Android app. TB version 20: can only see inbox. How do I find trash, spam, and other folders in my account. The app is the current version on Play Store. Tips say go to the appearance menu but I don't seem to have one. Please help. Thanks

Good morning,

Yesterday I wrote a comment about the Thunderbird app and support asked me to submit a report. I then received an email telling me to open a ticket—I honestly don't know how—or to send an email. Here's my problem:

1) The most serious issue is that push notifications aren't working as described. Specifically, I disabled battery restrictions, selected the primary account, went to folder management, and enabled push notifications in the inbox. I tested it by sending an email, and everything worked perfectly. Then I went to the second account I registered, then folder management, and that's where the problem arises. Regardless of the account I use, it always lets me manage folders only from the first account, and that's a major problem. Despite this, even after 15 minutes or with the app open, I still don't receive emails for the accounts, not even after an hour. I have to force the emails to be received, and then Thunderbird shows them to me.

2) In the combined view, it's not possible to move emails into the folders of the mailbox to which they belong. I'm forced to go into the specific mailbox each time and operate. I've tried various clients, and none of the combined view forces you to go into the specific mailbox.

3) Absurd attachment management. If an email has an attachment, I have to click three times to change the view each time. The first click switches from the combined view to the email, the second click switches from the email to the attachments. The third click finally opens the attachments. Other clients just click on the preview.

I look forward to your feedback. Thank you. Julian

I have numerous Ionos email addresses. No problem seeing all received emails in Thunderbird app on my Windows PC. But Android app does not show some emails, despite synchronising numerous times. Problem is often with emails not showing in the unified inbox on the Android app. Also a problem with sent emails not showing. Today I looked for an email I had sent four days ago, and it was not in my Android sent folder. Synchronised, still not there. Synchronised again, still not there. Went online to Ionos and opened the sent email. Synchronised Android Thunderbird again and then it appeared. Why can't Anroid Thunderbird see certain emails? Problem seems to be especially bad with emails I have previously opened in Thunderbird on my Windows PC. Doing so seems to make the emails invisible to Android Thunderbird.

1. 1 there should be an option to put the menu with the delete button at the bottom, not top.
2. 2 Unified inbox is great, but why not unified everything. Unified spam,.sent, deleted etc. Blue mail does it and it's very useful.

Those are the 2 main things. Anything else is not important but nice. E.g.

1. 3 Options for a bit more colour or ability to colour things, like accounts or senders.
2. 4 One click unsubscribe for emails

Other than that it's utterly awesome and feels very stable, unlike the new release of Blue Mail.

I'm using a Galaxy22 and have T/b for Android installed and ready to go. I've followed all the directions to import everything from my T/b on my desktop, which is the latest as I do automatic updates. But when I open T/b for Android, I see something called "unified inbox" with absolutely nothing in it, just a blank screen and a "compose message" icon on the bottom right. Where's my stuff? Please help! I can't handle Samsung email anymore, it won't send out any messages.

I want to move email messages around in local folders, but "move" doesn't show even when enabled in settings when the account is POP3

However when using IMAP it is worse as the App keeps messing not only with the server messages an folders, but also with other devices.

Hi All,

I have a Galaxy S22 running android 16 and have been getting the standard email notifications for each of my inboxes.

Recently I get a duplicate notification appear for a new email almost immediately after I clear the notifications screen or swipe it away.

I was hoping an update would solve the issue but I updated it once since it began but the issue remains. I have done all the basic troubleshooting steps like cleared cache, stopped app, restarted device etc. but nothing seems to work.

I havent uninstalled the app yet because I didnt want to risk losing anything important, but if thats the next logical step aside from a configuration change I will do it as these notifications are becoming rather annoying. Help please!

I've switched from K-9 to Thunderbird for Android.

One difference I've noticed is that the message notifications remain in the launcher even after I've deleted those messages in Thunderbird. Thus, I have to handle messages twice.

Is there a setting to make notifications go away when the underlying messages have been deleted?

Thanks

I used clone phone to transfer from a Samsung Galaxy S20 to a oneplus 15 and Thunderbird android did not transfer. How do I get it working and access my old emails?

Sometimes I got a problem with Gmail where I get the error "Too many simultaneous connections", both desktop and Android. I found that Gmail servers support 15 connections. I could reduce the number of connections for desktop in the config editor, but I would like how to do that in the Android app. Some times it creates a lot of connections, and I think the numbers stack up together with dead connection when I reboot my router and get a new IP, so I'm wondering how to set to get just one or two simultaneous connections on Android.

The Delete button (I've just begun using Thunderbird for Android) sends email to Delete-land: gone for good. There is no way to reprogram it to send to Trash. One can, alternatively, hide it on the main screen by setting swipes left and right to None. But it is still there in the Read screen....and potentially dangerous. If you try to set a swipe to Trash rather than Delete, there is no Trash option. So you have to set it to Move and choose Trash each time. This reduces the utility of Tbird Android and means you have to be extra-careful when reading emails.

Also, no way to reduce image sizes (by percentage) when attaching large picture files...unless you reduce them in advance in an image processing program.

I recently installed the Thunderbird app on my Samsung S25. I use two email providers - hotmail.com and comcast.net. Thunderbird gives incoming email notifications for my hotmail address but not for comcast.

One of the posts I saw said to make sure the app runs in the background and there are no battery restrictions. Mine was already running in the background and I removed battery restrictions. That did not solve the problem.

I activated message synchronisation for 15 min. intervall. The first few syncs were working correctly (around 3), then I'm just able to sync manually. In the thunderbird app settings, I already activated the battery setting to not restricted (I'm using my phone in german, not sure if the translation is 100%). Before that, I was not even getting the first syncs. How is it possible to sync reliable in the set intervall?
