Thunderbird refuses to send messages with embedded pictures. No error message. Just a flicker at "send" and then, nothing happens. I use a combination of gmail and Thunderbird if that matters.

Today when I launched Thunderbird it opened the program to Account Setup window. I clicked the Inbox tab at the top and I noticed all my folders were gone as will as all my email accounts, saved emails, calendar setting, basically it looks like a fresh install. An internet didn't offer much help. I did find some info about Troubleshooting Information from the Help option and found the profile folder location. It looks like there are still folders there but I am not sure what they really contain. I tried installing Thunderbird on top of the current program but it made no difference. I also tried an Import of the Default file location that Thunderbird suggested and I got an error message that the Import failed unexpectedly. I've scanned my PC for any viruses and found none. I am using the latest version of Windows 11. Seems like a weird problem as I used Thunderbird yesterday with no problems. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thx,

Effective 5 Decmber 2024 Thunderbird has been unable to download emails. WOW is my ISP and I can download them there from this computer. I can download on my iphone and my wife's ipad. I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it. It changed nothing.

On 29 Nov 2024, TBird stopped downloading all emails from all my accounts. I have not changed anything on the computer and have run all the troubleshooting routines I can find for TBird. Still not working. Interestingly, when Better Bird import the settings from TBird, it exhibited the same issues. Any suggestions?

TIA

[EN] I have the latest version of Thunderbird without any add-ons. The following message is often displayed for the Wirtualna Polska email account: Server IMAP disconnected. I have checked the settings multiple times and they are correct.

[PL] Posiadam najnowszą wersję Thunderbird bez żadnych dodatków. Często dla konta pocztowego Wirtualna Polska wyświetla się komunikat: Serwer IMAP rozłączył się. Sprawdzałem ustawienia wielokrotnie i są one prawidłowe.

Trying to set up Thunderbird on new computer. I do NOT want to import anything but address book from old computer. I use Thunderbird to Gmail since I also have an Android phone and want to access emails with Thunderbird and Gmail. I downloaded the Thunderbird installer, but I cannot log into Gmail when the Thunderbird setup asks me to EVEN THOUGH I know I am using the correct Gmail password, it is rejected as incorrect. Do I need to set up a whole new Gmail account? I MUST use the same email address, and I doubt Google will allow me to set up a new account with that address.

Please help.

For some reason, I am getting message that the Certificate for server is not valid (etc.). I can not get or send my emails as of this morning. Is there something I can do to resolve this issue?

I started having problems sending emails (gmail) with with attachments (of 0.5 GB or more) with Thunderbird version 128.5.0esr which was installed on Nov 27, 2024. Prior to that, I was on 115.16.3 (installed Nov 20, 2024) and earlier 115.16 versions and I had no problems sending emails with file attachments up to 10GB.

I'm running Windows 10 Pro 22H2 OS build 19045.5131 (the current version).

Thanks! -- James

When I press "New Contact" in Address Book mode, so that I can enter a new contact, the address list (far left field) grays out , the new contact data entry field appears and I am able to enter data in this field. However, I am unable to save the new contact in the address book which I have selected! The only way that I can get the pane back to normal is by closing the Address Book tab. Jim

Hallo, seit ca. 3 Wochen habe ich das Problem, dass wenn ich Thunderbird öffne, Emails erst 30 Sekunden später aberufen werden. Was hab ich getan? Google bemüht, nichts gefunden. Speicherplatz um 400 Emails gelöscht, vorhandenen Speicher 2000 auf 4000 gesetzt. hat alles nichts gebracht. Erweiterungen habe ich so keine, bis auf Language Deutsch. Cache gelehrt, brachte auch nichts. Windows 11 Prof. Thunderbird 128.5.1 eser.

When I get a meeting invite via email, or manually create a task or event they do not sync from the tbird home calendar to google calendar. However, if I create an event or task in another of my calendars it automatically goes to the g-calender and tbird home calendar.

When I get an email invite or create a task or event from an email I do not have the choice to use another of my calendars which syncs with g-calender.

How do I get the tbird home calendar to sync to g-calendar? In searching for answers there are several archived and current unanswered question on this topic so my guess is it does not work?

Thanks for any insights.

Using Tbird v128.5.1esr (64-bit) on windows 11

Dear Team,

I hope this message finds you well.

