just installed thunderbird on my new windows 11 laptop (samsung galaxy book 5) and tried to add my comcast email account. i entered the address and password and it took me to an xfinity web page to validate my password for imap.comcast.net. since i'm not on my home network it send a code to my mobile phone which i entered successfully. it then asked my for the address on my account. i entered it and it told me it didn't recognize the address! I called comcast and finally got to speak with a human (no mI'veean feat). We verified that my xfinity account allows third party applications to access my email. That's pretty much all the help she could give me. i've run thunderbird on my home windows 10 desktop with no issues accessing my comcast email. Has anyone encountered this problem? does it have to do with windows 11 settings? any help would be appreciated.

Incoming messages are interspersed with old messages without any order. I tried to corrrect this by pressing "date" in the installation column to the right, but that does not help.

Thunderbird: Suddenly links in emails are behaving very strangely. Whenever I click on a link, the Inbox window is selected and the link is essentially ignored.

Here is an example: At this site

   do-not-reply@stackoverflow.email

when I click on "Special partition of the set $[n]$" the Inbox window comes up. Copying the link, I find it is this:

   https://sg-links.stackoverflow.email/ls/click?upn=u001.

This is over 700 characters long, which seems a bit strange.

Any info on fixing this will be greatly appreciated.

Migrating from Gmail to ThunderBird- Do I have/where to get ThunderBird email address if I want to "escape" Google? Also a tad confused as to how Firefox/Mozilla/Thunderbird relate to one another!

Thanks, Donna

I had 12 important draft messages in my "drafts" subfolder of one of my e-mail accounts. This e-mail account is a work e-mail based in Outlook, and I use Thunderbird to download those e-mails to my laptop, and to compose e-mails. The 12 messages in that Thunderbird folder suddenly disappeared, and have also disappeared from my "drafts" folder in Outlook. (The Thunderbird and the Outlook accounts are linked.) I did not change any settings. This has never happened before. Those missing e-mails do not appear in the "deleted items" folder in Thunderbird or in Outlook. It is extremely frustrating and is causing problems at work.

Oddly, my Thunderbird listing of folders still shows the number "12" next to the name of the "drafts" folder. But, there are no e-mails visible in that folder. All my other Thunderbird folders for this e-mail and for my other e-mail are working properly. Please help.

Is there a way to create a Thunderbird account even though your system is not able to log into my iCloud.com email account using my credentials?

Hello. My email account with you is not receiving emails. But I did test for sending emails and it seems to work? Can you look into this please? x@windstream.net

Hi,

I'm looking to make Gmail my principal email account, instead of using my ISP account. Gmail requires 0Auth2 authentication, as many will know.

I'm a Luddite and prefer to use POP3, for a number of reasons. Thunderbird works fine (with POP3 Gmail), on my computer. Unfortunately, 0Auth2 doesn't appear as an authentication option, for POP3, in Tbird for Android. So the TB android app forces IMAP on my tablet and phone.

Is there any way around this? Are there any plans to incorporate 0Auth2 authentication for POP3 within Tbird for Android?

Thanks

I updated to the newest version of Thunderbird. I was having problems authenticating the accounts I have set up (I was required to do this after the update), but finally succeeded. Two of my accounts do not show all of the folders that are in those accounts. The other accounts are fine. When I try to subscribe, the missing folders do not show up even after refresh. The folders are in the web interface for those two accounts, and also show up fine in my phone. I removed the accounts and re-added them, but the folders still do not show up. The two accounts (Frontier) are hosted by Yahoo. I also have a regular yahoo account and those folders show up fine.

I am unable to find the Archive folder. It is not listed when I right click on the account name. All of my folders are there but not the Archive. Any one know how to deal with this?

"Dear Support Team, I am trying to configure my email account (gennadij.tolkachev@digitranslab.com) in Mozilla Thunderbird, but I am encountering an issue. The automatic configuration fails with the message: "Thunderbird failed to find the settings for your email account." When I proceed to the manual setup screen, the Incoming Server field is pre-filled with ".digitranslab.com" (including the leading dot). The application rejects this, stating that the server name is empty or invalid (it says: "Server name is empty or incorrect. Only letters, numbers, - and . are allowed"). Could you please provide me with the correct manual server settings for our mail server? Specifically: Incoming Server (IMAP): Server hostname Port Connection security (SSL/TLS, STARTTLS, or None) Authentication method Outgoing Server (SMTP): Server hostname Port Connection security Authentication method Thank you for your assistance. Best regards, Gennadij Tolkachev"

Hi. I have a problem since few months ago about the following fact: when i want to move emails from inbox to a specific folder, i am using "recent destination" option, but the folders doesn't appears anymore in alphabetic order. I have attached a screen shot with "recent destination" list of folders and currently they are not listed in alphabetic order anymore. Can you help me to fix this issue?

Thank you!

I have an email account and a web hosting with a reliable service. I have noticed that from time to time some of my thunderbird emails transfer automatically to my website and appear in the 'posts' pages as 'pending'. The site admin email is different from my email address so in theory this should not be happening any suggestions?

Hello, I have tried to send several email replies using thunder bird but they fail because the smtp server times out. Or cannot be reached. I am a new Starlink subscriber and am wondering if that could have anything to do with the issues. The software is on my dell computer running windows 10. Any help or suggestion is appreciated.
