I've been using Thunderbird on Windows 10 since last year sometime. Currently I'm on version 151.0.1.

I've 4 x mailboxes here and since yesterday, 3 of them show me an unusual message when checking for emails. I tried attaching a screenshot but although the screenshot uploaded, I couldn't find a way to insert it here. But the message says Unable to write the email to the mailbox and asks me to check if I've write privileges (which I have) and to cheek the available disk space.(currently 101GB free).

The message is happening 2 or 3 times each day and lasts for about half an hour, then everything works fine again. Has anyone else seen this??

I use Thunderbird on dark mode, so by default, unformatted text (where I haven't explicitly set text color) appears as white text on a black background in my compose window. The same unformatted text, when sent to someone viewing it in light mode, appears as black on white to them and remains readable. When I use white text in my compose window, it looks identical to me, but remains white when sent and is thus unreadable white-on-white to those using light mode. Is there something in the composition window that indicates whether I'm typing with formatted or unformatted text? (No, the color selector tool does not do this. When typing unformatted text, it displays the last selected colors, regardless of whether they are being used.)

If there's no way to distinguish this, could someone please add a UI element for it?

I've been a Thunderbird user for years without problem. However, since May 22, three specific messages continually reappear after deleting them from my Inbox.

I keep my Inbox empty and it stays that way, except for these 3 messages. Removing them from the Trash folder has not solved the problem.

My email provider is netaddress.com via POP3 account. I signed on to look at my inbox on their site via a browser, and the messages aren't there.

I have tried repairing and compacting the inbox, but the messages continue t reappear.

Do you have any other suggestions?

TIA.

After a recent update to Thunderbird (months ago), I found that when I search through my emails by name, it will find those emails and list them for me. But when I go and click on one of those found emails, it arbitrarily brings up some unrelated email - it never brings up the one that I click on.

How can we fix this? Thanks. Dr. Howard Neufeld

Why are many calendar events just disappearing? This has been happening for the last three months!! Calendar events were there yesterday, are gone today! I tried in protected mode and lost even more events. Now even more are missing. Several I have re-input over the last months, and they get gone too. What’s going on!! There are no addons, no sync. Nothing but Thunderbird. any one else having this bug?? What file are events stored in and how do I read them?? Any way to recover anyof these?? There is a lot of information and annotations, such as cancellations and rescheduleing and the whole bunch just disappeared? Many older events are still intact but I sure don't know for how long!!! My profile is on a separate drive and is accesed by both W10 and 11 for email and calendar. No problems except they are missing using either system!! It's a bug!! Anyone interested in looking at it??

Thunderbird 148+ on Windows 11 repeatedly prompts for the password when synchronizing an Exchange account (professional) configured with the native Exchange support (no add-on installed).

The account only offers “NTLM” or “Normal password” authentication methods. OAuth2 is not available in the account settings.

During synchronization, Thunderbird asks for the password separately for many folders. However, clicking “Retry” usually works immediately without changing the password, and manually re-entering the same password also works.

The issue then reappears for the next folder, causing continuous authentication prompts (I have many folders...).

Actions already tested:

• deleting saved passwords and tokens,
• deleting/renaming key4.db and logins.json,
• restarting Thunderbird,
• recreating the account.

The problem persists.

This looks like an authentication/session handling issue rather than an actual invalid password.

Some mail in my spam folder is marked with the red flame spam icon, and some isn't. It's all spam -- that part is okay. Thunderbird has sorted everything correctly. But why wouldn't everything in the spam folder be marked as spam?

Hello, I have six calendars: five are hosted by one provider, Runbox.com, via SabreDAV, and one is hosted by a different provider, Apple iCloud Calendar. I am periodically seeing the error shown below on multiple calendars during automatic sync.

I have saved a two-day event history from the error console and can provide it on request, along with any other troubleshooting information that may be helpful.

