Thunderbird Community Forum

When I want to insert images into an email, I use the "Send via email" option. I am then prompted to "Select image size," after which I click "Attach." At this point, a Thunderbird window should open with the files already attached—but it doesn't. What am I doing wrong?

Since Friday I have not been able to use thunderbird. I can open it but it wont connect to Virgin.com I have checked all settings (click on test connection it states good) then every five minutes when it try's to connect I get the following message (email address removed)

Login to server pop3.virginmedia.com with username ******* failed

I still get mail on my phone so it's down to a Thunderbird issue I believe. Tried to reinstall same issue, tried a new account and wont allow me to authenticate.

PLEASE can someone help - have a load of work to do but can't get on. Thanks in advance David.

I just added a Gmail account to Thunderbird. It is showing the following folders: Inbox Drafts Sent Sent All Mail Spam Spam Trash Important Starred

I would like to delete the duplicate folders, all mail, important and starred. Any idea how to do that? OS is Windows 11 Pro on my desktop PC.

Appreciate information.

I deleted one of my emails accounts because it was hacked; I logged in to Ionos (hosting my email) and had to change my password; I changed the password but now I can't reinstall it; Authentication failed; FYI when I use the webmail using the new password, I can check my emails. Please help; Thank you.

I stopped getting e mails 9 days ago on Thunderbird. I found out that plusnet that used to have me had passed on to greenby. I can get onto greenby but i would prefer to be on Thunderbird because of my saved business e mails. Mike

When I click "extensions" under Tools > Add-ons and Themes, I get the following message:

Sorry, you have been blocked You are unable to access thunderbird.net

I.e. going from https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/search/ to https://addons.thunderbird.net/En-uS/thunderbird/extensions/

This happens in Thunderbird, Firefox and Vivaldi, both from my job or my home network (using NordVPN). Funnily search still works, so I suspect the link itself might be broken. Cloudflare tells me to contact the site owner, but they have made themselves incommunicado and refer me to community support who obviously aren't able to fix the problem!

(It is also disconcerting that Cloudflare asks me to enable cookies in Thunderbird, which is a huge privacy issue. However I get the same error in browsers with cookies enabled, so that is not the real issue here.)

Was kann ich tun? Habe Probleme mit mozilla. Bei derAuführung der Programme Thunderbird ( ständig ) und Firefox ( manchmal ) kommt es zu Abstürzen wie Programm keine Rückmeldung, einfrieren so das keine Eingaben mehr möglich sind und ich jedesmal das Programm schließen und neu starten muß.

I cannot get Thunderbird to launch. It acts like it is stuck on perhaps one account and circles keep spinning as if it never can get a few of my tabbed emails open. It keeps saying it "isn't responding." Since this began happening a few days ago, I've stopped the Thunderbird task through Task Manager, I've shutdown and restarted my whole system multiple times, I've updated to the latest Windows platform and made sure my drivers were all up to date... I can't update my thunderbird (if required) because I can't get in in the first place. I have hundreds of emails in multiple accounts under my current Thunderbird. I can't afford to lose all that history. I don't know which version I'm using because, again, I can't get the desktop app to launch. What do I do?

Thunderbird is installed on an iMac Retina 5K, 27" 2019 computer running macOS 15.7.6, but just this week, when it starts, it only opens a window with tabs and does not finish opening the app. The window shows the tabs, but they just have a bouncing dot from right to left, and anywhere I move the mouse on the window's control bar, I get a swirling color wheel. I restarted the Mac (no change), deleted the app and downloaded a new one, and nothing changed. Force Quit says it's 'not responding'. What do I do next?

I have been having difficulties with my email service provider and Thunderbird. So am trying to export my contacts. They still, fortunately, show up in Thunderbird. When I go to export, it doesn't give me any options on saving other than exporting into a zip file a profile backup.... no contact list like I really need.

I have 2 email addresses which I can't access the first one because I lost my number. Now I need to link the first email to the current account without having to use my older phone number.
