Komunitné fórum Thunderbird pre Android

My android phone has access to a USB pen-drive on which I placed a backup copy of all my TB folders. Can I use TB for android locally to read these emails? How? Thank you.

I get a message trying to access my account: Kunne ikke skrive mailen i mailmappen. Sørg for at du har skriverettigheder til filsystemet, og at du har nok diskplads til at kopiere mailmappen. This is in danish so I hope You understand. But how to solve this issue? I can not receive mails because of this. Best regards Poul Kristiansen

Hello everyone,

The current implementation of push notification in Thunderbird keeps a persistent connection to the email servers and consumes a lot more battery/compute.

An alternative idea that is used by some other projects like Bitwarden is a push notifications relay. https://bitwarden.com/help/configure-push-relay/

1. A service running not on the phone keeps a connection open to the email servers. This can be a discrete application and it can optionally be bundled into Thunderbird desktop.

2. A website similar to push.bitwarden.com where users can generate "proxy" tokens for the real push tokens for their installations or maybe we can share the original push token directly instead of relaying notifications through thunderbird infra? I will prefer the latter but I have not thought about the security considerations of exposing the real push notification token

3. The discrete application or Thunderbird desktop can send a message to GCM/APM using the token when they receive an email.

This is the only blocker for me in adopting thunderbird on android and I really want to do it but immediate push notifications that don't impact battery/compute are a priority for me.

K9-mail User since 2010 Just had to reinstall to fix broken: empty folders. Now I have a bell icon in top margin (notification area) , who's sole purpose is to tell me mail client has a 'push' connection established the the server. I didn't need this bell to tell me that for the last 15 years, and don't want it now. I DO need PUSH, but don't want to see a bell telling me it's on. How to get rid of it? thank you

Hello,

is it possible to use for adressing mails a adressbook or stored adresses in the App?

Like in the Thunderbird Desktop Version?

Regards Johannes

I want to report that on Pixel 8a ( rooted ) I can't see what mails did I send. I have it, even after reinstalling OS or changing ROM. I have connected Google Mail to ThunderBird. IDK what more info I can give.

First off, I love Thunderbird for my PC; however, Thunderbird for Android (on my tablet) not so much. Are there any plans to create a way for Thunderbird for Android to rearrange the order of the mail accounts, like the PC version does?

I try to download the app from the playstore, and it says Thunderbird will install soon, but soon never comes. I never get to the stage where you confirm the path name

One of the recent updates mentioned something about changing the colors for read vs unread emails. Now the contrast between the two states is barely perceptible, whereas before it was fairly clear (at least when using the dark theme; I have checked both themes on the current version and they both suffer). Is there a better forum to provide this feedback?

Thunderbird on my Android phone updates to 12.1 today, and now the unified inbox no longer has folders under it. In the attaches screenshot, there used to be folders below "Inbox". I could control which folders from any account showed up there. Now they're all gone. How do I bring them back?

I just installed Thunderbird 12.0 on my Phone (Galaxy Note20, Android 13). Account setting were taken from my Desktop PC using the QR Code. In all three Accounts only Mails in the Main IMAP-Inbox are shown. Subfolders (like "sent" or "drafts") are all found, but the messages inside will not be shown. It will only say "Load more messages" but does not find any. In K9-Maiil 11.1 this still worked, but I had to uninstall it as after the automatic update to 12.0 it suddenly kept crashing on startup.

Already tried to add my main account from scratch on my tablet (with a fresh install of Thunderbird 12.0), but the problem with empty subfolders remains.

Any thoughts on this?
