Форум поддержки Thunderbird

I have created a filter to forward and email as soon as the message comes in. I does not do the auto-forwarding but will do if I click Run now.

I had to reinstall TB due to the fact that for years my mail server was Cox who recently decided to get out of email business and transferred all my messages to Yahoo. The transition has not been going smoothly. Image attached.

In the previous version, there was a search box on the toolbar. After the upgrade, it disappeared. How can I restore it?

I tried to customize toolbar but there is no search box in the window of available controls.

Good morning, This morning thunderbird was not responding and allowing new emails to come thro. So i repaired the folder and now it doesn't display the messages in my inbox. Could someone help me with that? If you want to message me privately thats fine too daryl@doubledtrailerparts.com

Hello,

i have a mailserver with a catch all function and give out only customized mail adresses. Think "paypal@domain.com".

That way i know exactly who "lost" my mail address to a spammer.

However when i want to reply, the sending mail address defaults to the one i am logged into.

Is there any possibility to configure Thunderbird, that the sending mail for the reply is equal to the receiving one i am replying to?

Hi there,

I have Thunderbird 115.10.2 (64 bit) on my Macbook Pro running OS High Sierra 10.13.6.

The "Sent" list of folders is missing one of my Email address folders. But further down the folders column, there are folders with lock icons and the 'Sent' folder is visible in Email address in question's folder (photo attached). Similarly, the "Drafts" folder is missing the Email address's drafts folder.

I've tried the following to fix the "Sent" folder problem:

1) Account Settings -> Copies and Folders -> checked "Place a copy in:" -> "Other" -> [correctly selected address here in dropdown menu] -> Sent. Then I quit and restarted TB. Nothing happened, and the folder did not show up in the list.

2) I tried changing the Security Settings from SSL/TLS to STARTTLS, then restarted TB. That did not fix the problem.

I haven't tried fixing the 'Drafts' folder yet, but I hope you are able to help me restore the missing folders.

Thank you in advance.

Hi there! I made a screen-shot just in case I don't explain this well :) In my inboxes this works well on both my emails - the "groups" 'today, yesterday, last 7, last 14 & older' are all expanded all the time. (see image)

This is however not the case in other folders like sent, junk, deleted etc. I need to manually click the name "today/yesterday etc." to expand it. Next time I go to that folder again, they are all 'un-expanded/closed/collapsed' again.

I would like them to be expanded as default all-the-time in every folder I have! Is there a setting for this somewhere that I can set to 'true' or just check a box?

For the past few weeks I have not been able to open attachments (Photos and PDF file) to emails received from a variety of senders. If I use different mail service programs, they work fine! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THUNDERBIRD????????

Hello, I have Webmail by Godday. I have been using Thunderbird for many years to connect to my accounts without issue. Past couple days I get an error message saying it can't connect to the server. Godaddy says they haven't changed anything. I can log in on Webmail but not with Thunderbird. Thunderbird brings up my mail from before it couldn't log in so I have all my stuff I have saved but I can't get new mail or send mail. I deleted Cache, restarted and all that... Disabled add-ons in trouble shooting mode. Here is what I got. Much appreciated

unable to send email. error messages is Sending of the message failed. The message was not sent due to exceeding the allowed number of recipients. The server responded: STARTTLS is required to send mail [MW4PR03CA0086.namprd03.prod.outlook.com 2024-05-13T23:07:11.907Z 08DC72A03191847E].

I notice this subject has been mentioned prior, but I cannot find a resolve. Been using Thunderbird for a long time without issues, but last week it stopped sending and receiving emails through the Skymesh internet provider. Still sends & receives Hotmail/Gmail/Yahoo, but will not connect to any Skymesh accounts. Have reinstalled/updated, but no change. SMTP timeout and if I change settings I get the 10060 error. Could not even connect to their Webmail page either. If I turn VPN on, then I can access their Webmail page. Rang Skymesh, they poked around and said it was all this end and with Thunderbird. Seems an IP number change via VPN with Opera resolved the Webmail page access, but I cannot do that thru Thunderbird. Running Win 7. Anyone ??

My email was converted from Cox to Yahoo by Yahoo on a system wide conversion on April 27th. In the transition I lost all the emails in my Thunderbird inbox from 4/12 back to the first of the year. I also lost everything in my draft folder.

Carbonite did a restore of the default file (that was dated 4/8) by couldn't get these back. Need to get everything that was in the inbox and draft file on 4/26 (or sometime prior) What can I do?

The same happens in troubleshoot mode. I also tried reinstalling an older version but the same thing happens. Help me figure out what's wrong so I can read emails. :(

I am trying to add a secondary Comcast email account to T-Bird. The primary account was added OK. This is a sub account of the top one.

Note, I have 2 other computers and I was able to add this sub account easily, but that was some years ago.

When I go through the motions of adding my email address and password, when I click "Done" a window pops up with the massage "Secure Connection Failed" The error code is PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR.

When setting up the primary account, the little window asked me my password then asked if it was OK for T-Bird to access the account. This was as normal like all the Gmail ones I did.

But it seems this sub account cannot be added.

Any Ideas?

Thanks, Mark.

My Thunderbird 115.10.2 (64 bit) is lately running very slowly. Message content takes forever to show. Sometimes don't show at all. Sent messages take 20s to save.

I was thinking that my files were simply too large, so I erase everything before 2022-01-01. Where we are now:

  Inbox            13,662 messages 3.0 gb
  All Mail         22,722 messages 5.8 gb
  Sent mail       5,175 messages  1.2 gb
  Important    13,093 messages  3.1 gb
  Other             4,700 messages (approx)

Questions: 1. Can I delete the "Important" messages, thereby perhaps freeing up 3.1 gb? In which case how do I do that?

2. Does this look like too many messages for TB? It's two and a half years worth. Like to keep it, but not at the expense of making the system so slow.

I have removed the databases twice and started with a new instance of TB, which is where we are now.

Thanks for any suggestions!
