In version 102.10.1 I can change the font size of the various Thunderbird panes independently. I've used the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx variable in the Config Editor to get the menu, folder index, headings, and other fixed parts of the UI to a reasonable size, but the message pane, reply quote, and other parts of the displayed text are way too large. I've tried to use the font size controls in Settings to adjust them, but with little luck.

So, what I would like to see is a concise table showing each font size parameter and exactly which panes and text it applies to. Or, I would like to see written instructions for making the font size the same for all text appearing in Thunderbird, anywhere in Thunderbird.

Or any other answer that is equivalent to these to help me achieve the same font size throughout Thunderbird.

Note: while I can see that some text is too large, I have not verified that a recipient would see text that is too large, since I'm not certain how to test for this, or how to text for both plain text and formatted text. I prefer to send plain text and receive formatted text, if that is relevant.

Hi! I have a lot of IMAP mail account and want to store all relevant mails in an lokal account stored on an local folder. So I created an new local account and selected in the account settings at the option Message Store Type "File per folder (mbox) to store each folder in an separate folder an the local file system.

The Account Name: RS_Mailablage_Zentral Local Directory .....\RS-Mailablage_Zentral

Now I want to move/copy some mails from the IMAP-account to the new local account in an new created folder. But it doesn´t work either by drag & drop nor by using the the option "Move to" in the Message-menu. It doesn´t work in the troubleshoot mode.

In the local directory I found all the created folders from TB as directory foldername, as directory foldername.sbd and as file foldername.msf. You can find some screenshots at the uploaded pictures.

Please can you help me to find a solution.

I use TB version 91.13.0 (64-bit) on Windows 10 Home version 21H2

I changed the email login for my primary account, thinking thunderbird would still show the years of saved messages in folders for the original account. They have gone away, but WHERE TO?

Hello everyone, I just installed Thunderbird Beta (114.0b6 - 64 bit) out of curiosity.

When I import RSS Feed, all icons representing folders are gone unlike on Thunderbird Stable version.

Although Feed Subscription pop up window still show icon for each feed folder.

Is this normal on Thunderbird Beta?

Hello! How can I highlight and view my multiple inboxes at the same time? I am coming over from Apple Mail, and I have multiple email accounts; Personal, personal work, bills and utilities, junk mail, etc. In Apple Mail, I would hold command or shift, and could highlight a couple of email inbox accounts and see all the emails together. I can not seem to find the key combination in Thunderbird. I would love to ditch Apple's eco system, but that one feature I'm still puzzled with on how to do it. The individual email accounts are setup in Thunderbird, that part is good. Just can't view them at the same time. Thank you so very much!

Keeping got massage: The folder 'Inbox on parkerlin@hochien.com' could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space, and that you have write privileges to the file system, then try again.

Have clean up all In box mail and compacted it, but still has same problem .

Been using ThunderBird for many years to access my ATT email account ( [edited] @pacbell.net), but for the last three days it won't allow ThunderBird to access it and download emails. Have reloaded T-Bird, Changed passwords,, etc. but no good. Called ATT twice and they say since I can download from ATT sites it's T-Bird that's the problem....why after this many years???

Hi

Why does Thunderbird want all my personal information.......??

I'd be MORE THAN happy to make a donation to support you guys, but I am NOT happy about all the info I have to provide - and frankly I'm bot going to be bullied into giving info I don't want to. I donate to Wikipedia and they don't ask such intrusive questions - so why do you? You say that less than 2% of TB users donate - this PROBABLY the reason why they don't...!

And the fact that there is no direct link to ask somebody ask question about this subject, is really frustrating.

Thanks

I can't control the FONT SIZE of the incoming emails with the new version of T'bird. Hate it!! It's ugly. Looks crowded and, as I said I can't set it so the incoming fonts are a readable size. OR the font size in the individual mail boxes... This lack of control makes it next to useless for me. I'm in my 70s and really do need the larger font sizes.

