Example why question is being asked:

Three separate GMX email accounts, each with its own unique password, and NOW Application-specific password for Thunderbird. Aliases are not used or desired. Three different separate accounts that should each have its own outgoing server.

Worked fine until updates to Thunderbird and changes to the GMX server, and Application-specific passwords became a requirement to send and receive email.

Seems like updates to nearly every program and/or app that may be released with the intent to resolve an issue or include a new feature breaks something else. M$ is horrible with updates and labels nearly everything as a critical update so it gets pushed through even when updates are turned off or supposedly permanently disabled by a registry hack; Windows 11 being the absolute worse ever. Why I only have one computer with M$ while all the others are Linux. Problems all the time with M$ while Linux simply continues to work.

Regardless, can setup each GMX account but the default email account name must be used as the user name on the other two GMX accounts on the outgoing server in order to send email. Then the recipient sees the name for the default account rather than the name assigned to the other two accounts, and the Application-specific password for Thunderbird must be changed to that of the default. Then attempting to pull down email for the other two pop accounts comes to a halt, and email messages can only be viewed by going to the online account.

Two separate accounts for yahoo, two for gmail, and one for Charter work fine, each has its own name and outgoing server. Should be the same way for GMX but is not because Thunderbird requires one of the three GMX accounts is set to Default.

Appears by having a Default email account, users are not only restricted by the default account, but email that is sent is done so with he incorrect name, The purpose for three different emails is for email segregation and better management; personal correspondence, business related, and Internet stuff.

Instead of having a 'Default' email account, makes more sense to use a valid email to register Thunderbird after downloading and installing, and then using that email for Support, Boards, assistance, etc. The default email requirement causes too many frustrating unneeded issues that should not occur, along with wasted time, stress and grief. Computers were suppose to make our lives easier and allow us more time for the real world. Biggest lie told since the Bell Labs created the transistor.

Prime Video is unusable on Firefox since the latest two updates. The website freezes. Videos don't run. When I change the settings as has been suggested either the problem remains the same, with lack of loading, or videos are unavailable. I have read and done whatever has been mentioned in the past, so my only conclusion is that Firefox does not support Amazon Prime Video, as well as the Amazon website. The option I have now if I want to watch Prime Video is to run it on Safari. I look forward to Firefox fixing this issue. I just want it to work as it had done in prior updates. I don't need to continue to alter settings when it is obvious, to me at least, the problem doesn't lie with the settings, because none of them work. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I'm using Thunderbird 153.5.Oesr (64-bit) on a Linux machine (Zorin OS).

Most of my email addresses use POP, but with a new email address, I decided to use IMAP. When I'm disconnected from the internet, that particular email address keeps checking for new emails and saying it can't connect. I don't WANT it to connect. A message pops up every few seconds or so and is very annoying. I need to unplug my ethernet cable/adaptor periodically, since it seems to overheat, so keeping it connected to the internet continually won't work.

I have un-selected the boxes in Server Settings to check for messages. See the images below.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Folks,

Not sure if this extension is deprecated (last update was 6 years ago (Sep 17, 2020) 🤦🏽♂) but I wanted to know if this official extension is supposed to have sync support. Notepad is a simple little tool that is very valuable for its "basicness" (like stickies on mac, or note pads on windows). While the extension works locally, it seems not to be included in the suite of sync options currently offered under settings. At the moment, any notes taken on various computers using the same profile do not sync.

The advertised Thunderbird Migration from EWS to Graph DOES NOT WORK!

I have read the topic "Microsoft EWS to Graph Migration October 2026". I have followed the instructions meticulously MULTIPLE TIMES. Unfortunately for me, it DOES NOT WORK!! After deleting the EWS account, I proceed to create the new Graph account, but it fails (has failed) EACH AND EVERY TIME I've tried it. I finally had to give up, and restore/re-install/setup the Thunderbird EWS version. The failure reported on each failure was an "authentication failure".

My OS is macOS Tahoe 26.7.1; My Thunderbird version is 158.0. This is distressing! If there is an issue, I would expect T'bird to belay the update until the issues were fixed. If there is a "trick" required, I would appreciate someone sharing it with me. I'm aware that the causes of these issues is "Microsoft Incompetence", but AFAIK incompetence is not "contagious" - I don't understand T'bird/Mozilla releasing a fix with detailed procedures without testing.

EDIT: One other piece of information that may or may not be useful. The article "Microsoft EWS to Graph Migration October 2026" mentions a "Microsoft 365/Exchange Online email account". My account is an "Exchange Server" account; the Exchange server is hosted by Microsoft.

Thanks for any advice.

Best Regards, ~JM
