This button has never worked for me. If I want to manually check for emails, I have to use the down arrow beside it and select one of my two email addresses. Do I need to check a box somewhere in both account settings to tell Thunderbird to use the control?

The email composing window includes Write: in the title (before the actual email title). How can I remove this part from the title?

The space I have on my device is narrow where I can see the titles of the emails being composed and I would like to see only the email title in that location, without the "Write:" portion. Does anyone know how I can achieve this?

Hi,

is there a setting for mail composition that shows a line ending symbol for the email's content? I mean something like the pilcrow (looks like a reversed uppercase P letter) in Microsoft Word.

Or is there an add-on for that?

Thank you.

Your system is a DOG, I had to reset my laptop and when I reinstalled Thunderbird, I didnt know there was box to Check/uncheck about leaving emails on your server, so to dumped all my emails older than 14 days.

I did try the forum to try and find a repair and only got 1 comment from a Matthew ( I think)

Total waste of time!!!!!

I have swapped to Outlook, cost a little but far better for safety.

I would like to hide the "Switch to the calendar tab" and "Switch to the tasks tab" toolbar buttons that appear in the Thunderbird 91 top bar (title bar?).

I've tried the methods suggested for prior Thunderbird versions that employ userChrome.css, and they do not work.

Is it possible to hide these toolbar items?

I can't for the life of me find out how to stop Thunderbird from deleting my emails form Thunderbird and my email server. I use to think it was after 30 days but my oldest email is from May 11th, today is the 26th. So maybe it's a set size limit. My email is through my web hosting provider and it is set to unlimited. When I asked them they said there's a setting on an email client that is deleting my emails. How do I fix this? I have tried to delete the email account and add it again from scratch but that didn't do anything. Many times I need to access older emails from my customers that are just gone.

I know another person mentioned this before but I didn't see a resolved answer, only that he created a new folder to import his old messages to. Which I don't see how to do that but also feel that's just a band-aid type fix. I want my emails to stop being deleted automatically, only if I delete them.

For years when I compose an email, my address book appeared on the left column.

Somehow today it disappeared. How can I get it back to the above location when composing an email?

I have 2 Gmail accounts and each has an 'Awaiting Reply' folder. Is it possible to add 'Awaiting Reply' in Unified folders for my 2 accounts, in the same way that Inbox, Draft, Sent etc are there, so that I can click on Awaiting Reply and see the emails from both accounts. Thank you

Hi, I want to use Windows Task Scheduler to send command line emails via Thunderbird.

I have found only: thunderbird -compose "attachment='C:\first.txt,C:\second.txt'"

This works. But I also want to include email to, subject, text body and send.

I have tried options like Blat. Blat works but not with gmail.com as they block it. So with Thunderbird installed locally I may be able to work around the new gmail restrictions.

Many thanks.

Hi,

I have a Mozilla Thunderbird email client, which has been linked to my Microsoft Outlook account using IMAP for years, and has operated perfectly well for my personal preferences.

At some point overnight (26th / 27th May) this stopped working and I am now presented with the error message "Sending of password for user xxx@xxxxxxx.co.uk did not succeed. Mail server outlook.office365.com responded: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password" when trying to download mail.

This is very strange as I can log in directly to my Outlook account using the same user name and password. No settings were changed by me in either Mozilla or Outlook.

For information, I can still send messages from Thunderbird but not now receive them.

Can anyone help, please?

Many thanks.

I'd like to be able to configure the format of numbered lists, both for a particular list in an email, and as a default template that will apply to all future emails that I compose.

I can find no documentation on how numbered lists are supposed to work. Mine are currently giving me roman numerals at all levels, e.g.

1. Top level

 1.  Next level
   1.  Lower level

I've come across some interesting options, including particularly https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1052897, which I've tried, but it doesn't work for me.

Please help!

Hi Thunderbird,

in my office I am forced to use Outlook and so I am used to the keyboard shortcuts defined in Outlook. One of the often used keyboard shortcuts is CTRL+SHIFT+M to start the writing of a new mail.

In Thunderbird this shortcut seems to be hard-coded to 'Move/Copy message to previous target folder Again' which is basically not a bad function, if someone is used to it. But as a user who loves keyboard shortcuts I am sometimes struggling with this feature as Thunderbird reminds the last folder even over a restart of Thunderbird! So it can be that I haven't used Thunderbird for a week and then want to write a mail and press automatically CTRL+SHIFT+M and then a mail is moved to a folder I cannot remember. This behavior is very annoying!

1. Is there any way to change the keyboard shortcut? 2. If this keyboard shortcut cannot be changed or removed it should only work if a user already has moved a file in the current session of Thunderbird. The memory function over different Thunderbird sessions of this keyboard shortcut is not helpful at all. 3. Is there a way to show the previous target folder in Thunderbird? This would at least reduce the search for unwanted moving of mails.

Waiting and hoping for a reply

Hi,

I have set the task bar badge to display the number of unread emails. Unfortunately, this only works for emails in the inbox. Emails in other folders are collectively ignored.

Doing some research it seems that this has been an issue since this feature was introduced. Would be great to have it addressed. :) Or is there any other way to solve this?

Cheers

As so many others here.... *shake fist at Google* ...

I did the switch to OAUTH2 for both POP and SMTP. I deleted the passwords, dumped the cookie cache, accept cookies from sites (always on 3rd party; keep until I close thunderbird), added an exception for https://accounts.google.com , then closed and started a fresh session of Thunderbird (currently on version 91.9.1 - the latest in my Ubuntu repos).

When I start Thunderbird, it asks for the user/password and then it downloads new messages. Great.

Except every few minutes, it asks me to re-authenticate for /every/ gmail account. Grrr....

Per the below comment, it seems that Thunderbird is supposed to save the password... but it doesn't. I still have passwords for all the non-google accounts, but I dumped all the gmail passwords per the many many instructions I've found. There's also nothing from google in the cookies (however, I've gone to other sites like the Thunderbird addons and those cookies do show up in the list). https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1375538#answer-1501083

I found someone saying that web servers might be a problem, I have no webservers installed on this system and nothing is listening to ports 80 or 443.

How do I get gmail to stop pestering me every few minutes for my user/pass and force Thunderbird to save the OAUTH2 token?

Thanks!

How do I to Change Column Widths in Message List in Thunderbird v100.0.2 (64bit)? I want to Resize my Message List Columns to make viewing my folder of emails to my uses. Some columns with more space and others with less.

Good afternoon -

When I try to send a desktop shortcut or anything else to my Thunderbird Client I see this error message. Tried about 5 fixes on YouTube, none of them worked. How can I get this simple functionality back?

Thunderbird is my default Mail Client. Microsoft Office 2021 is resident, but Outlook is uninstalled.

I'm surprised that this has not been addressed before.

Many thanks for your prompt assistance in helping me resolve this! Keep up the good work.

The font size settings for composing mails (small / medium / large) only apply to HTML emails, but I would like to change the font size for composing plain text emails. Where can I set this?

It would be great to have the option of, by default, having my emails composed as plain text/not HTML (which is my current setting), but when I forward an email, have it use HTML if the email was an HTML email. Currently, whenever I want to just forward an HTML formatted email without it then looking horrid, I have to go into settings, change my preferences so I can compose in HTML, forward the email, then go back to preferences and change it back to using plain text.

Hey, folks! To clear my list of recent folders, I used to simply delete panacea.dat from the profile folder and let Thunderbird rebuild it. But now I see that panacea.dat is no longer there (running 102.0 beta on Windows 10).

Is there a new way to reset/clear that list now that panacea.dat is gone? Thanks for suggestions!
