in All Mail, and I can find it using the search function, but it no longer appears in my Inbox. Pixel 9a, Android v16 OS. Thanks

I have been moving slowly from other email clients to Thunderbird. I've been using Thunderbird in Windows for a while now, and decided recently to switch on Android from BlueMail to Thunderbird for Android.

In Thunderbird for Windows, I am able to use unified folders for all common folders (Spam, Sent, Trash, etc.). On Thunderbird for Android, however, only the Inbox is presented as a unified folder. I have discovered that this limitation is really problematic for me for two reasons.

First, if I am in the unified Inbox and accidentally delete a message, I have to check several different Trash folders to find the lost message, selecting each account and then that account's Trash. I anticipate responses asking why or how I could delete a message and not know what it was. With the avalanche of incoming mail the days, I often would use swipe to delete on the unified Inbox for items that are clearly not important-- but occasionally, a real message appears on the face to be junk and isn't. This is a real hassle, and forced me to turn off the swipe to delete a message interaction altogether, because it was too easy to lose messages.

Second, I have several different email addresses, and several different email providers, each of whom applies spam and trash rules differently. Two in particular frequently divert legitimate email into Spam, and I had been in the habit of scanning Spam for errant valid messages from these two providers. Being able to do this for all Spam in one location made this process much simpler.

Can anyone tell me:

• whether there is some underlying reason for this different behavior on Android,
• whether there are plans to implement such a change, or
• whether there are alternatives (like BetterBird, which does not have an Android port) that I could use?

On the PC version you can trust a sender and allow the download of images with that sender's emails The Android version seems to default, sensibly, to making you accept images each time Is this likely to change?

Currently we can send or reply to emails as plain text on Thunderbird for Android. Can we please update it to allow viewing Emails as plain text (disabling HTML) as on the desktop versions of Thunderbird, to allow for easier viewing of emails with formatting?

Looking at the screen, which identity does everybody think this message is going out as?

We observe those three possibilities. See the first image. Apparently the first possibility is the one that is chosen. I'm talking about just an email address with no name.

Okay, in the second image it turns out it was not the first possibility that was chosen it was the second possibility.

However at the bottom of the screen again we see it seems to be saying it was the first possibility.

No I'm not saying I ever expected it to be the first possibility. I'm just saying that this needs all to be 150% more clearer.

I'm not asking any questions I'm actually reporting of bug, yes.

I have thunderbird installed on my android phone and my Dell laptop. I want to be able to sync my email accounts so I don't have to delete all my emails in both places. My laptop does not give me the IMAP option, only POP3. Thanks for any advise!!

Thunderbird does not import current messages from Gmail, it lags several hours behind. For example, Gmail will show new messages arriving at 9 am but Thunderbird shows most recent messages arriving at 12 am. I have checked settings and it seems like syncing is set correctly.
