I'm trying to remove a couple accounts that I no longer use in Thunderbird. A window keeps popping up asking for a password, but the mail service is no longer available. When I click on the red delete button for that account, nothing happens. I've deleted all the mail in one of them which I was able to do as I thought I might need to do that first, but I still can't delete it after that. The other one won't even let me delete the emails. How do I delete these so I stop getting asked to put in a password for accounts that are no longer valid and I don't want anymore?

My computer crashed and cannot recover anything from it. I cannot remember where my e-mail is. I remembered Yahoo and got my account back in that but cannot remember how to get back into my Thunderbird acccount. I remember my address but that isn't doing me any good without the actual e-mail account.

I have two email accounts, one is showing 5% of 100GB and the other is showing 94% of 3.9GB. Why the large difference? I cannot find anything about there being a Quota nor was I aware there was one when I signed up or if this is correct how to get a larger quota. Any advice appreciated please. Mike

Hello there:

can anyone shed some light on how to resolve my issue here where........ having more than one hotmail account confuses the *Identities* for each mailbox,

in Thunderbird properties one goes into each accounts *Account settings* then to *Manage Identities* (at the bottom of the page)......there one sets the *default* identity for that email account. The problem I'm encountering is when there are more than a single hotmail account one cannot select more than just one identity to fill into that space. One sets a *default* identity & that single identity doesn't allow the other hotmail identities to function properly. I am getting a constant *Failed to connect to server @ outlook.office.365.com.* because two of the three the identity trying connect to the server are not the *default* identity. The *default* identity will connect to the server. I have 3 hotmail accounts loaded into Thunderbird anyone know of a solution to this?

thx very much

A hacker got into one of my accounts. All emails to all accounts do not get past the Yahoo and Google servers and I've only been able to restore service through principal account. How can I save my data and correct the compromised settings?

When using the Unified Inbox to compose a new email, the From address is the Default Address of the first account created in Thunderbird. Presently I am having issues with that addresses server so I want to default any new mail to the Default Address of one of my other accounts. Anyy help with this?

Hi, I have two accounts in my Thunderbird. They are Gmail (regular gmail account) and CFCC (an institutional account). The CFCC shows up in my Unified Folder list but the Gmail does not. Is that normal? The main Inbox is showing all incoming emails from both accounts so no performance issues, just wondering how to get rid of the CFCC (if that's possible) to eliminate clutter. Thank you. GES

After a keyboard accident I am left with this situation. Lin found the toggle problem with F8. Wxie suggested the password but the password is correct. Thanks to both of them. It seems the problem is the missing M in .com .It might be in the DNS but I don't seem to have anything to try except to try to recreate the account. If I try that I fear I will only exacerbate the situation. I have had this email for many years. This stared 08/08/2026 I have been searching daily for a solution. Like most things digital it is probably a simple fix if you know how. I don't.

I have created an account instance in account settings, and the "Test connection to server" says it is OK, but when I go to the mail tab the get messages button and New Message are grayed out an NO accounts are listed in the "folders" area. Not does it ever ask for my password to the SMTP server I have selected. I have an existing account with my own email service (Hover), and MUST connect to that. This is critical, as I need my e-mail to accomplish necessary activities.

Somehow my account folder has duplicated itself, complete with Inbox, Drafts, Sent and Trash. Going to Settings, I can't see any difference. Both continue to be updated with new mail. How can I delete the duplicate? I see nothing in 'Account Settings' that would let me delete it.

I have installed Thunderbird for email but it was not what I thought it would be. I now want to cancel the account. However, the instructions are to Tools: Account Settings. 2. Select the account you want to remove on the left side. 3. Click the "Account Actions" button on the bottom left and choose, "Remove Account". Here is the problem. "Account Actions does not show"

Au lancement de Thunderbird mode normal, - j'ai une page blanche Au lancement de Thunderbird mode dégradé : - je n'ai plus le compte etienne.burck.amch69@gmail.com et je n'arrive pas à le re créer

I disconnected a Google Workspace account - Calendar and mail - from a former workplace. As far as I can tell, it's been deleted from Thunderbird.

However, I'll still get dialog boxes and an occasional browser popup asking me to reauthorise it.

How do I get rid of it once and for all?

I have an email account on Thunderbird that I no longer use that I want to delete that account. I can very easily add an account to Thunderbird, but I can't seem to find any way to delete one. Is it even possible to delete an account?

I use a single Thunderbird password to access my six AOL accounts. Starting yesterday, the emails from one of my six AOL accounts do not display, but instead the emails from one of the other accounts is being duplicated in their place. I know the missing emails are indeed still in existence, since I can access that account's emails when I sign in to AOL in other browsers.

hello: for several weeks, each time I tried to add another account back to Thunderbird, MS asked for the verification, and after I added it to link to their server, it kept telling me, "Help us beat the robot," and nothing else happened; the screen stayed blank. I am unable to see any further command. If it is being done using Windows, often you may see holding down the space bar or solving a puzzle to gain access. When it comes to Linux, I ran into this issue.

This is strange! Maybe it is trying to stop me from using this account on this platform to get all my mail here. I've been using it here for many years and no issues. Please see the attached. Please look into this. Thank you....
