Форум спільноти Thunderbird

Goedendag, Ben zelf nieuw in Thunderbird. Ik heb diverse mailaccounts en ik zie een Verzamelmap staan met daarin ondermeer de Concepten en Verzonden mails. Deze zie ik liever per account weergegeven worden, kan dat?

Ik gebruik IMAP op al mijn accounts, na het instellen zie ik per account wel al mijn ontvangen mails staan, maar niet de verzonden mails? Ik denk dat dit inherent is aan mijn vraag, maar hoe kan ik dat dus oplossen?

Tot slot zie ik Mail-conversaties staan van berichten en hun antwoorden, maar dat wil ik helemaal niet. Ik wil gewoon alle berichten op datum & tijd gesorteerd zien staan. Hoe krijg ik er die conversaties uit?

Dank voor alle hulp alvast!

Groet, Pico

My recollection is that prior to a recent automatic update to Thunderbird 140.12.1esr (64-bit) when I had a message composition window open, there were "SEND" button and possibly a "SEND LATER" button (to the left of the addressee and cc addresses in addition to the keyboard shortcuts (CTRL ENTER and CTRL SHIFT ENTER).

Following the update, there is no longer anything to the left of the addressee information. I have checked the toolbar menus, and there do not appear to be any button options. I can still send messages, but the lack of the buttons is a hindrance.

Hi David This is the last attempt I did but it failed. Enclosed is the screen shot you have asked for. Keep in mind my WIN 10 has 64 Bit but the last update from Thunderbird was 32 Bit

TB suddenly moves messages from inbox to trash automatically without any interaction. Search through the forrum shows that it has been asked for already, see https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1588804, similar postings can also be found with you search engine.

As described in other postings, the messages are moved from Inbox to trash. When moving them back manually from trash to inbox, they are moved to trash again immediately.

• it happens for the default account only,
• there're no filters at all in TB,
• junk detection is disabled,
• Settings->General Storage is all disabled,
• (account)->Settings->Server Settings has checked "move deleted messages to trash",
• (account)->Settings->Storage is all disabled,
• Inbox->Properties "Repair folder" does not help,
• Inbox->Properties "rules is set to "use account settings" (and greyd out "do not delete messages"),
• exactly same behaviour when starting TB in save mode,
• manually deleting all *.msf files (for inbox) does not help,
• manually deleting xulstore.json does not help,

Additional notes, which are not related to the problem, IMHO:

• IMAP on port 993,
• no other clients anywhere are connected to that account,
• TB configured for more than 10 accounts, more than 500 folders and sub-folders,
• host with > 16GB RAM, TB uses 3GB virt,
• problem observerd in older TB also, at least 13x.x

I'd be happy to debug/trace the problem if someone can give me detailled insructions how to start TB with debugging. Please feel free to ask for about:config settings as they are non-ambiguous and language independent ;-)

Thanks.

I have thunderbird installed on my PC, and my main email account is a gmail account. I download from gmail using POP protocol (SSL/TLS connection security, OAuth2 authentication). I have been using these settings for a long time (15 years?).

This afternoon, thunderbird stopped downloading my messages. No error messages : just "no new messages to download".

I can see (by logging directly into my gmail account using my browser) that there are new messages on the server. They're not spam or junk, and they're not getting downloaded into my (local) spam folder. They're not getting downloaded at all.

I still have room on the google server (it's about 87% full), and room on the hard drive on my computer (about 3 GB).

On Saturday morning 27 June 2026 I tried to login my Orcon email account via Thunderbird (which I have been using for a long time). But my login didn't work, I got a message saying "login to POP3.orcon.net.nz with username habitation failed." On 30th June 2026 I reported the problem to Orcon.

Orcon gave me the following settings for Thunderbird. I have done that and even made a new account: Incoming Server Type: IMAP Mail Server: imap.orcon.net.nz Port: 143 SSL: Off Authentication: On (username and password required)

Outgoing SMTP Server: Mail Server: smtp.orcon.net.nz Port: 25 SSL: Off Authentication: Off

Since then I have spent many hours and going around in circles with Orcon's Technical Support to resolve this, but no luck. They blame Thunderbird. I used Thunderbird Troubleshoot Mode. The message that comes up reads: login to server mail orcon.net.nz with username habitation failed. Please can you check that your server settings above are correct? And if there is a bug? Irma

I just added two new email accounts to my Thunderbird installation, which has been working with three accounts flawlessly for years. All my accounts are POP/SMTP.

