Hello dear Thunderbird members.

Please, I would like your assistance to the following issue.

It's about when creating an existing account on Thunderbird application. Creating a Google mail account, or Yahoo! account (IMAP setting up). Or creating on POP3 module my mail account that I have on my internet provider.

So, the question/problem is, when I create account, all settings are being created (settings I mean incoming mail server, ports, etc), the authentication of username and password is passed, and finally account is created, with inbox folder, and immediately automatic getting messages begins. And, all other folders under inbox are being created/loaded. What I want to ask is if there is a technique, after account creation, only the inbox folder to be created empty, then not starting an automatic getting messages, and only if I click on inbox folder or press the get messages button, just then, the getting messages and folders begin. Just something like say disable automatic getting messages when creating existing account.

Is there any way to make this?

Thank you for your time!

Recently, I have been unable to hold down backspace to delete multiple characters in certain text boxes in Firefox. Namely, in the EndeavorOS forum post text box, Google Docs, and the google search box. I am not experiencing this issue with any other app, and in chrome, with the same pages, the issue doesn’t occur. The issue also does not occur in the URL box or the forum post text box here. The issue still occurs in troubleshoot mode.

Hello all!

Me and my colleagues are using Thunderbird already 5-6 years. We are very happy with it!

Until Supernova ... It was like a jam full of "flavors" ... however ... All my colleagues use it ( I don't know how?, in my opinion they just don't give a ****, or exist on other planet ) ... except me and one other person.

ON QUESTION !

So on 1st PC updates are disabled in Registry via "DisableAppUpdate" and there are no signs of this Supernova! On 2nd PC is just like this, but on 22.03 thunderbird updated itself! Steps that I made are these :

1. Deleted compatibility.ini 2. Downgraded to 102.15 3. Created distribution folder with policies.json (will copy text below the post) got them from : https://mozilla.github.io/policy-templates/ 4. Renamed updater.exe 5. Created more registry entries /// "AppAutoUpdate"- 0, ExtentionUpdate - 0 6. Uninstalled maintenance.exe

After all this thunderbird is working just fine. I restarted PC several times, made a shutdown - all OK. Until the next morning. And every morning I just added more settings I founded in internet until I ended here. Today is day 4. And same again ...

Please for some help.

Best Regards,

The web page

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Native_messaging#troubleshooting

says: if the native application sends any output to stderr, the browser will redirect it to the browser console.

Is that still supposed to work? I'm asking because it seems that in recent versions of firefox that no longer works. I do not see any output that my native app emits to stderr. I tried multiple systems (all Windows based) and multiple versions of Firefox (including "115.9.1esr (64-Bit)" and "116.0.3 (64-bit)")

Hi there!

I have 20+ email accounts on my Thunderbird, Mac os and some are from my old websites that aren't functional anymore, but I would love to back up the data as there's quiet of useful / business info in them.

So, is it possible to just back up selected accounts from Thunderbird, instead of backing up the entire profile of 30+GBs?

If yes, how ? and will I be able to restore them later ?

Regards Manas

OS : Mac Sonoma 14.4.1 Thunderbird: 115.9.0

Lately Thunderbird is very, very slow to send or receive email from POP3 Gmail. I've noticed the slowdown a while ago, and hoped that a reinstall would fix the issue. But it does not.

I am using a fresh snap install of 115.9.0 on a fresh Ubuntu 24.04, with calendars disabled.

This is what happens:

  • When checking or sending mail, Thunderbird spins up a single CPU core for 130 seconds.
  • The CPU core spins only if Thunderbird is on foreground (not if in background or minimized).
  • I can see on the Network Monitor that until 130 seconds have elapsed no network request are made.
  • After 130 seconds of waiting, some requests to google are made and mail is actually checked in a couple of seconds.

Seems that Thunderbird waits for something that never happens, and actually checks mail only after something times out.

How can I fix this? Do you have any suggestion of what to try?

Regards,

José

I updated FF per regular basis. Now I can't log into Google because my phone is no longer an option. A tablet is an option but it's physically inaccessible. All I did was click update and restart. Nothing unusual about that. My phone can't access Google accounts either. I'm not the most tech savvy and so I have no clues how to remedy this situation.

Suddenly I cannot send emails. I can receive emails. I have checked my account settings and they are correct as follows: Charter Communications mail.twc.com port 587 Starttls normal password ggordets@san.rr.com. I contacted Spectrum and we proved that the problem is not them by initiating an outgoing email to myself using webmail. I even tried uninstalling and re-installing Thunderbird. As indicated above my email is ggordets@san.rr.com

Thank you. P.S. My operating system is Windows 10.

FF doesn't reliably open my last session. It used to but for nearly 18 months now it has become hit and miss. I have FF docked on my taskbar (Win 7 sp1) when I click it some times it opens all my tabs (I have it set to do that) but more frequently it doesn't and just opens one tab. Usually I catch it and in history select the tab showing many other tabs and I get it all back, but this doesn't always work like today, no option to do that because there's nothing there. When is it likely to be fixed, I've been complaining about this for months. I've even suggested FF collects a stack of last sessions (say 20) each time a session is closed and have a fixed entry for that in the menu, but nothing seems to change. I'm heartily sick of it, it's such a basic requirement of any browser and yet with FF it's just a pain in the neck.

I'm having this exact problem from here , but browser.taskbar.lists.tasks.enabled has always been set to true. Toggling it does nothing in itself in between restarting my machine. I am certain it's not a jump menu thing because this isn't about shortcuts (and besides the point, enabling the jump shortcuts from my OS side of things does not display it either way). I just want the stuff that the user in the above link listed.

Coincidentally, I had this exact problem a short while before, and I think it may have had to do with an update, because I remember Firefox updating at least twice fairly recently and it is in this time I've noticed this issue. The first time around it resolved itself, but this time it has not and I do not know the cause.

Unpinning/pinning the icon on the task bar does not resolve this either. It seems none of the conventional solutions in the past work, so unless I am missing something, something broke.
