What fresh hell is this (in the image)? The display is like this most of the time. Usually, highlighting text causes that part to be fixed but it doesn't last long. This in on Windows 11 and nothing seems to fix it. I've updated drivers and Thunderbird. I've scanned for system file damage. While there wer some corrupt files, fixing them has not affected the display problem. No effect. It looks like some characters are randomly changed to the background color.

I am running Windows 10 Home edition. My email account is for a domain I own on Dreamhost. When I click on a subfolder I get the message "Server imap.dreamhost.com has disconnected. The server may have gone down or there may be a network problem." I have my firewall set to allow thunderbird.exe traffic to pass. Any suggestions. I don't have this issue running K-9 on my Andriod phone. (I am reluctant to switch to Thunderbird on my Android phone until I solve this on my PC.

Any suggestions?

A jpg atttachment no longer opens with right click. I have looked at settings, in files and attachments and have tried, open with photoshop elements, open with firefox, always ask, and save file. None make any difference. I can right click on the attachment and the menu says open, save etc. click on open and nothing happens.

I have been using Thunderbird for several years now and am currently using Thunderbird Desktop Version 128.9.2esr Released April 15, 2025, on a MacBook Air Retina 13", using OSMac Sonoma 14.7.5. Office attachments cannot be open directly from an email, but have to be detached first. I have had this problem for some time and I have looked at other posts about this and followed instructions, but the problem persists. Thought I would try again to sort it out. Any help to resolve? Thanks

Dear Community

i use the Thunderbird app for Android (Samsung S23+ Android 14, OneUI 6.1) to retrieve emails from a mailbox (IMAP). That works. Now I would like to automatically forward incoming emails to other email addresses according to filter criteria.

I have filters for this in the desktop version. But I can't find them in the app. And the filter on the PC only works when the PC is running. Which it shouldn't. The forwarding should be done in the Android app. There is no access to a webmailer.

Many thanks for your help and happy easter, Michael

Since I updated to 128.4.1esr filters no longer work good: some emails are left in the main folder and not transferred in the subfolder I'd like and I ordered via filter; other emails are duplicated in the main folder and in the destination folder ;moreover, if I try to modify a filter, the window is so big that the OK button slips under Windows 11 system tray and it's impossible to click; thw window is impossible to resize, nor I can drag it, so the OK button remains invisible under Windows tray bar. Thanks for your help.

My installation: Thunderbird Ver. 128.4.1esr ID build 20241101163316

In the past I've always been able to restore email subfolders and the emails in those folders to Local Folders by copying over the files from the profile directory of a previous installation under Mail/Local Folders

But I'm trying it now on v. 128.6.1esr (64-bit) and it no longer works.

e.g. I do the following with TB closed: $ cd [old_profile_dir]/Mail/Local\ Folders/ $ cp -r Archives* Sent* Templates* [new_profile_dir]/Mail/Local\ Folders/

When I reopen neither the emails nor their folders are there.

If I try creating all of the relevant folders from within thunderbird, then closing it and copying over in the same way, it similarly seems has no effect. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
