after the last Thunderbird update a username/password request pops up: "Authentication Required" cloud80.hostgator There is no Hostgator account so the only option is "cancel" only then will Thunderbird download emails. how to remove this https//cloud80.hostgator request?

My husband (DG) is 88 and beginning to have severe memory & analysis problems. I recently tried for three days, using his computer, to set up an account for him on the Social Security site, that I could oversee. It accepted a password, but kept asking for a 'backup code' that supposedly was 'assigned' - so I would have a second method to verify the account. There was no way, on that web page, that I could request a 'backup code' or ask for the '10 backup codes' that were supposedly given automatically. I wanted to simply get a letter that explained his SSA eligibility, so we could apply for Senior housing. I was able to call SSA and request the letter - but it will take 14 days by mail. We need it now - and I should have been able to simply download a PDF eligibility letter to print out. In less than 5 minutes, I was able to request and download an eligibility letter for myself on MY SSA account - but could not do it through his SSA account. I need to be able to communicate with SSA (& other agencies) and receive their replies through an email "AccountForDG@centuryxxxxx.net" that I can read in my email account "CuriousQuestor@centuryxxxxx.net). How do I set this up? Thanks in advance.

I was having problems with my chromebook. when I start my chromebook and i click on the thunderbird icon it doesn't open ! I have restored my chrombook and reinstalled thunderbird again but the problem is still there. The only way to access thunderbird is to open linux and type in thunderbird and then i have access to thunderbird once I turn off my chromebook and then reopen it once again thunderbird is not working !

suddenly it's taking minutes to send an email - if it sends at all. Many times I get a 'failed' pop up window but when I click SEND again it will sometimes go through. Also Some of my emails aren't coming up - only a few of them. And they aren't un-bolding.

I installed Thunderbird on my new laptop, then imported the profile from my old laptop

The main screen has, under "Inbox", folders for Drafts, Sent, Trash, Archive and Spam, which are being used by the program

Folders for Drafts, Sent and Trash also appear under "Local Folders" (along with Outbox) and these aren't being used by the program.

How do I get rid of these duplicate folders? "Spam" had a delete option, so that was easy, but the others don't.

I tried the two suggestions for a previous "Duplicates" question but they didn't resolve things.

Thank you

My Charter.net mail has suddenly started to come into my inbox and automatically is moved to trash by Thunderbird. I do not have antivirus, i have not changed any settings, it is POP.

I have used Thunderbird with the same email account for years, creating subfolders and moving emails to the subfolders with no issues.

With Thunderbird 153.0.1, after creating a new subfolder in the account, when attempting to move emails to the new folder, I receive the following error:

"Thunderbird: The current command did not succeed. The email server responded: APPEND invalid flag list"

When I receive an email, all the addresses in the incoming email are added to my address book. As a result I get email addresses added of people I don't even know. I want to stop that.

Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: <anonymous@[10.0.0.31]>: Sender address rejected: not owned by user a1.914306843. Please check the message recipient "christine.krieger@a1.net" and try again.

why do I get this on new download

System:

Win 11 Home (lastest updates, also my notebook's latest updates from the manufacturer) Thunderbird version 151.0

Okay, this is a multiple clusterf#@$.

I ended up needing to do a Win 11 Home "reset" keeping data. But I needed to back up some files first. But my back up drive was full. Usually, it's because of EaseUs ToDo not deleting files and just adding and adding to the system backup. But that wasn't the main issue: my Thunderbird profile (which I backup separately) was about 280 GIGABYTES in size! This is an extension of a prior problem for which nobody on here new how to solve and certainly nobody from Mozilla chimed in to help. So I did what I'd done before (but it'd never been like this) and delected a couple of THOUSAND seemingly redundant iterations of files from my profile, but NONE of the folders inside the profile.

Of course the Win11 reset deleted Thunderbird and all the profile information. No big problem, I've done this before...but it didn't work copying in all of the old files (from my backup drive) into a new profile and selecting that profile to boot. So, I went to the "Recycle Bin", undeleted all of those files back into my backed-up profile. But I'm only able to get Thunderbird to see all of my address book information. It is not finding my Thunderbird and email account settings nor my email messages (21 years worth). I 100% did NOT delete my email messages (c:\users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\PROFILENAME\Mail).

