I am running TB 128.5.2esr on a new Macbook pro. I've recently been forced off POP into IMAP using OAUTH by google which now requires IMAP only with Google workspace emails. I have a somewhat detailed folder structure for all my incoming mail that benefits from TB filters.

At first I tried reconstructing this folder structure on the IMAP server, but it was a nightmare and did not work correctly.

I have finally found a solution where I filter all incoming email onto a local folder set. However am now finding that the bodies of the filtered emails are coming blank 50% of the time - most likely because the filter is executing faster than the IMAP will load the whole message.

Is there a way to delay the filter execution on the IMAP inbox so that when the filter executes it will copy the message headers AND the body reliably?

In case someone is wondering: this is not a network or connection issue. I am running on hardwired connection on fiber network, and the messages that make it or don't make it are randomly sized (small ones fail while big ones don't and vice versa).

Setting aside the POP vs. IMAP discussions, I will say that I miss POP because it allowed me to "catch" all my email in the gmail server, while using it as I saw fit on my TB/local computer. Now I'm required to mirror both - which is not helpful to me.

Thank you for any help.

Hello, after googling the topic I only get answers from 2018 or older ... with suggestions that don't work or are not existing anymore. E.g. - type a word > double click it (highlight) > click on 'insert' in toolbar > 'mail to:' ??? there is no such option .. ... why a word? any word?

Any real answers for 2025?

Thanks

neuen Ordner in Thunderbird vom Mailserver übertragen(synchronisieren) funktioniert nicht. Habe auf dem Mailserver einen neuen unterordner im Archivordner angelegt. Dieser wird aber nicht in Thunderbird übertragen

Hello, I'm trying to setup a new email account using POP3 using the settings recommended by Privateemail and it does not work. Everything is fine if I use IMAP. But I really prefer POP3 I contacted them but can't identify the problem and asked me to revert to you. Can you please help, Thanks beforehand

Hello sfhowes,

Thank you for your response and I tried to follow your instructions. In one of the two accounts, I couldn't change POP mail server to IMAP mail server. I changed the Port to 993 but I couldn't change the Default to 993. Also, the outgoing SMTP server only appeared in the Default account, and not the other. I tried sending emails to both accounts, but the emails only appeared in the Sent folders and not the Inbox folders. The funny thing is that the emails appeared in the Inbox on my other computer! Will you be able to make the changes on this computer from your end? Once again, thank you so much for your help, and I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Sheila Herman

1. Recently, I'm not receiving any more new emails on this computer. What is causing this? Please help me solve this problem. 2. I just received a notification that Mozilla will shut down Pocket's services on July 8, 2025. I'm not sure that I utilize this service. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Sheila Herman

My signature block in an external file stopped working a couple days after i migrated to a different machine (but it worked temporarily)

I went into debug mode to try and analyze but have not been able to get out of debug mode,

Hi. Right now mesages with same subject are shown under first message (Uploaded image), this is good, but I would like to see them like messages in gmail. If I open any message I would see all this messages in message pane as list. Where I could make some compact or if I want I could expand all messages and see them all at once. Is this posible in Thunderird?

I have numerous folders in my email account. Some folders have subfolders. I have one case where a folder has two subfolders, but when I expand to show the subfolders, only one subfolder is displayed. The main folder and both subfolders existed in my account before I installed Thunderbird.

Hoping that someone can get me pointed in the right direction to sort out a problem I'm having.

I've been using Thunderbird successfully for a number of years on a few different PCs to access my email account. It worked just fine years ago with AT&T and more recently Frontier email servers. Several months ago Frontier discontinued their email service. But I had a "Free Email For Life" account which they automatically switched over to a Yahoo Email account which allowed me to continue using my long standing "@Frontier.com" address. The change over went pretty smoothly and Thunderbird was still working as expected. Until it didn't.

In the last month or two Thunderbird in two Windows machines will not connect to my Yahoo email account. I continually get messages indicating a "time out" issue when attempting to connect. But I can still access my email by logging directly into my Yahoo webmail account.

The two main Thunderbird installations, one on a Win 10 laptop and another on a Win 7 Pro desktop are the main problem areas with time-outs and no connection established. Oddly enough Thunderbird for Android seems to work just fine on my phone.

The only free tech help that Yahoo would provide was essentially to check my SMTP server settings, which I did again for probably the fourth or fifth time. I also changed my password which was a couple years old . . . just in case. But I'm still spinning my wheels.

Hopefully someone else has had a similar experience and can tell me what I may have overlooked. I don't want to switch to Gmail or any other server if I can avoid it. Yahoo offers their own 3rd party app but it seems a bit futzier and more invasive than Thunderbird. Somebody please point me in the right direction of where to dig in next.

Hello, I have several role-based accounts attached to my work email account. When trying to read an email from one of those role-based account, when Thunderbird tries to load the email, I get the following error message: "The specified object was not found in the store. The store ID isn't an ID of an item." The message never loads. I just get the error message. What does this mean and how do I fix it?

Thanks!

Running Thunderbird V130.0.2 64-bit on Win 11 Pro. I have several profiles, mostly on Gmail. Yesterday I had to change all of my email passwords. I was able to change passwords on Thunderbird for all but one of the Gmail accounts. I still don't understand why I had this issue with one Gmail account but not 2 others. Eventually I deleted the profile in question and created a new profile (same Gmail email address / account).

Which was fine but in doing this I lost my local email folders. I have all of the email folders and I tried just moving them from old profile to new one. This worked fine for local folders (at least the ones I tried) but not for nested folders. The support I've found so far tells me how to move the entire profile, but that doesn't work (I run into the same password problem as I did yesterday).

Is there a way to tell Thunderbird about these nested local email folders so they will be found upon Thunderbird startup? I haven't found it yet.

My local email folders are found here: C:\Users\<Windows Account>\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\<Thunderbird profile>\Mail\Local Folders

Thanks in advance.

Dear Thunderbird, I am using version 128.10.2esr and I have noticed lately that in my Inbox the email From have all been given the same incorrect senders name. This usually happens to emails that contain an attachment How do I correct this ? Thank you. Regards. Steve Hawes.

It would be very useful if I could see Inbox and Sent mail together, in a single list, without including any other folders.

If I use All Mail, it includes all of my archived emails as well. I would like to avoid this when I go through all of my Inbox and Sent emails and put the ones I want to keep into archive folders.

I suppose a simpler and more flexible way to implement this would be to provide the ability to use check boxes to select exactly which folders I want to include in the list. Each folder would have a its own check box. That would be very flexible and incredibly useful.

After my email provider changed some things, to get TB to work I had to delete and add back my five email accounts (discussed in another thread). All those email accounts now work, but their visual presentation is very different (and worse in my opinion). Before, there was one Inbox, Junk, and Trash, all under Local Folders. Now, there are five (one for each email account) sets of Inbox, Junk, and Trash. They appear above Local Folders which now contains only items put there before my problem started.

I've attached an image of what this visual presentation looks like now.
