Hello, I have tried to send several email replies using thunder bird but they fail because the smtp server times out. Or cannot be reached. I am a new Starlink subscriber and am wondering if that could have anything to do with the issues. The software is on my dell computer running windows 10. Any help or suggestion is appreciated.

Translation: My emails in Thunderbird suddenly disappeared.

They were over 10,000, but now they're down to only 7,800.

Why?

Original: Email saya di thunderbird tiba-tiba menghilang, awal nya sejumlah diatas 10 ribu , menjadi hanya 7800 ? kenapa

Cut the cable a couple months ago. Have been using Firefox/Tbird many years. Stopped being able to access old email address of 25 years a couple days ago. When opened Tbird would always got to old email and say "couldn't log in" or something. Would cancel out of that twice, click on new address and collect new address email. Old email was always there, used it as reference during transition. At settings chose new as default and deleted old address. Looks like the boxes checked would not have deleted old email but it's gone. 3500+ of them. No warning, message, choice, nothing. took zero time. Cannot change in Mozilla login to new email address. Tried Tbird import tool, could seem to figure it out. Also need to update email in Mozilla. Help. Tks. x@yahoo.com

I'd like to reduce the size of my profile file xxxxxx.default . it is currently 17.2 GB. If I delete several of the folders in the "Local Folder" (example "sent mail 2010"), will the file size shrink or does it only expand to fit the folders.

It's been months since I have been able to access my Thunderbird email. I have forgotten my password and tried all the self-help instructions, but nothing worked. Please help me.

Hallo,

ich erhalte meine e-Mails auf meinem Laptop via Thunderbird. Als ich letzte Woche nach einer einwöchigen Abwesenheit meine e-Mails checken wollte, zeigte mir das System 178 erhaltene e-Mails an. Als ich meinen Posteingang öffnete, zeigte es nur 78 an, die auch existierten. Es fehlten somit 100 e-Mails. Liegt das an Thunderbird oder muss ich meinen e-Mail-Supporter (1&1) kontaktieren? Da ich kein "Computer-Freak" bin, bin ich ziemlich hilflos und würde mich freuen, wenn ich von Euch Hilfe bekommen könnte.

Vielen Dank im Voraus für möglichen Support und hilfreiche Antworten an meine e-Mail-Adresse x@online.de.

Herzliche Grüße aus Berlin Harry Kühn

I accidentally deleted a folder (that I thought was empty) which ended up having important saved emails in it. I thought I had transferred the emails to a new folder...but unfortunately they were still in the old folder. I tried everything I knew how to do but I have not been able to find the folder any where.

  I still have Windows 10.  I'm dreading upgrading to Windows 11.

I'm afraid to "go look for the Thunderbird information". I tried that once and then couldn't get back to where I was and had to start all over again.

Hi everyone,

I recently lost access to some important emails in Thunderbird after a crash. While searching for solutions, I came across AftermathInvestigations.com , which offers professional help with investigations and recovery — it reminded me how important it is to protect and recover valuable information.

Does Thunderbird have a recommended method or tool for safely restoring lost emails without risking data security?

Thanks!

My computer crashed and so restarted it, when went to open thunderbird got a couldn't load XPCom message. Followed directions to reinstall thunderbird without using the uninstaller. When I installed it, I reloaded my email to set it up. I have lost all my latest emails, only getting them from 15 years ago. and today, nothing from this year. All my folders have also gone and my contacts.

Can someone please help, how do I fix it, I have emails from this year that I need to keep.

When I enter a search string such as "75-0098-01", the search returns messages with only partial matches like "0098".

Is it possible to use a search string and get back results that find only that complete string?

thanks and best regards, John