Error message: "Sending of the message failed. The Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.frontier.com does not support the selected authentication method. Please change the 'Authentication method' in 'Account Settings | Outgoing Server (SMTP)'." Can you help? Was on the phone with Frontier for an hour - they say incoming settings are correct (no problem receiving emails), as well as outgoing. We tested sending an outgoing message from their webmail server, which was successful. Thanks, dbleagle

after a recent upgrade (91.10.1) Thunderbird no longer has the question about remote content on the email view page. The one with options like show all remote from _ or show only remote content from _. Stilll has the exception section in Settings. Emails show embedded content on webmail. What gives?

Hi: I use Thunderbird 38.7.2 on a MacBook Pro with MacOS 10.11.6. Thunderbird tells me that it is up to date, and that I am on the release update channel.

As of today, 9 June 2022, Gmail rejects my password, and re-entering it does not help.

I went into Preferences/Account Settings/<account_name>/Server Settings/Security Settings, Options are

    Normal Password
    Encrypted Password
    Kerberos/GSSAPI
    NTLM
    TLS Certificate.

Nothing about OAuth2.

Read that version 38 of Thunderbird is supposed to be OAuth2 compatible, so I'm stuck. As Thunderbird thinks it is up to the latest and greatest, I cannot update it to something newer. And I do not see a way to enable OAuth2.

The answer is probably obvious. just not to me.

I have been using Thunderbird for years to access several @charter.net email addresses, lately administrated at Spectrum, which took over Charter. Everything was working normally until today. I can still receive emails, but when I send, I get an error message asking for a password: "password required for outgoing SMPT server" Manually entering a password in that error message box doesn't help. Spectrum support is not helpful beyond confirming that my email sends and receives normally as long as I access it on their website. Three clues: 1) Spectrum recently announced "new and improved" email. 2) One customer service person described my email addresses as "legacy". 3) My gmail address sends and receives just fine from Thunderbird as usual. Any insights appreciated! Thanks!

I am receiving the following error message when I try to download messages from my Comcast.net account:

The RETR command did not succeed. Error retrieving a message. Mail server mail.comcast.net responded: Message 41395 expunged.

This just started happening yesterday, and I can no longer download any messages from the account. Comcast has no clue why this is happening.

I've been a faithful Thunderbird user since the beginning - and continue to use Thunderbird with our company's Microsoft365 deployment

until Monday of this week -- when suddenly I find that my credentials are being refused.

The symptoms

• XXX: Connected to outlook.office365.com
• nothing in the activity viewer
• no email coming in

I've read and tried all the fixes proposed in the article at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/microsoft-oauth-authentication-and-thunderbird-202 (restarting thunderbird after each step, naturally)

• have authorized Thunderbird to our Microsoft365 tenant
• created and tried registering with a new thunderbird profile
• have set my security settings to 'accept all cookies'
• have used the config editor to remove 'oauth2.issuer' and 'oauth2.scope' values
• I've checked that my account in Microsoft365 has IMAP and Authenticated SMTP enabled

So, since Monday, I've been living in hell, trying to pretend that the Microsoft Outlook app for macOS is useable, but it's practically debilitating to be forced to use that piece of software.

Can somebody please point me to another possible set of steps that I can use to try and diagnose this?

I absolutely hate myself for having to ask for help on this, but I'm at my wit's end...

Hello, I'm migrating from Outlook Express to Thunderbird 102, in Windows 8.1. I'd like to import my Address Book (.wab file) into TB 102. It seems a direct import is not possible (?). I have to convert my .wab file to a .csv file that TB can import. But doing so, I loose all the organization of my old address book (1500 contacts and tens of folders and sub-folders) ! How can I save the organization (folders) of my old address book in TB ? Tks in advance for your answers and solutions.

Is there a way to apply a setting of message list columns to all folders in Thunderbird?

I saw one posting that said you could do it for each account but when I tried that nothing changed. I was able to get it to work with a single folder and it's children.

I'm running Thunderbird 115.2.0 / Windows 10 64bit

I report all spam emails that I receive at my Yahoo email addresses. As it stands, I have to manually check for spam on Yahoo, restore it to the inbox, and then do a separate, manual download to get those messages onto Thunderbird to process and email (my preferred way of doing things). Is there a way/setting that allows Thunderbird to go into the Yahoo spam folder and retrieve those messages as well, in one retrieval operation along with the rest of my mail? Thanks- :)
