Forum Bashkësie Thunderbird

Have TB on my laptop (146.0.1 (64-bit) on Win11) all set up the way I want it. Would like to "clone" those settings/profiles to my desktop. AI site said, "Copy profiles folder and profiles.ini to the new machine." Didn't work. Asking me to set up from scratch. Laptop is on "standard" edition, think desktop is on beta. Is that the problem? What do I need to do?

Sent mail has suddenly vanished, even though it is still on the originating file server. This happened very suddenly. I uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird, but no change. I am about to reboot PC to see if this will solve the problem. Very strange!

I dropped by to see if I replies to a query about Thunderbird. Sometimes the options to Login wouldn't let me in, it kept going to "Como colaborar" that went to a Page with mixed English and Portuguese, another page had mixed Spanish, Portuguese and English.

After a lot of translating, I made it my login. Wow! And my day has just begun. :) ~r

Thunderbird 140.6.0esr (64-bit) "On Linux LMDE 6" 64 bit, on an Intel platform. An HP small format desktop, using two screens.

I see this issue (below) when receiving digest mail from groups.io See the hopefully attached image. If that didnt come through, I can send you a whole screenshot if needed.

The issue is that the first line is correct. The "sender" is the group "linuxham" and is a mail digest message. The second line "Thunderbird 2025: A Year in Review" is correct.

However.. The third line from the UKMicrowaves group, another groups.io group configured to use "Digest Delivery" mode, is shown as coming from "[edited] @groups.io" Misleading at best! (It is always the linuxham group details that is used, regardless of which group has sent the digest.)

The last two lines are correct.

I see this on all groups.io group mail where what comes to me is in the form of a "Digest" (so as not to flood my inbox.) Does T'Bird handle "Digest" mails differently to one-to-one mails?

This odd labeling of the "Correspondents" started some time ago as a result of a past T'Bird update, but prior to that update, was not an issue. I have "Many" groups.io groups I'm a member of.

Sorry but it's taken me this long to find out how to submit this info and ask the question.

I'd love for this to be fixed, and am willing to test any trial version(s) that may be needed, and/or to provide any other needed system info that would help. I am contactable on [edited from public] @googlemail.com

Oh... I made "Many" attempts over the last year or three to setup a "Mozilla" account to report this, but I now know "Mozilla" has renamed to just "Moz". Sadly, "Moz account creds" are not accepted! to login here.

By accident I found that a Google ID works. Pity that was not sorted some time ago, else I could have reported this sooner. (Better presentation on the T'bird support initial web page would help with such confusion, or is this intentional to filter out lame questions? And lower support costs! I know of others who implement such! ;-)

Anyway, thanks for seemingly letting me in at last. Much appreciated from a long time Thunderbird user of "Many years".

Even with the above wrinkle, it's far the best mail client out there I find. True "Cross Platform" too. (Though I found the Android offering rather "clunky" at best.)

Thanks Again.

Yours...

Dave or G8KBV, yes a "Ham"...

Hello,

When creating a new account with the email provider @gmx.de, after entering my name, email address, and password, it is confirmed that this combination is found in the Mozilla ISP database. (1)

After clicking the 'Done' button (2), an error message is displayed (3).

I can log in to the email account using the same credentials via a browser.

What could be the cause of this behavior?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

As you can see in the screenshot, the umlauts are missing in many emails. Unfortunately, the corresponding fonts can no longer be set in Thunderbird; I use version 140.6.0esr (32-bit). Where can I set that ä, ö, ü, ß (...) are displayed normally? Greetings from Berlin, Markus

I am a regular supporter of Mozilla. Since changing my desk top computer and re-entering Thunderbird, I have had font size problems, to read incoming E-mails but even more so with sending E-mails, when the print size is almost too small to read. What can I do about his? Please go easy on me : I am a non-techy 91 year old so words of few syllables in everyday terms, please.

- Windows 10, the size is OK

- I have 'Googled" this problem and there seems to be no answer.

Ever since I stupidly let Thunderbird 'update' to 140.5esr 64bit the date format has been wrecked. The program now forces the plain weird US date format of Month-Day-Year. I hoped that this obvious error would be fixed but it's been rather a long time now and the problem - and IT IS A PROBLEM - hasn't been addressed. It looks like Thunderbird is following Firefox in making each version worse. Whilst I switched to Pale Moon long ago there is as yet no fork of Thunderbird. If I were still on Windows for internet use I would just install an older version alas I do not know how to do this on Linux (Q4os Trinity) PLEASE fix this problem. I am far from the first to point this massive mistake out.

I am genuinely grateful to the people who work on these projects but a little more effort on actually being able to use the programs would be a substantial advance.

Quand l'envoie une PJ avec un compte qui a smtp.free.fr, j'ai le blocage "L’envoi du message a échoué. Le message n’a pas pu être envoyé car la connexion au serveur sortant (SMTP) smtp.free.fr a expiré. Veuillez essayer à nouveau." Si je l'envoie avec un compte qui a smtp.sfr.fr, je n'ai pas de problème ! Je suis en Thunferbird 146.0.1 (64 bits) sur Windows 10. Merci de votre aide.

Merging an installation I need to move emails from a local folder to my inbox folder and sent box folder. When I try to do this the menus seem to permit it but the emails don't move. Why might that be?

I'm using Thunderbird in Polish language. After upgrade to ver. 144.0.1 folder names for my only IMAP account have changed into English and fonts into capital (except inbox folder name). Attached screenshot shows discribed case in red frame - capital names are in Engliś and inbox is in Polish. Below in green frame there is my POP account and folder names are correct.

I was in the process of searching my files to attach one to an email when the attachment window suddenly expanded from approx 50% of the screen to almost full screen and I can find no way to reset it. I can see the sideand bottom edges of the window, and move the expand/contract arrow on the cursor to these sides and the bottom corners, but it does not operate, and there is no button to minimise or adjust it. I have just checked and it is operating perfectly fine on both Firefox and the main Thunderbird window, and email viewing windows. Is this a change to the program settings - it appears to only apply to the "Attach" setting - viewing attachments and emails are as they always were.

Bonjour, après plusieurs échanges sur le même message (envoi, réponse, etc..) dans outlook, tous les échanges restent dans le même message. Dans thunderbird il considère que que chaque élément de discussion resté dans le corps de message est un nouveau message, je reçois bien un message mais lorsque je l'ouvre, il y à plusieurs onglets. Comment avoir la même présentation que j'avais dans outlook. merci de votre réponse
