Форум поддержки Thunderbird

Good Day,

For the last few weeks, when using Thunderbird on Windows and writing a draft email, when clicking on the button to create a link, the draft email window freezes. This also happens if I use the menu bar Insert -> Links...

All other Thunderbird windows remain functioning, and I can effectively continue working, but the frozen draft window will remain on screen until closed through Task Manager.

This only happens when creating a Link, not inserting other objects, like an Image. This problem also does not happen with Thunderbird on Ubuntu.

I am running version 115.10.1.

Thanks in advance for any tips that could be of help.

Using Thunderbird on Linux I cannot delete any local folders, when I try to delete them I get more copies of the folders on reopening Thunderbird, after the system says it is "not responding" and I close it down. I have tried several times and now have multiple copies of the local folders I've tried to delete.

I need to set up several gmail accounts in Thunderbird. The accounts exist; I can see email by going to gmail's webmail for them. I'm running Thunderbird 115.10.1 on Windows 11.

I choose Tools > Account Settings > Add Mail Account then provide the name, email address, password, then TB validates the credentials with gmail's systems. I get a green light message saying that gmail found the entries. I then provide the appropriate POP3 server name and port address and the appropriate SMTP server name and port address and confirm security settings - all of which were verified and carefully edited when entered. TB then sends the information to google and after an very long delay returns a message saying the attempt failed, probably due to incorrect password or settings. All of the information and settings - including the password which was copied and pasted AND the same one used to log in to gmail webmail - are correct.

Obviously, I'm doing something wrong but don't know what. The error message is so generic as to be unhelpful.

Can anyone help me discover the problem?
