Any way to get to the mirrored account?

Okay, I have done everything to delete a gmail email account in the 128.6.1esr (64-bit) version of Thunderbird.

1 - In Account Settings = deleted the entire email account 2 - Deleted any association with calendar 3 - Had tech support person (my own) remote in, spend 1/2 hour and could not find what else needed to be deleted.

Here's the thing: I get a popup from google saying xxxx@gmail.com saying:

"Sign in to continue to Mozilla Thunderbird email"

Create Account ....... Next

Click on Next = 404 error (and Google says nothing can be done about it in so many words) Click on Create Account = "something went wrong"

Can someone help? This popup occurs about every 5 minutes and I cannot receive *or* send email while the popup is open. So annoying.


Thanks in advance.

I just added a new email server to handle my mail. It is a local hosting company that I use. I already have another email address with them. When I added the new account I noticed that the Sent and Drafts folders were missing under the 'Inbox'. Image 1 shows how the existing email account is setup with the drafts, sent and Junk folders under Inbox. The image 2 shows how the new account is showing up, no drafts or sent folders.

I am subscribed to them all.

How to get the Drafts and Sent folders under Inbox?

Please Please Please advise how to modify settings to stop copying emails to "All Mail" folder. There are nearly 14K emails in that folder, and it's killing my capacity, I'm getting warnings, etc. Yes, I'm using Gmail.

Yes, I have unsubcribed from it, starting from my account name → Subscribe → unchecked [Gmail] All Mail. To no avail...

Of course, I do not want to delete mails I have saved in my hundreds of other folders. My mail goes back 25+ years, and I want to keep those archives.

Thank you Thank you Thank you!

Have been trying to set up some pop3 yahoo mail accounts on a new computer. I have used automatic configuration. I have used manual configuration using the data from my old computer. I have checked the configuration settings on both Yahoo and Thunderbird sites. In all instances Thunderbird verifies the account is valid, but the next window asks for my yahoo username and password. I cannot get passed this stage. I have tried entering my yahoo password and I have also tried the app generated password from Yahoo, all I get is a Yahoo "something went wrong" message. Interestingly I did manage to get one of the accounts to work yesterday, but I must have tried no end of different permutations and I have no idea which one eventually worked.

Hi, I'm tring to rearrange the order of my email accounts in the left hand pane. The FAQ says sandwich icon -> account settings -> move them around in the desired order. This looks OK in the account settings list when I do that, but when I close it, the accounts order is as before, and this order shows up again when I re-open the account settings list. Is there any way to make this "stick"? Do I need to click some hidden Confirm button? Many thanks in advance!

Windows 11 64bit. I have Outlook and Gmail accounts. About 6 months ago the Outlook accounts stopped sending messages. Ok, I can live with that as I only use them sparingly. I tried lots of tweaks from this forum but none worked. I am not technically minded so I may have interpereted the wrongly. After the last update 9/10 July 25, the Outlook accounts fail to open. Says something about cookies not enabled on browser. I added the logins to the exceptions but no change. The cookies show on the list as on the PC. So I can't use Outlook anymore. Gmail. Now I can't send any messages from Gmail accounts. Just waits ages and says try again. The email I was replying to disappeared from my inbox when I logged through Google Gmail account. It shows on Thunderbird. I also tried to set up a new Gmail account on Thunderbird, would let me. So now, Thunderbird is useless to me. Shame, I liked it and even donated. How could something go from good to useless in one update?

For reasons I can't fathom, Thunderbird and Google aren't speaking to each other at the moment. :)

have nuisance screens from Google that I cannot provide information in to resolve the problem. I believe that somehow Google is no longer recognizing passwords sent from Thunderbird and vice versa. I'm not receiving email in my Thunderbird inboxes.

My solution is to delete the affected accounts from Thunderbird and add them back. I have passwords.

Before I do this, I thought it prudent to ask the experts if this sounds like a good plan.

What say ye?

Have 3 machines with Tbird, and 3 email accounts. During a password change for one account, TBird hammered the server enough times to get my IP blocked. I removed all 3 acco8nts and started over. In the middle of this, Bird updated and the new version makes it very difficult to stay in manual config, as the auto config continues to hammer the server. Have been unable to complete the 3 setups without the ip getting blocked, have contacted the server support 4 times for unblocking. Why has Tbird made this so difficult? Used to be very easy! I want to do setup manually, and limit the number of times the setup tests the config.

Account information disappeared, cannot be saved

All the information that normally appears when one clicks on the name of an account in account settings (account name, your name, e-mail address, outgoing server to use, signature, et cet.) has disappeared on all three of my accounts. When I re-enter the information, Thunderbird does not save it.

It happens in troubleshooting mode too.

Thunderbird does still know the account names, my name, my e-mail addresses, and my signatures even though that information does not appear on the page.

How can I make Thunderbird show this information again and make sure that it's using the right outgoing servers?

How can I get Thunderbird to find my twc.com account?

Help, please! I have a twc.com account operating with Outlook 2007 on an old Dell Win7 laptop. It works great but too many websites refuse to recognize the Win7 machine, so I had to "upgrade". I just got a new Dell Win11 laptop and installed Spectrum email to access twc.com. So far, so good. But I need to access the hundreds of email files and folders from the old Outlook-based twc.com account. Can't export them to Spectrum.net as .pst because only Outlook recognizes that file extension. I do not want Office 365, so I tried installing Office 2024. But it's bundled with Office 365. I even installed an old version of Office 2010. When I tried to set up email with twc.com, I got a popup telling me that I had to get Office 365 to do this. Diabolical.

Enter Thunderbird. I downloaded and installed Tbird. I then attemped to use Tbird to be the client for twc.com. I've tried for several days with no success. First I had Tbird search for my twc.com account. Tbird said:

IMAP Incoming: IMAP, SSL/TLS mobile.charter.net Outgoing: SMTP, SSL/TLS mobile.charter.net Username: [edited]@twc.com

Results were quite different from what Spectrum had told me by phone (see below) but I tried this anyway. Got an error message: "Cannot find the server." etc.

So I tried manual setup using the information provided by Spectrum, as follows:

[edited]@twc.com incoming mail.twc,com outgoingmail.twc,com incoming port 995 outgoing port 587 security type TLS

Got the same error message: "Cannot find the server." etc. I then tried half a dozen different changes: change the security type, etc. Nothing worked.

I really need to succeed with this so that I can access all my email files and folders on one computer (the Win11 model). Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
