Thunderbird Community Forum

I have two email accounts. One is about 2% of my email sending and one is 98% of my email sending. One of them is the default choice when I create a new message to send. Guess which one is the default?

How the absolute F do I get TB to re-order these so that I am not sending so many messages from the wrong address?

Do I need to set up a completely different profile for TB and only launch into that when I am going to send from the lesser-used account? What the heck do I have to do?

See description in Subject line. Can't download new email from POP account since 10 a.m. EST January 14 2025 Tried recreating global-messages-db.sqlite file in Profile. Process worked but no change to email status. I can open old email and can send new. HINT--TBird no longer requires my PWD to read and send! Any suggestions for how to regain access to new email? Running Tbird 128.6.0 on Dell machine with Windows 11. Email continues to show up on my iPhone and via web mail access to my provider, Astound, as rcn.net From looking at the user forum, it seems that something may have gone haywire with email downloads when T-bird was updated to 128.6--is that the problem source? If so, how to fix that?

I have problems installing a new account : - First I get a message "Configuration trouvée ..." - Then I click on "Terminé" an I get a page "Connection with Google". - I click on "Next" and get a page "400 erreur", "Le serveur ne peut pas traiter la requête".

Thank you for your help !

Please, I need help. Bear with me while I describe the problem.

Let's say I have two email accounts set up, user1 and user2. Each one has been set up for quite some time and both have worked as expected for years. If I send an email from user1 a copy of the message drops in the sent folder of user1 and the reply comes back to user1, and if I send an email from user2 a copy of the message drops in the sent folder of user2 and the reply comes back to user2. Not any longer.

Now, if I send an email from user1, a copy of the message drops in the sent folder of user1 and the copy clearly says it was sent from user1's email. However, the reply comes back to user2's email inbox. The source of the message clearly shows it was sent TO: user2, Delivered-To: user2, Received: from line says it is for <user2>.

This has been going on since the latter part of last year.

Like the title says, I am getting some emails that move from Unified Inbox to an IMAP subfolder of account X, but remain visible in the UNIFIED Inbox.

First uploaded image shows 3 IMAP accounts as they appear in Thunderbird, second uploaded image shows how subfolders appear in IMAP account X (the third account in Thunderbird).

Mail is properly arriving in the 3rd account and shows up in both IMAP and Unified Inboxes, but only sometimes (and not with specific senders) can be moved into the 3rd account subfolder.

They are correctly removed from the IMAP Inbox but remain visible in the UNIFIED inbox and are found when I search in the UNIFIED inbox but not in the IMAP Inbox.

The messages persist in the UNIFIED Inbox through multiple restarts of Thunderbird and my PC, and some email continues to arrive in the 3rd account and cam be moved as expected, then another arrives that cannot be removed.

Strangely, if I delete the mail from the UNIFIED inbox, it is deleted both there and in the subfolder, so it appears something is making the display of the UNIFIED inbox keep a link to the new location of the email.

Bleah!

Any body see anything similar? I read several older threads about move problems, but this seems different.

Thanks!

Thunderbird BETA 135.0b1 (64-bit) Probably not very interesting but: Windows 11 Home; 23H2; OS build 22631.4751; Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22700.1055.0 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1195G7 @ 2.90GHz 2.92 16.0 GB (15.7 GB usable) 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

After new installation of windows 11 and Thunderbird at 15.Jan 2025 the connetion to my e-mail accounts cannot be opened by saved passwords - every time I open Thunderbird I have to tip in my passwords. Very uncomfortably.

Hello, I want to change first day of the week to Monday (who on earth would have Sunday as the fist work day??) Problem: All instructions online are useless since there is no "Options" / no "Preferences" / in Settings there is no "Calendar" or anything referring to Calendar. Under Settings there is only General, Composition, Privacy & Security, Chat and Export for Mobile. Nothing for Calendar. Also in Calendar view ... nothing to change days order. All online articles seem to be outdated (2021 and older)and don't apply anymore. Someone advised the reboot Thunderbird ... ? How to do that? Just close it down at the X?

