Fórum da Comunidade de Thunderbird for Android

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

I’m trying to import my email accounts from Thunderbird on Linux into Thunderbird for Android 23.0. On my Google Pixel, tapping “Scan QR code” briefly highlights the button, but nothing else happens. The camera view never opens and no error appears.

Camera permission is granted. Thunderbird is up to date, and force-stopping and restarting the app did not help. Has anyone encountered this or found a workaround?

hello, having trouble ading matthew714.com to my aol account on a samsung android phone...it is asking for a password...it won't take the p/w I use for my thankslord4me@aol.com account

I hope an email translation feature can be added to the application, similar to Gmail's, making it more convenient to translate the content of emails written in foreign languages.

Hello,

I'm trying to add accounts through a QR code from Windows onto an old Xiaomi Redmi phone running Thunderbird 23.1 (32). FWIW, it's running a custom ROM with Android 13.

Google didn't help: I find no Settings in the main menu, clicking on "Get started" displays no QR code option, and if clicking on "K-9 settings", I'm prompted for passwords later.

What's a girl to do?

Thank you.

Following a bereavement I am struggling (at 80 yrs old) to deal with all the technology that my partner managed for us both. Everything is dependent upon technology now so I am terrified that your security may delete my use of Thunderbird for all my emails. I also need to know how to have my Thunderbird messages on my laptop synchronised with my Android phone please as I keep having to repeat deletion etc on other devices.

Hi, It would be great if you could see on an email thread not only what a person writes you but also the answers you have made.

Is it possible?

Thanks

Hello Since I changed my TB Android incoming server setting from POP to IMAP, Android has repeatedly reported app crashes. It asked me to clear cache, which I tried. See img attached. Eventually it said it was putting the app into deep sleep. Yesterday, after I sent an email to a gmail acct I was unable to find a copy of the email in a sent folder, there wasn't any Sent folder. There were only 2 folders, Inbox & Outbox. I expected there to be Sent & Draft folders. Eventually I discovered via Manage folders an Inbox.sent & Inbox.drafts. So I tried to change folders so Sent & Drafts are at the same level as Inbox & Outbox. Yesterday there were approx 26 emails in the Inbox. This morning there are 3 new emails in the Inbox & the 26 emails have disappeared & Inbox.sent, Inbox.drafts have disappeared. The 3rd & 4th attachments show the current folder settings. My TB Desktop incoming server swrting is POP. Please tell me what I am doing wrong & what I must do to be able to see all my emails, received & sent. Thank you

After reading and deleting emails the email list will just go blank for a bit of time, sometimes I need to exit clear cache and reopen for the list to display. This happens in both the beta and the none beta versions
