Thunderbird for Android Community Forum

I'm using Thunderbird on my laptop for years, I've never been able to use it on my S22 Samsung mobile (Android).

Explanation After the App installation, I did export my profile from my laptop using the QR Scanner on my phone. Since then, whenever I try to send an email, it remains in my draft and is never sent. I'm not even receiving emails. I cannot see any of my email folders.

Therefore nothing work, the only thing that seems to have been imported in my phone is my adress book. If that can help, my email address is .....@outlook. com.

Thank you for your support.

Incoming messages that contain smart (curly) quotes or other extended characters are rendered as 3 question marks in diamonds on Thunderbird for Android. On the Windows Thunderbird app, the email renders correctly.

We read "If you are having trouble viewing the full width of an HTML email in Thunderbird for Android, you can either pinch and zoom or change the viewing mode. "

Well that involves moving back and forth for each and every line.

Sure, blame it on the sender for assuming we have a desktop computer.

But now it's too late, they've already sent it to us.

Gmail gets around this by reformatting the HTML to fit the screen size.

Or perhaps we could be allowed to see the plain text version of a multi-part MIME message, like Roundcube allows us to.

Hi everyone, I have a pixel 7 that is on the latest release of Android 16

I'm using Thunderbird for Android to access my work server through POP3 secure and it works allowing me to receive and send emails

The widget that I use on my Android to show all my emails including any that come in new mostly shows up completely blank, randomly, after unknown circumstances. When I get a new email I will briefly be able to see the new email subject as well as other emails that are sitting in the box that have already been read. It also will show the current email and previous emails in the non-bold text for a while.

This is really frustrating as I needed to work like a normal app showing things sitting in the inbox that I've already been read at a glance.

Yes, inbox has been selected into UniFi so that way it should be shown.

Unless I misunderstand how to use Thunderbird for Android. I can't see where the problem lies.

I have uploaded a screenshot of the widget that shows unified inbox at the top and the blank area below. This box gets populated as I stated above only when new emails come.

Additional shots show when a new email comes in. It suddenly all appears

The last shot shows that it redraws after reading the new email so that all the red emails are in bold

I have clipped these screen images to protect my privacy on other emails sitting in the display

And helps. Her thoughts would be appreciated, again, I'm assuming this is a bug and I don't know how report this bug adequately

Hi All, I have been sending emails through Android Thunderbird, but they aren't being synced to the server, so I can't see them anywhere else. I've set the Sent folder to sync (as well as the Inbox). Pressing the sync button just spins the indicator, but doesn't actually sync. When I try to move or copy messages, an error comes up saying that messages can't be copied or moved that aren't synconised. How can all my messages (sent, inbox, everything) be synced so that I can see them everywhere? I've just turned on sync debugging, will see the results soon.

In V.10, it used to be I had to really swipe all the way left for delete to occur.

Now in V.13 only a small/partial movement deletes.

This is tool easy to mis-trigger. Please go back.

Thanks

I have been using TB Android for some time now. I saw the update to 11.1 from my current 10.1 this morning. So I jumped on it with excitement! Suffice it to say that, thanks to my rooted phone and Neo Backup, I have returned to 10.1...

My main problems are with the "hierarchical folders" - especially in gmail, which is the only place I see these bad changes (I have outlook and yahoo accounts as well):

1. There should be an option to turn use of "hierarchical folders" OFF in an account. I sure don't see that. 2. If "hierarchical folders" are to be insisted-upon, the state of opened folders in the hierarchy should be persisted - at the very least within a given TB session - but it would be more ideal across TB sessions. 3. If you tap on the un-opened "hierarchy" folder, you get a completely worthless page (see attached). WTH? 4. There should be a way to indicate that a given "hierarchy" folder should NOT be hidden in the drop-down but should be placed at the top, outside the hierarchy. Would would have hoped that the "Show At Top" setting in the Manage Folders would do this, but it does NOT.

I didn't go much beyond this. I realized right then that this was not the update for me. So I tried to use the back button to return from TB to the launcher's home page (so I could go to Neo Backup and recover). Guess what? The back button no longer exits from TB to the launcher in 11.1 as it did in 10.1. I sure did not see this in the release notes.

This is a shame really.

I currently have version 12.1 of the Thunderbird Android app. A few weeks ago, the app stopped showing messages in IMAP subfolders. All messages that were there disappeared from view. The messages can still be viewed in the Thunderbird Windows desktop program and in the K-9 11.1 app.
