Hello

I recently had some trouble with my e-mail that was supposedly remedied by switching from POP to IMAP. However, I think I fucked it up. Please see the picture. (The uppermost account is the POP, the lower the IMAP.)

Somehow many of the messages got duplicated or otherwise messed up in the transfer. (I have confirmed the existence of duplicate e-mails in the IMAP account.)

I think the simplest thing would be to delete both accounts and start over again with a new IMAP account that will just download all the e-mails from the outlook.com IMAP server.

Does this sound right?

I am using Thunderbird version 128.7.Oesr on an iMac running Sequoia 15.3. When trying to update a contact's information I'm finding some contacts allow for Edit Mode and other contacts do not even display the Edit button as an option. I've tried Troubleshooting mode, but have the same issue. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks, Ron

Hi, all of a sudden I can no longer send Emails. I get a long period of hanging after sending then a message saying password not incorrect.

This was going on for a couple hours when it was working(able to send messages);

Then just now just to double check before posting this(see the actual what the actual fail message is saying),

I can now send messages again - but now it doesn't ask me for a password first, where before I needed one. It will just send the Email.

This is very strange behavior going on as I didn't do any restarting of the computer - only closing Thunderbird.(which didn't do anything for a couple trys).

Is it possible there is some background updating going on? Or something else?

Insights are appreciated.

Hello, I was wondering whether anyone on this forum had a similar issue with mine? As of today, Jan 31, 2025, Thunderbird can't access my Gmail accounts, would that be a Thunderbird bug or is it to do with any recent Gmail updates? I did a quick search online and found very old chat that were suggesting the OAuth setting in thunderbird, but mine was already enabled on all Gmail accounts. Thanks

Sequence of too many copies of what I write in the inbox

Dear sirs, I'm Portuguese, I'm in Portugal and the text is a Google Translate translation. I have been using Thunderbird for many years and I am grateful and satisfied with the program but... .... a few months ago I had to reinstall it on my computer and since then an "anomaly" has been happening that I can't solve or find a solution in the help on your website. It's like this.... When I start typing a message, Thundirbird starts a sort of "backup" intermittently presenting a copy of what I'm typing in the inbox at every moment. and on the other hand it doesn't record anything in the drafts folder. Example: If I take, say, 5 minutes to prepare an email, in my inbox I will have ten or more copies of the email I am preparing. I have already reinstalled and searched all your support and I cannot resolve this annoying situation. Can you help? I will be grateful. Rogerio Freire

I keep copies of all messages on my imap server and office PC. I also have a notebook PC and installed Thunderbird to keep copies all messages. I need to free space on the notebook. Can I change the "Synchronize all messages locally regardless of age" setting to "Synchronize the most recent" on the notebook without causing the imap server to delete my older messages?

I moved my work email (sub)folders within Thunderbird after adding a new work email account (Pop3). After that I found that some of the subfolders are missing alltogether and some of them are empty, the emails that were in that folder are not there anymore, and nor in the original folder where it was first located. When showing the size of the folder it shows e.g. 14.7 MB even though it sais "0" messages. It looks like the messages are still there but they are not showing.

And now every time I try to move a message into a subfolder, or delete a message, I am getting an error message about some error writing to some specific folder failing when compacting, and whether there is sufficient disc space.

But there is still 150 GB of free space on the C drive

The I have to shut down Thunderbird and restart it because non of the folders show any messages anymore.

Any idea what is happening here ?

I want a clear, succinct answer on the process of whitelisting an incoming email address. I can find none in the Help threads on this subject. How do I whitelist an email address? I have an incoming email address that I receive emails from daily and it just mysteriously stopped coming to my inbox. I checked with the sender by phone, who said that nothing changed from their end.
