Title. Thunderbird is a really cool client but it's pretty slow. I blame that on the thousands upon thousands of emails that my hotmail and gmail each hold. I don't necessarily want to delete these emails, but I have seldom a reason to have any email older than 2 months in my thunderbird client slowing and crashing the program whenever I want to combine inboxes.

To this end I went to "Synchronization & Storage" and told it to "Synchronize the most recent 2 months" but it didn't delete the huge cluster of older emails. The next option is to tell TB to delete these emails in the same menu but as I understand it that would also delete them in the server, which I don't want to do for posteriority.

What do I do?

Thunderbird occasionally breaks a reply-to html stream resulting in html code being displayed to the recipient

Is this exclusively an effect of my cutting text in a reply-to email for brevity of my reply ? e.g. >On 24/2/2024 8:41 am, Robin and Adrian [...] wrote: > … (читать ещё)

I'm happy to try to replicate it if someone can offer suggestions.

[ using Thunderbird for Mac 115.8.0 (64-bit) but the issue is not new ]

many thanks for your support / suggestions

Short background: My account is an aol and my address is xx@aol.com. When I send an email it arrives at the recipients inbox as "from xx@aol.com" - when they reply it is to "xx@aol.com"

I have an email which is x@y.co.uk - this is good because it is in the format "<myname>@<mysurname>.co.uk" which is easy to remember. Any email to this address goes to my aol - so far so good.

My Problem: When I send an email on Thunderbird - it arrives as xx@aol.com; and someone replies it shows as xx@aol.com. What I would like to do is show it arriving as "<myname>@<mysurname>.co.uk" and with a reply-to as "<myname>@<mysurname>.co.uk". Please is this possible, if so what can I do. Finally, more important is the reply to address. If I give someone my "<myname>@<mysurname>.co.uk" email address, I would like at least for them to be able to reply to that address.

Thank you all for any assistance you can give,

Jay

I sent you a note on Feb22nd explaining that I am having problems sending emails,incoming no problems.I am still encountering the same problems to a certain extent.You did send me a reply,however I have to admit that due to my lack of knowledge I failed to understand.This morning I tried to send a "test" message to a friend.It failed with the message "the message could not be sent because the connection to Outgoing server(SMTP-mail.outlook.com) timed out. However I saved the message to my drafts folder pressed Send and the message went to my friend.Following this I repeated the process with another test,that also was sent. I would appreciate greatly any advice or help you can offer me

Thunderbird ver115.8.0, Win11, 64bit Ten or so email accounts running on TB with a mix of pop3 and imap. When starting TB, it usually hangs and the only way out is to close using the X in top right. This is followed by the application wanting to report the problem to Windoze etc. Once I have canned out of this and restarted TB, everything goes well. I have default theme, no extensions or add-ons running. Cache is set to clear on shutdown. I recently deleted all .msf files. The status bar always shows one particular imap account during the hang (hang will continue until TB restarted) - that account is the first account listed in the mailbox tree in LH panel.

I have been getting constant messages when I try to use Thunderbird about Thunderbird being unable to connect, go to Advanced and lower number. It's at 1. Still get message. Now I can't see my Inbox mail. I've uninstalled and reinstalled and the situation just gets worse. I am so flummoxed I don't know what to do. I'm a user not a programmer. How do I just start over or should I just realize that Thunderbird is not an email program I can use and go back to my ISP's Zimbra webmail?

I have been dealing with amazon.com for many years with successful fulfillment of my orders. But, I never get any emails of acknowledgement or delivery. Recently they added a verification code which they send via email, which I do not get, and so I am forever locked out of the site. What can I do to get their transmissions ?
