Форум поддержки Thunderbird

I've been using Thunderbird for years and have never had this problem. Since the upgrade today, after I run Thunderbird once and close it I can no longer start it up again. I have to reboot or use Task Manager to kill it in order to run it. This is on Windows 11. Please help - not an acceptable workaround for long. Optionally, how do I downgrade to previous version? I should know better than allow automatic upgrades.

Adding a couple images below, when it has started successfully it shows as one of the Apps in Task Manager. When I close it, Thunderbird drops into the Background Processes but doesn't end. I have to kill it here in order to start it again.

I am still receiving regular emails from other sources. But for some reason with this particular email or group of emails, they are unable to send to me anymore. I have no idea why. I have attached the message that my client received when they attempted to send.

I used to read my MSN email via Thunderbird. Then one day it told me I had to provide the MSN password to connect. I discovered that I couldn't connect to MSN at all. Had to create a new password for Microsoft, and I know what that is but then they have you do a second thing for the MSN email, and I connect to that but can't see what the password is. How do I find my MSN email password so I can give it to Thunderbird? I've tried various methods, but no luck. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hello. In our company, every employee has an IMAP account, but over time the IMAP profile takes up too much space on the hard drive (100-200GB per user...). What can we do to have more storage space? Can we delete the file? Or will all emails also be deleted from the server?

Thunderbird will no longer save sent emails to my SENT folder. I get an error message when I send an e-mail saying, "Your message was sent but a copy was not placed in our sent folder(Sent) due to network or file access errors. You can retry or save the message locally to Local Folders/Sent-using my email address. Cox Communications is my ISP and they say the problem is not theirs.

I want to support Mozilla but have no need for the complexity of Thunderbird. I find navigating the huge number of options hugely timewasting, eg I inadvertently remove some headers but can find no way of undoing this. Is there a cut down, simplified version I can use?

Last week, sometime, I received ALL the emails, that have come into my "mailbox", from about the time I purchased my latest computer, several years ago. There must be hundreds, if not thousands, of the little critters. All arranged alphabetically, starting with the letter "a". So far, the ONLY solution I've found from "Thunderbird Help", is to 1. Open inbox 2. Select [left click] one of the repeated emails. 3. This high lights the email in BLUE. 4. Select BOTH "CONTROL & A" KEYS at the same time. 5. This highlights the WHOLE PRESENT page of emails in BLUE. 6. The instructions then say to press the "DELETE" key. 7. Question is- IF I PRESS THE "DELETE" key, will that just delete the emails on this page, OR delete EVERY email in my entire "inbox"? The only OTHER remedy I've tried, is to send the unwanted emails, ONE at a time, to the "TRASH" folder, then empty the "TRASH" folder, when I get 10-15 emails in it. That could take a VERY long time. Awaiting your suggestion[s]-Joel Payne P.S. Might this happen again? If so, it may be time to go back to Carrier Pigeons.

I recently archived locally about 10 years worth of emails successfully (the emails were removed from the my ISP's servers and I opted for a yearly format). I can easily find these in Thunderbird but of course they are not on the mail server anymore.

Settings info: I have Message Archives set to "Archives on Local Folder" followed by my email address (I set it up with this name so that I can find the archives specifically for backup by my Sinology server).

However, my Sent folder (shows a paper airplane icon) is missing, although I also downloaded it and thought it would be saving locally.

When I verified my Archive options in TB, I noticed that while I had selected "Yearly archived folders" I did not select "Keep existing folder structure of archived messages". I assume that this is a mistake on my part?

My questions are: Q1. Where are my Sent emails - would they be mixed in with received messages in each yearly archive? Q2. How do I access these sent emails within the TB search window?

Any advice and suggestions would be most appreciated and thank you. C.

I changed my Xfinity password on Xfinity website. Now I get error message on Thunderbird.saying my imap password is wrong. How can I change my imap and outgoing email passwords to match xfinity password.

A: All these problems started after the new email version was installed, in-other-words, when the old version was updated! B: All of my email that was in my account / on my computer seem to be be there as far as I can tell. I can get to them, I can open them and see their contents. C: All is ok up til this point...as mentioned above and no new email has arrived. D: Now, as soon as I click on the "Get Messages" (Icon, looks like a cloud) in the upper left corner, is when I the Yahoo page of some sort pops on the screen, that's it. No mail arrives and I'm stuck with the Yahoo page covering most of the screen. E: I can click click around and try entering my email address but when I click on F: I see that images can be attached, and hope it works. My screen are,1920 x 1080, so I'll try and reduce the size of the images when I attach them. G: (Image A) After I inter my email address the red wording pops up.

    (Image B)   My email address pops up. That's it. Sometimes, If I click around a second page will pop up and

it becomes vicious circle and normally going back to the first page. (Note: A image) [about:blank] ??? Other pages have an address??? H. In these 4 days I have changed, added, deleted, used my Mozilla Reset Key, and this morning, per Mozilla's - Thunderbird's request, created another Reset key. Still no email. I do believe If this Yahoo thing was gone my email might start, just a guess now. H. Will all of the email that has not arrive still be available?? I. Almost forgot to mention. I receive and send my email through Thunderbird, and Yahoo & AT&T. Thanks, Bob Miller And, "Yes" please email or call, anytime day or night. I am getting a few emails on my phone. miller.485@sbcglobal.net

P.S...."Somethings Wrong"  :-( Again, thanks for your help!

With a simple mis-keystroke I deleted ALL but 1 email in my inbox... Oddly though this contained years on emails it only took a few seconds?!

So I immediately went into the profile in the roaming folder for windows 10 and searched for a backed up copy of the inbox... assuming that Thunderbird would do such a thing as I have seen in other email clients.

I found nothing like that. I searched everywhere I could think of for some old inbox file that would contain the emails or at least most of them... NOTHING. I just have never seen a client that didn't make routine backups of the data files.

Am I missing something? Is there a file somewhere?

I recently changed ISP carriers (from Network Solutions to Intermedia). The transfer was slow but everything worked just fine. Then, a few weeks later, I received a notice from "Esquilla" asking me to sign up & pay, which I did not do. Monday morning, my Thunderbird email was frozen. I was able to go to the ISP's online portal to access my email and still can but I prefer Thunderbird which I have been using for decades. Mozilla has always been free other than donations. Is Esquilla a part to Mozilla? Tim J tim@jgia.net

Since the latest version line spacing is cramped and none of the suggested solutions work. I am having to type my emails in word and then paste them into Thunderbird. This is time-consuming and annoying. How do I get readable line spacing?

My Thunderbird has been working properly for about 30 years, but now refuses to open. Message received says 'Authentication failed'. This happens repeatedly (for at least 20-30 times) and appears to relate to my password. It suggests 'Retry' or 'Enter new password'. The 'Retry' repeats as before so I check the Saved Passwords and enter the one saved. I get the same message. I am using Version 115 and have been for some time.

Could this be related to a change of Profile? There must be a way to reset the password? I have checked all the settings and no errors appear, all settings confirmed.

I have thought about a Recovery Mode and seem to remember seeing a message that I do have that. I just don't know how to access it.
