I recently purchased a new computer and want to setup Thunderbird to use my ATT Yahoo mail account. I went through the automatic process and got an "incorrect information" message. I tried Yahoo's instructions and they don't match what shows up in the account setup in Thunderbird. I am stuck and need some step by step instructions to set this up. I found nothing in the help section. Thanks.

Hello Guys,

First of all I was using outlook but since with new update there's bunch of annoying stuff, limitations and ads everywhere, even tho If I force to use old app still get that "Update Outlook" & "Try new outlook" notifications. Thats pretty annoying so I decided to go use Thunderbird. but I have been experiencing significant synchronization issues with my Hotmail (Outlook.com) accounts in Thunderbird. Specifically, when I add more than one Hotmail account, the folders for those accounts do not appear at all. Additionally, when I attempt to send a test email, it shows as “sending” but then the process hangs, nothing happens.

To resolve the issue, I have tried:

• Removing and Re-adding Accounts:

I removed all my Hotmail accounts from Thunderbird and re-added them. During the re-adding process, I cleared the saved passwords (so that the login prompts would reappear) and manually configured the account settings (IMAP server, SMTP server, etc.) & cleared caches on %AppData% Thunderbird>Profile>Imap folder

• Connection Settings:

I verified that the incoming and outgoing server settings are correct (IMAP: port 993 with SSL/TLS; SMTP: port 587 with STARTTLS) and that the authentication method is set to OAuth2.

• Rebuilding Profile Indexes:

I backed up and deleted the local index files (.msf files) in my Thunderbird profile for the affected folders so that Thunderbird would rebuild them.

• Security Software Check:

I temporarily disabled my antivirus/firewall software to rule out any interference with the connections.

Despite these efforts, after re-adding the accounts, the folders still do not synchronize, and during a test email send, the message remains stuck in the “sending” or "Hanging" what ever you call it.

So I need help :D

Thank you.

This has been re-posted. In error my first post said ‘Firefox’ NOT ‘Thunderbird’.

Hi all. I recently had a terminal problem on my Win 10 computer so have bought a new Win 11 machine. I ran Thunderbird mail on the old Win 10, had 5 email accounts, had about 12 local folders and had my Profile stored in a folder on the desktop. The folder was moved there some years ago but don 't remember how I did it. I moved it there because this folder gets backed up every night.

So, I have managed to remove the HDD from my old machine and have located the 'old' profile folder. I now need to re-install Thunderbird on the new machine and match it up to my old profile folder (I think...)

Any advice on how to do that?

Hello, I just tried to import bookmarks to Firefox, however they're not appearing on the title bar?

I imported bookmarks to desktop Firefox 134.0.1 (aarch64) on raspberrypios - 1.0, but the title bar only shows Import Bookmarks... and the imported bookmarks are located in Library -> All Bookmarks -> Bookmarks Toolbar/Bookmarks Menu -> Mozilla Firefox -> Imported Bookmark.

I've imported bookmarks to Firefox, however the Bookmarks bar doesn't show on a blank tab (I'll raise another forum post about this). If I manually add the Bookmarks toolbar, it permanently shows only a few Bookmarks, not the original Bookmarks that have been imported?

I imported the Bookmarks 3 times as shown on the attached screenshot, but somehow they have been stored by default, in the wrong location. The correct location would be so the Bookmarks appear in the Bookmarks toolbar.

Hello, does Firefox has a function where the bookmarks only show in a Bookmarks toolbar when a blank tab is open please? Once a bookmark is selected from the Bookmarks Toolbar, then the Bookmarks Toolbar is no longer needed and should disappear to maximise webpage space.

I am trying to send a message with lots of MIME attachments from Thunderbird. After I click "Send", I get this error message: "Number of MIME parts exceeds maximum permitted". Unhelpfully it does not say what the maximum is and I cannot find this information in Support.

I have uploaded an image of the message I get. I have 100GB of free disk space on my C drive where my Thunderbird programme is and 531 GB free space on the drive where I keep my Thunderbird profile - with all the mailboxes and archives. Windows 10 desktop computer.

