Форум поддержки Thunderbird

I am all of a sudden not receiving emails from group lists I previously have been a part of and my email is in the distribution list. This just started to happen.

Any suggestions? Not very technical here...

I'm new to PC's. I have very basic knowledge of how to use an i-pad. A month ago I got myself a new MacBook. I installed Thunderbird, no problems. My old mail showed up, new mail came in. I installed GNupg.

Following FSF's excellent tutorial I set up Thunderbird with encryption, all good. Now I'm at the point where I 'should try it out' by sending 'Edward' my public key. This worked as I immediately got an encrypted e-mail from 'Edward' in my Apple inbox. However, on Thunderbird I was left hanging with a constantly spinning disc which I presumed meant Thunderbird was trying to retrieve said e-mail. This did not resolve.

After clicking here and there on Thunderbird's interface, I ended up at the account set up screen being prompted for my e-mail address and password. Three weeks had passed and I couldn't remember my password, nor find a note of it. I only have access to account set up and homepage. On homepage I looked through the 'hamburger' menu but I can't find anything that helps. So, I'm locked out of Thunderbird mail.

Any help would be appreciated on both how to resolve the password issue, and what might have gone wrong in retrieving 'Edwards' mail.

Many thanks, Darren.

Running 91.9.1, W10. At about noon today I stopped receiving all emails from multiple providers. I have done no updates. Selecting any account results in the looping timer. The mail is available at gmail and aol as well as on my iphone. I've restarted Thunderbird to no avail. All network settings look good. I am running windows defender. As stated I have changed nothing on the PC.

To whom it may concern: I use Linux Mint as my primary OS and Thunderbird as my primary email client. I am going back to graduate school and the university email address uses two factor authentication. I can't seem to add my university email to Thunderbird because it won't accept two factor authentication. Did I miss a step or an add on?

Best, Jennifer

How do I change the font size in Thunderbird? I am talking about the font size for everything. The titles, the menu titles, the messages. Everything is too small. Is there a way to see what has changed from default font settings or a way to reset back to default font sizes? Thank you

Hello,

I sometimes receive large file attachment while using Thunderbird. My current version is 91.9.1. When I try to save the attachment to local computer, it saves the file as 1KB file size with no error messages or anything. I did not have this problem in the past with older Thunderbird version.

Does this problem happens only in the newer version? I was able to download the same attachment using gmail. I hope that I do not have to go through this every time I get a large file attachment.

Thank you.

Hi,

Couldn't find this in Preferences or Settings: How do I forward emails so that all the details of the message to be forwarded are NOT automatically there? I mean the message itself can of course be there, but I don't want a two meters long table with info such as the details below:

Return-Path: Delivered-To: Received: Authentication-Results: Received: ARC-Seal: ARC-Message-Signature: ARC-Authentication-Results: Received: Received: From: To: Subject: Thread-Topic: Thread-Index: Date: Message-ID: References: In-Reply-To: Accept-Language: etc. etc. etc.

My Thunderbird version is 91.9.1. Many thanks in advance! Laura

Hi Mozilla Community I have attached a large-ish file 19.7 mb (a video) to an email. Pressed send and an alert comes up telling me I should use file share because ... and this is my issue .... the email is (now) 27 mb in size. I have updated Thunderbird, I'm using Imap and the TB version is 91.9.1 My computer is a two year old HP X360 laptop running Win10. I'm also using Bitdefender Total Security. I have tried several times with blank emails (no words) and a video attachment and some with just a few words and the attachment and also with other size attachments. Same result. This also happened with a 33mb pdf attachment, the alert saying the email size is 43mb I don't know where this extra 7mb or 10mb is coming from unless the alert calculation is wrong. Surely sending a blank email doesn't require this much data. I'm interested in others views and ideas. regards David

I made a huge mistake, I was trying to make Thunderbird view larger, now it's much to large to be functional or to make changes or go back to original settings. Here's what happened.

I went into "advanced settings" and changed layout.css.dev.Pixels.Per.Px the size is to large and now I can not view or make changes to Thunderbird. I tried deleting Thunderbird and re-installing it but no luck, the re-install has same large scale issue.

Recently upgraded Thunderbird from version 61(?) to version 91.0.1. Could not find my address book. Found instructions on how to import address books. Successfully imported contacts. However, they were added to "abook" address book; not "Personal Address Book" (PAB). Tried to move to PAB; would not move. Tried to copy and paste each list to PAB; could not do it. Screenshot of top left part of address book shown (names partially obscured due to privacy).

How do I move all these contact lists from "abook" to the PAB?

Hello,

The list of messages contained in a folder display the date as month/day/year which is not convenient for me. How can I change that ?

I tried to use LC_TIME but it's not working...

thanks for your help
