Whenever I try to download a rar file, like a game from itch.io,0 it automatically fails and doesn't download even after retrying multiple times.

Hi

My name is Ivo. I use Thunderbird for all my Email-Accounts. Now I wanted to add another one, which is info@ivo-zimmermann.ch, but it does not work (pls see screenshots in the attachment).

info@ivo-zimmermann.ch works fine when I login directly on Gmail, it also worked fine to login here into the mozilla support. Also all other accounts that I have (for example info@kanai-zimmermann.ch) were no problem to install.

Do you have an idea where the problem is?

Thank you in advance Ivo

Hello, I installed Thunderbird using POP3 to download all emails from my Zoho Mail server to store them in my PC but although all emails appear now to be in the inbox, there are no subfolders, emails are grouped according to subject titles and I cannot seem to find the latest email on the list. What can I do to display them chronologically by date and restore subfolders and archives? Upon lauching, this is what I get. Thank you

I've - I hope! - followed all the Thunderbird Support instructions on moving a Profile from one computer to another with a different OS (save a copy of the profile file from the first computer, download and install TB on new computer, locate its "Profile" folder, and then either paste the contents of the former profile file into the new profile file [thus overwriting the latter]), then open TB . . . but it didn't work.

I then tried the same, but with a slightly different method: I copied the name of the new profile file, gave it to the old computer's profile file, then renamed the new profile file, and pasted the old profile file -- now with the proper new name -- into the new directory. . . that, too, didn't work.

I've spent a few hours trying to get this to work, and am nearing the point of giving up on TB as an email solution.

Any help would be very welcome!

hi i'm at my whits end trying to get my data across from windows mail. I paid someone to sort this, and he said it will continue to say the connection is lost while getting data across from windows mail. its been a week now. i cant get it to work properly. none of my addresses are there, mail continues to not arrive at my PC (when I've got it on my phone), it just keeps saying loading message 1 of 3457. but never gets to the total. the number has remained the same for many days now so obviously its loaded all the emails, but it still appears stuck. also the preview window seems to not work (has worked once or twice). frustrated...

dont want to buy stupid microsoft products but i just cant work this way?

I am struggling with Gmail and Yahoo mail account in TB these few days. I hit almost the same errors from both. I generated app password for Yahoo mail, and put it in when setting up new account. For connection security: SSL/TLS For authentication method: tried with Normal password, Encrypted password, and OAuth2 However, I am seeing the expected authentication window pop up when trying the OAuth2. For all three authentication method: errors are always the same --- unable to connect to your IMAP server. I've followed another instruction to change maximum number of server connections to cache into 1 or 10. Error messages were the same imap one. So, what should I do/try for next?

i have an old win10 machine with a huge thunderbird profile - 37.9GB size / 75.2GB disk. i'd like to move it with Tools Export / Import to a new win11 machine.

on win10 i click thru tools > export > open profile folder

and in ...\thunderbird\profiles i select yhcc00j7.dan and export it to an external ssd.

it runs for hours and then a number of these appear: "Are you sure you want to copy with file without its properties? The file %2B...." has properties that can't be copied to the new location.... Type WDSEML file size 1.02KB....".

so i check "Do this for all current items" and hours later it finishes.

on win11 i click thru tools > import > import from another thunderbird profile > choose a profile and select the folder yhcc00j7.dan on the ssd and import everything > start

for a minute or so it says "importing .... 0%" but no new profile shows up in ...appdata\roaming\thunderbird\profiles\ and then "import failed unexpectedly" is displayed.

i've tried this twice. both machines have version 115.11.1 "esr update channel". what am i doing wrong?

I am the tech admin at my school and one of my user's hard drives is totally full. I ran a sorted disk space command and found that the folder ~/Library/Thunderbird/Profiles/5itb4j1n.default/ImapMail/imap.googlemail.com is 57GB. The hard drive is only 120 GB! Needless to say, I need to get this off the computer. It is a MacBook Air M1 running OS Sonoma 14.1.1 (can't upgrade because no disk space!)

The user accesses her Gmail through Thunderbird. There are messages in her Thunderbird history that are not available to her in Gmail because she integrated Thunderbird previously with her Yahoomail (before we switched to Google for our mail server). So we cannot delete Thunderbird because she needs it to be able to access old emails.

I'd like to know some options for having her continue to use Thunderbird (because she likes its layout) but without Thunderbird downloading and keeping a copy of every message/attachment that arrives.

I also want to know the best way to backup her existing Thunderbird and then be able to access it in the future, so that if she does need to access her historical archive of email messages, she can.

I run Mac OS X version 10.11.6, El Capitan. I have used Apple's Mail.app for many years. I'm trying to convert to Thunderbird, version 52.5.2. I have successfully created a TB account, but I have not been able to create usable copies of any of my Mail.app mailboxes in TB.

I have faithfully followed "Importing Apple Mail messages" in the page titled "Switching from Apple Mail to Thunderbird". That method thinks it works, but imports exactly 0 mailboxes.

