The addons website for Thunderbird appears to be down with a 502 bad gateway error.

Thank you for your time.

Not sure if this is the right category but I am using Linux and Thunderbird 128

I am trying to sync my icloud calendar, so have gone to add a new calendar. Chose network and put in my icloud email and password but it just keeps saying credentials aren't accepted even though they are correct.

Am I doing it correctly or is there something else I need to do?

Thank you

How do I change the scroll bar width in Thunderbird? I can change the width in W11, but it has no effect in Thunderbird. I am using Thunderbird version 128.8.1esr 64 bit.

Thank you

I used Edge as my default browser. No issues. Then, Microsoft, in their infinite wisdom started asking for verification everytime I logged into a site. So, I deleted it and changed to Chrome. I set Chrome as my default browser.

But T'Bird still wants to open links to Edge, aka Microsoaft, even though I have completely wiped Edge off of my PC.

According to help, T'bird should recognize my default browser and use that. It isn't. I went into General, but there is NO section labeled 'Default Browser' . A search on 'Default Browser' yields zero results.

I am at a loss.

Thx

I've had this problem for about a month now. The last few thunderbird updates have been performing very slow on my system. I frequently get the 'wait or force quit' dialog popups when trying to use thunderbird. When viewing emails with HTML content, it often has long pauses where nothing happens and the UI is unresponsible.

I do have multiple email accounts, a lot of email (multiple folders with 20K+), and irc open. CPU and memory utilization are fairly low on the PC. It's a desktop with a 11900k + 32GB RAM + nvme m.2 pcie gen 3 ssd + intel arc a750.

I'm noticing issues on wired (via powerline) or wireless (802.11ax)

Windows 10 thunderbird 91.13.1 (I know ... out of date, but I tried a newer version last year and hated it.) My special address book sub categories don't work as they used to. I used to be able to right click on one of them and I got a choice to add all the entries in to a BCC field. This was great for forwarding things to a list of people with a common interest, but without sharing their addresses with all of the other recipients. It just quit doing this. If there is no easy solution, I guess I'll have to man up and upgrade! Many thanks for your volunteer work! Jack

I tried to send an email and got a message saying "The message could not be sent because connections to Outgoing server (SMTP) pop3.gmail,com failed. The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections. Please verify your Outgoing server(SMTP) are correct and try again". I checked and they seem right but I cannot even send an email from one account to the other. The same message appears and I don't believe anything has been changed, aside from adding another address, that I know of.

Is there some way that I can nullify the format changes in the v128.x message list, compared to v115.x, so that my UserChrome.css tweaks that are functioning well in v115.x are not broken? Perhaps there are some new Config flags that might be set? I hate to have to redo a bunch of carefully calibrated work.

Sample of v115.15.0 message list included; I uninstalled v128, so I can't easily show a sample of that.

I was using Thunderbird for Windows 10 normally for many months. Recently, whenever I launch the app it immediately freezes, and I have to force quit the application. Reinstalling the app does not fix the issue. I haven't tried deleting my profiles yet, but I would like to avoid that if possible.

Ever since I upgraded to 115.10.1 (from a much earlier version, which worked well), Thunderbird is randomly very slow.

First off, at opening time, it takes ages (over a minute) to download some incoming (small) messages - while this was definitely not the case with the previous version I was running. Sometimes, it hangs (for anywhere from 15 to 60 seconds) while I am typing a message.

Also, e.g. today, I tried to send an email (250 KB or so): it just kept on saying "sending". When I clicked (after a few minutes) to stop the sending, the window closed without further ado and I couldn't find the message anywhere (not in the Drafts, not in the Sent). I did it again, it then hung on copying the message to the "sent" folder. When it finally said it failed, and asked if I wanted to have it copied to a local folder, I clicked "yes". Upon checking, it had stored it in the "sent" messages, not locally...

I am running Windows 10 Pro, with ample memory and disk space, and a fiber optics connection. The CPU is not overloaded at all nor any other ressource.

It is becoming increasingly annoying.

I recently updated to Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS and Thunderbird also updated (?) and now seems to be loaded under /snap. I have therefore lost connections to my signatures and it seems slower. What do I need to do?

I have Thunderbird up and running on one of my Oracle Linux Virtual Machines.

I enabled the FiltaQuilla extension, because I want to save message attachments automatically to a local filesystem, and then run a backend script against those saved attachments.

Everything appears to be configured correctly.

The email filter is working sporadically. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. It is not consistent.

It does not seem to work immediately, and it does not seem to work when I try to manually run it.

But, if I leave my computer for a little while and come back, the saved files will magically appear, "somehow", but only sporadically.

Even though the filters appear to be enabled, they are not being kicked off when the new messages arrive.

I currently have 3 options in place, in the "Filter Rules" window:

"Manually Run", "Getting New Mail: Filter before Junk Classification" and "Periodically, every 10 minutes".

I wish there was an option to "Run with each new message received".

I set a "Subject Contains" filter, and that is my only filter.

Then I tried both "Detach Attachments To" and "Save Attachments To", but neither of them seems to be working properly.

For a brief few minutes, I attempted to combine "Move message to folder", but it moves the message immediately, before the first filter has a chance to save it to the local filesystem.

When you have different actions in mind, there MUST be a way to prioritize each action, so that the first option MUST complete successfully, before attempting to complete the second, and subsequent actions.

In my case, I need to save the attachments to the local machine, before removing or moving the message.

So, if action number one completes successfully, it goes on to complete the second action.

If action number one fails, it stops all processing of future steps, so that the failure can be debugged.

I really need a solution to the saving of attachments to local filesystems (This is in Linux).

I have tried everything I know but I need a workaround to delete an email message with an excessively large attachment that freezes my Thurderbird program totally.

Running Thunderbird 115.14.0 on an old MacBook Air (OS 10.13.6 High Sierra). Thunderbird functioned perfectly well in the morning. Shut down Mac to go to a meeting. Upon restart, Thunderbird cannot be re-opened. Error message in Finder is "The application 'Thunderbird; can't be opened." Not sure what's happening and would really appreciate help.

My Thunderbird recently updated itself to 128.2.0esr (32-bit). Right after that, my Gmail account in Thunderbird started a process of downloading messages into the Important Mail folder or All Mail and other folders. Thousands of them. It creeps along pausing occasionally, freezing my mail app, and can't do anything until it does whatever, then continues for a minute or two normally before freezing up again. It's possible most of the time to do something while it's downloading-- it halts then catches up and halts again in only a few seconds. Almost impossible to compose a message or read messages while it's downloading. Sometimes, if you click on something when it halts, it says "Thunderbird not responding" turns faded and crashes or have to go into task manager and end the process to get out of it. Right now, my mail is downloading with a total Important Mail quantity of (it reports now) 5787 messages. That quantity changes each time. I've left the mailer open just sitting there hoping it might finish whatever it needs to do, and then I can go about business without the freezing. But then it starts downloading mail again. Now it's switched over and doing it in All Mail-- 20,000 of those, and flipping between Sent Mail and then back to Important... The only workaround I've found is when it starts that activity, close the mailer and reopen it and then I have at least a few minutes to read or compose mail before it starts up and bollixes activity, and I have to close down and reopen to continue. I can find NO setting to adjust or turn this "feature" off. I have to go use the actual Gmail in a browser, which I hate, to get anything done. I've used Thunderbird since it first came out, even back to when it was Netscape mail before going independent as Mozilla and prefer to use it but can't with this downloading madness.
