An old forum describes how to sync calendars in Thunderbird. Here is an easy solution - In the left-hand pane of your calendar page, right-click your calendar name/ export calendar - into a removable device. In your other computer - Tools/import/ import from a file/ choose to import calendar - easy!

Going through my inbox and deleting outdated emails, I accidentally deleted an email I received from PayPal today and can't find it anywhere. Not too hot on all things computer-related, so any help would be appreciated

I want to continue using TB but a few things really make me despair of it. But there may be workarounds. If I have a question, when did these people last send me an email, or have any of these people responded to something, there seems to be no way to get to a list. But. I found a way to do it. Using sqlite3.

I have been wanting a CLI for interacting with TB for a while. You know, that folder I have with 10k+ emails and if I click on it, the UI spins forever. What is even in that?

Now I can do this: 1) copy the global-messages-db.sqlite from the active profile to another place 2) run: sqlite3 global-messages-db.sqlite 3) ```sqlite> select m1.c3author, min(m2.date), max(m2.date) from messagesText_content m1, messages m2 where m1.docid = m2.id group by m1.c3author order by m1.c3author; ... ray kiddy <ray@ganymede.org>|1732124816000000|1759268233000000 ruby29@something undefined|1756740716000000|1756740716000000 salvatore@someother undefined|1758733831000000|1758733831000000 support@linode.com undefined|1755126295000000|1755126295000000 ... ```

Holy sender dates, Batman! Now I can see the earliest and latest email sent by any user. Now I can filter, sort, and see every person who sent me something in a time period. And whether it was 1 email or 1000, I just see the names and not an enormous amount of other information.

So, is this the only way to get this? Or the best? I have no idea. Please let me know if there is a better way, perhaps one using TB itself. It would be nice.

In the meantime, I will be wrapping this in a python call, doing some formatting and it will work and I can stop worrying about not seeing their email.

I have lost the indicator in the folder pane showing which folder I'm in. It used to have a small color tab in the folder pane on the left hand side. Indicating that the folder was selected. Any ideas to get it back? Thunderbird 140.3.1esr (64-bit)

MacOS 26.0.1 Tahoe Firefox 143.0.4 (aarch64)

There is a white border around the webpage content in the browser (screenshot attached). This border exists even in troubleshooting mode, with all extensions disabled, regardless of toolbars or theme, etc. The only place it does not appear is the about: pages (screenshot attached). I've uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox and updated MacOS. The issue disappears when I quit and reopen Firefox but reappears when I resize the window. Is there some obvious checkbox setting I'm missing? I cannot figure out what is causing this. Thanks for any help.

I have just installed Thunderbird on Windows 11 and it has two very annoying new habits. When I click on an email it opens it instead of giving me a preview. And when I move an email to another folder it also opens that folder. Neither happened on the old computer so how can I get back to the way it used to be?

My problem has escalated. Before, I wasn't able to fix the constant request for password on that account. Now, after deleting the account on my laptop, I can't even add it back. Error message says "incoming server already exists." I do have another email account with the same domain, but this is not a problem on my desktop computer, only on my laptop. (It used to work find on my laptop, too, but it stopped receiving emails on 8/20/)

I have a message that is still listed after being deleted. When I highlight the messages listed above it and below it, I can see their contents with no problem. However, when I click on the "ghost message" listing in between them, I will see the contents of the last message viewed, not the contents of the ghost message that is highlighted.

Also, when I first open Thunderbird and highlight that ghost message first, the review pane is blank, like there is no message there. Then if I click on a different message, that message's contents will show in the preview pane. Then when I go back and click on the the ghost message listing, that pane is still showing the previous message's contents.

When I click on "delete" message, I get the constant blue indicator light in the lower right glowing and nothing happens.
