I've been searching for a few days for a solution to Yahoo Mail not downloading to Thunderbird, I've seen other people with the same problem, I've tried different solutions, but at this point I've given up. My Gmail is still downloading but I have to check my Yahoo Mail via a browser. What gives? Why did this happen in the first place?

I have Windows 11, I've updated Thunderbird.

Just what it says. Using the latest version of Thunderbird on Windows 11 Pro.

I have had my usa.net account use the same IMAP settings forever; I double-checked my settings and they are correct.

Now, I get a LOT of email on that account -- I typically download it when I hit 10K messages. This usually isn't a problem.

I tried moving all of my current Inbox (already in TBird) to my archives. I was then able to download about 1K messages and then it stalled downloading. Said I either didn't have write access to the disk or had a file permission. I'm not seeing anything on the web interface for usa.net on this.

Now, I have 3 other IMAP accounts on T-bird -- 1 is never used (default from my ISP), a 2nd is very light traffic (mostly I stick with that email provider because they are small and still have private shell accounts) and the 3rd is my business vanity domain--high traffic but not the same as usa.net (where I get ALL my receipts for any online purchases, daily newsletters, help forums, etc).

Any idea what may be going on? Please be kind; I am not a programmer, just a more tech-savvy than the average bear (as in if IT is busy at work people ask me for regular stuff).

If any more info/filedump stuff is needed to see what's going on, please do let me know and I will tag it up asap.

Thanks again, community!

Recently I have noticed some changes in the way my Thunderbird downloads POP3 messages. Previously, it would be common to ask for new messages once a day and receive upwards of one hundred of them. But in the last month, this number has been limited to about 35 at a time. If I ask immediately again, I get about 35 more, and this pattern continues as long as there are messages in queue waiting to be downloaded. I am not sure if this is due to changes in gmail, where most of my received messages originate, or to changes in Thunderbird itself, or to some sort of third-party hack. Now that I have trained myself to keep on asking until there are no more messages coming down, this change does not cause me much difficulty, although initially it sometimes caused me to overlook messages because I failed to keep asking as long as I should have. Apart from that, it does not seem to be harmful as far as I can tell. I'd just like to know if other people have noticed anything similar, and if anyone knows what is causing it, and whether it has some hidden advantages over the way things used to work.

Hello,

let me tell you that I have a few hundred email filters defined, and they (almost all) work fine.

There are three filters that cause problems, and it looks like the problem sticks to the sender.

Let me expand: FAZ, REWE, and Campact cause problems. Two out of three emails from these senders can't be moved to the target folders. I get a pop-up messeage telling me that I have to repair the folder. I do so, and a few days later the same problem comes up. Just for these three senders.

I searched all folders for filters for these three and removed all filters I could find.

Then I created a new folder as a child to the inbox folder, and a new folder inside of this folder to hold emails from FAZ. I defined a new filter rule, as the old ones were removed. Worked for a few emails, and, voila, the message pop-up came again, telling me there are problems moving the email over to the (new) target folder.

Let me repeat: all other filters work fine, just emails from these three senders cause problems.

Any idea where I could have a look, a switch to check?

One last information/idea: all three have different email addresses they send from, I will check the ones that do not work, maybe there is a clue.

I am using POP3/SMTP, not IMAP.

Hoping for a tipp, a clue, an idea -

Looking at the screen, which identity does everybody think this message is going out as?

We observe those three possibilities. See the first image. Apparently the first possibility is the one that is chosen. I'm talking about just an email address with no name.

Okay, in the second image it turns out it was not the first possibility that was chosen it was the second possibility.

However at the bottom of the screen again we see it seems to be saying it was the first possibility.

No I'm not saying I ever expected it to be the first possibility. I'm just saying that this needs all to be 150% more clearer.

I'm not asking any questions I'm actually reporting of bug, yes.

When I try to download messages from Proton’s inbox, I get this message: “Thunderbird. The current operation on ‘Inbox’ did not succeed. The mail server for account loiscodling@proton.me responded: no such mailbox.. .”

If I access the account directly through Firefox, the inbox is visible with a large number of files in it. Mail in all the other folders on Proton has downloaded correctly to Thunderbird, but not the inbox.

large tranches of emails disappeaed from Thunderbird folders but are on the server. How do I force a download to restore them? Using windows 10 and latest Thunderbird

I use Thunderbird for my WOW email. Today it stopped working (incoming) I even changed my password on WOW and have logged into my email at WOW with the new password. Thunderbird says Login to server smtp.mail.wowway.com has failed. Then asked me to enter a password. I did all that and it still has the error.

the startup message at lower left always says "no new messages", while the icon in the taskbar indicates a number of new messages, i'm sending and receiving msgs fine

cleared Tbird inbox, closed Tbird sent a test message from outside email upon Tbird startup, the initial msg at lower left says: contacting host...then "no new messages" Tbird icon in the taskbar shows a red dot with a "1" click Get Messages icon at upper left, and you see at the lower left "downloading message 1 of 1"

since installing Tbird on Win11 this behavior has been consistent, the initial message at lower left always says there are "no new messages"

Thunderbird 140.4.0 / Win11Home 24H2

For many years now I have had several email accounts 'share' Thunderbird's Global Inbox (Local Folders) and this has worked fine (by the way I'm using POP throughout).

For a long time I have also had a separate email account (call this account A) using its own Inbox. Again, all has been working fine.

Very recently I created a new account (Account B) and directed this to use Account A's Thunderbird inbox (via Account B's Server Settings, Advanced...) and selected the "Include this server when getting new mail" option. All looked fine at that stage (I did not think to go back and check Account A's Server Settings, Advanced...). Under Account B's Copies and Folders I also directed Account B to use Account A's folders.

As I expected, Account B did not have any of its own folders created.

On selecting Account A in the folder pane and checking for emails (via the Get messages icon at the top of the folder pane), only Account B was checked (as evidenced by the status bar messages scrolling through at the bottom of the window). This was most perplexing - had I somehow lost a whole bunch of messages that I knew should be sitting in the inbox at the mail server?

However, I soon found the culprit. Account A's Server Settings, Advanced.... were completely greyed out (and so effectively disabled) - see image attached.

So setting up a 2nd email account to download to 1st email account's inbox disables downloading of 1st email account's inbox messages. No warning of this is given - it just happens behind the scenes.

Is this all a conscious design decision (and, if so, why?)? Or is it simply a bug? Is there a solution / workaround?

Just to be clear, selecting or not selecting "Include this server when getting new mail" option has no impact on this one way or the other - it is the attempted sharing of the inbox that gives rise to the issue.

since Oct 31 Thunderbird has not been able to connect to AOL / verizon email server to receive emails. I made no changes. I am able to send email so the connection is good that way.

Message is "login to server pop.verizon.net with user name xxxx failed

Send and receving on phone works ok

So starting this morning, new email shows up on the server, but not in Thunderbird. Clicking on the get e-mail link shows it checking, but it doesn't load new mail into Thunderbird. It appears to be on the server, but not putting it into Thunderbird. Spectrum was in the process of changing the website where we get mail, but it appeared to be okay yesterday. Any ideas? Thanks

When I try to send, or receive emails the following notice pops up: 'Log in to server imap.comcast.net with username [edited from public] @comcast.net failed'.

I am getting the following message using Thunderbird "login to server imap.comcast.net with user id pspringer11@comcast.net failed" it worked until yesterday afternoon please help

I just downloaded Thunderbird to my new computer. It worked fine for a short while. Then it started deleting new emails as soon as they were imported. How can I stop this from happening?
