Hi There,

I am trying to add my new email address to the thunderbird app for Windows and running into issues syncing it through IMAP settings. The process seems to go smoothly until it gets to the point where I have to enter my email password. After I enter my password and hit "continue" I get the following error message:

Component returned failure code: 0x804b000a (NS_ERROR_MALFORMED_URI) [nsIIOService.newURI]

I have attached the screen shots of my process, as well as the IMAP and SMTP settings from my email provider.

Any help I can get in troubleshooting this error would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Tim

I'm having a lot of trouble with moving my years of POP mail accounts to a new computer using IMAP.

I'm starting with my mail AOL account but Synchronizing TB the web account folder structure just isn't working. My initial installation went fine, but I can't seem to modify the folders and use message filters.

The initial installation basically duplicated the web account folder structure automatically, but making modifications isn't working.

I can't even delete test folders I set up on TB. I select them and try to delete, but they never are deleted. On IMAP accounts, how does the sync work?

My pop email has stopped collecting email, so I guess there is no turning back at this point.

HELP! My inbox "SUBJECT" and "FROM" are not matching. Thunderbird keeps jumbling my emails in my inbox so that the sender's email does NOT correlate to the correct email they sent... The order of the different columns in the inbox do not lineup - Thunderbird changes the sender name, or the subject. Hope that makes sense. For example I click on an email from my boss regarding a shift and an email from Voile skis comes up about some new products. The subject is the same one that is in the email but the "FROM" is my boss' email! Please help, I have quit re-opened, opened in "troubleshoot" mode, made sure I am in the newest update, etc. Thanks

I have used Thunderbird with the same email account for years, creating subfolders and moving emails to the subfolders with no issues.

With Thunderbird 153.0.1, after creating a new subfolder in the account, when attempting to move emails to the new folder, I receive the following error:

"Thunderbird: The current command did not succeed. The email server responded: APPEND invalid flag list"

Hi, I was trying to find a particular email and was playing with a couple of filters. I ended up with all of my inbox in alphabetical order. In other words, all the senders' names starting with A are at the top, and conversely all the Z' s are at the bottom. How do I put them back in the order received please? Many thanks, John.

After a long explanation, I tried to add a file and lost everything. Starting over! After using TB for over 30 years, I accumulated a large number of personal folders to archive files to. Due to confusion on my part about pass words in Proton Mail and their Bridge, I had to reinstall my ProtonMail account into Thunderbird. Because all my personal folders were connected with the old "account" name, I didn't remove it, and the new addition seemed to be working fine.

After doing some house cleaning to remove duplicate and obsolete files, I wanted to move the folders attached to the old account name, under the new name. I thought I could carefully move my personal folders from the old account, back under the new Protonmail account. Sadly, that doesn't work like that. What I did find was that the original folders which come under the original "account", were created with an older version of TB, which put them in a folder on my HD. But the new default folders ("inbox", "draft", "sent" etc.) are mirrors of the Protonmail Bridge, which is NOT what I want.

So I need someone that knows how to either place the old folders back under the NEW "account", or how to create new folders that ARE on the HD, and then move the files from one place to the other.

Just to help clarify, here's the location of the old folders as per the "properties" info.

mailbox:///E:/thunderbird data/thunderbird/yetudx3p.default/Mail/Local Folders/Friends & family

You can see the address for this folder is on my Drive E: I can go directly to that address on my drive E and see each of the files.

imap://gshantz%40protonmail.com@127.0.0.1/Folders/2009

This folder is from the NEW account of Protonmail - bridge, and is obviously the web address of Protonmail. It is NOT editable, unlike the above location on my HD E:.

Any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated, gshantz

My correspondents keep getting shuffled and applied to the wrong subject line in the inbox. It was suggested that I right-click on the folder, select "properties" and then "repair." That clears it up, but only for a matter of hours. Plus, any emails that I have open get closed and then I have to find them again.

One person who suggested that I right-click the folder and repair it said if that didn't work, there was a more technical fix. I need it!

Help!

Thunderbird 128.7.1esr (64-bit) on Windows 10 PC. Upon going to my Sent Folder, I find only 2 emails (both sent today) rather than the several thousand that were there previously. This may have occurred due to a power outage system shutdown. Regardless of the cause, the problem exists. I tried to compact the folder with no success. I tried to repair the folder (under folder properties > general information > repair folder) with no success. Still only 2 emails are shown in the Sent Folder. BUT the emails still exist, because when I use the Quick Filer to search for a person to whom I've sent emails, the old emails show up! So how can I get all these "invisible" emails to be visible in the Sent Folder? Thanks for your help on this! Rich

recoverable? reportable? If too much trouble, say so and I can let it go. previously they were populated with titles and email content no relief after compressing folders, nor using safe mode. rlse: 153.1.0esr on Win10 home 22H2 19045.7663

I have a lot of saved emails--how do I look up or determine how much storage space these emails are taking up? John thdtgog1118@outlook.com

Hello,

A folder (Local Folder) shows that I have 20 UNREAD messages. I don't care about them and want to mark them all as READ right away, so I right-click on the folder and select “Mark all folders as read,” but NOTHING happens! I search for the “unread” ones, it finds them, I select them all and right-click, but no options are available! What’s the point of the search and multiple selection in this case?

Please either tell me how to do this in a single step or fix these usability bugs.

Best regards

Jeg har brugt Thunderbird gennem mange år. Nu har Norlys besluttet at lukke Stofanet mailserveren. Min nye internet forbindelse "Fællesnet" har ingen mail server. Hvilke frie mail servere kan bruges sammen med Thunderbird. Venlig hilsen H. P. Elmer

I'm coming back to Thunderbird, from bluemail, and was wondering if you could add a feature they had. Essentially, you could tap on the profile icon in the inbox, and you'd get a screen with all the messages you had from that address. From there, you had a button at the bottom of the screen that would open a menu with options to: message, mark all read, and delete all. Theres a confirmation dialog after the delete all option is tapped.

Is this something you could add?

Hi, Hoping I can get some help here, I couldn't find an answer in the search topics.

I have lost a few local subfolders. First the subfolders lost the emails contained in them and then the subfolders themselves disappeared.

I renamed the main folder just removing the year from the folder name and not long after that the above happened.

I have tried the following:

• Searching the help topics • Searching the forum • Closing reopening Thunderbird • I removed .msf files and restarted Thunderbird

I am not sure what I can do now.

Thanks in advance for any help.
