When I select an email which has an attachment (paperclip icon present) then the paperclip disappears and the email is presented without the facility to open the attachment.

This happens only on one folder that I have detected. It doesn't matter whether I select the email from the folder or by using the `search` facility and opening it from there.

If I use Properties>Repair folder, the paperclip re-appears (unless the email is still selected!) but then disappears again when that email is re-selected.

I have tried Properties>Repair and also deleting global-messages-db.sqlite. Also re-installed TB to ver. 137.0.1.

Running WIndows 11 64-bit.

I have been using the Thunderbird email client on my Mac for a long time to access my corporate Gmail account. (This is not a personal Gmail account, it is a corporate Gmail linked with Okta.)

In this corporate Gmail account, I do not have access to "App Password" settings or "Less Secure App Access" options. Everything was working fine until 25th April 25. On that day, I updated my Okta password, which also affected my Gmail account because Gmail is connected through Okta.

Since then, my Thunderbird email client has stopped working. It keeps asking me to allow Thunderbird to access Gmail, and even though I allowed it many times, the same pop-up keeps appearing. To troubleshoot the issue, I have tried the following steps:

• Reset my Okta password again to rule out any password issues. (I am able to log in to Gmail successfully with the new password and I can configure the same Gmail account with the Mac Mail app without any issue.)

• Upgraded the Thunderbird client to version 137.0.2.

• Cleared saved passwords and cleared cookies. (Note: "Accept cookies from sites" is enabled under Web Content settings.)

• Deleted the account from Thunderbird and tried to re-add it.

After this, I started getting the error: "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username, or password."

• While adding the account, I entered my name and email address, left the password field blank, unchecked "Remember Password", and filled in the configuration manually.

When I clicked on "Re-test", it detected the server settings correctly. But when I clicked on "Done", I got the same error again.

• Created a completely new profile in Thunderbird and tried again, but still faced the same issue:

"Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username, or password."

• Uninstalled Thunderbird completely and reinstalled it, but the issue still remains. (Please refer to the attached screenshot.)

• I tried the troubleshooting mode, which disables all the add-ons and themes, but the issue is still the same.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm not sure if this is relevant, but Gmail has made some changes (see the link https://support.google.com/mail/answer/7126229?visit_id=638814378228955739-1844270273&hl=en&rd=1). This might be causing the issue, though it was working fine until I reset my password on April 25th.

Hello,

I have been an Outlook user fro more than 20 years Now gmail will not accept my 'Less secure App" anymore!

I have Thunderbird configured the way I like And I like how it works, Thank you

However I miss a very useful shortcut I used with Outlook in the past

I could highlight files, and use the "Send to" "Mail Recipient" Shortcut... To opened a New Email, and attach the files to an automatically, with a list of the files in the Subject Line Saved a lot of steps (time)!

The trick was accomplished using the attached script

Please tell me if anyone has created something to have the same feature using Thunderbird

Thank you, Richard

Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because connecting to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.aol.com failed. The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections. Please verify that your Outgoing server (SMTP) settings are correct and try again. I have tried over and over and get this same message.

Thunderbird has worked great for me for years, up until a few days ago. Currently running 137.0.2 and am encountering two problems. I have several emails and this has not been a problem in the past.

Now, I start TB and all works fine for minutes or an hour or two and then some inboxes start to display "No message found". If I close TB and restart it all is good, but noit for long.

The other issue which pops up is

"The folder '[Gmail]/All Mail on XXXXXX@gmail.com' could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space, and that you have write privileges to the file system, then try again."

I have over 200GB free on the drive.

Thanks for any help solving this!

Hi,

I've got account created with a spelling error, and received some emails to that account. I've used Thunderbird and stored all emails locally - went to INBOX file and saw various emails content there. Then I've got another account created, and I want to import those emails received by the erroneous account into Thunderbird, so I would see them next to emails received by the corrected account. How I can do that? Some simple file copying of ImapMail doesn't seem to work.

Thanks,

Alex

I cannot get the "compose message" get closed. With every message the popup "Sending message" never closes. But the message is being send.

TB version 128.9.2esr, says Thunderbird is up to date.

I can receive emails, but can not send emails. I get this message "outgoing server stmp.mail.yahoo.com may be unavailable or refusing stmp connection" I just started getting this message..

I rarely stop thunderbird, running your 137.0.2 atm because debians 128 turned into a crash-o-matic while downoading my inbox from shentel.net several months ago. Your help menu sometimes doesn't display versions. But everytime I restart thunderbird, I have to setup my local folders and msg filters from scratch. I am subbed to quite a few lists, probably 30 or more and it usually takes around 70 msg filters to get it all working. Why can't there be continuity? Or, how can I recover my local folders and msdg filter?

Thank you. Cheers Gene, CET

My access to my E-mail provider (Sask Tel) is not reliable. Two times I can't get it. The next time (later in the day) and the next day I can't access anything. What's going on. I can get into my E-mail account at Sask Tel okay but Thunderbird won't make the connection to Sask Tel? /cac

I exported my profile to an external drive, then reset my Windows 11 PC. The resulting file is a zip file. When I import, the import starts, then stalls and gives an error. The error log is incomprehensible to me. How can I not lose my local folders and messages? I tried unzipping and importing that folder, but another error. I need help! Ideas? Thanks.

Image of the error attached.

I have been using Thunderbird with Gmail from Windows 11 for some time without a problem. Suddenly I can no longer send emails although I can receive them. I using the following settings:

Incoming: imap.gmail.com port 993 Security SSL/TLS Authentication OAuth2 Outgoing: smtp.gmail.com port 465 Security SSL/TLS Authentication OAuth2

I've also checked my gmail account 'Connections to Third Party Apps' and Thunderbird is there with all the appropriate allowances set.

Please Help Me Ross.
