Using Thunderbird 115.11.0 (64-bit) on Manjaro (Linux - fully updated). Thunderbird is a great and fantastic email client and I will always appreciate Mozilla for its principals.

I'm using IMAP and I moved some messages from a Gmail account to another IMAP account and somewhere along the way, an additional 10,000+ emails have been duplicated (about one third).

How can I systematically remove duplicates without the use of an add-on? The reason I don't wish to use an add-on is because every add-on I've found requires the following permission Have full, unrestricted access to Thunderbird, and your computer. and that is absolutely terrifying.

Are there any remedies for (systematically) handling duplicates without handing over all the keys to the kingdom?

A while ago my long-time hotmail account stopped working on two computer with windows 10 and one with windows 11. Last night, I looked up an article that said I have to use Oauth2 instead of normal pw. I made that change on the windows 11 machine and a popup occurred that wanted the number from the google authenticator on my phone. I gave it that and it checks mail now just fine.

This morning I went to one of the Windows 10 machines and did exactly the same. I tried some different server names online and tried some, but after a while I started getting a little window that asked my email address and pw. I put my hotmail address in and got this message:

Microsoft Accounts or personal email addresses don’t work here. Make sure you enter your work or school account (e.g. user@contoso.com). If you want to reset a Microsoft Account password, click here.

Now this is the very same hotmail email that worked on windows 11 with the same server settings last night. It still works.

Now, on the windows 10 machine with those same settings, I get the blank extra window. The extra window appears, does not populate, and disappeared.

It is: https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=9e5f94bc-e8a4-4e73-b8be-63364c29d753&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Flocalhost&scope=https%3A%2F%2Foutlook.office365.com%2FIMAP.AccessAsUser.All+https%3A%2F%2Foutlook.office365.com%2FPOP.AccessAsUser.All+https%3A%2F%2Foutlook.office365.com%2FSMTP.Send+offline_access&login_hint=redacted@hotmail.com

I had no opportunity to do what worked on the windows 11 machine just last night. I cannot check mail on hotmail on this windows 10 pc. I took all the updates available to Thunderbird and firefox. TB is 115.11.1

I'm stopped. Why would it work on one pc and not another? Oauth2 on the windows 11 asked for authenticator. On the windows 10 it never asks.

Here is a very strange problem: 1. all my notifications about interac are attributed to only one person: INTERAC e-Transfer: A money transfer from X has been automatically deposited. Under correspondents I have Y, no matter what X is. 2. When I do a global search for INTERAC, all notifications show up, but attributed to Z, different from X and Y. Further, Z only sent me an interac transfer once, maybe 10 years ago. Indeed, if I global search for Z, none of the interac notifications show up. 3. this is ONLY on Thunderbird, not at the server.

Any ideas?

I have Thunderbird 115.11.1 running on a Mac Mini M2 Sonoma 14.5.

I use a Kensington USB PC Keyboard which is set to "British-PC" in the Mac Keyboard settings to give the correct layout.

If Thunderbird is the first app I launch after I log in (the password entry at this stage works fine) it seems to stop the keyboard from being recognised by the Mac until I go into another app (Google or Text Edit for instance) which then seems to make the Keyboard visible again.

Are there any settings in Thunderbird that might clash with the system keyboard settings and cause this?

If I use other apps before launching Thunderbird it works as normal, it seems to happen if Thunderbird is launched first.

Thanks for any help.

Hi, All. I store older emails in subfolders by year within Local Folders, and I've specified that Thunderbird store Local Folders on a toggleable remote drive. The idea is that I will just toggle that remote drive on when I need to access Local Folders messages.

Thankfully, when I start Thunderbird with the remote drive off, Local Folders appears without any references to inbox or sent folders (since it can't find the drive), and also thankfully it doesn't throw any "Can't find drive x" error messages. When Thunderbird is open, and I turn the drive on, however, it does not display the remote Local Folders content.

Other than completely closing and reopening Thunderbird, is there a way to have it more easily load the Local Folders content when the drive is turned on - either automatically or manually?

Thank you

I can't do batch delete or move from the Inbox. It will only do one file at a time, despite the fact that several are highlighted.

It is also repeatedly trying to download a few thousand files to the Inbox. It gets to the number of files, then hangs, then starts to do it again (except each time it's fewer files to download). I don't know if the two problems are related.

I have had the same filters and folders for years. Now pretty much everything is not filtered when messages arrive, and when I do a manual "Run Filters on Folder" I get this message about many, maybe all, of my filters "The folder 'Newsletters' could not be found, so filter(s) associated with this folder will be disabled. Verify that the folder exists, and that filters point to a valid destination folder."

"Applying filter From is: dailybusinessreview@alm.com failed. Would you like to continue applying filters?"

When I try redoing the filter, filter dialog says it can't find the folder. I tried repairing the folder, no good.

Junk filters after years of learning, aren't working either.

Now what? TIA.

"move" filter copies but does not remove from inbox

i am using TB 115.10.1 (64-bit) on Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS expected behavior:

 the msg should be moved to the junk folder on Local Folders, marked as junk and NOT placed  in the Inbox

actual behavior:

 the msg is usually  (but not always) copied to the folder "junk" on "Local Folders" and a copy is left in the Inbox

i have many other filters like this, most always work, some occasionally do not. this particular filter has approx 30 such rules each with different matching content, some with domain names, some with portions of IP address. furthermore, other filter rules of similar nature mostly work but occasionally do not.

i am using a customized header, "Received:"

the filter (named "received by #10" :

 apply filter when: Filter Before Junk Classification
 match any of the following
 Received contains      [128.245.         # should match all 128.245.x.x hosts
 perform these actions:
   Move Message to   junk on Local Folders
   Set Junk Status to   junk
   Stop Filter Execution

one of the "Received:" headers contains:

 Received: from mta.s.alivebusinessplan.com ([128.245.246.45]) by mx.mail.com...

filter log content:

 [6/2/24, 17:04:06 GMT-4] Applied filter "received by #10" to message from

 "Mark White (ABP)" <send@s.alivebusinessplan.com> - 66,000% upside on tiny

 biotech at 6/2/24, 17:04:04 GMT-4 execution stopped

questions: 1. why this behavior? what'd i do wrong? 2. is there a limit on the number of filters? 3. is there a limit on the number of rules per filter?

1 Yesterday I moved many MB of emails from Outlook to Thunderbird, now Tbird login to Outlook fails; password that works in browsers seems not to be accepted.

I suspect the drastically shrunk-in-size folders need compacting (which I was going to do today) but can not get to Tbird establishing a relationship to Hotmail (now owned by Outlook). I kept expecting Tbird to tell me it was compacting the whole Outlook Inbox, but it never did.

I tried clearing the cache as suggested. Ran troubleshooting but it merely displayed settings but no explanation.

Hotmail was my first email account (1995 or so), but Microsoft having bought it and it therefore now being subject to whatever inconsistencies they have introduced in the past year or so, I did what I did last night was the first step to moving emails off of their Outlook server onto my hard drive in advance of closing that account. Thunderbird seemed like the mos efficient way to keep emails while emptying their folders in Outlook.

2 If/When I get it back, I would appreciate advice on how to avoid this happening again.

Thank you.

Kia Ora, my Gmail account has stopped downloading to Thunderbird.

I hadn't changed any settings before this happened. Have looked for solutions online, the one I saw here suggested changing the saved password in Thunderbird, which I have done, changing three gmail listings to my current gmail password.

The fix here also suggested deleting the current account, but I can't find that either.

Please advise.

Thanks Mark