Both the new emails are Google Workspace accounts for an in-home business. One uses (my) name@(domain) as the account name, the other uses info@(domain). The account using my name works fine, sending and receiving. But the info@ account does not display a Sent folder, and will not send messages. It looks as if it does, but they never show up. I checked the Account Settings and the two new ones are set up identically, and just like the other accounts that have been working just fine. Any ideas? Many thanks in advance.

win10/tbird v140.12.1.esr wont d/l from yahoo. logon appears ok but the d/l bar starts & then just times out. This just started 3-4 days ago. gmail & fastmail ok.

"connection to server pop.mail.yahoo.com timed out" I have been getting this message in the activity manager for about a week now. When I click get messages, it says down loading message 1 of 1, but nothing happens.

Hello all,

Following some changes in our organization, we had to create new email addresses with new domain names. We have kept the old ones until now but we decided to erase some that had not received emails for a while.

Since we did that, we have encountered some problems regarding one of our computer. We can't send emails because Thunderbird is asking us for the passwords of the deleted email accounts. When we click on cancel, a window opens saying (roughly translated from French): "The email could not be sent. Authentification to the SMTP (outgoing server) failed. Please verify your password and the "Authentification method" in the "Account parameters | Outgoing server (SMTP) menu." The email was sent from a completely different email address than the one linked to the email account.

We deleted the accounts and cannot access this menu. Has it happened to anyone? What would be the solution to be able to send email again on that computer?

Many thanks for all your help, Please ask me if you need anymore information All the best

I use Thunderbird v 140.12.1esr to manage email on my email account X@yahoo.co.uk. For the past 2 days sent emails fail with error message "sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because connecting to outgoing server SMTP.mail.yahoo.com failed. The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections. I have not changed my smtp settings - they are Server = smtp.mail.yahoo.com; Port = 465; user name = X@yahoo.co.uk; Authentication method = OAuth2; Conneciton Security = SSL/TLS

(PII redacted by moderator)

I'm running Thundebird for Linux Mint mint-001 - 1.0 (140.12.1esr 64-bit) on Linux Mint Mate v22.3

Thunderbird has one account

I have set up a simple filter. It is the only filter set up. The test is 'from matches quora'. It is set to run manually and on download, It is enabled.

The filter works well when run manually but not on download.

What it is missing, or what do I check next please? TIA

Hi,

My godaddy webmail setting which I configured on thunderbird mail for my Mac Os is not going through anymore.

It was workng absolutely fine until for over a year and now since last week I do not know what is the issue.

Incomin mails work fine, I can see the sent mail if I have sent the mail from Godaddy Webmail, but the email send from thunderbird mail doesnt work. Checked all the settings. also tried switching Port from 465 to 587

Please help !!!

thanks!

I get hundreds of emails a day, so setting an alert for incoming mail is not practical. Is there any way to set an alert for specific senders whose emails need to be res[ponded to promptly? I am not at the computer all the time.

I am plagued by demands that I allow Thunderbird to "permanently delete all" my email from Gmail. Why would I want to do that????? I'd like for Thunderbird to be able to compose, send, receive, and delete emails in Gmail, but not permanently delete all of my email there. What can I do?

Goodday,

Unfortunately I could not add a screenshot to this message. Under my account [redacted]@zonnet.nl there is a "Postvak IN". This means inbox. In this inbox should new mails appear. Right now there comes nothing in it. However, two lines below there is suddenly another "Postvak IN 22". New emails appear here now. I already tried to drag this inbox into the inbox under [redacted]@zonnet.nl but that doesn't work.

New emails now appear with a yellow bar: The text in the yellow bar at the bottom says: (I translated)

No unique identity was found matching the sender address. The message will be sent using the sender field and the settings of the identity Martin Belonje <[redacted]@zonnet.nl>.

To my opinion this has to do with the fact that the inbox has moved from its original position.

I hope you can help me out.

Hello,

I'm currently using the thunderbird client to open a zoho mail account. I've set several filters (around 40) so that incoming emails are automatically redirected to the appropiate folder. If I click on the download/refresh icon (the little cloud with the downwards arrow), new email isn't received. On the bottom, a small message appears ("No new messages on the server" or something like this). You may think that that is precisely because I don't have new emails but if directly go into any of the folders and once again click on the download/refresh icon all of the emails that were supposed to go into that particular folder appear all at once (even mails that are 2 or 3 days old). Now every day I have to go into all of my 40 folders and click on the refresh button.

I look forward to your help. Kind Regards.
