Thunderbird Community Forum

hello: for several weeks, each time I tried to add another account back to Thunderbird, MS asked for the verification, and after I added it to link to their server, it kept telling me, "Help us beat the robot," and nothing else happened; the screen stayed blank. I am unable to see any further command. If it is being done using Windows, often you may see holding down the space bar or solving a puzzle to gain access. When it comes to Linux, I ran into this issue.

This is strange! Maybe it is trying to stop me from using this account on this platform to get all my mail here. I've been using it here for many years and no issues. Please see the attached. Please look into this. Thank you....

Installed Thunderbird Setup 153.0.3 and npw when running t-bird get a prompt asking abut a 'thundermail" address. Please advise.. What is "thundermail" and why is it in my way? I am a regular donor to T-bird sent several, emails addressing the "thundermail" weirdness and thus far no reply. .

Hi, I have two accounts in my Thunderbird. They are Gmail (regular gmail account) and CFCC (an institutional account). The CFCC shows up in my Unified Folder list but the Gmail does not. Is that normal? The main Inbox is showing all incoming emails from both accounts so no performance issues, just wondering how to get rid of the CFCC (if that's possible) to eliminate clutter. Thank you. GES

when I try and add my microsoft outlook account, it redirects to a webpage, which after saying yes a few times with an already signed in session, redirects to localhost 44645. localhost 44645 notably does not seemingly direct to anything, and thunderbird does not change. clicking "continue" re opens the microsoft webpage How should i connect my outlook account? system details; ``` OS: Linux Mint 22.3 x86_64 Host: ThinkPad L14 Gen 2a Kernel: 6.14.0-37-generic Uptime: 7 hours, 40 mins Packages: 2177 (dpkg) Shell: bash 5.2.21 Resolution: 1920x1080 DE: Cinnamon 6.6.4 WM: Mutter (Muffin) WM Theme: Mint-Y-Dark-Aqua (Mint-Y) Theme: Mint-Y-Aqua [GTK2/3] Icons: Mint-Y-Sand [GTK2/3] Terminal: gnome-terminal CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5850U with Radeon Graphics (16) @ 4.508GHz GPU: AMD ATI Radeon Vega Series / Radeon Vega Mobile Series Memory: 14803MiB ```

When selecting which email account to send FROM, the drop down shows a number of old email accounts. These accounts have been deleted. There are no details showing under the "account settings" or "Outgoing server." Which file stores the mail server information and where is it? I currently have around forty different email accounts across five mail servers.

Best regards

Every five minutes Mozilla sends me a page asking for access to my Google account. I click "deny" and it goes away for a few minutes, but comes right back. And while it is on, I can neither send nor receive email. Is there some way to get it to go away and stay away? Thanks, Larry Wright

I have several Yahoo email accounts. I collect all email from them using pop. A few days ago on one of those accounts, when it's polled, the message "downloading 1 of x appears. However, nothing is downloaded and eventually the server timeout message appears.

I tried the repair inbox function, it didn't work. So I deleted the account and tried to add it again. I get the error message "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIMsgAccountManager.createIncomingServer]"

However, if I select manual config and test the server it tests ok, then produces the above error after continue.

None of my other accounts are affected.

Any ideas gratefully accepted

1) When launched, Thunderbird 140.13 has a pop-up window asking for a Host Gator login. HG has not been used or on this system over 8 years. "cloud80.hostgator.com is requesting your username and password." What would cause this window to appear and How to delete it completely?

2) Also, after the Thunderbird 140.13 installed and re-launched, an email was sent requesting to verify location and login sent from: "accounts at firefox.com". Is this a common request from Mozilla firefox / thunderbird?

After the last update of Thunderbird, we lost the ability to send gmail messages from our pop gmail account. We only got incoming messages when we restarted thunderbird. We've worked for 6 hours with Claude Opus and it finally gave up. Out AOL account and our comcast accounts still work. We tried to create a new imap account in gmail and that spins forever. Account does not get created. the last error message was " Error Creating Account - Incoming server already exists."

Then we tried deleting the pop account and then creating a imap account and that also spun forever failing to create an account. Webmail works.

I have not being able to add this 4 account to thunderbird: hotmail.co.uk/ live.co.uk/btinternet.com/gmail.com. I keep getting error either cannot connect to server or username and password wrong. I have managed to add two accounts successfully. I don't quiet understand what is happening with this new 153.0.1 version. I has it working before I had to reinstall windows 11 PRO. Could you help me please! Thank you! Best regards, Jairo Goncalves
