Forum Bashkësie Thunderbird

I used to be able to copy links from Youtube and send them to people to watch. Now thunderbird is not letting me do that and says it is spam. This is so irritating as my bedridden sister loved to watch the things I would send her. Is there a way around the spam setting?

I have a backup file from another thunderbird installation. The profile in this backup contains a file named abook.mab. I suppose this is the address book. I would like to copy the addresses from this installation to my current thunderbird 147.0.1 (64-bit). Tools > import > address book does not work. Can you please advise me?

I allowed Thunderbird to compact my files after I got tired of seeing the prompts for it, now all my messages are apparently gone for one account, in over 12 different sub folders. How do I get these back’ for ‘Thunderbird’ ? VERY IMPORTANT! version 144.0.1 (64 bit)

This is the second time I have lost emails with Thunderbird.

IT WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN, I AM DONE WITH THIS CRAP!

Good day, thank you in advance for your help.

I have two questions: 1. Do you find Thunderbird release [version number missing] better than ESR? Could you share your opinion?

It seems faster and applies all changes more quickly.

I will test it sometime if 32-bit and 64-bit versions are available simultaneously. I have no idea what kind of channel that would be.

Problem/Question:

In Thunderbird release 64-bit POP3, the font changes to blue for every second email (receipts). Can you tell me how to display every email in black? It's only the second email in the inbox that's displayed in blue (receiving emails). When composing, everything looks black. What do I need to change?

Question 2: Regardless of whether it's 32-bit or 64-bit, and whatever channel, I see updates to the latest version. The program itself has an option to view older updates, but everything is white. I only see white and nothing else. Is this intentional? I can't see the update, even though it's current?

``` thanks for the information

I was not receiving emails from a Comcast.net email account. I called Best Buy and they used remote access to fix the problem. That fix included deleting and reinstalling the email account. After hanging up with their tech, I notices that dozens of folders and thousands of emails from the last 12 years were gone. I called the Geek Squad back and they could not solve the problem. Are the missing emails still on my computer somewhere? If not, can Comcast recover them? Please help!

I followed the recommended procedure to transfer the TB profile from an older W10 computer to a new W11 computer (both using POP accounts ), via a USB Flash Drive. The folders are all listed on the USB profile copy and observed during the scrolling detailed view while being copied to the new computer. Nevertheless, they are NOT listed in Local Folders on the new profile. Instead, ALL the messages (approx 700 of them!) are presented as UNREAD in the inbox folder. How can I restore the original folder sorting?

As long as I've used TB, which is many years now, I've had no complaints. I have absolutely no desire to change to a different program.

That being said, I'm at wits' end with the recent issue of Notification Sound Alerts (NSA) upon delivery of a new message. Simply stated, beginning about 6 or 8 months ago, the NSA seem to simply work whenever they want to. I can go a month or two at a time and receive the NSA, and then suddenly one day, NSA will stop functioning on its own. This "pause," we'll call it, will last 4 or 5 months, then then suddenly begin to work again.

I have attempted every imaginable fix as recommended in this forum. There's no need to list them all, because I've made every suggested adjustment that's been recommended. But there's no rhyme or reason to why the NSA will work as programed for a period, and then decide on its own to stop working.

I don't know if this is a glitch in TB that is simply beyond my feeble attempts to rectify, or if any other TB users are experiencing the same issue. I have even gone so far as to attempt to find an Add-On that will supplement the NSA. However, none that I have uncovered, particularly those suggested in this Forum, seem to be compatible with either the version of TB or Windows 10. I understand that Win 10 is not longer supported in the forum, but please! I do not want to migrate years of email files to another program. I want to use TB but simply need to be "Alerted" when new messages hit the Inbox.

Any assistance or suggestions (except those basic adjustments that proliferate the forum, i.e insure the sound mixer is not muted, etc, etc) would be greatly appreciated and thanks for listening.

I run TBD 140.8.0 esr (64 bit) under Debian 12 Linux. Until recently I could automatically enter a special address from the pertaining addressbook, this does not work anymore. helpfiles do not show a solution thus I am here.

The addressbook is full of addresses however I have to transfer a special address via past and copy into the addressfield of the mail I want to send.

Thanks for a quick answer Jörg Kampmann

Things have suddenly disappeared. My sent file is gone and I have searched and can't find it. Tonight I went to send an email and the tab for doing that is also missing. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no success. What's wrong and how do I fix it?

'URGENT I can receive emails but cannot send emails. Keep getting them back "undeliverable" but they are to my regular email addresses. I have checked and recheck the format for sending they are correct. This occurred around 2nd April As I am making arrangements for a family member's funeral this is an urgent matter.
