I am updating from a PC running Windows 10 to an iMac OS 10.3.6. I have important emails stored in local folders on the PC that I need to keep and access when necessary from the Mac. I have read everything I can find on your website and in forums, and have copied the Thunderbird files onto a thumb drive. (See below the files that were copied). I have no idea what to do now. Please help!

I accidentally deleted my gmail account. When I reinstated it I noticed that the old data was not there. I have several profiles saved and can't find out which one contains the data I want. Importing them (the profiles I have saved) only produces more profiles when I decide is not what I am looking for. Is there a way to read contents of a profile without importing into Thunderbird (I have been using the ImportExport add on tool?

I would like clarification about changing Thunderbird email to IMAP. On one of my devices I use POP to access my email accounts, other devices use IMAP. The POP account is set to NOT delete email from the server so all the emails I need are still on the server. Am I correct that if I delete the POP email accounts from Thunderbird the emails stored on the device will be deleted but still be left on the server. So I can just delete the POP accounts from Thunderbird and then add them as IMAP without losing emails from the server.

Hallo zusammen,

ich habe ein Problem beim Wiederherstellen meines Adressbuches des alten TB-Profils. Bisher probiert:

1. .mab-Dateien aus dem alten Profil in den aktuellen Profilordner abgelegt Die Dateien konnten nicht erkannt werden.

2. .mab-Dateien per Öffnen mit Editor angesehen, dabei stellt sich heraus, dass die Inhalte der "alten" .mab-Dateien kryptisch sind, im Gegensatz zu denen des aktuellen Profils. Unten die Screenshots der 3 Dateien, die ich per Editor geöffnet habe.

3. Die Formatierung (Schriftart) aller 3 Dateien geprüft - sind alle auf "Consolas, Standard, 11pt, westlich" eingestellt.

Jetzt bin ich ratlos, wie ich die "alten" .mab-Dateien ins richtige Format verwandeln kann, so dass sie von TB erkannt werden.

Vielleicht noch wichtig: Mein PC hatte Windows 8 installiert, sich dann selbständig auf Windows 10 geupdated. Danach waren mehrere Probleme vorhanden (nicht mit TB), weshalb ich den PC komplett habe neu aufsetzen lassen (Windows 10). Nach diesem Neuaufsetzen waren alle TB-Dateien verloren gegangen, da der AppData-Ordner nicht explizit mitgesichert wurde. Die "alten" .mab-Dateien wurden dann mit Hilfe eines DeepSearches aus den alten Daten wiedergefunden.

Vielen Dank im Voraus für jede Hilfe und schöne Grüße, Johanna

Thunderbird-Version: 60.4.0 Betriebssystem + Version: Windows 10 Kontenart (POP / IMAP): IMAP

I have changed from Shaw to Telus, the Telus Tech is unsure if I will loose all my folders and address book within the Mozilla Thunderbird when she changes the Server Settings?

I recently tried reinstalling Thunderbird after our laptop was fixed and upgraded. Everytime I get to entering the details it tells me my password is incorrect - I know its correct as I can access it via a different site.

I HATE using outlook as it will not remember email addresses and I miss Thunderbird.

How do I get past this issue when I KNOW my password is correct??

Had to reinstall Windows 10 after a crash. Then had to reinstall Thunderbird. I had been archiving my saved emails in the Local Folders within Thunderbird, but those contents are no longer accessible after the reinstallation. I would like to recover those saved emails. I would appreciate help.

I've installed Thunderbird for the first time and never used it before. I am unable to set up my existing personal Gmail account(s).

When I provide the name/email/password, and select IMAP, the menu hangs for a long time (minutes) saying "Checking password..." Then it finally gives up and says "Configuration could not be verified -- is the username or password wrong?"

Thunderbird version: 60.4.0 (64-bit) Linux kernel: 4.20.2-arch1-1-ARCH

- I'm 110% certain that I have the correct email/password combination. - I have verified that less secure app access is turned ON in my Gmail settings - GMail 2-step verification is turned OFF - I'm pretty sure there is no firewall on my computer getting in the way - I have tried other Gmail accounts and gotten the same failure

Any idea how to figure out what is causing the problem? I'm at a complete loss.

I want to transfer my mail from an old Windows XP computer running Thunderbird 45.8.0 to a Windows 7 computer (Thunderbird not installed yet). The "How to transfer mail to a new computer" instructions are pretty clear (copy old Thunderbird folder to new computer), but do I have to do anything special regarding the old source files? Can I install the newest version of Thunderbird on Windows 7 and replace the folder with the old one, or do I have to install an old version of Thunderbird (45.8.0) first?

I bought a new desktop Lenovo. I use Thunderbird for my email client in my old computer. I have 20 folders in my Thunderbird email client in my old computer with tons of emails for each folder for each client. I went on-line and followed the instructions on copying and pasting the data to a new drive. I then installed Thunderbird on my new computer and did as instructed to get the data from my old computer/Thunderbird imported to my new Thunderbird client on my new computer, however, when I then open up Thunderbird on my new computer, it doesn't recognize any of the data I imported. Any words of wisdom

I am using Thunderbird on my WIN10 PC now, but I have close to 20 years worth of data on Eudora on an old PC (XP); I have converted data from Eudora to Thunderbird on the old PC, but I need to be able to append it into the current version on the new PC, without overwriting the current files and erasing the newer emails.

Can it be done?

The KnowledgeBase has instructions to move my Profiles folder, which will bring over accounts and some other stuff to my new PC afer I install Thunderbird on the computer.

Will all of my subfolders transfer? I have more than a dozen folders, some with archived emails, others with email templates I use repeatedly, Sent, Trash, etc.. Will all of that come across with my profiles folder? Or is that kept somewhere else?

How about my Address Book? How about my filters?

Thanks in advance for any help. Bill

I have an old Win 7 laptop running Thunderbird (V64.04.0 32 Bit). I need to transfer emails and contacts to my new Win 10 with Thunderbird. I have tried to do this as from FAQ, eg 1) downloaded "importexporttools-3.3.0-sm+tb" which will not run nor can I find a way to activate it from T/B; 2) installed and restarted T/B with import / export add on "Thunderbook" but there is no visibility of how to start the export facility. Any advice on how to transfer emails and contacts in a simple manner would be appreciated

I am virtually certain i was able to easily do this using the import tools on the version of thunderbird I had about a year ago. But Outlook Express is no longer an option when I open the import tool.

I've installed Thunderbird on other computers and have never seen this error (?) message. I have an HP 15-bs188cl 64-bit laptop, running on Windows 10 Home, 16 gb memory, 2T hard drive.

Thunderbird seemed to install correctly. At least, no error messages. Then when I tried to set up a couple of existing email accounts on it, it gave me a screen that said "You are about to override how Thunderbird identifies this site." In the past, I've always just entered the name of the email address like johndoe at gmx dot com and the password and Thunderbird took it from there. That's as far as I got and then I got this message. I feel uncomfortable overriding anything when I don't know why. I only tried setting up two email accounts a gmx one and a hotmail one and got the same message on both of them. I attached screen prints.

Also can you tell me how to copy my email addresses and all the folder info from Thunderbird in my old laptop to the new one, or point me to articles that tell me how to do that? And should that all be copied before I install Thunderbird or after?

Thank you for your help, Carole

I downloaded an mbox file and I installed the ImportExport tool. I am attempting to import the mbox file via the ImportExport tool but every time I get the beach ball and have to force quit because Thunderbird is not responding. Please help!