Anyone know what the maximum number of MIME attachments to an email is? Thanks in advance

My company relies on another company for our VM using Amazon Linux 2 and installs Firefox ESR from Amazon Linux 2 extras. We have 115.18.0esr and were getting notifications at the top of Firefox saying this would stop working on 14th March. We got 128.7.0esr but it core dumped on loading even in safe mode and when creating a new profile. So downgraded and then found another coworker faced same issue so go him to also downgrade. I then went to recreate my issue get logs and screenshots to provide to my supplier but 128.7.0esr has disappeared from the amazon linux yum repo and the notification about the need to upgrade before 14th March has also gone and gone from co worker machines. I think it was needed for plugin and cert issues but I am not sure. I realise I should reach out to the supplier for them to then contact Amazon and find out what the issues are from their yum repo and see if it is anything to do with their provided vm. But has anyone got any info on the reason to upgrade from 115.18.0esr so I can add to the issue? I know it's EOL but the message was specific and came from Firefox and links which took you to info about why it was needed but it seems weird the notification has disappeared.

I am new to Thunderbird email after years of using the KOffice suite in KDE, once that stopped working I decided to switch.

I saw a notice that email notifications are being worked on, I just wanted to document the behavior I am seeing in case it's helpful in any way.

I am running on openSUSE 15.6, Thunderbird 128.7 in the KDE Desktop environment (Plasma Version 5.27.11, Frameworks 5.115.0)

I have my Thunderbird settings to show an Alert, Use the system notifications and play a sound, the default. The sound plays, but never is there a pop-up to draw attention to it. The notification is set to show Preview Text, Subject and Sender.

Thank you.

I am using Thunderbird version 128.7.0esr on Windows 11 Pro. I moved my Mail folder (and sub-folders) on my local drive. I re-directed each of 4 email accounts to their new sub-folder. The emails are downloading from the email host's POP3 server. New email messages are not visible in any of the inboxes. The counter shows the number increasing when messages are downloading. Global search does not find the new emails. The new emails show when I right click on any of the inboxes and select "Search Messages" (From/Contains."@"). I tried manually removing the Inbox.msf from one account, but did not fix when I restarted. I tried the Repair Folder button (right click Properties on Inbox folder), but did not fix. I know the emails are on my computer, but I cannot get to them without the very cumbersome "search messages" function. Suggestions?

I am trying to migrate my old Roadrunner (Spectrum) email account into Thunderbird. The auto create feature will not work with the settings that Thunderbird is finding. I have verified all of my information settings with Spectrum Support, and they tell me that Thunderbird has to supply me with some sort of special settings to make this work. Any help finding this info will be appreciated.

No idea if this is the right topic or not but I've been dealing with this frustrating issue where with some websites it just loads a blank white screen. I've tried every fix I could that I've seen on forums like this as well as on Reddit and nothing I've tried has fixed it. From launching in Safe Mode or changing things in about:config. Before finishing this post I tried launching in safe mode, so my add-ons and plugins are disabled and it still persists with websites loading in these blank white screens. I never had this issue at first and I'm sure it started to happen after an automatic update a while back.

I need this issue sorted out so I can look and compare items from shops but most of the time a website that works and I look at it elsewhere I'm dealing with this issue. No issue looking at stuff on the internet on my phone, though I do use safari instead on my phone.

Hi - I have had gmail and my internet provider email accounts on Thunderbird working for years. Suddenly, a few days ago, I started getting certificate issues from Thunderbird warning me of the security risks. I chose to override. Now I am unable to download (imap) from either email server. I no longer receive the certificate risk dialog box. When I click on File>Get New Messages, message appear at the bottom of the page indicating Thunderbird is "connecting to the imap server" or "checking mail server capabilities", but nothing downloads. What do I need to do to correct this? Access to both servers stopped at the same time so I don't believe anything changed on the server end.

Thanks, Alan

Hi I have several mails with in my Thunderbird. For one of them I have unchecked all the server settings: "Check for new messages at startup" "Check for new messages every ..." "Allow immediate notifications..."

Thunderbird still keeps asking me for a pw at start and now and then. If possible I would prefer not to delete the account, but just have it as passive, so I can still find old mails there.

New mails from this old account, if any, are forwarded to another of my mails (another domain name), and then I move them manually down there, so it is easier to find. This was something my mail-provider arranged, so I should not pay 2x hosting for both domains. Alternative I can transfer the mails from the old account to a sub-folder with my active mail, but for organizational ease, is there a way I can keep a mail account as "passive" in Thunderbird, that is no check for new emails on this account and no ask for pw, since it is not really active anymore.

I would like to swap the order of the first 2 items on the Bookmarks Context Menu - that is "Open in New Tab" should be second, and "Open in New Window" should be first.

I'm able to do this on the "regular" context menu with the following code...

#context-openlink { 
   order: -1;
}

But I cannot find the correct selector for the Bookmarks Context menu (see attached image).

I have tried code (to no avail) such as the following...

#placesContext-openlink { 
   order: -1;
}

#BMB_bookmarksPopup-openlink { 
   order: -1;
}

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks.
