Thunderbird: форум сообщества

Using Tbird 115 (or later) can gmail contacts be the listing used in Tbird and be in synch when changes are made in the gmail contacts list. There appear to be various methods and I seek the best and simplest. Thanks

Hello, I have a problem with subfolders. I created a few on my account, but they are not visible. When I go to the email application on my phone (samsung email), they are visible. please help me with this problem

I am running version 128.1.1esr (64-bit) on Windows 11.

A few weeks ago one of my email accounts stopped working so after attempts to find and fix the problem I resorted to deleting and recreating the account in Thunderbird.

The account is a hotmail.co.uk account and the server type is "POP Mail Server".

I noticed that there were fewer folders under the account (Inbox, Drafts, Sent and Trash). There may also have been a Junk folder. I thought that perhaps Thunderbird would create any additional folders as and when messages appeared in them, but I have now discovered that I have messages in the Spam folder on the server but they do not appear in Thunderbird.

Please can someone tell me what I have done wrong and how can I fix it.

Many thanks.

I have my Thunderbird set up to receive mail from four different email addresses plus I have local folders. Is there some way of changing the order of the mailboxes? I have tried dragging them with no success.

I have Thunderbird installed [via Flatpak](https://flathub.org/apps/org.mozilla.Thunderbird) and suddenly it's not recognizing the profile that contains the email accounts. When launching it is showing the welcome wizard instead.

The file system contains quite a few profiles though:

``` $ cd ~/.var/app/org.mozilla.Thunderbird/cache/thunderbird $ du -h --max-depth=1 6.8M ./i58nuv2e.default-release-1 813M ./r77u2ylw.default 6.7M ./w92uxxz8.default-release 0 ./jncleef4.default 6.5M ./fbs6wcvl.default-release 0 ./lz1kt9ot.default 6.9M ./tv1kaebo.default-release 0 ./7f6s4la8.default 839M . ```

but `about:profiles` shows only `tv1kaebo.default-release` and `7f6s4la8.default`.

I'm pretty sure that I didn't do anything but updating the Flatpak and I definitely didn't change any Thunderbird settings or anything in its data directories.

The correct profile is `r77u2ylw.default` (its directory size is 813M while the others are less than 7M).

Hence I'd like to know how can I make Thunderbird use that profile and avoid that issue happening again?

• • PS:** And what's the best way of cleaning up profiles, since I only need one profile anyway? The Thunderbird UI doesn't even recognise all of them, so would be deleting them sufficient?

Hi,

I'd like to try to configure an Exchange (Office 365) account in Thunderbird Beta, and it doesn't work for me. I use the autodiscover and: 1. Thunderbird tells me that it can recover the connection settings, okay 2. It offers me IMAP, POP and Exchange/Office365. If I select the last one, it says that the server doesn't allow open protocols and that I must install/pay the Owl extension. 3. If I select "configure manually" with Exchange protocol, an error appears: "Component returned failure code: 0x80040111 (NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE) [nsiMsgAccountManager.createIncomingServer]

Thx

Thunderbird updated today to 128.2.3esr and suddenly I have to log in to my Google account, which doesn't work: I get an 404 error when I try to set up my account (which has been working flawlessly for months). I'm on Windows 11.

Hello!

Everytime I open Thunderbird it asks me to authenticate an old mail account that 1) has already been deleted and 2) isn't visible anywhere within Thunderbird - so I since I don't even see the old account anymore, I can't delete it and don't know what to do. I have deleted the SMTP server that was related to the deleted mail account. I also uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird - the message still shows up.

I hope someone will be able to help me. :) Thank you!

I'm down to the last few days before Outlook will not be usable on Thunderbird unless I jump through some hoops.

I've seen posts about deleting the Outlook account, then reinstalling it in Thunderbird and Thunderbird will create the necessary security steps to make it usable again. This seems to be the method that works rather than just going into the settings and changing the necessary security settings.

MY QUESTION IS: I have lots of emails (sent and received from past months and years) that I keep in folders within Thunderbird.

How can I keep those folders/emails in the format I have if it's necessary to delete the account on Thunderbird then reestablish it? My understanding is that deleting it in Thunderbird will also delete all local folders and email saved within that account.

Thanks B

With Outlook requiring the new sign-in technology, I deleted an account and attempted to re-establish it in Thunderbird. After naming the account and doing the password, said it "Found the configuration...."

Selected IMAP then clicked DONE. Got the attached message. I tried using Firefox browser which was my default. Then I made Chrome the default.

Same message. "We can't sign you in, Java-script is required"

Need some help as to where to go from here.

Thanks B

Unable to sign into outlook.com using either normal password or OAuth2. This has been going on for weeks, but would eventually connect. Now it was been two days since last connection. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Glen

I just reviewed the annual report and I'm all smiles. Great Job!

One thing I noted in the report is the cost of Donation Processing Fees. I'm Canadian and always use Paypal for my donations, but wonder if it would be of more benefit to you if I used an alternative.

Is there another service or credit card that would be a lower cost to you?

I currently use Thunderbird 128.3.1esr (32-bit). I monitor 5 different gmail based accounts from it. The primary issue is that I have removed one account from the "settings : Account Actions " dropdown several times and every time I reboot my windows box the old account returns. A lesser issue but still a distractor is that my Message View Layout returns to the default on the same regular reboot. How can I permanently delete the account??? and if it's a twofer, have my message view choice remain?? Thanks. Bob.

I have a new computer and I want to transfer everything in Thunderbird on my old computer to my new one. I did an export, transferred the zip file to the new computer and imported it. All my email accounts showed up which was great. However when I go to my calendar none of the events are shown. Both computers are running Linux. Aren't calendar events exported too?

I've tried to confirgure my Gmail account to Thunderbird multiple times recently, but not successfully getting it figured out. I'm always given a 400 error message and I can't figure out the root cause. I've updated and redownloaded TB and reset my Gmail password.

I've included screenshots to verify what I've got currently setup in TB and my Gmail settings. Anyone have this problem or have the solution? I have 3 other mail accounts that are not hosted by Google that work fine.

I have 5 Gmail accounts that I have been using in Thunderbird for years. One of them was glitching a lot, so I removed it, then tried to add it back with no luck. I uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird, which automatically populated with my other four accounts, but still can't reinstall the fifth account. When I enter my account and password, it says "Configuration found in Mozilla ISP database" with a green checkmark. Then it takes me to Google, and shows my correct email address. When I hit Next, I get a 400 error message every time. "The server cannot process the error because it is malformed. It should not be retried. That's all we know." Can anyone help?

My live.com accounts are no longer syncing as of 10/01/24. I tried changing the authenication method to 0auth2 as suggested and restarted my computer. Now instead of getting the notice that my password for my live accounts in incorrect, I get a message from thunderbird saying "The IMAP server imap-mail.outlook.com does not support the selected authentication method. How can I fix this? I tried changing my passwords to these 2 accounts and reentereing into thunderbird but to no avail.

Hallo,

mein Gmail-Konto lässt sich nicht mehr mit Thunderbird verknüpfen. Ich habe das Konto bereits gelöscht und neu hinzugefügt. Es ist immer derselbe Fehler. Das Passwort ist nicht mit dem Server-Ausgang (SMTP) abgestimmt.

Im Anhang befinden sich zwei Screenshots, auf denen Sie den angesprochenen Fehler noch einmal erkennen können.

Viele Grüße Christopher