I also went through all of "Install, Migrate and Update" multiple times, but nothing there helps.

Finally, I tried TB's Events and Tasks --> Import... path, but that processes only files of types .ics (for calendars) .csv "Outlook Comma Separated Values (*.csv)" (or .ics for calendars).

I did discover that Mail.app has an "Export Mailbox..." option, which will produce a mname.mbox directory for each exported mailbox. I've tried getting TB to use that as input by copying it to the Local Folders directory before starting TB. TB somewhat recognizes the .mbox folders that are there, but it doesn't show the mail to me when I select them.

So the question is: How DO I get my current mail copied to TB?

I have three calendars that I use on one of Tbirds installed on one of my PCs. I can export two of them but not the third one. If I click on the third calendar in the left column then select export, nothing happens. When I do the same with the other two, a dialog box opens where I can change or add the ICS file and its destination folder. If I try using Events and Tasks to export, the same thing happens. It is a mystery to me. Does anyone know of a fix for this? I am using Tbird 102.11.0 (64-bit) release.

Hi, In a new Windows 11 PC Thunderbird 115.81.1 (64-bit) was installed. Then I did /Server Settings/Message storage/Local Directory/F:Mail

The F:\Mail is an external USB-drive. The left pane then showed two main folders:

x@y.no Local Folders

In both of these there is an Inbox sub-folder. The one under "Local Folders" shall be set as the "Global Inbox". In many pages on the web, e.g. a MozillaZine page, it is explained how to do this. The key point here is to navigate to the "Server Settings" and clock on the "Advanced button".

My problem is that there is none; see the uploaded image.

Could anyone, please, tell me where I did my error?

Best regards; ChG

I have a new PC. After installing Thunderbird onto my new PC, emails from my old PC are not there. Can these be recovered? I have a copy of my old PC hard drive files but not the actual PC. Thanks Jim Ferrier

When I got a new computer, my account was automatically set up as IMAP but I could not send emails, though I can receive on the IMAP version. I went into manual configuration and copied all the configuration information from my (working) old computer to it, using its POP3/SMTP settings, but when I Retest I get an error: 'Thunderbird failed to find the settings for your email account' I've double-checked everything and am at a standstill. I really need help!

I have installed and am running Thunderbird on my new laptop, and would like to use the profile from my old computer. I have followed the instructions provided, and copied the profile (renamed) into the folder on the new laptop. When I run "thunderbird.exe-p" I receive a message "cannot find Thunderbird.exe-p" and asked to try again, but without success. I would be grateful for help on this problem. With thanks Alan

Hi all I recently bought a new laptop that has to be exchanged as it's faulty. I had no problem moving my profile from my win 10 laptop to the new win 11 one, however I now need to put all my emails back to my old laptop and although I can go through the import procedure when I restart Thunderbird none of the new emails are there. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I installed Thunderbird yesterday and tried to connect my work account, which is a Google workspace gmail account with the organization's domain instead of gmail.com. I set the servers as smtp.gmail.com and managed to select OAuth2 for authentication (this was difficult and required me to set the port at 465). I went through the permission process with Google, which now acknowledges (in a very warning sort of way) that Thunderbird has access to my account. I even sent an email from Thunderbird, which showed up in the sent folder on the gmail account and was received by the sent to account. However, I see only an empty inbox and empty local Trash and Outbox folders in Thunderbird. It's just not syncing anything (or maybe downloading anything?) from the gmail account. I need it to sync all my mail folders and my calendars as well, so two big problems need to be solved before I can use Thunderbird at all. I sure appreciate any help I can get!

Hello, I am trying to add my email accounts but keep getting " Thunderbird Failed to find the settings for your email account" I have checked the settings with my provider, they are correct.

Incoming us2.imap.mailhostbox.com 993 SSL/TTS Outgoing smtp.ireg.com 25 or 587 STARTTLS Username and password on the Outgoing server as well as on the Incoming server.

I know my email address’s and passwords are correct as they work in MS Outlook (PC) and Bluemail (Android) Any help would be appreciated.

Tired of Apple mail, want to install Thunderbird 78.14.0 on my mac mini. Am running Yosemite 10.10.5.

I can see access to the files on this site but need an installer to load to system.

Am familiar with unix can work off a console but am not a programmer, wouldn't know one end of a compiler from the other.

Can you point me in the right direction?

I came across this message from March 2022 -

"I read at AskLeo that I could use Thunderbird with Gmail as a way to backup my Gmail emails to my computer. I then want to backup the Thunderbird folder using a backup program to save the emails to an external drive.

On Windows 10 Home, where do I find the emails that Thunderbird is downloading from Gmail? I recently installed Thunderbird 102.1.0 (64-bit) using IMAP and OAuth2 authentication. "

which describes my problem well.

The answer relates to Windows 10, but I am using Linux Mint. I think I installed Thunderbird flatpack version but I cannot find the profile to backup and although I think all my emails (around 25,000) were downloaded from gmail, I cannot find them and so cannot take a backup.
