Thunderbird — Fora społeczności

In sending a new email, when I go to enter the "TO," various email choices pop-up - but not all are correct. How can I add and/or correct those popup choices?

BTW, I have a screenshot. How do I get it here?

I have a backup file from another thunderbird installation. The profile in this backup contains a file named abook.mab. I suppose this is the address book. I would like to copy the addresses from this installation to my current thunderbird 147.0.1 (64-bit). Tools > import > address book does not work. Can you please advise me?

I run TBD 140.8.0 esr (64 bit) under Debian 12 Linux. Until recently I could automatically enter a special address from the pertaining addressbook, this does not work anymore. helpfiles do not show a solution thus I am here.

The addressbook is full of addresses however I have to transfer a special address via past and copy into the addressfield of the mail I want to send.

Thanks for a quick answer Jörg Kampmann

I have installed Thunderbird with Zorin 18 and it won't show contacts. Google says that Thunderbird has full access to contacts. Attempt to manually add contacts fails with message of "Can't connect to server". I did have to manually add the calendar to make that part work. Is this an uninstall and reinstall (Thunderbird that is) situation?

Thanks for your help

Using TB 141.0 MS Word 11 Too many wrong videos, too many old explanations. It's August 2025. Please, I'm not a computer wiz. Just a home novice. OK with specific directions. How to export my Gmail contacts list and import it to my TB contacts. I have tried basic gmail export...but should it be "google .csv", " or what? I don't think I have Outlook loaded anymore on windows 11. If you could help by actually sending me instructions that I will follow direct. ie: Sign into Gmail>click on contact file to be exported>export contacts and click "google .csv" (or the correct choice there)..then what? I've been trying and it wants me to save to a file...but how? And which file? I know it's an effort on your part, but I will print and save going forward. Thanks so much. LS in AZ.

Hi. Every time I send an email, the recipient's address is saved in my collected addresses folder. This means that each new email sent to a known recipient adds another copy of the address (see screenshot). Some addresses have hundreds of copies. How can I get rid of this?

Thanks for any help.

I'm trying to import my contacts from Outlook. When I choose import from Outlook, it doesn't import anything. So then I exported from Outlook as a CSV file, and imported into TB. But only the first and last names are importing. I'm mapping the email column to 'primary email', and also mapping the work phone column to 'work phone' and the cell phone column to 'mobile number'.

But emails and phones are not importing.

I'm using TB 136.0 on Win Server 2019

Hi I am having an issue with getting new contacts to add to a email group. It was working just fine and then, I couldn't add anymore new contacts. What is going on and how do I fix it? Sue

I've moved my profile folder to a new PC but my address book didn't come across. I've booted up the old computer but all my addresses are gone from TB! Is there a folder I can move to the new PC to correct this?

thanks!