I am technical by nature, but my programming experience was primarily with mainframes rather than personal computers. Could someone kindly help me troubleshoot this ongoing issue?

Thanks in advance.

I added a new mail account and then after a week or so decided to remove it. But after removing it I kept getting a popup nag to enter a password for the removed account.

Hello, My Provider is vodafone. Since you updated Thunderbird, i can't send emails. This Problem exist since about 2 Month. Vodafone cant help me, because they said, it is your Problem. I need very quick help. I need emails for my business. Thanks

I've been seeing a doubling of *some* incoming messages, where a duplicate message comes very soon after the first one. For example, two incoming messages were received at:

Sun, 07 Jun 2026 14:03:10 +0000

Sun, 07 Jun 2026 14:04:31 +0000

So the second message came in about 1 minute and 21 seconds after the first, and not because of anything I did (as far as I know). But then that was it, no third message came in.

This isn't really a bug, as nothing is harmed, just a repeated message. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I was recently forced to change my gmail password. All of the help messages I found tell me that after I change my email password I have to save the new password to Thunderbird and I don't know where to save it.

I'm using gmail/outlook/hotmail email addresses on a new win11 laptop with Surfshark VPN and getting email up & running is the last major set up issue. I am having issues with both send & receive emails across all addresses. I get some functionality if I pause the VPN (not ideal!) but not total. I have tried the Surfshark bypass function for Thunderbird but without success.

I have had no issues with this setup for many years on win10.

Using Outlook (one email address) on the web with the Surfshark Chrome extension I can both send & receive.

1. what should the IMAP & SMTP server settings be for gmail/outlook/hotmail? 2. are there any known issues with Thunderbird/Surfshark? 3. are you aware of any issues with gmail/outlook/hotmail blocking Surfsahrk?

When I get spam email in my inbox, I mark it as SPAM. It will arrive again in a couple of days. Why does it come into my in-box still? Its marked as SPAM in my In-BOX!

I don't want to keep touching junk email!!! its a huge waste of time. I cannot find the settings on how to make that action happen.

Please advise. If this isnt possible I will unfortunately be leaving your platform after decades of use. Yes I have donated several times over the years. Not get rich money, but it all helps.

Using Thunderbird with Spectrum email (an old roadrunner address). Changed the outgoing server to the following: Server Name: mobile.charter.net Port: 587 Username: Reefside@cfl.rr.com Authentication: Normal Password Connection Security: SSL/TLS Testing connection fails. I have tried different combinations and once in a while I get that the connection is successful, but email sending hangs and never completes.

Thunderbird aggregates in the same threads e-mails from my employer that are completely unrelated. They are sent in different months, with a different subject, etc. and they end up in the same thread. Clearly, there is something in the header pushing Thunderbird to aggregate them, but this results in a very annoying ordering of the emails.

In my case, e-mail messages are sorted on date with descending order. However, the first message I see in my list dates back to months ago because another message sent few days ago has been merged with the previous one in a thread.

This would not be a problem if the message displayed in the list were the last one added to the thread and not the first one starting the thread.

I have done several searches and read several help pages and discussions here, but I cannot find a way to display threads in the same way the rest of the messages is shown, i.e. latest first. For some obscure reasons, Thunderbird keeps displaying in the message list and in the threaded view (when I expand the thread), the messages in reverse order wrt my selection.

How can I fix this?

I transferred my Win 11 T-bird system to a new Win 11 computer using the T-Bird instructions re Profiles etc. The system transferred and operates on the new computer, BUT the last six years of e-mails and my current address book and calendar did not. The calendar that transferred was from 2014 to 2020 and the addresses were also from 2020. The current email addresses and up-to-date calendar didn't transfer. How can I make sure my current data transfers. I still have my old computer with T-Bird installed?

My inbox folder costently says it has more messages than it displays (I can see the missing ones by searching). I have tried repairing it, looking at filters, etc., but nothing seems to work. See picture. Thank you!
