Hi, The drop down for open Email messages that is displayed horizontally across the top of the screen just contains blank boxes. The boxes used to display the related open email message when you click on it. Now the empty box just displays a blank page. Any new messages I open today, display correctly in a new box and open up correctly when I click on the box. All previous open messages before today appear to have lost their link. Is there any possibility of restoring the link to older messages? Thanks for any help you can provide!

FYI - I have not made any software or hardware changes in the past 6 months.

error messages saying: "Error on account rewrite@shaw.ca. The account rewrite@shaw.ca is being processed. Please wait until processing is complete to get messages."

Hi!

Under the upper right hand Menu, where do I find the Attachments submenu, with the choice between Save to Disk and Open in TB? Is it under Settings or under Add-ons?

Thank you very much in advance for all advice!

Best, Stefan

I hope that not everyone receives 5 or more phishing emails a day like I do. The phishermen have learned that if they put a lengthy enough name in front of the email address that said address won't be seen unless the email is opened. The fishy looking email address is of course is the first tip off that the message is phishing. Some however manage to use a plausible tag in front of the @ and somehow use a legitimate xxxx.com after the @. I received two of that type this week from a phony Uber account. I've forwarded them to Uber.

The current Tbird release does not allow the user to add the "From" column to the list displays. That would be useful. Anything more that you could come up with would be be appreciated by many. BTW I am using the DKIM extension, and so far it seems to be helpful.

My wife and I are in our late 70s and both had careers in data processing. We are aware and careful. In another 10 years, who knows.

I have a new Thunderbird installation - IMAP account. I cannot see invite emails (containing .ics) in my inbox. I can see them on another Thunderbird installation, I can see them on outlook, I can see them when I go to full search, but they don't show in the inbox.

When received, I hear the audio alert - but the number of new emails messages does not increase, nor does it display.

(It's not in junk, I haven't deleted it - the main search shows it's in the inbox folder, but it's not visible on the inbox tab).

Hello,

I added a new Outlook account to Thunderbird and it is not showing in Thunderbird. I added the new email account to Outlook client, and the email is comign in fine. So, its a Thunderbird issue.

I used the default IMAP settings when addding the new account.

I gave it the required/requested "permissions" as promoted.

This use to work fine in Thunderbird, as I have added several Outloook acounts prior which are coming in fine, but it seems it is no longer working now.

Hi,

Thunderbird tries to access many websites, even when it is in the background and apparently idle. In the last two or three weeks, it has tried to access about sixty websites that Little Snitch (Macintosh) reports by IP address, not domain name. Without knowing the domain name, I cannot tell what Thunderbird is trying to do, so I do not allow it to access those sites.

I know that Firefox does this also and that Thunderbird is built on Firefox.

In the Mullvad browser, built on Tor's browser, which is, in turn, built on Firefox, this problem is resolved by setting an option to use the user's default DNS resolver. I cannot find such an option in Thunderbird. Might there be one in a configuration setting? Or some other way to deal with this matter?

Thanks for any help.

I have a calendar with a CalDAV connection through my hosting service. The CalDAV connection is fine, because it is working properly on my phone. However, when I try and add the calendar in Thunderbird I run into problems.

I have managed to create the calendar and Thunderbird did accept my login credentials. The calendar appears in the calendar menu, but it is not enabled. When I try and enable it, it immediately jumps back to "not enabled". What could be causing this, and how do I get around it?

Thank you sincerely, Rasmus

I have three email account in Thunderbird, two are AT&T (bellsouth.net) and one is gmail. One of the bellsouth emails is VERY slow, reading and deleting, but the other two emails run very good, no problems at all with reading or deleting. I have read through many many similar but not quite the same questions in the forum and I have tried every one of the suggested things to try to fix this but it is still a problem. Any new suggestions?

I receive this message when I click get messages. I only get 1 or 2 emails at a time. Not sure what the message means. I do have plenty of disk space.

Unable to write the email to the mailbox. Make sure the file system allows you write privileges and you have enough disk space to copy the mailbox.

Thanks

I have pop accounts set up for my business. Ever since the last Thunderbird upgrade, I've been seeing messages download and then immediately disappear. Some of these have been critical things that I needed to get, and I've had to ask the sender to repeatedly re-send them before they stopped disappearing as soon as they came in. They have been from a wide variety of sources, including the US government, so it's not a problem with the sender. I've used Thunderbird for all the years that it's been available, without any problems ever, until this began. Please fix it, whatever it is!

The global database got corrupted so I rebuilt it. Now when I delete a file it does not show up in trash. Occasionally I accidentally delete files, so I would like this to work; trash folder shows "no message found".

i can not receive mails, since the update to 128.5.2ESR not on imap.strato.com not on imap.gmail.com not on mail.yourhosting.com

just since today after the update. sending emails seems to work.

I did NOT change anything in the accounts.

How to solve????

Thank you.

A few days ago my wife clicked to open an email and the whole Thunderbird page changed so that it is now almost un-usable. I tried using the program that allows you to recover to a previous day with no luck. In frustration I saved the email file from profiles, uninstalled Thunderbird, rebooted then downloaded a new copy of the software and installed it, no luck, it opened with all my emails in the same almost un-usable configuration I can still receive email from a webmail program but it is slow and frustrating. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Bruce

I have just raise a question here - missing folders after xubuntu upgrade, but I accidentally put "xubuntu 22.04" in the headline instead of 24.4. Can't find my way back to edit the question. Profuse apologies.
