I have a situation which I just can't understand how/why it's happening, but moreso, resolve.

I have an email account setup on my server which uses a filter to catch all messages that start with a specific word (let's say beagle) followed by any number of characters (numbers or letters which are permissible using email naming restrictions (eg 123, XYZ, 12398760, Xyate1238127) followed by the domain name, let's say beaglebiggins.co.uk (so beagle123@beaglebiggins.co.uk, beagleXYZ@beaglebiggins.co.uk, beagle12398760@beaglebiggins.co.uk, beagleXyate1238127@beaglebiggins.co.uk etc) and forward them all to a single account, we will use beagle@beaglebiggins.co.uk.

Got it so far? Good!

Now when an individual sends an email, we'll say jackosmith@simpleton.org, to any of the aliases, let's take beagle123@beaglebiggins.co.uk, the email is received fine, by beagle@beaglebiggins.co.uk. So far, so good.

Now in Thunderbird, and I'm presuming only Thunderbird as it works fine on webmail and Outlook for Android, when you click reply or reply-all this happens:

To: beagle123@beaglebiggins.co.uk From: jackosmith@simpleton.org

See what's wrong? No? Then I'll enlighten you...

When you click reply or reply-all, it should say:

To: jackosmith@simpleton.org From: beagle@beaglebiggins.co.uk

... the to and from fields are the opposite to what they should be.

I've seen people mention adding identities, but when you have an infinite number of emails, this is simply not possible.

Could someone tell me a magic trick or suggest an add-on that can resolve this for me please?

I do appreciate your assistance!

I already tried putting Thunderbird as a shortcut into the C:\Users\<myAccountName>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo (aka. shell:SendTo) folder. But when I use the "Sent to" menu and select Thunderbird, the file to be attached just gets openned by Windows as if I had double-clicked on it. Thunderbird does not even open a new message.

I also tried changing the call of the Thunderbird shortcut in the SendTo folder to: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe" -compose attachment= At least, then Thunderbird opens a new message. But it just writes the path\filename of the file to attach into the attachment section. When I then try to send the message, Thunderbird says it cannot access it under this path.

How are you doing this? Thanks!

Hi, since some days i have an issue with the connection to my email provider Strato. I noticed that, when i delete a message from my inbox, it also has been moved from my webmail version in Strato. Which gives issues, since the provider is connected to several devices and programs. For private and business reasons i use both Outlook and Thunderbird on different devices. So, it is not wanted that the mail i handle in Thunderbird (looks like) being mirrored in action at the Webmail from Strato. As said, it lóóks like this happens. Do you know of any setting or way this causes this? I used the above method for many years and never had any issues. But since an update in the 1st half of this year, also due to IMAP settings i expierence issues. This situation is unwanted and Thunderbird should not create changes in my webmail from the provider. Please let me know what you need from me to see how this can be solved. thanks and regards Rob

- i've added pictures which shows the following: image1 Thunderbird: marked message in Inbox image2 Outlook: marked (same) message in Inbox image3 Provider Strato webmail: marked same message in Inbox image4 Outlook: message will be deleted image5 Outlook: message is deleted and moved to Bin image6 Provider Strato: message still in Inbox after resfresh image7 Thunderbird: message will be deleted image8 Thunderbird: message is deleted and moved to Bin image9 Provider Strato: message is deleted after refresh image10 Provider Strato: message is moved from Inbox to Bin

Hello,

I have 50 folders in my email account in Thunderbird. They are actually folders for different accounts that are synced as IMAP folders for my account. I occasionally want to check the emails in those other folders, but I only want to be notified of emails that come into my main Inbox.

This is especially annoying on GNOME.

Any tips?

Thanks!

I am trying to reinstall latest version of Thunderbirds on my Windows 10/11 PC and reconnect with my email provider ie British Telecom email address @btconnect.com.

Service provider is Outlook.office365.com

Microsoft Imposed changes in recent weeks / months 1. OAuth2 authentication 2. Followed by Another Microsoft imposed server change from POP3 to IMAP 3. Old Outlook App mail reader now changed to New Outlook App mail reader, (don't know if this app is preventing Thunderbirds from working independently or not ? )

The latest download from Thunderbirds has automatically obtained the IMAP and SMTP server settings but I still cannot receive incoming mail or send . I have received some error dialogue messages from previous Thunderbird Installation attempts : "Authenticated but not Verified" Can you please help resolve this issue, it is driving me crackers.

Many thanks Graham Bardo Please continue to reply to the email address - messages can be received on my smartphone OK

I have 2 email addresses. A personal one (outlook.com) and a business one (live.com). I have set them both up on Thunderbird and they seem to be coming through without any problems.

BUT, I am now the only one who gets the live.com emails (through to my laptop via Thunderbird). Yesterday I alerted my husband that he had a couple of business emails to deal with which he does on his ipad via the mail app, and when he opened it, he had absolutely nothing there where there are normally quite a lot of emails there due to all of the mailing lists that our business has ended up on.

He is not very happy about losing access to his emails and wants me to get rid of Thunderbird which I really dont want to do. Has anyone got any idea why this is happening please? I have spent hours reading about things that say to tick a box that says to leave messages on the server, but I feel I have looked everywhere multiple times and just cant find this box. Thanks in advance.
