Thunderbird for Android Community Forum

Yesterday I integrated my email into the desktop using my email as the user and my password. I also downloaded the mobile app for Thunderbird on my Android upon which I was not able to use either the user or the password to log on. The response was simply I do not have an account. Trying to mitigate this. Thank you - Brian

I'm having issues sending and outbound email and I'm not getting any error messages from the client. I have confirmed that the email server settings are correct. I am unfortunately unable to find a log or error console on the app to further trouble shoot all I get is a notification of "unable to send mail" with no error codes.

Hi, i have been using Thunderbird on Android with Talkback since I am blind. The app is excellent, but I found a bug. When I use the search function for example filtering the emails for a certain expression, the result list is not accessible with Talkback. Phone Oneplus 12R, firmware android are the lateAst. Please, identify the issue and fix it.

Hey dears,

my thunderbird on my Android opens everytime with the outbox of one of my mail accounts... I closed the app, logged out/in, nothing changed. It doesn't matter which mail I open before I close the app. Every time it starts with the outbox (there is nothing in the outbox). How to fix this?

Thank you :)

When I deleted an email, it used to be moved to the 'deleted mail' folder, so I could always retrieve it if necessary. After the latest update this is no longer happening and the emails just disappear. How do I get this function back?

The app is perfect for me, except the text in the inbox page is so small 😭

Can this be changed? Can we get an option for it in settings?

It would be wonderful to have font size and style options.

Thanks

When using an Outlook account in Thunderbird for Android, I frequently encounter authentication and connection issues. Sometimes the app shows an authentication failure notification, and checking incoming server settings results in the error: "User is authenticated but not connected".

I have a couple of folders I use a lot in my email account, and I regularly need to dig into them. The desktop lets a user favorite a folder to its sidebar for fast access. Can the Android app do similar?

Hi, the android Thunderbird mobile app shows all email accounts in one folder and is very confusing!

is it possible to view each email account in a separate folder? thank you

Device: Google Pixel 10 XL, Android 17 App: Thunderbird Beta for Android 24.0b2 Desktop: Thunderbird 157.0.1 (64-bit, release channel)

I imported my eight accounts from Thunderbird Desktop using Tools > Export for Mobile and scanned the QR codes in the beta app. The scan worked and the accounts imported, but setup had several confusing steps:

1. For each Google account, an Android screen appeared saying "select which apps to restore", as if I were setting up a new phone. I didn't know what to select, so I skipped it each time. 2. After skipping, a blank accounts.google.com page appeared. I never saw a normal Google permission screen. 3. After the last account, the app showed a screen asking me to enter an email address and would not let me continue. When I pressed back and reopened the app, all accounts were there and receiving mail, so it seems to be a leftover add-account prompt after a successful import.

For comparison, with the stable app, the same accounts imported into K-9 Mail with the same kind of QR code with no restore-apps screen, no blank page, and no extra prompt. Gmail accounts signed in normally.

The accounts work, so this is about confusing setup steps rather than lost data.

Expected: Google accounts sign in through the normal permission flow without the Android restore-apps screen, and the app goes to the inbox after import without asking for another account.

Hi team. Recently i download through Google play Thunderbird app. I follow the steps as the web says to import the data through Qr code. Everything was fine i saw all my emails, folders etc. I push all my folders to have instant notifications as I am expecting emails (and i have delays i notice). I asked about these delays long time ago and i notice that the updates are every 15 minutes the earliest. After a while i had to active the notifications from my android phone. Even my settings in my laptop (server settings) are the same with my app (Oath2 , SSL/TLS ) i had the attached message. Please advice. Kind regards Charalampos
