Hi! I am trying to rid myself of Microsoft Outlook and am transitioning to Thunderbird. I will speak in Outlook terms... I want to do the same with Thunderbird. My Outlook activity is saved on the server and on my hard drive as .pst files. I periodically do a backup up by simply copying them to another drive. I would like to do the same in Thunderbird but don't know what the file name, extention or folder name/locaton is.

What is the file name and extention for the Thunderbird version of these files and what folder on my hard drive can I find them? A search on C:/ for .mbox returns nothing. Your insights will be welcomed!

I need to find appointments in my Calendar...however, when I open the "Find", it only allows messages and contact searches. Is there another way to search the Calendar?

Thank you, Nancy

Suddenly messages have disappeared from all folders; all I see is No messages found.

I tried Repair Folder. It appeared to work, it ran for several minutes on my Inbox, but that didn't help.

I discovered that if I run in Troubleshoot mode that all messages appear, but when I close Thunderbird and relaunch, which opens without Troubleshoot mode, that all messages have again disappeared.

I'm running 128.11.0esr with windows 10.

Hiya. I had a message that I accidentally deleted by force-of-habit. I found it in Bin and selected Move To/Favourites/Inbox. It's now disappeared and doesn't show in the search. It's not present on my Gmail account either. Is there any way to get this back?

When I delete an email message, they do not go to Trash, they just disappear. I have used TB for several years but this started happening just recently. I can right click on a message and Send To to Trash, or drag and drop, and both those and work. I have went through all the settings I can find, and don't see any obvious problems. I did find a "fix" from 2023 that involved deleting the Smart Mailboxes folder and restarting TB but that that didn't help.

I just pressed Enter and the whole topic disappeared. Why? Why do you do this? This is my whole subject: Why do you do your things automatically, when I try to do manually? You have a great EMAiL-software: Thunderbird. Why do you want to screw it and the user? Computer usage should be reliable. I have lost so many EMAiLs since you broke the EMAiL paths logic with threads. Why? Why did you want to make it complicated? I had a good filing system with Thurnerbird for years. Why did you have to break it? Why didn't you even make it optional, but mandatory?

How can I get the old EMAiL-filing back without the Thread-Paths? Please help!

I didn't ask this immediately, but during the years, I have lost so many important EMAiLs (again today), that now I ask.

After working fine for years, Thunderbird stopped receiving email from my POP accounts a month ago and I haven't been able to get it to work since. After weeks of experimentation and frustration, the only way I can get TB to download POP mail is to install and run it in Windows Safe Mode with networking. However, once installed in Windows Safe Mode, TB run in Windows normal mode will successfully send messages from each account.

It would take pages to describe everything I've tried, so I won't. The results of all the tweaking and updates is the system specs below.

I'm at a total loss as to what I've missed or where to look next. I would appreciate any help.

Thunderbird 128.5.2esr (32-bit) Odd problem in that just one folder was being identified as not being able to be compacted because of Disk Space....not true, plenty of space as I keep it regularly cleaned. I can clear the issue by making another folder of a different name, copying all messages to that folder then running COMPACT on the new folder and nothing is amiss. Run it on the original problem folder and no issues. Delete the original folder and create another with the same old name and transfer the messages to the now new originally named folder. Delete the TEMP folder. Then run a COMPACT on the problem folder and no issues.

Then run compact on the whole message tree and sure enough the COMPACT issue has now moved to a different folder. I suspect you could chase this thing till the cows come home but won't resolve, just moves it from folder to folder.

Now I could just kill Thunderbird and reinstall but this is intriging. Not sure if that would help. Ran TROUBLESHOOT MODE clean with out the only extension I use and no change. Stumped.

Thanks!

I used ImportExportTools NG to export messages from one profile and import to another.

I tried to export only selected messages from my one of my local folders (it seemed an option, but IET NG is not intuitive).

Whatever, the import process has created a sub-folder in the local folder of the same name, and there is a huge redundancy (duplication) resulting.

My question: how can I merge the sub-folder into the parent, when dragging and dropping is not allowed?

So....shame on me, but I have some 19,870 emails dating back a couple of years of which I've done nothing about until now after having other TB email issue. Now it's time to tackle this problem. I've been clicking on my mouse like a robot just going down the line getting rid of all these old emails that at this point mean nothing to me. Obviously after a couple of years they're meaningless and anything important I might've needed, I've dealt with. Is there a way to delete the rest of these unwanted-unneeded emails other than just clicking away as I've been doing. Also....this has caused a problem with compacting my Inbox emails. Any help out there would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you, Michael....

I'm not asking a question now; I already found the answer. I'm contributing an answer in case others run into the same problem I did. The archive function in Thunderbird was running painfully slowly. I remembered it as being fast, moving from local folders (from POP) to local archive folders quickly, but lately it had been slow, like seconds per message. And I had thousands of messages to deal with. This is on Windows 10 Pro.

The fix turns out to be in Settings -> Windows Security -> Virus and Threat Protections. It has an option "Cloud-delivered protection", which "Works best with automatic sample submission turned on". Now frankly that sounds like a major-league security hole to me, sending old private messages to Microsoft! Turning them both off fixed the problem. Now archive is entirely local and isn't held up by Windows mucking into the system and trying to make copies of private mail and send them to the mothership before moving them. I don't know how Windows "Threat protection" broke into the internal operation of T'bird but that was an easy fix once I found it, and the archive function is very fast, even moving thousands of messages at a time.

Hi I've recently started using Thunderbird & have made several customisations & created a userChrome.css file. I find the yellow star on a starred message a bit to easy to miss. Is there a way to either make the yellow star another colour or to make the starred message in the message list another colour (like Outlook does)? The only info I have found so far makes all stars change colour - starred on unstarred. That defeats my objective. Thanks, Tony

I'm having an issue with some of my filters not working. I've checked the several times and they should be set up correctly, but, for some reason, they don't perform their respective actions, even when I press "Run Now".

Also: I recently changed the sorting of my e-mails to be threaded by chain. I like to have all of my most recent e-mails show up at the top, but, within each thread, the most recent e-mail shows at the bottom (see the supposedly-attached image). Is there a way to flip this?

Thank you in advance.

When I print my emails and sometime view them I appear to have multiple lines of programme text (see attached) The text is also very small. Being new to Thunderbird can you tell me what settings I have wrong.

Thunderbird has eliminated a primary SENT category and I can't find how to get it and other primary folders within my provider, Spectrum Internet/Email, email website/webpage(s). How do I get them back? I do NOT want to have to uninstall Thunderbird, clear my cache, then reinstall it and set it all up from the get-go. Any real answers for me?

Thanks

Hi, After my installation of T-bird on my W10 laptop with my Yahoo mail account, it downloaded my yahoo inbox, but not all my other folders. I used POP because I wanted to be able to manage all my mail folders offline. Can somebody tell me how I can get my other yahoo-mail folders into T-bird (preferably on my local computer for offline access)? Thanks a lot for any help! Pat

I installed the Thunderbird email client today. The only way to do that was to link it to my gmail account. I did not want that but I had no choice. What I wanted was a Thunderbird email address. How can I get that? Is there even such a thing?
