Thunderbird gemenskapsforum

I recently added a email address to my thunderbird email and it brought forward a lot of messages from Yahoo that are spam. I would like to block them and instructions I have were dated 2016 from Mozilla. Is there a new instruction on how to block?

All e-mails from Pay pal go into trash. Have marked as Not Junk but this has not helped. Needed e-mail from Pay pal today to pick up a click & collect order but didn't receive any e-mail. Tried to log in to Pay pal on Android phone not desktop PC as I usually do. Kept sending codes to my e-mail address to log in but I received nothing. Wasn't until I had come home and accessed Thunderbird on my PC that I found them all in the Trash. Luckily store gave me my order and I didn't have to go back.

1) How do I get the emails Thunderbird marks as spam to be moved to the Spam folder without me doing anything. I have thousands of emails now most marked as spam but I have to go in and move them one by freaking one!

2) Also you freaking filter system doesn't work worth a crap! I have created filters for instance: for any emails that have @cypress.com in the From part of the message to be moved to a folder under my inbox named Cypress. I have run it many times and actually none of the filters I've created work? They are very simple to understand and I am doing them correctly as far as I can tell but they don't work. I have created at least a dozen filters and the only emails moved are ones I moved manually myself.

And this training crap you have I don't know what you think it should take a computer to learn to move something to a folder. It's not like a child that has to be taught how to spell. You tell it if it has this in whichever field you've selected then it should move it. Not have to be taught? Not a bright idea in my opinion. It's why AI isn't very smart at least what they release to general users. Anyway I digress.

If you can help me with the above issues in the above paragraphs 1 & 3 I would greatly appreciate it.

Despite my marking messages several times as NOT spam, Thunderbird keeps on and on RE-marking them as spam. And the mails are coming from one of my own addresses, and they ARE in my address book!!!!!

There seems no way that I can stop the beast from misbehaving.

I had this issue some while back, then an update resolved it. Seems another update has brought it back.

Having just updated, still on ESR, I find that I now have 2 folders named "Spam", but in fact looking at the folder properties 1 is actually still "Junk".

The images explain it well.

As in the past, I'm unable to correctly rename the second Spam folder back to Junk.

It has to be the update that caused it (as previously).

When can I expect another update to resolve it?

Bonjour, Pourquoi actuellement tous les messages que j'envoie avec ma messagerie Thunderbird depuis mon compte FREE sont-ils identifiés comme spams par mes destinataires GMAIL ?

Good morning.

A few days ago the "Junk" folders in my Thunderbird accounts, without any action on my part, were suddenly renamed as "Spam" folders.

Anyone know why this happened?

Thanks

Hi!

I am using Ubuntu 26.04 with Gnome 50.1 (kernel 7.0.0-28-generic). I installed Thunderbird 1:140.13.0+build1-0ubuntu0.24.04.1~mt1 amd64 from source (140.12.1esr).

When I receive an email, I get a system notification where I have an option to "Mark as read" or "Delete". For most emails, if I click on "Mark as read", the email will be marked as read. However, Thunderbird has the feature to automatically put emails into Junk. And if I click on "Mark as read" for emails that are going to be automatically put into Junk, the emails will remain unread. It would be nice to mark the junk emails as read when I click on the button.

Thanks in advance!

I keep getting messages from 2 sites that give me a virus. Hoardpot AND contact@musterateam.com When I tried to unsubscribe it didn't work.

Tell me what to do please. Thanks

Using version 21.0 on Android 15 on a Motorola Stylus 5G 2024 phone. For the last week or so, selecting "Empty Trash" for my ymail.com account results in nothing happening. I have to log into yahoo.com via my browser and manually delete emails in the "Trash" folder.

‘spam filters do not work. After 18 years of putting up with it I want block senders and sender ip's WHAT IS UP? WHY DON"T YOU FIX THIS - Do I have to go to M$oft?????’ for ‘Thunderbird’

Addressing the problem, Practice Better says my acct is not blocked on their end. They say put

notifications@practicebetter.io in a safe senders list, but I can't find anything like that. How could I get my Thunderbird email acct to accept Practice Better's messages?

Thanks, Jane Kroll

When messages arrive in inbox and are marked spam they do not auto move to spam folder. I have to uncheck the spam icon and re-check it. Not until then will they move to spam folder.

========================================

A few days ago the left (file) pane went from

- InBox
- Drafts
- Sent
- Junk
- Spam
- Trash

to

- InBox
- Drafts
- Sent
- Spam
- Spam
- Trash

I attempted to change the first "Spam" back to the original "Junk"; didn't work. Have no clue why TBird decided to change the file names on its own.

Any information/direction(s) about how to correct this back to the original?

Thank you / appreciated. Nels

thunderbrd version 153.0.1 64bit windows11 Spamfilter problem

my contacts are all in the personal address book convinced they get filtered as NOT SPAM, recently some addresses out of my adressbook get filtered anyway - weird an expert told me to setup a whitelist as a subfolder: I did but same prob... as far I know the address book works like a whitelist anyway, no success also not long ago thunderbird had an update - and it feels since the dodgy filtering started. Using thunbderbird for ages - never had that prob ever - till recent

Is there any known solution please ? Thanks & regards Jochen

This happens regardless of whether message is moved to trash or junk folder. My concern are this also marks spam, phishing and/or malicious emails read which allows read receipt to be sent when enabled. I don't want to be forced to use remove immediately or disable read receipt option to ensure these messages are deleted unread.

I was cleaning up my wife's email when I noticed there are a lot of messages unread and in the trash folder that ought not to be. I am wondering how to fix that for her. Example: some amazon.com emails about orders, or emails from favorite merchants or websites.

Right click not working on spam email

Lately I am getting spam with from addresses I can not use the right click on to copy the email from address for reporting purposes. I have to use the More option, View Source and then search for the From address and copy it from there. Can this be fixed?

I saved off the source if someone wants to see it.
