I have used Thunderbird for years to access one mail account on AOL. In November, it suddenly quit working. In my efforts to fix it, I wound up with 2 sets of inboxes. How do I combine them now that I've downloaded & installed Thunderbird, which upgraded my program and reset the AOL connection? All mail is now going into a newer inbox, but I want it in the older inbox?

Trying to get a formal account with Thunderbird, and fully willing to pay for it. I have been locked out of using Thunderbird because I have never had a password for Thunderbird, starting from when it was Netscape. My only access to signing in and creating a formal Thunderbird account is a small laptop. Its screen is too small to show the entire form, so I cannot complete the captcha picture part -- can see three of probably four boxes (select all the traffic lights), and cannot see the 'Enter' or whatever is next.

For some reason, instead of the linked content in my received messages functioning properly, when I mouse over them all that I get is the little magnifying glass that will zoom in or zoom out on the content: the links no longer function. I have tried full reboot, but that had zero effect. I am on a Mac with OS 15.1.1 using Thunderbird 128.6.1esr (64-bit).

I like using Thunderbird, but if this continues I will have to go back to using another client or simply revert to using the webmail version of gmail.

Sigh.

my wife's computer uses Spectrum webmail and Thunderbird to access her email. She uses Thunderbird all the time. Last night Spectrum did something so her password was deleted. We finally got webmail up and working with a new password, however, when she tries to access Thunderbird a message comes up and says to log into mail.brighthouse.com and put in the password. We tried this several times and the same message comes up without letting us use Thunderbird. Sorry we are seniors and this is driving us crazy,as my wife loves TBird.

I created a folder with a name that has diacritics used in the Lithuanian language: Šarūnas

Thunderbird will not let me move emails from another folder into this folder. This fails both with drag and drop and with using the right-click menu.

When I created a folder without diacritics (Sarunas) the emails can be moved into the folder.

Letters with diacritics are an essential part of spelling and not having them can significantly change the meaning of the words. What do I need to do in order to use folder names with diacritics?

On Windows 11 Pro (latest updates) desktop, I use Thunderbird (latest update) to send/receive email. Usually, Norton 360 (latest update) VPN must be turned off to received emails. I say "usually," because sometimes it works with VPN on. Is there a way to receive emails without needing to usually turn off VPN? What I have been trying hasn't worked. Thanks, if you can help.

I'm switching from Outlook to Thunderbird Nebula 128.6.0 and I am attempting the import of my "Contacts" from Outlook into Thunderbird "Address Book" via .csv file. My contacts from Outlook are a mess as over the years I did not always enter them by manually as a field at a time. Sometimes the address entry was pasted into Outlook or via a download and this produces a .csv with a poor data structure. There is no way I would expect to get a decent data transfer from such a jumble so in an effort to supply Thunderbird with a half decent .csv file I decided to edit the Outlook exported .csv to match a Thunderbird .csv export. I made up a new Address Book in Thunderbird with a few names and addresses and exported it to a .csv. Unfortunately when I look into the exported file some data does not appear to have been exported. For example I only have one phone number exported under 'Work Phone' although there are two or more listings in my made up contact in the address book. The same with email addresses, only the first two listings are exported under 'Primary Email' and 'Secondary Email' although I have more in the made up contact in the Thunderbird Address Book. I wonder if anyone else has undertaken this task and can share any tips for the best way to approach this, or maybe tell me where Thunderbird is putting the data that it does not export? I note that Thunderbird structures the phone numbers as 'Work Phone', 'Home Phone', 'Fax Number', 'Pager Number', but the "New Contact" screen does not have any of these input options. I'm a bit stumped at the moment so any ideas or help would be most appreciated. Regards. Greg

The extension ConfirmBeforeDelete is extremely useful. It has saved me not only from accidentally deleting messages, but also from dragging and moving folders when I didn't intend to.

I recently had to manually recover from deleting 20 messages in a search window after I had accidentally hit the delete key (while I thought my cursor was up in one of my search fields).

Really, that functionality should be a built-in feature in Thunderbird.

The latest version of ConfirmBeforeDelete is 1.9.3, released Nov. 20, 2023. Compatible with Thunderbird 115.*

What did that extension need to be compatible with Thunderbird 128+? In other words, what change(s) in Thunderbird broke it? Would the fix be something easy or will it require more significant changes?

I tried to contact the author last October (even offered to gather some donations), but have not heard back.

It looks like there was already at least one person interested in helping. Thread on github:
