Thunderbird Community Forum

I am unhappy with version 150 of Thunderbird. In earlier versions, I was able to access the full range of emojis when writing an email. That is no longer possible; I can now only access a few. The integration of add-ons with Thunderbird isn’t working properly. After adding the German dictionary, Thunderbird froze; after adding ImportExport Tools, Thunderbird not only crashed but also wouldn’t start up again.

• I am able to convert emails to tasks in Gmail
• I am able to flag emails in outlook to be read into Microsoft To Do
• I can tag emails in Thunderbird but then what?
• I have not seen an extension for this

I have MCI and i need to get tasks organized including todo items in email and calendar apps. Any help would be welcomed.

This is a continuation of the thread - [is being managed by your organisation CAUSE: Bitdefender]

The solution of deleting the Registry Key does not work. It simply comes back after reboot. I have engaged with BitDefender support and they suggested the same thing - they also added to uninstall TB which I am not going to do.

The issue is that the BitDefender extension is not installed in a normal way, and cannot be removed. The settings in BitDefender do not make any difference, I cannot change settings in a Thunderbird account eg change a folder location, it looks like it works, but it actually does not.

I did find in the about:config extensions.webextensions.uuids key has the bdThunderbird@bitdefender.com entry but there is no indication as to what other strings belong to the entry and I do not to mess things up.

I do realize this is a BitDefender issue, and i did follow up with their support but I am wondering if anyone has solved this annoying issue.

Thanks

After installing the zoom meeting add-on, it's not working. Entered my credentials, clicked login with Zoom button and get an error: {"status":false,"errorCode":4702,"errorMessage":"Invalid client_id: rodney.arbona@thegratefulagency.com","result":null}

This ID is used all the time and I tested it again prior to sending this message

Active Sync 16+ is now in force and Thunderbird has lost the sync via TBsync, so contacts and calendar syncing is now dead, unless TBsync is updated quickly, seems unlikely from reading their website. TB has advised that contacts and calendar are still on a dream list and no date for implementation is known. So TB is no longer a substitute for users wanting to escape Outlook. I am a long time user of TB and a donator, so why have you not pre-planned the inclusion of contacts and calendar sooner or even included TBsync into the code and kept its syncing ability uptodate.

TB with just email sync is no different to many email apps that come with laptop and tablets, so I may as well revert to using in my case Apple Mail.

started getting errors 2 hours ago. TbSynch into hotmail.com worked fine for years. On 140.9.0 esr.

Deleted tbsync account, created new app password, and then used Autodiscovery. No go. Used every possible combination offered by tbsync. Kept asking for another password. Dead in water. Filed a debug report. Also use every app password for years.

ActiveSync configuration is: my email account as description my email account (hotmail) eas.outlook.com use secure connection via https best available ActiveSynch version

Been using Tbird for quite a while. Currently using ver. 149.0.2 but problem started before updating. Used to have a tab called Cardbook which shows all my contacts and is synchronized with Google. Its gone and I don't see how to add it back in. Advise please and thanks.

Previous Colors add-on is apparently not him compatible with the most recent version of Thunderbird which installed itself in the last few days.

Does anyone know if it updates to that plug-in is anticipated?

If not, are there any similar add-ons available?

Thanks! Bill

Hi there,

I'm looking for a mail client, which works portable. Unluckily the Thunderbird editor is real bulls... crap and miles far away from all other mail clients nowadays. All modern mail programs can handle different font types, colors, they all support different font sizes like 8, 10, 11, 12, .... point text hight and having tools like copy formats (mostly a brush) for easy formating.

Some years ago I was using an addon, which added this feature in some parts. I don't understand, why those features are still missing. Today we have 2025 and the time of plain text mails is history since 10 years.

The rest of Thunderbird is really great, especially the portable version.

Questions: 1) When will Thunderbird provide powerful and state of the art formating stuff? 2) Is there an addon which adds powerful and state of the art formating stuff?

Cheers, Kay

Now the Message Header Customizer I was sent to about a week ago is no longer compatible with Thunderbird 149.0.

Is there another somewhere I can install?

Hi,

New to Thunderbird, trying to move away from Outlook on Windows.

For hotmail account, I was able to quickly set up account, read and send emails.

However, the calendar does not show up. It has an enable button which I clicked. But it appears to be a new calendar and it's empty

Search shows to install TbSync and Provider for Exchange ActiveSync. However, it's not available in add-ons/extension (shows as not compatbile with 149).

What else can I do? Don't want to give up this quickly.

Thanks

I'm using Thunderbird vesion 149.0 (64-bit) on Windows 11. Our Email host has a 100 emails per hour limit. We need to send out 400+ emails to subscribers and are having issues with using only Send Later and BCC being rejected by certain email domains and or going to spam. Is there a way to use both Mail Merge and Send Later to send 100 emails to the recipients {{Email}} {{Name}}, pause one hour send another 100?

I've developed a thunderbird add on. Now I need an extension ID I've read https://extensionworkshop.com/documentation/develop/extensions-and-the-add-on-id/

So how do I get an extension ID?

Hey, everyone!

I'm having a problem with my Google calendar on on of my Macs.

O have an M1 Mac Mini and I can access all of my calendars through that system. However, I also have a 2013 MacBook Air running Big Sur 11.17.10 and I can only access two out of my four calendars via Thunderbird 128.14.0esr on that machine.

The four calendars I have subscribed to are my personal calendar, US Holidays, Stardates (because I'm a Trek fan) and Phases of the Moon. On my MacBook, I can only access or view my personal and US Holidays calendars. The other two can't be found by Provider for Google Calendar.

Anyone know why this might be and how I ca fix it? Seems silly that an Provider wouldn't be able to access these calendars since the same version functions on both TB 128 and TB 140.

Thanks!

Since to old add-on enabling customization of the message header toolbar doesn't work now, where might get one the is compatible with Thunderbird?

Thanks, James

During recent update 148.0 (64-bit) google calendars are not shown either in "Events and Tasks/Calendar" or in "Today's Pane".

Subscribed calendars are still there, but nothing is shown in the days/weeks/months entries apart from the first calendar in the subscription list! Nothing else. And nothing in today's pane.

Reinstalled Thunderbird and reinstalled "Provider for google calendar" but nothing changed.

Thanks, GG

I seem to have purchased "Owl for Thunderbird," unwittingly paying 10 Euros ($11.93) while in England on 2.11.26. I don't want or need it and I want remove and cancel the add on. I also want to stop paying. How do I do that? Where is it hidden in Thunderbird?
