System:

Win 11 Home (lastest updates, also my notebook's latest updates from the manufacturer) Thunderbird version 151.0

Okay, this is a multiple clusterf#@$.

I ended up needing to do a Win 11 Home "reset" keeping data. But I needed to back up some files first. But my back up drive was full. Usually, it's because of EaseUs ToDo not deleting files and just adding and adding to the system backup. But that wasn't the main issue: my Thunderbird profile (which I backup separately) was about 280 GIGABYTES in size! This is an extension of a prior problem for which nobody on here new how to solve and certainly nobody from Mozilla chimed in to help. So I did what I'd done before (but it'd never been like this) and delected a couple of THOUSAND seemingly redundant iterations of files from my profile, but NONE of the folders inside the profile.

Of course the Win11 reset deleted Thunderbird and all the profile information. No big problem, I've done this before...but it didn't work copying in all of the old files (from my backup drive) into a new profile and selecting that profile to boot. So, I went to the "Recycle Bin", undeleted all of those files back into my backed-up profile. But I'm only able to get Thunderbird to see all of my address book information. It is not finding my Thunderbird and email account settings nor my email messages (21 years worth). I 100% did NOT delete my email messages (c:\users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\PROFILENAME\Mail).

I can laboriously redo my email account information (five different accounts) and Thunderbird user settings, but I really DESPERATELY NEED HELP restoring my email messages.

PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME!

I can't turn off 'threading' of messages. I hate that feature. I'll do my own damn 'threading'. Now the 'search' function is useless. Help me turn off 'threading' I run Thunderbird which I like, on my HP Windows 11 laptop.

"Threading" cannot be 'unchecked' in the dropdown menu.

the morning I tried to access my email account on Videotron (I live in Quebec) and got this message from thunderbird "Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because connecting to Outgoing server (SMTP) .videotron.ca failed." Thunderbird was working perfectly yesterday. I contacted Videotron tech service and spent over an hour with the technician with no success. I have included two screen shots.

I've used thunderbird for years. Now I can't get it back. I tried a clean uninstall/reinstall. Downloaded from the thunderbird site. Seems to install fine, but then says no profile recognized. I put some old profiles in the appdata\roaming\thunderbird\profiles in desperation, but still no luck. My clean uninstall did involve registry entries (Revo-Uninstall). So I'd like to get a clean start with Thunderbird, but it won't let me. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. I dread the idea of using another email after all these years!

For the past several days, TB has not been downloading messages from Yahoo. When I click to download, it will say "downloading message 1 of 36" and then time out.

I get this message when I double-click the progress bar: "Connection to server pop.mail.yahoo.com timed out."

The settings have not been altered in any way.

I've looked through the various discussions on similar questions in this community and on Reddit, but none of the suggestions have worked.

Help please.

Just what it says in the summary. I went to settings to check/change something, and found this new (I think) message in colour at the top of the page. I have no idea what it means, as I am not part of any organization. The statement is a link, and when I click on it, it takes me to the page shown in the image What if anything, does this mean? Do I need to do anything about it?.

Hi, i'm wondering if there is a way to get rid of this "account". If I understand correctly, it is used for outbox (before mails go to the sent folder of the proper account), and also used for default Archive destination. I understand why this would be required for pop3 accounts but i'm using only IMAP or Exchange. I'd rather have my archived mails go to the Archive folder under the proper account too.

As the topic says, the message list turned from the usual dark-mode look, to a full black background after updating to 151.0.

Was this an intentional change? How can I revert it?

Been using outlook since 2000, I am tyrin to cut the umbilial cord to outlook as it is craper each year that passes.

Can i have more than 1 sig as i use maybe 10 different sigs for different reasons?

I see a use file do i get to choose a differt file when inserting sig or am i stuck with one and have to manualy change file or copy from somewhere else.

Once i get Thinder runnin i wil be happy to support on a monthly basis but i need to se if ti will suffice.

I had received several emails from an individual over the past few weeks. All emails displayed in the inbox (on my desktop computer) as they should. This afternoon suddenly all of these emails disappeared from the desktop inbox. The emails are still on the server and are and can be viewed in the inbox on my laptop but not on my desktop. If I use the quick filter function in the desktop the emails are there but not in the inbox. I assume some sort of filter accidentally was activated (I did not attempt any filter changes) but I can't find how to remove this filter function so the emails again appear in the inbox as they should. Please provide detailed instructions how to get these emails to reappear in the desktop inbox.

i got 20 odd years of folder structures and import from old outlook only imports 2 of the 12 sub folders this is just one example, its also only import bits and pieces. see snip

it also import supid hotam crap i dont want

Hello...

This morning I accessed my email addresses on Thunderbird just fine. But this Xfinity splash screen kept popping up in front of my email screen. Then my emails stopped coming in. The Xfininty screen asked me to verify my email or phone number. When I did, it said they didn't exist. Xfinity/Comcast said there is no problem on their end. And that my email is not hacked because I have two factor verification in place.

Earlier this year, my email was hacked. And I lost all my emails. This splash screen won't go away or close. There is no way out of it. Xfinity escalated the problem and says that someone will call in two hours. Last time this nightmare went on for more than a month with calls back and forth trying to match time zones, etc.

Anyone ever run into something like this. I really don't want to delete the whole program and start over with all the imports.

I don't use Archives or Templates. There is no folder on my servers that correspond to these and they are not subscribed in my IMAP settings.

They don't appear in the per-account view. But they somehow appear in the unified folder view.

I am not able to figure out how to make them disappear.

Help.

Hi there,

When attempting to send emails through Thunderbird, I get the following error messages:

Login to server smtp.long-mcquade.com with username X@long-mcquade.com failed.

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)’.

When testing the server connection in server settings and outgoing server settings, I successfully establish a connection, yet I am still unable to send messages.

I've done it many times - copy the folder under Profiles to a big memory stick, copy that into Profiles on my other (travel) computer, and all is well. But this time, I got the "old version of T-Bird" message. Nothing I try fixes it. I made sure that both computers downloaded today's versions. It keeps giving me the "old version F you" message. Help!!!!

I am trying to reinstall Thunderbird on my computer using Windows 10 and I get a pop-up box requesting to sign in to my Google account and then an authentication error message. How do I get past this?

When clicking the "cloud icon" ("get all new messages") I would expect it to check all accounts. But it only check the account that is currently displayed (not the others). Is this a known bug? Is there a setting for this?

Hi,

I've just updated my Thunderbird for Windows to 151 and I got this nasty surprise (this is why I hate updates these days).

The message list in dark mode, in a table view, now has this awful pitch black background instead of the normal dark brown as it used to have. It looks OK in cards mode, but I don't like cards mode.

I certainly hope this is a bug and not by design. Can this be fixed, please? It looks terrible, it's hard to look at, like old Windows 10 dark mode or some high contrast accessibility mode.

Thank you!

I updated to TB151.0 and lost access to my Outlook e-mail and calendar. After re-loading OWL my e-mail returned. However, I am unable to re-link on a read/write/synchronize basis to my Outlook calendar. I have tried adding a new calendar in every way I can think of and nothing works. I am tired of fighting with TB over this and am about to dump it and set up my accounts on Outlook. Please help me give TB one more chance.
