Forum Bashkësie Thunderbird

I recently clicked a like on a reply to one of my questions on this help forum and then somehow I also clicked on dislike as I was scrolling through the reply so I clicked the dislike again thinking this would remove the dislike but instead it added another dislike to the person who replied to my question I did not think is was possible to add mulitple likes and dislikes to the same person but it appears this is what I have done is it possible to remove the likes and dislikes you have added and if so how do you go about removing them. Thanks.

I'm trying to set up our Thunderbird account on a new laptop. I can't seem to do it. It does recognize our email address but I possibly can't remember the right password to continue.

We have 3 Email accounts with Orange.fr, who recently blocked them, due to 'Suspicious Activity'. In the process of unblocking them, I unwittingly selected IMAP protocol. I need to re-activate our POP3 accounts and remove the IMAP ones. I've followed your guidence onthis, but get error message "Incoming server already exists" Can you help, please? Best wishes Derek

My Macbook Pro has been crashing - sometimes Firefox, sometimes Thunderbird -sometimes multiple times/day. I've saved many of the crash reports in case they might help someone know how to fix this. An Apple tech person diagnosed my memory was broken, so I just got a new logic board and reinstalled all my data from my Time Machine backup. Then a message popped up that Thunderbird was damaged and should be put in the trash. Around the same time i replied to an email from someone at Thunderbird donor who was responding to a question i had about a small donation i tried to make - i explained i was having trouble with Thunderbird. At that time, i could see the Thunderbird icon in my task bar. When talking with someone from Apple support this evening who was helping me answer a couple of questions, including about a new "mail" icon that showed up in my task bar, I mentioned that i'd like to learn how to back up or archive my emails in Thunderbird. That's when i saw that the Thunderbird icon - had disappeared. The Apple support person and i searched all over my computer for the Thunderbird app, but couldn't find it. I'm really nervous. I have over 300,000 emails I've been wanting to learn how to archive - or something. I don't want to delete most of them. I hope someone can help me find everything. Thank you.

Background - my old (selfhosted IMAP) server died, I was able to recover the Maildir but for whatever reasons both dovecot and courier ignore the "message read" metadata embedded in the filenames so the local copy in Thunderbird is suddenly the most authoritative.

But every time I try to bulk copy from the old account to local folders or to my new server it fails because it tries to contact the dead server.

Looking for ways to attack this problem

I have two email accounts. One is about 2% of my email sending and one is 98% of my email sending. One of them is the default choice when I create a new message to send. Guess which one is the default?

How the absolute F do I get TB to re-order these so that I am not sending so many messages from the wrong address?

Do I need to set up a completely different profile for TB and only launch into that when I am going to send from the lesser-used account? What the heck do I have to do?

Hi folks,

Thunderbird 128.6.0esr (64-bit) on Fedora 41 Linux...

I'm trying to export all messages in a mailbox on an old Yahoo mail account and then import all those messages into another email account. I access both accounts from Thunderbird. I'm using IMAP protocol, and all email accounts keep the messages on the server.

I've exported the mailbox to a folder on my computer; now all the email messages exist as separate .eml files in that folder. But I can't see how to import them into the second email account.

It seems that exporting my entire profile won't help as I'm not moving everything to a second computer. But I cannot see any way to select just the one mailbox from the one 'source' email account that I want to import into the 'destination' email account.

Thanks...
