Every time Mozilla does an update of Firefox or Thunderbird, I have trouble sending emails. This time seems to be really bad. It has been almost 5 days and no success. I have had others here say that my settings are correct and I have checked to see if it could be my Norton firewall. Actually, this latter I was not able to check really well. I need my email!! Help!
It's almost impossible to send a message to many recipients (using a mail list). I tried it with the same version from Win7 with NOD32 and Win8 with Avast.

I use thunderbird from 1.1.2014 and totally I have around 2000 emails, many of them with files attached in my disk. It's business address so I need them. I have it installed in two different laptops, one runs Win7 and uses NOD32 the other is new and runs Win8 with Avast free version for protection.
At the beginning everything worked perfectly. The last few months I experience low speed, thunderbird frozes for a few seconds etc on the second laptop with AVAST. It's also not possible to send a message to a mailing list with 48 recipients. When I try to do it, I also check the internet connection and I see that despite the fact that I click "Send" and thunderbird is "sending messages" there is no traffic (or very low traffic) on "Sent Data". Thus, nothing is being sent! I can let thunderbird working this "sending messages" for hours without anything happening. I was sure that this is a problem of Win8 but when I tried to send the same message to the same list from the other laptop (Win7 and NOD32) the same issue occured. It's important to know that Thunderbird is not running slow or freezes in Win7 with NOD32.
In the end, I use gmail to send the messages... When I tried gmail from both laptops, the message could be sent.
So, we have 2 possible problems: 1. Why Thunderbirds is running slow in Win8 with Avast, and how can we fix this? 2. Why is it not possible to send the message to the mailing list? I created the mailing list 2 times from the beginning and checked every email address carefully for spelling mistakes.
Thank you in advance for your time!

Why isn't my signature there when I reply to emails? It's only there when I create a new one.
When I open up a new email, my signature is there. But when I reply to an existing email, it's not there...help!

Good evening,
After several years on an Outlook-based email system, my company recently began migrating to a gmail-based email system. I'm trying to get a jump on things and I want to move all my saved Outlook emails to my gmail account. (On the Outlook system, emails were automatically deleted from the inbox after 30 days so I had to create a pst file.)
I've been working all day on a method to move my emails...my company's archaic and over-zealous email security settings haven't been helping things....and finally figured out that I could save my PST data file convert it to mbox files, open those files in Thunderbird, setup my gmail account through Thunderbird, and copy the emails over....great!
Except....I can't get it to copy more than a few emails at a time....and it hates to copy any email that has an attachment. Some of my saved email folders have 500+ emails in them. Are there any settings I can change it get it to just copy the whole folder of emails (and to not skip over the emails with attachments)? Or should I prepare myself for a long weekend of copying?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer this rookie!

after a (system error) IMAP account reset, I now have a small, clean account with few emails, after maintaining this account (many thousands of email) for over 20 years. The system admin won't help me, but fortunately I have numerous backups (entire Profile folder)
Since i'm not quite sure of the TBird sqlite/file strategy, I'm not sure i can 'integrate' (merge) the files, such as "Important"; "Sent Mail"; along with folders "Important.mozmsg"; etc. within the main account folder: "[Gmail].sbd" - and then merge 'NEW' INBOX file (130KB) with the 'OLD' INBOX file (170MB). Instead I'm hoping I can just create another TBIRD account that will hold my OLD files (as static documents that I will have access to through TBIRD) since I don't need to actually email 'OUT' or receive mail 'IN' to this account - i'll use the NEW account for that.
On the other hand, I'm hoping someone can clue me in to the possibilities of actually MERGING the old and new, otherwise I will just attempt to make do with this 'quasi account', with all its attendant restrictions.
I'm sure this has happened many times before, so If any one has other suggestions, please join in.

Slow internet connection causes Thuderbird downloading only one LARGE message, then stops. (1.8GB pop Inbox)

Client: Thunderbird (actual version). Mail provider: Yahoo. Account: POP, Save messages on server. Problem: With slow internet connection Thunderbird downloads only first large message, then stops. New attempt to get messages gives downloading the same message. And so on. A lot of similar problems can be found on internet and mozilla forums, but there is no right solution. Applying recommendations (compact folders, deleting *.msf files, deleting popstate.dat file, deleting account, reinstall Thunderbird etc...) DOES NOT help. I've found some regularity: If message takes MORE than 30-40 seconds to download, then problems appears. If messages takes LESS then 30 seconds Thunderbird downloads messages without problems. Speed when downloading is about 40-50 KB (kilobytes) per second. Here coming another problem, but I think it's not related to Thunderbird: when I download messages from Yahoo through the Webmail, I have a speed about 200 KB (kilobytes) per second.

I did a search for the term "AVS" and it returned every email containing an address with "Ave." in it. That is NOT what I searched for. I did another search for the word "converter", and it returned results containing "convert", "converted", etc. — i.e., variations of my search term. That is NOT what I searched for. Putting the term in quotes does not help. Surely there is a way around this? Can I disable spell-checking and suggestions?

In Thunderbird (against an imap server), it's too easy to accidentally click on one of the titles in the top of the message summary window and change the sort order from the usual desired order (Sort by date, ascending, threaded). It's too hard to change it back - it takes several traversals through the View|SortBy menu. It should be easy.
Could you add a little shortcut icon to reset the window sort order to date/ascending/threaded (maybe beside the pin icon "Keep filters applied when switching folders").
This applies to Windows and Linux versions 36.0 and most of the previous versions.
Thanks!
