Thunderbird for Android Community Forum

I want to move email messages around in local folders, but "move" doesn't show even when enabled in settings when the account is POP3

However when using IMAP it is worse as the App keeps messing not only with the server messages an folders, but also with other devices.

Hello,

For a few days everything worked perfectly. Now suddenly I cannot fetch any emails on neither Thunderbird for android nor Thunderbird on Ubuntu. Both latest versions at time of writing. Sending mails works. Another email client works, another email address from the same server (but different domain) does work.

Any ideas what I can do?

I am experiencing a problem with Thunderbird for Android.

My setup:

• Smartphone: Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra (SM-S918B)
• Android version: Android 16
• Computer: Windows PC
• Desktop email client: Thunderbird for Windows (latest version)
• Email accounts are configured and working correctly on the Windows version of Thunderbird.

The issue concerns the Android application. Despite using the same email address, login credentials and server settings that work correctly on my Windows computer, I am unable to properly configure or synchronize the account in Thunderbird for Android.

The desktop version connects without any issues, while the Android application either rejects the settings or fails to synchronize properly.

I have already:

• verified the email address and password,
• confirmed that the same credentials work on the Windows version,
• checked the incoming and outgoing server settings,
• reinstalled the Android application,
• ensured that the device has an active internet connection.

Could you please advise what additional steps I should take to resolve the issue?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Kind regards,

When manually refreshing an account, new messages do not appear automatically; you must scroll down to see them.

This is a regression from a previous fix in a version of K9 from a few years ago I believe.

Mail.com support recommended that I install Thunderbird to clean out my inbox. Things went perfectly and I managed to delete 20,000. Then the app just STOPPED. It wouldn't delete any more. I emptied my email's trash, restarted my phone twice, and cleared the cache several times. The app is just inoperable.

Please help! I have 265,000 more emails to delete.

Hello,

I know how i can add an image or a banner in an email in the desktop version, i also know how i can make a sort of banner with a signature file in the desktop version.

But i would really like to know how i can use a email banner or image and center it in the middle of the top of the email when i use the android app. is that possible? And which steps do i need to take?

Thank you

I am preparing to migrate from K9 mail to Thunderbird for Android. Before I go through the process and learning curve for the software, one key feature will be the determining factor.

Does Thunderbird for Android have inbox rules, possibly also called Filters like in Thunderbird Desktop, that will automatically find keywords or sender info in the header of a received message and deposit that message into a designated alternate folder?

That would determine whether I switch to Thunderbird for Android.

Thanks.

I have an samsung s26 ultra, and I have all the configuration correctly, but when I receive a email app does sync automatically and it never show me notifications, I must open app an manually sync

Hver gang jeg får mails i min indbakke så kræves det at jeg sletter dem ikke bare en gang, men to gange, før de væk fra indbakken. Tidligere har jeg kunnet slette en mail en enkelt gang - som i alle andre mailprogrammer - men nu skal jeg som sagt dobbelt - slette dem. Hvad kan jeg gøre for at annullere indstillinger om dobbelt - sletning. Kh Flemming

I was working with my own simple pop3 test server and noticed thunderbird also K-9 and even Gmail seem to send some unstandard commands to the server causing an error. FairEmail however works fine. The server is a simple pop3 for local testing can anybody explain why your email clients are not compatible with pop3 standards perhapse how you deviated from the standard?

Hi Team,

Regarding replying previous email, I have tried several time to attach files or photos, but the app will be closed automatically. Do I need to do any settings for it?

However, for creating new email, there is no problem for attaching files.
