When setting up Thunderbird, I did not see the radio tick box for removing mail from the server. What will happen now that I have removed about 10000 pieces of email from my local account on my computer's hard drive?

I have more questions, but would rather ask one at a time.

I am using MacOS 10.13, Thunderbird 115.15.16ESR: my Hotmail worked until 15 May 2025 and then it would not download new emails. Screenshots are available if you want me to post them. I got an error message: "authentication failure while connecting to server outlook.office365.com". I updated Thunderbird to the latest for my OS: 115.18.0ESR. Still no new emails. I deleted my email account on Thunderbird and tried to reinstate it. Now I get an error message when trying to set up the account: "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password." I tested my password by logging into my Microsoft account with it on my browser. I can also login to my email using Firefox, but I want my Thunderbird email client to work again.

The configuration I am using is: I use my normal hotmail password in the password field. I also set up a new App Password with Microsoft and tried that without success. With the 115.18 update there is a new field: Your login. I just put my hotmail email address in here. incoming: outlook.office365.com, port 993, SSL/TLS, Oauth2 
outgoing: smtp.office365.com, port 587, STARTTLS, Oauth2 (I have also tried: smtp-mail.outlook.com)

I enabled 2-step authentication with Microsoft in my Microsoft account more than a year ago. Interestingly, I don't get a prompt on my iPhone Microsoft Authentication App when I select Done when trying to set up the hotmail account on Thunderbird.

Please help. I am desperate, and I have wasted a lot of time on this without success. Cheers

One minute I'm able to send emails. The next -- not. Spectrum SMTP server: mail.twc.com port 25 SSL/TLS normal PW "Sender rejected AUP#Out-1500"

Spectrum support is completely useless as usual.

I cannot send emails and always get the same error message, no matter what steps I have taken. This has been the situation for nearly 48 hours. During this time I have undertaken the following steps, as advised by Thunderbird (TB)/ Optus and Google (not in order).

Checked SMTP server settings (many times), Re-booted the Router, Uninstalled and reinstalled TB, Changed the number of Server Connections to Cache from 5, down to 1 (as suggested by the TB Notification), Tried sending a test message to my other email address on several occasions, but got the same error message. I have checked my Webmail account and can send and receive from and to my email accounts from within webmail.

As required in the TB help file, The following information is provided: SMTP settings (attached). Mail Provider is Optusnet. ISP is Firefox. Antivirus is Trend Micro Maximum Security Version 17.9. OS (details attached).

If I have neglected any required info please ask. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you. Flin

This just started happening today. The last message to come through normally was today (August 11) at 10:20 AM EST. Every other message today after that time came through as described in the subject of this post.

I am running Windows 10 Pro version 22H2 fully updated through the July 2025 updates. The Thunderbird version is 141.0 (64-bit). No new Thunderbird add-ons have been installed.

The columns for Subject and Correspondents are there, but they are blank for all my messages after 10:20 AM. The message body is like I said—it looks like I selected View|Message Source. I have both of my email accounts for Optimum and Gmail on Thunderbird. Optimum is POP and Gmail is IMAP. The Gmail message that I received a few minutes ago looks normal. The messages accessed on my Optimum webmail account look fine as well so it looks to me to be a Thunderbird issue.

I have tried the following:

1. Repaired the Inbox folder within Thunderbird.

2. Restarted Thunderbird in Safe Mode.

3. Exited Thunderbird, deleting the global-messages-db.sqlite file in my profile folder and restarting Thunderbird.

4. Exited Thunderbird, deleting the Inbox.msf file in my profile folder and restarting Thunderbird.

5. Reviewed all the Thunderbird settings—they looked OK.

6. Rebooted my computer.

7. Uninstalled Thunderbird via Control Panel|Programs and Features, then downloaded and installed the current version of Thunderbird from the official website.

I have uploaded a screenshot of what my Thunderbird screen currently looks like.

Thanks for any help.

Hello,

Recently I have started to have emails fail to deliver to a certain domain and the message that comes back is

550 DKIM Sender Invalid - envelope rejected.

I am using Thunderbird v128.8.1 esr (64-bit). Extensions installed are: 1. Attachment Saver (Deimios, v.0.2.2) 2. FileLink provider for Send (Teal Dulcet v2.1.1) 3. Remove Duplicate Messages (Eyal Rozenberg v0.6.1)

I have been in communication with this client for several years and not had this problem before. When I send email to the same recipients using WebMail there is no problem, it is only when I send from Thunderbird.

I am not using any encryption type of setup.

Has anyone come across this before? Does anyone know of a solution?

Thanks, Franc.

All, recently set up email accounts and all was well. Used TB years ago & liked it for its ease. Now my signature is not working (set up with 'attach signature from a file instead' option FYI). Tried everything I can think of, disable add ons in troubleshoot mode etc. deleing & re-adding it. No new add ons have been added before this happened, they were added prior to setting up signature. And worked fine initially. Thoughts and please keep it simple for someone very old lol - pic attached for help perhaps?

