I just updated to V128 (from 78) and I had a bunch of custom named in added to mu dictionary.

I still have the old version on mu computer, how can I either export from the old version and import to the new version, or, can I simply copy over my custom dictionary to my new profile somehow?

Thanks, Mark.

Thunderbird email system has become so bad at blocking outgoing emails both private and business as suspected spam that it is beyond the joke; if this keeps up i will be forced to stop using this system.Ive had all settings checked by computor tech. Jim .

I can't seem to update my Thunderbird mailing lists. I know how to do it, and I go through all the steps to add an address, click "OK" but the mailing list remains unchanged. And when I try to create a whole new mailing list, it lets me do it--that is, create the mailing list--but there are no addresses in it. I attach a couple of screen shots:

First, before I hit OK. Second, after I hit OK.

This has been going on for at least a few months. I thought an update would help but it didn't. Please advise how to fix this problem.

Thank you.

I have a pretty extensive set of email filters to put incoming email into folders based on incoming email address. Have just noticed it applying a filter to an email that does not have a matching address in the filter. Turning off that filter is not an acceptable solution. The filter log shows it matching a filter that does not have that address in it. How to fix? its not happening with all messages. but looking thru log or all email to find important emails is not practical.

filter log excerpt:

[9/11/2024, 3:34:01 PM] Applied filter "hotels" to message from <mcpc@morrisparks.net> - RecTrac Receipt at 9/11/2024, 3:32:37 PM moved message id = 95ccf257-c6d1-4b01-bc11-4420f2465e1f@parkexchange.morrisparks.net to mailbox://nobody@Local%20Folders/Sales/Hotels

When I search for a previous email only a couple of days old, the search only allows years 2023 and before. It won't retrieve any 2024 emails. How can I correct the retrieval dates to include 2024?

The global search in TB is completely defective. I am now running 128.2.0esr and hoped that update might fix it. It hasn't. I just wonder, are there any older or non ESR versions I can downgrade/move to, where the search is fully functional?

Good mornin all; I've created a new local folder and can not move files (emails) into it. I have tried dragging and dropping and right click, move to.... Both of these appear to work and I get no error messages, however, the files stay in my inbox and the new folder remains empty.

Thanks in advance for any help, Jim

It all started somewhere around 3 days ago when I logged in in the morning and 3 messages/mails were all showing the same thing: "------=_NextPart_000_0545_01DAC090.4F1C4F90--". The restart doesn't work. Then while the app is opened and more messages come they all work properly, it is just when I start it the messages that came when I was absent are not showing properly. I don't know if there is any way to reload those messages or something like that. Please help if you know any possible solution. Thank you in advance

Suddenly today I stopped getting new messages in my inbox with Thunderbird. My wife shares our internet provider and she has continued to get hers. Using Windows 10 PC. I get the little Tbird icon telling me I've got a new email, but it does not show up in my inbox, or in any other Tbird folder. I get them only on my iPhone and iPad. No problem with my internet provider, Spectrum. The app shows that I'm on v. 115.10.1. It also showed that an update is available, v. 115.15.0. I went through the update process, including restarting my computer, and when I checked it still showed that I was actually still on v. 115.10.1, so the update apparently didn't actually install. I have no clue what's going on or how to attempt to fix it. Like I said, all is well with my wife's Tbird messages. She continues to get new messages. I can send an email from my section to hers, and it goes to her inbox just fine. Cannot send to me from hers though. If anyone can help I would be very appreciative. Thanks Stewart Wolfson

I moved a bunch of emails from one folder to another within Thunderbird and now those messages will not load in the new folder and so are inaccessible. Any thoughts? The target folder populated with hundreds of inaccessible messages all bearing the date of the transfer rather than the actual message dates (and it represents four years of messages in that folder, properties shows that there are 2424 messages. I tried "repairing" the folder but that did not make those messages accessible.

Don't know what happened, but there is no longer an option to create a list. instructions: Address book > File > New > Mailing list

Note in the image that "mailing list" does not exist. help!

Why is there a limit on how many messages - or maybe it's the total size - can be stored in any given sub-folder? T-bird's message is not enough space, try to empty the trash folder.

I have plenty of disk space, so asking if T-bird has internal limits? I've always kept many messages, so any limitation is disconcerting. I can make more sub-folders, but maybe there's a limit on that as well?

Should I be saving messages in the Archive/Local folders?

Is there a section here for suggestions? I'd like to have an option to have just one Trash folders for all accounts. I'd also like to suggest a shortcut icon to go to next message, since the mouse is already in my hand.

All of sudden, clicking a email link on a webpage in any browser on my computer doesn't open Thunderbird, in fact, nothing happens. Thunderbird is set in Windows as my default email program. If I change the default email program to something different, then clicking on a email link in a webpage works. Switching back to Thunderbird as the default email program doesn't work either.

I am using the following operating system:

Edition Windows 10 Pro Version 22H2 Installed on ‎6/‎12/‎2021 OS build 19045.4780 Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19060.1000.0

The following version of Thunderbird:

128.1.1esr (64-bit) Release notes Thunderbird Windows MSIX packagethunderbird-MSIX - 1.0

My main browsers are Chrome Chrome is up to date Version 128.0.6613.120 (Official Build) (64-bit) and Firefox 130.0 (64-bit).

Can someone help me fix this problem?

Thank you.

I have been very happily using 115.15. Then, yesterday, I was upgraded to a new version that breaks my extensions. Thus I deleted the compatibility.ini file and downloaded 115.15 and installed that (windows os btw). Now everything works beautifully, except for the tags panel. The message number in the tags panel in the folder panel on the left does not update, and no messages appear in the message pane when I click on one of the tags.

What can I do to get this to work again?

Hi, I have a problem, when i set outomatic reply on my account email has send, but with wrong encoding. I 'm writting mail in czech language, so you probably wont be understanding. In the picture is a screen of mail, that was automatic sent, please help me, what i should to change in settings.

On 9/10/24, I tried to download my email and got the message: "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." To my knowledge, nothing had changed on my Win 10 computer, so why this is suddenly showing up is unclear. I have 555 GB of free space on my C: drive, so space isn't an issue. I don't know why the permissions would have changed.

I checked the TB help and found that there was an update, so I installed that. I checked for updates a second time and found another one which I applied too. TB is now at "128.2.0esr (32-bit)" according to Help > About.

I tried restarting TB in troubleshooting mode, but that didn't help. Can someone suggest a way out of this?

Thanks in advance.

This relates to Thunderbird 128.2.0esr (64-bit) running under Windows 10 Pro.

Upon receiving new mail messages in a Unified Inbox, the Thunderbird logo with a red dot properly pops up in the Notification area per the attached screenshot, and the Inbox title in the Windows tray also shows the correct number of new messages. Reading or deleting these messages will either reduce the boldface entry or remove the message from the message pane, but the red dot notification icon and new message count persists. The only way to clear these seems to be to expand the Unified Inbox to show all email accounts, and then simply click sequentially on the account names until the notification drops from the Windows tray. Is this a bug or normal operation?

We have an internal GitLab server at work and I would like to subscribe to one of the atom feed. When adding the URL to Thunderbird, I get "The Feed URL is not a valid feed."

Of course, sending this internal URL to the feed validation service does not work. If I validate the feed content manually, it is indeed valid.

Is there a way to subscribe to an internal, non-public feed?
