Thunderbird will not let me reply to email. I try to reply and I get this box: "ESMTP not available" (whatever that means). Over the years I have been using and donating to this service but this keeps dysfunction keeps happening. I am frustrated and a bit angry. It doesn't seem appropriate. I do not know how to fix it. It is not my job to know how to fix it. I am an artist and a writer. I do my job. I am not a tech person. - JohnB

One day I tried to send an email, and it failed. This just happened suddenly without me touching any of my settings. When that happened, I researched reasons and have tried everything. It's an outgoing server error. I tried changing it to what my email provider and the internet says it should be, but nothing works. I even called Spectrum, and they said I needed to contact Thunderbird support.

Hi I've recently started using Thunderbird & have made several customisations & created a userChrome.css file. I find the yellow star on a starred message a bit to easy to miss. Is there a way to either make the yellow star another colour or to make the starred message in the message list another colour (like Outlook does)? The only info I have found so far makes all stars change colour - starred on unstarred. That defeats my objective. Thanks, Tony

I am using Thunderbird on a Mac and I'm trying to change the color and font of my signatures in the Signature Switch add-on. Can someone help me on how to do this? I don't know HTML, but I gave it a try and it didn't seem to work. Thanks in advance for any help.

I accidentally selected "view" instead of "delete" for ~300 messages. On restart T-bird crashes before displaying the Inbox. I cannot now view any old messages. Is there a way to stop T-bird from trying to view the ~300 messages? Thanks.

Thunderbird generated a crash report but did not send it. I got "There was a problem submitting your report"

Thunderbird will not start because the first visible startup action is the popup window: "Please enter your Primary Password". Unable to create a password for the initial,first time re-start of Window if on old machine, option was to avoid this. How to fix? ...so I can set and set and use it.

I have the need to modify the subject line of emails that I receive - I add a note to the existing subject line. It appears there are several add on's that help with this - is there one that works best?

Thanks in advance!

I use Outlook on Thunderbird. If I log in to Outlook using a browser and send an email. Then I check the email in Thunderbird's Outbox, the sender is not my own email address, but a string of characters starting with "IMCEAEX-_O" If I send an email through Thunderbird, the sender can be displayed normally.

I have a calendar reminder from last week (I was away from the computer). Now, it keeps popping up. If I click dismiss or dismiss all, nothing happens.

I am running 128.4.0.

When reading an email message, if I highlight text in within the message, and then right-click, I get a pop-up menu that includes options such as:

  Copy
  Select All
  Search Google for <selected text>
  Open
  Reply
  etc, etc, etc...

Is there any config file for this menu that can be edited? I would like to add additional items in the same section as the "Search Google for", to use other search URLS and also include the <selected text> portion. If this was in a config file somewhere, it seems I could just duplicate the line & change the URL. This would allow me to be much more efficient ...

Thanks, Rob

I changed my password on e-mail provider server. Mail works fine via browser, but i can't send and obtain any e-mails via Thunderbird. I have changed password but it doesn't work. Piotr

I am unable to send e-mails! I get the message "An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: <susann.mitchell@community-resource.org.uk> too many recipients in last hour.

Please check the message recipient "susann.mitchell@community-resource.org.uk" and try again."

This has only occurred in the last two days and I have not changed any settings. One day working - next not working!!! How do I get back to normal operation, please? Roy

I use an AOL email account and Thunderbird on my Mac. In Thunderbird, the junk mail folder - which AOL call "Bulk Mail" for some reason - has moved to the Trash folder and I can't get it out. It's a Thunderbird problem - if I go onto my account at AOL.com, everything is normal. How do I get it out? I've tried cutting and pasting it, creating a new folder...nothing seems to work. I don't want to empty the trash in case I no longer have a junk folder at all

Every time I read an email, a tab shows up at the top of my screen. Soon there is a long string of tabs. What is the purpose of these? I have no use for them and they confuse me. How can I delete them all easily and quickly, such as using a keyboard shortcut?
