Thunderbird 社群討論區

I have been using Thunderbird Portable e-mail under Windows 10 for a number of years . About 4 months ago I installed on a Windows 11 computer - it worked for a few weeks, then one morning I received a message stating it will not run because a 16 bit program will not run in a 64 bit environment.

I am hoping that there will be a 64 bit portable version for Windows, based on my previous usage.

Would I be able to install the normal version on an external portable drive? When I go visiting, it is convenient to be able to take just the external drive. Currently, the external drive is a high capacity USB drive. However, if this is not possible, is the current Windows 11 version ready to go?

My current e-mail system is a long time DOS system via my ISP. That e-mail address is my only e-mail address, used for over twenty years. I would prefer not to have to change it.

What I have been doing is to use Thunderbird Portable to download my e-mails into Thunderbird on my computer, which allows me to store my e-mails offline for a financial year.

I am hoping to find an option to continue this by June 30.

Comcast/xfinity has replaced its e-mail with Yahoo mail I want to install and use Thunderbird instead I Have followed all the installation prodeedures but T bird will not connect/run. Has comcast made it impossible to use Thunderbird and if not, hoe do I get it to run

When I try to open Thunderbird it keeps giving me a message that it is trying trouble install a new helper tool and asks for my password. I do so, hit the Install Helper button, and then nothing ever happens. I get a spinning beach ball and it never opens no long how I wait. I would be very grateful for any suggestions or advice on what to do.

I want to install Mozila Email on my Windows 10 Laptop and want not to use the default version 150 but version 142. The support still downloads version 150 when I choose verso 142. What can I do to correct this?

Firstly, both laptops are working well. While one is still behaving quite normal, I am unable to install Mozilla Thunderbird on the other after having done a reset .. The "HUB" will NOT except my personal details i.e. email address & PW which I've used for years. I'll leave it at that for now ..

thunderbird Is working fine, but this message crops up every few minutes, and requires 4 - 8 Cancel clicks. I've tried "Open anyway", I've deleted and reinstalled the app several times, and tried the terminal command "xattr - cr" and dragging the app into the window. Is there a proper fix for this. V. grateful for any solution. TIA Brian

Hello!

I have installed Thunderbird 150.0 on an Ubuntu 24.04 desktop using a downloaded TAR installation method. I have done this, as I use OWL for Microsoft Exchange accounts. OWL works better with the current version of Thunderbird.

I have created a desktop launcher (thunderbird-150.desktop), which works fine, except that the software icon is the generic Gnome gear. I have read that specifying the WMClass correctly in the launcher file (in /usr/share/applications) is the solution, but this does not seem to work. It is current set as WMClass=thunderbird. I have also noticed that the /opt/thunderbird/icons folder does not contain the Thunderbird icon.

Can anyone help me to fix this annoying issue?

Many thanks!

The website https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/all/ provides portable download for Linux, but I seem to understand there's no such a version for Linux ARM (aarch64).

Is that planned in the future?

thanks in advance

I've been having a number of problems with Thunderbird recently and I'm hoping that deleting and reinstalling the app might help. But I worry that I will lose emails by doing this. I'm also wondering if the numerous folders I've set up will disappear as well. The issues I've been having, by the way, are emails consistently going into the wrong folder and, most recently, constantly being asked for my passwords. (I have emails from four email addresses being downloaded by Thunderbird.) I've had the password issue in years past, but it always seemed to resolve itself.

I have no idea what to do now that I have downloaded Thunderbird email on my Surface 4. I can't find any directions anywhere on how to get started with it.! Outlook, while not secure, was certainly easy to set up and use.

Bonjour, depuis des années ,je consulte ma boite mail : [edited]@free ,en clickant sur le symbole thunderbird dans ma barre de commande ! ces derniers jours je n'ai plus d'accés , en clickant je n'ai plus de réponse! Suite a cela j'ai redemandais à réinstaller Thunderbird dans mon ordi ,mais je n'y arrive pas ???

I have a costumer in my store that uses Thunderbird, it has worked fine for him for years without any issues.

But now for some reason random emails get saved to his desktop, and has no idea why that is happening.

I have checked settings to make sure it doesnt save anything to the desktop, the folder is set to save inside appdata/roaming

We have tried updating the program with no luck so far, just updated it again today. Costumer is nervous towards deleting the program and setting up his email again, I have told him that his emails and folders wont be effected. But still doesnt want us to do it.

So unless you can give confirmation that nothing will happen to his files and folders he wont let us reinstall the program.

Can you let us know if its a known bug or better yet, give us a solution, we would both be very grateful.

Kind regards

hallo Mozilla team,

Hello, I went to https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/ or perhaps it was from https://releases.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/ and downloaded the thunderbird-60.6.1.source.tar.xz package, unarchived it and am now stumped :) How to proceed from there?

1. Where can I find the release notes for Thunderbird versions?

2. I mistakenly installed v148.0 from the release channel, when I really want the ESR version. This article says, " "Still unsure which channel to use? Start with the Thunderbird Release channel. You can always switch later if your needs change." and this thread says that one can perform the necessary downgrade by simply deleting the compatiblity.ini file from the profile folder. However, the current release channel version (149) and the version I have installed (148.0.1) are far ahead of the ESR version (140.8.1). I have already configured 8 IMAP accounts and 4 add-ons and would like to retain my existing profile. Can I simply downgrade by deleting the compatiblity.ini file from the profile folder or do I risk data corruption due to changes to the data structures? Can I simply install ESR 140.8.1 over 148.0.1 or do I first need to uninstall 148.0.1?
