When in troubleshoot mode it seems to work better but I do not see anything to disable. After I log into this account without thunderbird all the missing emails come over.

Does troubleshoot mode affect just the one account or all my accounts. If just the one I can leave it in that mode permanently unless you think that will cause a problem. This is only been happening recently to the best of my knowledge unless I was unaware of the problem .

The account in question is optonline.net

How do I make (set) TB to open a new window NOT a tab? It continues to open tabs which I don't like nor see, thereby I close TB not the tab I didn't notice (nor use)

Every time I start TB on Windows 10, I am seeing "Compact folders". The prompt is offering to save around 310MB, but no matter how many times I select COMPACT NOW, I still get the prompt next time.

I have tried:

 - compact all folders in all accounts
 - Repair Folders in all accounts, all folders (which took a while! I have 10 email accounts)
 - deleting global-messages-db.sqlite

Any ideas on how to resolve this would be appreciated. Email is still working fine, I am just trying to get rid of the never ending prompt.

TB version 147.0 (yes, I know, I know. But I have made it look exactly how I want, so I avoid regular updates unless absolutely necessary.) Thanks.

Hi There,

I am trying to add my new email address to the thunderbird app for Windows and running into issues syncing it through IMAP settings. The process seems to go smoothly until it gets to the point where I have to enter my email password. After I enter my password and hit "continue" I get the following error message:

Component returned failure code: 0x804b000a (NS_ERROR_MALFORMED_URI) [nsIIOService.newURI]

I have attached the screen shots of my process, as well as the IMAP and SMTP settings from my email provider.

Any help I can get in troubleshooting this error would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Tim

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.

After changing the password in a browser (Mac), only emails from August 9th repopulate (5 of them from different senders). There were about 25 of each email piled up and that is why I changed the password. I deleted all of them, changed password again a week later; but only those 5 same August 9th emails populate again. When I updated and restarted third after changing yahoo password, it took me to the yahoo webpage asking permission for third to access mail and I agreed. Not sure if there is some setting to change in Tbird?

I'm having a lot of trouble with moving my years of POP mail accounts to a new computer using IMAP.

I'm starting with my mail AOL account but Synchronizing TB the web account folder structure just isn't working. My initial installation went fine, but I can't seem to modify the folders and use message filters.

The initial installation basically duplicated the web account folder structure automatically, but making modifications isn't working.

I can't even delete test folders I set up on TB. I select them and try to delete, but they never are deleted. On IMAP accounts, how does the sync work?

My pop email has stopped collecting email, so I guess there is no turning back at this point.

Thunderbird has always had a problem with filtering all incoming mail to the correct folders. Sometimes it does it correctly and sometimes it doesn't. But this morning it is dumping all my incoming mail into a folder that isn't the Incoming mail folder.

How do I get it to put the incoming mail in the Incoming folder?

I've been using Thunderbird version 155.0 with only a few issues (reported in other posts).

To investigate one of the issues I've had to create a new profile for testing. I've managed to set everything up except for my default font for outgoing emails. If I send an email with say, four lines of text, I can format each line to be a different font and the received email reflects the different fonts for each line.

But Thunderbird isn't remembering the last selected font. So if I send a second email (without re-selecting any font) the recipient receives it in some naff mono-spaced font. I guess there's somewhere where I can set up the default font for my outgoing emails but I haven't managed to find it yet. Can anyone help?

After many years of using Thunderbird I am now considering ditching it. I am continually getting the Authorisation Failure message when trying to open Thunderbird. Why does this keep happening? It does not happen on my Android devices, just on Windows 11. I have tried deleting all three gmail accounts and re entering them. All is fine until I close down Thunderbird and then open it again. I run Norton 360 and have tried taking off Norton email security, but that didn't work. Any ideas, please?

Inbound emails are going to Trash instead of Inbox.

No changes have been made. How can I check settings to find a solution? I see nothing related to this issue. Thanks for any help.

The edit tool bar to set bold, text color and text sze under the "+ new message" is missing. How do I fix?

Question from Jack Anema. , EMail [redacted email from public]

Moved my thunderbird account to my new lap top using %appdata% . All has transferred but it is not letting me put in the passwords for imap and smtp. I checked on the old laptop, and I do have them correct. Any help would be lovely. I can access my gmail account online if I have to.

I can't find my Junk folder on any of my three Thunderbird email accounts. I tried everything from the Thunderbird and Internet search pages but nothing brings up my Junk accounts.

My problem is that all emails to one of my email accounts goes to the Trash folder, Every time now starting this morning, The two other email accounts work properly.

Please help. Thanks.

I use IMAP and I've allowed remote content from particular sources (not all). Sometimes I work in offline mode. When I do, I accept Thunderbird's offer to "download messages for offline use before going offline." This appears to download my IMAP server's messages, but not the (allowed) remote content. As a workaround, I've found that opening each message in my inbox before going offline is sufficient to cache the remote content, but that's tedious. It'd be nice if the "download messages for offline use" would cache the (allowed) remote content when it downloads the messages.

So I think this is a feature request unless I'm doing something wrong. And if this is the wrong place to submit feature requests, please let me know. Thank you!

When I used to click on Minimize, it would minimize to the system area down by the clock. Now it minimizes to the taskbar, something that it's never done before. When I clicked the X, it would close out the program completely. Now it minimizes the program down to the system area. Is this a bug, or is this the way you people do things now?