Please help.

Thanks

Depuis 2 jours, je ne peux plus envoyer de courriel avec ma messagerie Thunderbird. J'ai tout essayé, rien ne fonctionne !!! je me suis créé un compte Gmail et la, tout va bien. Je vais donc quitter thunderbird et par la même occasion firefox. Merci mozilla 111

Mail is downloading to Thunderbird, but is not going to inbox. I can only see it if I search in the universal search tool, asking to see all the mail from today's date. I can't figure out where it's going! This is a new issue, after thousands of successful downloads from my domain.

I changed from POP3 to IMAP and when I reconfigured TB 78.14.0 all seemed good until I tried to call up messages in subfolders of the INBOX. The folders and content are still on the server and it seemed impossible to subscribe to the INBOX in TB. The INBOX itself still functions with new mail and older content showing. The locations of the subfolders had an IMAP mention in the directories that was additional/instead of simply ....'mail.xxxx.xx' but changing to IMAP instead of 'Mail' in the server settings was futile. A deep dive into mozilla resources led to mention of leaving empty the IMAP server directory field (Server Settings>Advanced), and putting "INBOX." (with the following period critical, but quotes not) in the personal namespace field. See: https://kb.mozillazine.org/IMAP:_advanced_account_configuration This worked! However under 'personal namespace' it reverted to double quotation marks ("").

I believe that since the update, I have not been able to access my emails or send emails. The password is not being recognized and I cannot receive or respond to my business emails.

My wife's computer has problems printing from Thunderbird. Trying to print produces a message that says, "Your printer has experienced an unexpected configuration problem. 0x800706ba".

I thought the problem was related to her old printer, a Brother black-and-white laser printer, so I bought a new Epson ET-2800 series color printer, but the same message appears.

I have found a workaround. If I go to Settings in Thunderbird, clear the cache, and restart the computer, it will print on the next try, but later the same error message will appear on attempts to print. I have selected the "Clear cache at shutdown" option in Settings, but that doesn't help. The cache still has to be cleared manually.

I can print a test page with no problem, and I can print from other applications, so I assume that the difficulty is related to something in Thunderbird.

I might add that I use Thunderbird on my computer. Fortunately that problem has not arisen on it.

Suggestions for solving this problem will be appreciated.

Receiving the above message when trying to get emails. Am able to receive emails on cell phone which is not with Thunderbird email. Made no changes to Thunderbird. Started about 2 days ago. Spoke with our email provider and they say it is specific to our Thunderbird email.

Entire message reads - " The certificate for pop.starpower.net is not valid for that server. Someone could be trying to impersonate the server and you should not continue "

                                                                                                          Thanks,

A number of times during the day, when I'm on my email account a window interrupts me to verify my account ( photo attached) After I follow all prompts repeatedly over many times a strange series of slashes cross the top of my window and it asks me if I want to go back to my previous last email. I can not proceed with my activity. So I close the computer and wait a couple of hours and try to start up, BUT my password box is filled with dots. I am unable to continue. So I wait longer. When I do get access it all starts over again. Is this you or google doing this? I have been with Thunderbird for years, and I hate the idea of having to go through Google to use you. Yesterday it locked me out of my computer in total. Need help!

I have email through AT&T, hosted by Yahoo, and have synched my calendar for years. It has now stopped enabling and updating. In calendar screen, grey ENABLE button now shows. Click it and I see a quick flash of items and instantly disappear. Nothing happens.

Select properties and the enable box is not checked. I can check it, click OK and again it won't enable. On my to do lists for this account, same issue. Click enable, it flashes the items and then they disappear. Won't stay enabled.

Contacts still sync so appears to be a caldav issue.

Was working fine, but stopped a few weeks ago. I can't find a solution. Help please.
