I have been using T-bird as my email client for years. Just now, a new screen pops up with this message: "an error occurred during connection to localhost". I have 2 email accounts that I use with T-bird. The one is with comcast; it is the account that comes up with the error message. The other account is with Breezeline, and it appears to be unaffected. However, and this is the problem, I cannot send or receive email from either account. I am going to try to send both a hard copy of the error message, and the data from the T-bird program that I am using. Your help is appreciated. Thanks

Having problems with Thunderbird + Gmail : Want copying behaviour, am getting moving instead

I access a Gmail account with Thunderbird from browsers on differing machines. I also tried using Thunderbird itself to access the mail in Gmail.

So we have three different pieces here: A) Gmail account itself B) Thunderbird's view of the gmail account C) Thunderbird's local folders

What I was expecting was:

1) Thunderbird would pull copies of info on gmail (A) to Thunderbird's view of gmail account (B).

2) I would drag and drop folders or emails into the local folders (C) from Thunderbird's view of gmail account (B)

3) I would end up with gmail itself (A) having the email, Thunderbirds view of gmail account (B), and a copy in local folders (C).

You'll ask "Was it IMAP or SMTP/POP?". I entered the info in TB for the IMAP. There is SMTP information too that I see in TB. However, on gmail's settings on gmail itself says IMAP is disabled. POP is not disabled.


What I've got is confusion and things not where I expected.

1) I had Thunderbird pull info to its version of the gmail. 2) I dragged and dropped things (folders and emails) into local folders thinking I was making copies

Instead of what I expected, I ended up with:

Gmail account (A): All the tags somehow got pulled and the email is all sitting (I think maybe) in 'All Mail'. Not sure as there are hundreds of emails to look at an I think some things have been taken out of gmail.

Thunderbird's version of gmail account (B): Had a lot of email from gmail that had identical folders under the account in TB. Now those folders under TB's version of the email from gmail are empty.

Thunderbird's local folders (C): I think all the missing email from both gmail (A) and Thunderbird's version of the gmail account B) are now in local folders.

That's very much not the outcome I was looking for. I also was unclear was whether folders under the gmail account in Thunderbird were (in fact) local... the presence of the 'local folders' separately left me unsure.

I haven't used a mail client for personal use for a decade or more now. I use webmail (gmail). However, I wanted to do what I would have done in the old days - I wanted to pull down a copy of everything in gmail and save it (back when, it would have been as a .PST).

Mostly I was hoping for: I) Gmail mail is left on gmail. II) TB's version of the gmail account holds a copy of everything in gmail III) and I can backup, with a structure similar to gmail being preserved, a local repository (in whatever the right export format is these days) IV) If I'm in Thunderbird, I can send an email via gmail

I believe I can get every email that was messed up on gmail back there with some work. What I don't know is how to do what I want to do , as described immediately above. (Items I, II, III, and IV)

How can I do those things?

And are the folders under the gmail account representation in Thunderbird actually local? If so, why is there also local folders?

I am having difficulty getting certain emails. I am told by the sender that they "bounce back as a spam warning" Sometimes I don't know the emails I am NOT getting until I'm told. Two my daughter tried sending me an email and it took over 24 hours to get and she was getting bounce back messages. I can't get "NextDoor" notifications, a store in London couldn't email me, a local contractor couldn't send me an email, etc.. It's random who can't email me, but it's becoming increasingly concerning. It's only certain, legitimate emails. I still get all the spam! Where should I begin? I'm on Windows 10 Pro, using a yahoo/att email through Thunderbird. thanks for any suggestions! Cindy

As of a few months ago, I have been running into situations where my local folders wind up displaying some entries with no title, no sender, and garbled content (see image). Attempting to Repair the local folders does not have any visible effect.

Server is Microsoft Outlook, connected to via SMAP. I'm running Thunderbird 115.9.0 (64-bit) on Windows 10.

I'm also connecting to this mail server with Microsoft's android client, but that obviously doesn't know anything about the local folders so it shouldn't (?) be interfering.

This is Seriously Annoying. If I put something into the local folders, it's because I want to archive it for reference. That needs to be reliable.

