Since updating to the latest versions of TB I keep seeing ??? in messages. When I search in Firefox it says to change message encoding using an option under the view menu. But I can't find such an option.

Can someone please tell me how to fix this?

Thanks.

From the day when I started using Thunderbird Mail client, from that moment only, McAfee is notifying me after every 5 seconds of a Trojan Threat

C:\Users \Pankaj Jain \ AppData \ Local \ Temp\ Trojan:Win / SuspiciousAttachmentScript.a

And the moment I uninstalled Thunderbird it stopped notifying it. And then I reinstalled it, same started happening. It hijacks the system and if I am writing, it stops that and wants me to see that notification (which all antiviruses wants to). Even worse is that I cant find any setting in McAfee to stop this notification.

I am frustrated now. Can you help on this?

Can't get rid of this spam: ecare.all.r@emailff.att-mail.com Unfortunately I clicked on it and multiple spam sites came up. I've tried the spam filter and it doesn't work. Suggestions?

When I try to send out an email, I receive an error message that states, Sending of message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: <cjmst61@charternet> sender rejected. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again. I have checked my settings and still can't send

I have been using emails without problem until recently but since a few days ago, it suddenly happened that I now cannot attach files. I have reinstalled software but still I cannot. I was asked to ask email provider so I asked nifty but they have not responded. Another issue, after reinstalled software, description is now shown in English. I can understand it but I would like to know how it can change to Japanese. I would appreciate very much if someone can help to solve this issue. Thank you very much. redacted@nifty.com

When I installed Thunderbird, I selected Custom Installation, thinking I would get an opportunity to select which components I wanted installed. All it allowed me to do is define the installation folder. Not very "customizable." Anyway, I already have a calendar app that I'm perfectly happy with, don't need a task manager, and don't use chat, Is there a way to remove those apps from Thunderbird?

Have got a replacement computer, and downloaded the latest TBird (having used it with AOL) for years). Following initial set up procedure, TB detects correct settings for AOL and the "enter password" page opens from AOL succcessfully for authorisation. AOL requires 2 factor authorisation, and I use a phone code for this.

However the speed at which the code arrives from AOL has always varied quite a bit, and today it is taking almost a minute so the TB set up screen is timing out long before the code arrives. Cant go on retrying as I will get locked out of the account. No point in going for manual set up as the auto settings are correct, so the same problem is going to occur. I have three AOL e-mail addresses to set up! Is there a workaround of some sort for this - its terribly frustrating and the set up screen "connect your e-mail settings" timeout period does seem quite short if you have to wait for a 2FA phone code or e-mail code - any delay in the arrival of which is completely ouside your control .

Hi, hoping someone could help as I am struggling to get my information back. I am using Ubuntu Cinnamon.

Thunderbird crashed last night, wouldn't work, tried safe mode. Nothing fixed it. It hung when opening up and after 30 seconds said force quit. So I was forced to reinstall. I did a manual backup but not using the inbuilt tool as I couldn't get into Thunderbird. I just copied the data from username/.thunderbird

After spending a long time uninstalling. Because it reached 78% and then crashed on uninstall. Eventually after reading various pages on the internet I managed to reinstall from the Ubuntu software manager using the latest snap version. (Which I am not sure was what was actually installed previously).

However having used thunderbird for nearly 20 years or so. I have a username/.thunderbird folder. And when I moved to this platform, I have a snap/thunderbird/common/.thunderbird folder.

I installed this new distro 2 years ago, and remember having issues getting my data into the system under Snap. But eventually got it to work somehow back then.

However since reinstalling I cannot see the last 2 years of emails, archives or data. It has launched into a 2 year old profile. I appear to have lost most of the emails from the archive folders (but kept the folders) removed all of the personal folders but then dumped all those emails into my inbox. Giving me 6500 emails that were in various personal folders. (I don't get 6500 emails in a year so don't know what has happened.) It has even changed all of the new dates to the US format, so nothing makes any sense.

I now have 2 Thunderbird profiles, over 12GB in size. And have apparently lost 2 years of my life. But reading support pages, suggests I should be okay because thunderbird doesn't delete data when you reinstall?

I have looked through various other threads which talk about pointing it at the profiles and mail boxes, however nothing works.

Any help much needed.

Was kann ich tun? Habe Probleme mit mozilla. Bei derAuführung der Programme Thunderbird ( ständig ) und Firefox ( manchmal ) kommt es zu Abstürzen wie Programm keine Rückmeldung, einfrieren so das keine Eingaben mehr möglich sind und ich jedesmal das Programm schließen und neu starten muß.

I have/had two different problems with the same results. In the first case I get the login window. I enter the password hit return and that window goes away and some times you can scroll to different opened emails before it says "Not Responding". The only action that works is to exit the app. Usually after a few days or weeks it will start working and does so for a few days or weeks. Lately the login window does not appear when the app opens and it displays the "Not Responding" message. It shows that it is "Loading Message". I have tried all of the options from the troubleshooting window and reinstalled Thunderbird with no change in response> Where do I go from here?

I am having problems sending email form my account, [redacted]@smartpointproducts.ca. I login successfully and the program responds saying the account has been successfully registered however, it still refuses to send emails from this account.

Sending of the message failed. Unable to authenticate to Outgoing server (SMTP) . Please check the password and verify the 'Authentication method' in 'Account Settings | Outgoing server (SMTP)'.

Hello, in Thunderbird I would like to set up my own acknowledgment of receipt for incoming mails. How can I do that?

(In the forum I only found the setting that I get a receipt.)

Thank you in advance for your help

How do I Charge Priority for an email in Thunderbird for Mac? That function is greyed out. What is the fix or workaround? I have version 158.0, do I need a newer version?

Hello everyone. From time to time, the "Attachments" button stops working. It can be clicked, but nothing happens. Occasionally, restarting the PC or the email client helps. More often, the only solution is to reinstall the entire program—which also means losing access to years' worth of emails, as I then have to wait for them to be re-downloaded from the IMAP server. What should I do? I’m using the latest versions.
