Thunderbird — Fora społeczności

I have forwarded (from my Thunderbird account) an email from our local hospital about an appointment to my mailfence address three times now, but all three were deemed undeliverable by the mailer-Daemon. I removed all links on the third attempt in case that was the problem, but no luck.

Error code: 554 Rejected : Spam ?

For further assistance, please send mail to postmaster.

How do I do that? Is my question. Is there a 'Postmaster' address to use?

Many thanks David Edwards

cannot receive or send email says to login to server mail.twc.com failed Also says unable to authenticate to outgoing server SMPT check PW did and still not working. Spectrum say server is failing to communicate with their server.

When we first started using a third party application to track our customers information & jobs; we received emails showing the customers name on the correspondent/from column. Now all of the emails show the third party applications name and I do not know which customers are trying to contact us.

Last week I started getting the attached pop-up

I don't use Calendar on Thunderbird (as it does not sync ) Not sure why this has started ..... I have tried putting in password and ticking the remember box - but it still keeps popping up.

I received a spam message this morning that had a "Disposition-Notification-To" (aka Read Receipt) line that had MY email address on it. I honestly don't know why a spammer would do this - but that's not the issue. I have Read Receipts disabled, but Thunderbird generated an email (to me) and sent it to my mail host. This seems like a bug. Even if the Read Receipt has my email address on it (making it mostly harmless), Thunderbird shouldn't have generated the message. Or am I missing something? Thanks.

Hello. Some email addresses are no longer being delivered and are not appearing in my spam folder.

This started about three weeks ago with just one address. Now, I know of at least two.

Emails from these addresses that I used to receive and delete have also disappeared from my spam folder.

Does anyone have a solution?

I recently obtained a digital certificate for use with S/MIME. I followed the process laid out in

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/instructions-smime-certificate-using-csr

to generate my key pair, create a CSR, submit it to a CA, download the resulting certificate file, and import it into Thunderbird. I also imported the intermediate certificate showed as the issuer for my cert, which in turn appears to be signed by one of the certs trusted by default in Thunderbird.

Having done that, I see the certificate showing up under "your certificates" in the Certificate Manager, with a "not before" date in the past and a "not after" date in the future. So everything appears to look correct, but when I try to send a signed email I get the following error message as a pop-up:

"Sending of the message failed. You specified that this message should be digitally signed, but the application either failed to find the signing certificate specified in your Mail & Newsgroup Account Settings, or the certificate has expired."

And if I look at the console in developer tools I see:

"mailnews.send: NS_ERROR_FAILURE: Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIMsgComposeSecure.beginCryptoEncapsulation]

I can't make sense of the error message, since the certificate appears under "your certificates" in the certificate manager, and it does not appear to be expired. Can anyone suggest how to determine the root cause and fix it? Does it matter that the certificate is for a non-default identify I've added for the account in Thunderbird? Does it matter if the "common name" in the certificate doesn't match the "Your Name" field in Thunderbird? Any pointers on what to check would be appreciated.

I have a calendar that is shared by 4 devices. If I snooze or dismiss a reminder on 1 device, it should not affect the reminder on the other devices. Please implement a local snooze option at the individual calendar level.

Hello, I am using thundebird since 2022. I need to use new PC and transfering all emails, However some [sub folder] does not go through. we tried several times and try delate special character, but it did not go well.Ex.folder name Malaysia has subfolder but Aus is not.

Is there any solution?

Best Regards,

I'm not sure exactly when this problem started but it could have been when I had to move my primary email from Xfinity over to Yahoo. Also not sure if this started after a recent Thunderbird update. I can not send new emails nor can I forward old emails. Haven't tried reply but suspect it is the same. This is the message I get: Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: Request failed; Mailbox unavailable. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again. All settings and passwords are correct as I can receive and send from all my different accounts using browser. I can send emails from my accounts, on my iphone, though not using Thunderbird on iphone. Account settings and passwords are the same on the phone.

Yesterday I had to change my Spectrum email - I have an old road runner email address and swapped over to spectrum.net server from the old server. In this process I had to update my password to access the server.

When I updated per the instructions from Spectrum I was able to do a normal download into my Thunderbird inbox. This triggered me having to input the new password. I did check the box to update the password and save it. After the one time download I cannot get Thunderbird to download emails. I can send emails with no problems but cannot download. No way can I get a download - it does not on initialization, at the set time nor with the manual request.

Spectrum is no help - their web mail works and it's my problem. I realize this is an old system, legacy and all that - anybody got a magic fix?

Any idea on how I messed this up?

Thanks.

I have an address book setup with a number of what I'll call sub books for want of a better name. I used to be able to copy a contact from the address book to a sub book. I have either forgotten how to do that or something may have changed. I tried to drag & drop the address from the main book to the sub book but that doesn't work any longer. What am I missing here?

I am running Thunderbird 140.11.1esr on Windows 11. I have many email accounts mainly with btinternet which I access with Thunderbird. Most of them work fine but when I tried add another email account with a very large inbox all of the folders download fine but the inbox itself doesn't show any messages but the number alongside the folder says 220479 (which I think is unread messages). I have tried this on 2 different laptops with the same result. I have tried to Repair the folder. The folder is selected for offline use and I have tried to press the Download now button.

Any ideas?

Thank you

Paul

In my Thunderbird I have some folders with names printed italic starting with "INBOX". The folders are empty, so it's easy to delete them. After deleting I don't see the folders anymore. But after shutting down Thunderbird and starting Thunderbird again, the folders are back... How do I delete the folders to not see them anymore?

Best regards, Marianne

Thunderbird has been acting weird. For a week or so, it has sometimes been downloading only one message at a time when I hit "Get Messages." I have to keep clicking "Get Messages" over and over to download my email. Now, however, it won't retrieve any messages at all from that account. It goes through the motions, and says that there are no messages to retrieve, but there are. I have tried restarting, both Thunderbird and my computer, several times. I have tried compacting the inbox. I briefly got it working again after restarting, but it's back to not working and restarting does nothing. The online information tells me to delete my account and then add it again, but it also seems to indicate that if I do that I'll lose the email that is currently stored under that account. That's not an option! I am able to send messages, and Thunderbird retrieves messages from my other email account just fine.

I have tried all the recommended methods to alter the display of dates in my Thunderbird inbox but cannot alter the format as short. It is very inconvenient not to see the correct Day number.

TB connects to Yahoo Plus just fine. Folders display but no emails display?? I fixed this once a while back by deleting config files in TB and re-adding Yahoo. It has happened again?? Forgot which files I wiped (in Linux Mint). Anyway to avoid doing this continually and what's the fix?

Hi! I use Thunderbird at home, but at work I have to use Outlook. This M$ sh... uses Ctrl-Q to mark emails as read. After a long day at work, I go home, sit down at my computer, and automatically keep pressing Ctrl-Q instead of R. I'm sure I'm not alone in having this problem. Could you please allow users to choose which hotkey exits Thunderbird, or at least disable the hotkey?
