Thunderbird for Android Community Forum

Account, Reading mail, Always show images: Yes/No:- Add option to show previously accepted "show images" that have already been accepted.

By default I don't show images on my email accounts (NO setting), however, I subscribe to various news letters etc. that contain the same header images. Can an additional option be added to the "Show images" setting to allow images that have been manually accepted/shown previously to be displayed in newly arrived emails without further prompting?

If this already exists in Android TB then I cannot find the setting for it! Regards Crusoe

Hello guys,

I've been a passionate user of (and advocate for) Thunderbird for more than 20 years now and was quite delighted when Thunderbird for Mobile was launched. At last I could use Thunderbird on my phone and tablet as well as my desktop! I've used Bluemail (the best of the rest in my view) on my mobile for some time and am currently comparing its performance side by side with Thunderbird for Mobile, having just installed the latter. In terms of fetching message I'm actually finding Bluemail much speedier at the moment and don't know why this is so. For example, I can often read incoming emails on Bluemail five minutes or more before they arrive via Thunderbird. So far as I know, I think I've tweaked all the necessary settings on Thunderbird but may be overlooking something. Can anybody suggest a way to speed up Thunderbird? I'm more than keen to keep on using it.

Cheers,

Grant

I've used Tbird for PC for years with no problem. A month back, I installed it on my Android, then used the desktop "Export for Mobile" option to recreate all my emails (I have several) on my phone. The setup worked and I receive emails. But realized last week that no one receives emails I send from my phone from my domain emails.

No error messages, no bounces, and email ends up in Sent folder. Plus, bcc'ing myself, I receive them. I double-checked outgoing servers. These match what is on the desktop Tbird.

However, emailing from my gmail account in Tbird on Android works--email received. Just the emails from my domain don't go through.

versions: TB for Android 10.1, Verizon (samsung) android (v 15) set to cellular (vs wifi) for internet, I have emails via my domain on shared hosting service.

See attached image.

Thank you!

I cannot close the Thunderbird email app on Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Android 16 One UI 8.0. The back arrow in the navigation bar no long closes the app windows. Have to use the back to home center button. Is there a solution to this problem?

The new version of Thunderbird 11.1 for Android does not import account settings properly, one can only see Outbox, nothing else. I have the latest beta and then tried to import my settings from the beta to 11.1, after importing all i have access to is my Outbox, morning else shows up, no inbox etc at all. Think it's an import bug

As stated, I can't update Thunderbird on Android from v11 to the newest v11.1. Apparently this is an App ID fingerprint issue. Has Mozilla changed the App ID from v11 to v11.1? Thanks in advance. Cheers

Even though all my email accounts in Thunderbird for Android are IMAP, when I send or forward messages from my phone they leave no trace: they aren't in any folders on my phone, nor do they show up on my computer. This may make me go back (horror of horrors) to Gmail on my phone.

Bonjour. J'ai installé ThunderBird Android version 10.1 sur mon Galaxy S25 Ultra. Certains de mes comptés de messagerie ne chargent pas l'historique de mes mails reçus, envoyés etc... alors que d'autres comptés l'ont bien fait. Pourquoi ? Que dois-je faire?

Merci pour votre aide. Salutations cordiales Mr P.Brunel Art Styl

Hi, I have the problem that I don't receive any push notifications for my Outlook account. I tried both the Thunderbird and Thunderbird Beta app and everything ist setup correctly, as I get instant push notifications for my other accounts. What I also noticed is even when I open the app and refresh the Unified Inbox, new emails on my Outlook account don't appear. I have to select the inbox of my Outlook account and refresh that to actually get my new emails.

Does anyone know how to solve this or has a similar problem?

Hi, I use Thunderbird for Android Beta 12.0b6 and I have the following problems: 1. Most of the emails I deleted from the notification shade still show in my inbox when opening the app.

2. Since the last update, the gestures work poorly, I have to swipe 2 or 3 times in order to delete an email.

Please have a look into it when you have the time. Thanks

I'm looking for an Android email client that only shows the headers and optionally shows/download the body of the email and any attachments. The reason is that this way I can save space on my phone while maintaining the convenience of a mail client. I read that K9-Mail, now integrated with Thunderbird, has this selectable feature. Is this true? If so, I'll proceed with installing Thunderbird.

Until recently my Thunderbird for Android was synching every 15 minutes (as set in Settings). The number of new e-mails would appear on the TB icon on my screen. But recently this hasn't happened. I can still download e-mails, but I have to open the TB app first, whereupon (after a short delay) any new e-mails download without any further action from me. I didn't knowingly change anything. How can I get back to the original status, please?

Iam unable to find how/where to create additional folders. With desktop version I have created a number of folders. I like organize and segregate my emails into various groups. Especially the ones I choose to preserve rather than delete.

Hello there I have Thunderbird for Android, version 10.1, and in every folder, all mail, both read and unread, have almost the same appearance. It's not easy to tell which ones in the list are read and which are unread. Is there any setting to turn the unread messages in the folder look highlighted, or more bold, or something different anyway than the rest? Because this way it's very inconvenient, which makes me considering turning back to Outlook. Thanks in advance