I am experiencing a significant slowdown in email synchronization in Thunderbird. Emails take a noticeably long time to appear after clicking, and the overall syncing process is extremely slow across all folders.

The problem began on Friday, December 6th, following my use of the "Repair" button on the Inbox (8.9GB) and Sent (10.7GB) folders. After initiating the repair for the Sent folder, synchronization across all folders (Inbox, Sent, Spam, etc.) slowed down considerably.

Already done: Checked "All Mail" on Google IMAP: The folder does not appear in IMAP. Troubleshoot Mode: Attempted, but it did not resolve the issue. Reinstalled Thunderbird: Uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird on my Mac, but the problem persists.

The issue seems isolated to Thunderbird and does not impact my Mac’s overall performance, memory usage, or speed. The synchronization delay affects only Thunderbird, while other applications function normally. I would greatly appreciate your guidance on how to resolve this issue and restore normal synchronization performance.

Thank you in advance for your support!

Hi, I have absolutely no filters set up and I am getting this error message. I saw this issue has been mentioned in support, but the answers were to disable filters. What can I do since I have no filters set up? This just started happening after years of using Thunderbird. Thank you!

In the Today Pane, I use various views depending on what is shown in the rest of the Thunderbird window. Sometimes my Today Pane shows Events, sometimes Events and Tasks, and sometimes only Tasks. If one uses the Events and Tasks view in the Today Pane (left in the picture), one specifies how large the Events section is and how large the Tasks section by sliding a separator up or down. For some time now (since the release of Nebula?) I notice that, if I use the Tasks view in the Today Pane (right in the picture), the Tasks section does not fill the whole Today Pane, but its size is only that which the Tasks section has in the combined Events and Tasks view. The tasks used to fill all the space in the Today Pane by themselves, like the Events view still does (middle of picture). This seems like a bug to me. Has anyone else noticed this?

I've been using Thunderbird for years with multiple google accounts on both Windows and Linux machines, no issues. On my main Windows computer one of the accounts started asking for authorization on a regular basis 2-3 months ago. I deleted the account, hoping to fix the issue, but when trying to add it back, I am stuck with this persistent issue:

- I get to the stage Mozilla Thunderbird Email wants to access your google account.
- When I click Allow, instead of finishing the setup, it brings another popup window: Authentication required - Mozilla Thunderbird.
- No matter what I enter there (full gmail address, just the gmail name etc), it's not accepted, and the same window pops up again and again.

I tried to reinstall Thunderbird a couple of times, and also deleted all files inside C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Thunderbird and C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird . No change.

The issue affects only this particular computer, only this particular gmail account. All other gmail accounts work fine on this computer, and on my other computers (Linux and Widnows ones) all gmail accounts work fine, including the one which I am struggling with on the first computer.

There seems to be some caching going one which cannot be defeated by uninstalling Thunderbird and deleting the two C:\Users\xxx\AppData\*\Thunderbird folders. Where else can it be stored? Could it be Windows registry file?

Thank you in advance.

Events reminders that are snoozed sometimes do not show back up. I discovered this when I restarted my PC and when Thunderbird came back up, a number of those snoozed events were suddenly back.

After deleting/removing a gmail account Thunderbird gets stuck in a loop constantly requesting that I login into that non-existing account.

The only solution I found was from over 2 years ago suggesting that we manually find and remove some random files, which also caused me to have to re-login into all of the existing accounts.

I feel like adding and removing accounts is a basic functionality for email apps. How has this not been fixed in over 2 years??

And why does it even remember removed accounts? If I remove it from the list of accounts I expect Thunderbird to delete all mentions of it from my system.

Dzień dobry, dostawca hostingu zmienił adres serwerów. W thunderbird mam 8 kont pocztowych, na 4 zmieniłem adres serwera poczty i wprowadziłem na nowo hasła. Po kliknięciu pogrupuj wiadomości grupuje tylko konta pocztowe na których nie było zmiany adresu serwera, te konta pocztowe na których była zmiana serwera NIE GRUPUJE wiadomości - proszę o pomoc jakie zmiany wprowadzić aby grupowało wszystkie wiadomości.

Porządkowanie wiadomości i napraw - nie działają. Pomoc - tryb rozwiązywania problemów i ustawienia fabryczne - nie działa
