Every time I open thunderbird I get a blank screen with this message, 'Edge: Too many requests' over the top of the thunderbird screen. This screen stays on my desktop after I close Thunderbird and I have to change my screen resolution in order to close the screen. Can you help please? Martyn Smith

So there was a problem with AOL today and I'm using Thunderbird for my Verizon account now AOL is back up and running but on my computer Thunderbird will not let me log in to The Host keep saying it's failing?

got a new PC, trying to add my email accounts to thunderbird. everything is working except for my hotmail account. I have tried reinstalling, changing settings etc. I removed my account from thunderbird on the old PC tried adding it to the new pc and I just keep getting this error "Exchange auth error" I cannot change the 02uthentic type as i cant add the outlook account. I have no problems adding it back to the thunderbird on the old pc. I have changed my password 4 times thinking it was the problem but nothing. this is what i get everytime.

I have signed into the web and made sure the "imap is on to allow other apps, programs etc" still get nothing. I downloaded the thunderbird app to my phone to try and i have no problem adding my hotmail account. it's only on this new pc with thunderbird, both tunderbirds are the same build# 140.2.0 on both new and old pc.

any help would be awesome, thank you

I have had an ongoing problem with Thunderbird being unable to log into the various mail servers that I use. I've tried repeatedly to solve this problem and have been able to cure it in the past by clearing the cache, but it recurs over and over again. I cannot keep wasting my time like this. I'm an independent contractor and I need to be able to use my e-mail client consistently. I've got work to do! This morning, it's suddenly decided that it cannot log into any of the three services that I use.

Is there a lasting solution to this problem? If not, please tell me and I'll move on peacefully, but please don't keep me chasing my tail for something that cannot be fixed.

I have tried many times to get Thunderbird to connect to my Gmail account. Whatever I do, it always ends by saying "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password. I have followed all the instructions I can find. The Thunderbird release is 140.4.0esr (64-bit) Running Windows 10.

I have set up an "app password" in Google. Config in Tbird set to IMAP.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

why does firefox blocks incoming http conection to localhost:8080 when I try to obtain a google oauth2 token using oauth2.py ?. The Google server returns the token via http to loaclhost:8080 and the port is blocked by firefox.

Hello, I want to convert my POP account to an IMAP account. I am following the procedure for creating a new email account. I enter the account name, email address, and password. But at the end, I always get the following message: Authentication error. Unable to connect to the server. The configuration, username, or password are probably incorrect.

Please note that I am using the same name, email address, and password as for my POP account, as recommended in the online help.

Best regards Dominique Chevalier

Hi All, I have been sending emails through Android Thunderbird, but they aren't being synced to the server, so I can't see them anywhere else. I've set the Sent folder to sync (as well as the Inbox). Pressing the sync button just spins the indicator, but doesn't actually sync. When I try to move or copy messages, an error comes up saying that messages can't be copied or moved that aren't synconised. How can all my messages (sent, inbox, everything) be synced so that I can see them everywhere? I've just turned on sync debugging, will see the results soon.

https://read.amazon.com/kindle-library is now not allowing me to go onto the website. I've tried talking to Amazon customer support but they can't find a problem on their end. It says:

The connection has timed out

The server at read.amazon.com is taking too long to respond.

   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.

I haven't had a problem with the website before and every other website I have tried works fine. It's just that one. I have added it to my exceptions list for add ons but it didn't fix it.

My TB upgraded to V141 today and I lost my google calendar and maybe my contacts too. The contacts are there but I don't think that they are syncing anymore. Calendar appointments missing altogether.

We are about to switch from one internet provider to TMobile. Will I have to do anything in order to maintain my email through Thunderbird? I am clueless. After many months, I just got Thunderbird working again and don't want to lose it!

I have been using Thunderbird for many years. I have 4 accounts that have all been set up and working fine. This morning the 2 yahoo.com accounts stopped working. I logged in to the impacted accounts using a web browser and password just fine. I then updated Thunderbird to 116.0 to see if that would fix the problem, but it did not. The outlook and gmail accounts are working fine, for now.

When Thunderbird attempts to download mail for the yahoo accounts, I get a large pop-up window with "Edge: Too Many Requests". The pop-up window is blank except for that error message. I get the small pop-up with the Authentication Failure message. Sometimes I get Retry, Enter Password or Cancel. But I never see a window that will allow me to enter my password.

I can send/receive mail from the accounts while logged in via a browser but authentication fails within Thunderbird.

I try to access my messages from an outlook.com account with Thunderbird mac. I get the error message "the STAT command did not succeed". This happened suddenly today without changing any parameter. POP is enabled on this account. Moreover on another mac with Thunderbird everything is correct with the same account. Cookies are enabled I tried changing OAuth2 to normal and changing back. No sucess. What could I try next? Thanks.

When I open Thunderbird, I now get a message window asking for a User Name and password for both Caldav and Carddav.

I did not change anything in my setup and they started to appear.

Can anyone tell me how to stop these pop-ups from appearing ?

Screenshots are attached.

Thanks, David.

Currently whenever I try to pay for something via PayPal on mobile Firefox, it opens an about:blank page and never redirects. I am able to pay using PayPal just find when accessing via a PC. Unsure if there’s anything going wrong my end or if this is an issue Firefox mobile currently has. Having this issue on IOS on version 144.1

I was using MS outlook and recently I could not connect. Apparently ATT made a change so that instead of a password you need a Secure email Key. Since I needed to make a change I thought I'd try Thunderbird mail, but I still need the KEY. After a number of efforts with the ATT AI and human support people I could not find where the Key is entered on ATT. Now I know this forum is about Thunderbird and not ATT, but there must be Thunderbird users that have ATT and have made a seccussful connection. There are a few ATT help pages that outline how to do this, but each time I look at my ATT profile I can not find where to enter the Secure Mail Key. Is there anyone that can help me with this? THanks Mike

Hello,

I have had this Yahoo account from the days they were only starting to provide free mail boxes. For the last 10 years or more I have never actually connected to my account on Yahoo, but only through Thunderbird on my PC and another mail client on my smartphone.

Few months ago the email client on the smartphone ceased connecting to the Yahoo account: it started redirecting to a Yahoo page to enter login credentials, which I did but then would tell me that it needs to confirm it was really me and send me a verification code to a recovery email. I don't have that email anymore, so doesn't help me. I don't have my phone linked to my Yahoo account either (that was the only other option they suggested). So I left it alone since I had no issues keep using my mail through Thunderbird.

However, today Thunderbird started doing the same - it is redirecting to a Yahoo page which after asking for login information, is sending a verification code to the recovery email which I don't have access to anymore.

There appears to be no way to contact Yahoo at all. The only way is the paid support which I opted for, but the automated answer I got was that the Premium support was not supported in my area and I had to go to online resources.

Everything is linked to this email account of mine. I must find a way to regain access to it. Please help me.

I'm trying to access my https://mypay.dfas.mil account, but, though previously all was well, now an error message tells me that you "can't connect to the server".

I have a network connection, but apparently Firefox may no longer have "permission to access to the web". I'm sure this is wrong because I can still access pretty much everything in the normal way, including other government sites, such as Social Security, using the Login.gov portal, though mypay is not listed as 'connected.'

What happened, and how do I fix it? Also, the error message says that I should "Check that Firefox has permission". How do I do that?