TIA and appreciated

I can't login to one of my email addresses. It says login to server with username failed. I tried all of the suggestions (using a pop server for example) and none of them seem to work. Please help.

Have always set up accounts so they download all messages to hard drive.

Since 3/27/25, it is as if it never officially logs the downloads as downloaded, so it downloads each day as if it hasn't been done since 3/27/25, marking all of the messages since then as new.

File is very large so want to try fixing without deleting entire file.

Tried the 'repair this folder' but that didn't work.

Having trouble identifying the exact folder on the hard drive to delete since there are several different accounts in the Thunderbird setup.

At lunchtime today I started getting emails with no header sender or other info. It is just blank and the emails dont show just a load of source info in the message body.

My old email server was Mediacom (mchsi.com). I had that email account plus a gmail account on Thunderbird. Sometimes people said their emails to my gmail account would bounce. I changed email servers and no longer have the mchsi.com email or Mediacom server and have 2 gmail accounts on Thunderbird. The new one works fine. When I send an email to the old gmail account it bounces back saying "address not found. Your message wasn't delivered to ------@mchsi.com because the address could not be found or is unable to receive mail. 550 5.1.1 I had the tech that sold me the PC look at the settings on Thunderbird for the gmail account and he said they were okay. Where else can he check? Somehow the pc thinks that just that one gmail account is run through or attached to mchsi.com Kathy foggiak@gmail.com

Thunderbird can receive emails but I cannot send them. I get the error message per the screenshot below concerning SMTP.

I have a MacBook Air with Mac OS Sequoia 15.7.2. The error started yesterday (21 November). Just finished conversing with Optus support and they say that it's not at their end: webmail works okay, can receive email and send it (will note there was a brief hiccough earlier today when could not send from webmail, but okay now). All settings as recommended (port for incoming server actually different from what Optus recommends, but when I changed it from 995 to 110, Thunderbird stopped being able to download emails, so changed it back again. Port for outgoing is as recommended, 25.) I tried lowering security, as suggested by Thunderbird help list, and no change so restored it.

I have the latest version of Thunderbird for Mac, 145.0.

My partner, who also uses Thunderbird, cannot send emails either. He has an older Mac running an older OS.

I have included two images, the second one showing details of selected server. When I clicked 'fetch certificate' it failed. Does that signify anything important?

The error console shows a lot of information, which of course I cannot understand, but can screenshot some of it if that would help.

No firewall, no virus protection, no VPN.

Any ideas as to what might be going on?

Something horrible and time-consuming has changed within this past week to Thunderbird. My version is 140.7 1esr 64bit. Over the past 4 days or so, I've found I cannot scroll down and see the full emails--until I have to use this new pop-up system.

This is definitely not an improvement in my estimation. Is there any way to undo this?

I just installed Thunderbird on a second computer and I'm having serious issues with my email. The install recognized me without having to log in with my password. However almost all the emails are missing with the exception of one folder called Trash. There is nothing in the inbox and no sub-folders are showing. I logged out and then reopened Thunderbird and again it opened without asking for my password. It's very strange and alarming quite frankly. Everything worked quite well on the first computer so what gives with fiasco? Unless somebody comes up with a solid answer and fixes this, it will be the last time I use Thunderbird. Patrick

I spent hours yesterday deleting and moving to local folders over 6,000 emails. Today they are all back! They appear to be all greyed out as if I had read all of them, and the ones I moved to my local folders seem to all be there in the folders I moved them to, in addition to still being in my inbox. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Been getting a bunch of this, usually in my TB TRASH folder, I think from the Outlook online server.

The server couldn't retrieve the following message:

Subject: "<Removed for PII>"

From: "Not available" ("Not available")

Sent date: 10/31/2024 2:25:02 PM

The message hasn't been deleted. You might be able to view it using either Outlook or Outlook Web App. You can also contact the sender to find out what the message says.

I have 2 personal email accounts: Outlook and Gmail. My client is Thunderbird. Running Win11 25H2. Far as I know, problem began recently. This is a screenshot of some messages from TBirds TRASH folder.

User's image (In images) Thunderbird just tried to fetch emails. Got a notification that it could not get messages, this time from GMail.

What does this mean? Outlook/Gmail servers or Thunderbird? What do I need to do?

My Sent folder disappeared. How do I restore the folder with the sent messages still intact. Or, at the least, just restore an empty Sent folder. The In-Box, Drafts, and Trash are still there.

All the settings are correct, and it seems that because there's no Sent folder I cannot send an email. When I try to send a message I get the attached Error.

My local phone company routes email through Yahoo Mail, then to Thunderbird. It was all working fine until my Sent folder disappeared. Now because of the missing Sent folder I have to create the email message in Thunderbird saving it in Drafts so I have a record. Then, I have to copy it and send it from Yahoo Mail. Needless to say this is a pain in the you know what.

Can someone please provide the instructions to get my Sent folder back?

Thanks,

Tess