I can laboriously redo my email account information (five different accounts) and Thunderbird user settings, but I really DESPERATELY NEED HELP restoring my email messages.

PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME!

Using the system color theme, where my Windows 10 system is set to the dark color theme, I see Thunderbird 153+ Meadow showing popup menus with weird dark teal background. The standard Window menus (File, Edit, ..., Help) appear to use slightly different background, which still doesn't match my system color. Is there a setting I'm missing to have these menus shown with my system dark color theme (like current Fx, and previous Tb versions)?

I'm using my system color accent setting, but I'm seeing changing this Tb setting doesn't seem to affect the menus background.

I've also noticed I'm not seeing this on Windows 11 – the menus background is fine, although on Windows 11 I'm still noticing this teal "accent" appearing in certain elements of the popup menus, f.e. the color of menu item keyboard shortcuts.

Thunderbird demands my password for outgoing SMT server when I go to send an email but when I enter it, system won't accept it even though it is the correct password. I have had this problem for some time and it comes and goes. Sometimes I have ebeen able to send without a problem, then it comes back I had a helpful reply from this forum (can't find who posted it - Mick?) tellling me to go into the error console (Ctrl + Shift + J) and delete eveything in that. I tried that. It worked at first, but now when I do it, it has no effect. And the problem now appears to have become permanent, although occasionally after I have been working for some hours, then suddenly I can send without any problem. Problem hasn't budged though for a couple of days now. This is a mysterious and erratic gremlin, which now seems to have taken root. Any suggestions please? Carol

Hello Due to a massive cluster**k this morning, I changed my password by accident I think I've now got everything working again, except that Thunderbird cannot sign in to my Google Account What I don't understand is that I have a password with normal and special characters and numbers, but the Oauth2 password is very different of course How do I know what to change my Oauth2 password too? Or perhaps the question should be how do I now generate a new one that goes with my new "normal" password Thanks in advance for any help

Hello,

My internet provider is RCN. For the past couple of months, I’ve occasionally been getting the message, “Connection to server imap.rcn.com timed out.” As a result, I’m unable to receive emails via Thunderbird.

All my settings are correct. Usually, the problem resolves itself within 24 hours, but sometimes, like this time, it lasts longer.

Any suggestions? Best, Magda

hi, snap thunderbird 155.0-1 ubuntu 24.04 keeps asking for passwords of all email accounts after upgrading thunderbird. all passwords are correct and they were not changed. the issue started today after thunderbird was upgraded to 155.0-1. this new version seems to have touched on oauth: https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/155.0/releasenotes/

What’s New

- S/MIME popup shows signature, digest, encryption algorithms and key sizes

- Default address book for manually added contacts configurable with mail.addr_book.add_item_default_uri

- Enterprise policy DisableQRExport can disable QR export

- OAuth add-ons can override built-in settings for selected domains and hostnames

- Manual account config streamlined with Exchange, Graph, and custom OAuth support

- Custom OAuth support for IMAP and SMTP servers

- PKCE and external browser fields added to custom OAuth settings

- Enterprise policy DisableExperimentalFeatures for disabling experimental features

any idea how to fix this? thanks

Enclosed are jpg copies of the current sets of filters failures in my TB email program.

TB Error0 shows the 6 emails that have arrived and are placed in the INBOX. However, each of these has a corresponding filter set up to move them upon arrival to a separate subject email mailbox.

Note: If I highlight the INBOX and then go to Tools > Run Filters On Folder ... all of these INBOX email messages will be correctly filtered and moved to their respective email mailbox, BUT each of them is shown as having been "read" and unless you pay close attention, you may not know where these INBOX emails were sent.

I am also enclosing TB Error1 & 2 that show the last couple of days message filtering errors.

I can find nothing wrong with how each of these filters are set up, yet they seem to consistently fail to operate when new emails arrive.

Note one of them is for incoming emails from ... schiffsovereign.com. I have edited this filter repeatedly, even deleted it and re-input the information. Yet the filter never takes hold and does what it is designed to do. I am enclosing a jpg of that specific filter as TB Error3

I am looking for suggestions on how to fix this problem.

Thank you and best wishes,