Time for me to abandon Thunderbird? Or is this a known issue with a reliable fix?

When photos, videos, or websites are linked on a FB comment, it used to display a thumbnail preview below the comment. Now it just shows the link. On mobile, the preview appears. So I'm thinking a setting got changed on the desktop version.

This isn't the first time this has happened. After each occurrence, I have to completely uninstall the browser and reinstall it from scratch. This means I have to reopen all my tabs, which is very annoying. In Chrome, I have had a large number of tabs open for many years and it works fine.

With Mozilla, something terrible is happening... I have many tabs open in Mozilla, and there comes a moment when, upon launching the browser and opening two or three tabs, Mozilla starts consuming up to 10 gigabytes of RAM. If I open a few more tabs, the browser crashes. I don't need to open 50 or 100 tabs, just 7-8-10 tabs are enough to make the browser crash. Moreover, if I open a new tab and go to google.com, the browser takes a very long time to load, even if it's the second tab.

This problem has happened before. I don't do anything with the browser, just visit sites like YouTube.

Clearing the cache and other recommended actions do not yield positive results. This is very annoying. Mozilla is my first and favorite browser, which I have been using for almost 20 years. I wouldn't want to uninstall Mozilla.

Thunderbird forgets new identity every time I restart

Hi my email address (all services) has been migrated to a new company so I've got a new server name and new imap and smtp port numbers all of which has been duly filled in in the correct boxes (as far as I know). The new server name is mail.mail.coop the old one is smtp.iomartcloud.com. Everything seems to be working ok, ie. there's the new account listed in the left-hand window with all the folders and subfolders and all the emails in the correct places, all working fine inc. send and receive. The old iomartcloud account is still there just above it with all the folders etc. but no send and receive because the service has now been closed by the server company (all my emails have been transferred to the new server. If I go to my webmail page also all is ok inc. send and receive. I have set the new mail.mail.coop as the default and I've been trying to find out how to delete the iomartcloud one.

The problems I have are two: 1. I can't seem to find any way to delete the iomartcloud account from thunderbird. 2. Whenever I close and restart thunderbird it's forgotten the mail.mail.coop account/identity. I have to go to new account > existing email (my email address hasn't changed) and put in name, password etc. It all works fine again but next time I close thunderbird......

I know the server is ok and I know the passwords, port numbers, server addresses, etc. are ok because it all works fine each time I create the new account (for the 50th time!), so there's some other problem I haven't yet identified. I've searched on this forum and elsewhere, and hunted all around the settings menus but to no avail.

I wonder could the two things be connected? If I could delete the old account maybe it would solve the other problem. Note that both the email address, name and password are the same for both accounts, only the server address is different (and the port nubers maybe as well). And could the second problem be to do with the security settings of my browser or os? (brave browser, linux zorin os).

Sorry rather a long post! Hope someone can help me! Justin

As a longtime user of Thunderbird, I am very familiar with the Address Book. But a couple of years ago, "Cardbook" showed up on my Menu bar. It started out the same as the Address Book, but they are no longer identical. For example, in Cardbook my son's entry has one email address; in Address Book, he has four. What are the differences, and which one should I be using? This is of particular concern to me because I just synced my Address Books between devices using BirdieSync, and it wiped out a very important contact out of my Address Book. Luckily it was still there in the CardBook, but I don't want to lose my contacts in either.

I signed out and signed in. I googled what to do, updated Firefox, to no avail. Then I read to try another browser. Chrome worked fine for outlook/hotmail search function.

Before the update on April 29 I had no issues with my eBay account on Firefox. Now I am unable to get the pages to work properly. I cannot list any items for sale nor can I change any of my items in my store. Nothing saves and then redirects me to the homepage. eBay is one of my trusted seitz so I have no idea what’s causing this. It’s not eBay because my other accounts work fine on Chrome and on Safari. It happened exactly when the last update happened. And the only way that I can actually get back to the original site is to clear all my cookies and log out and start all over again, only to have the same issues over and over. I don’t know who to contact. I’m losing money in my Business every day because of this so I’m going to have to change my browser unfortunately if I don’t get a solution as soon as possible. Thanks for anyone who can help appreciate it.
