I use Spectrum (brighthouse.com) for my email server. I am using it on my current laptop. I have tried to put the same settings onto my new laptop and it won't work. I have contacted Spectrum and they are the correct settings. Now it is asking for a new password. that also didn't work. I am still using my previous password on my old laptop and that is working.

I add this to my settings question of earlier this afternoon but I don't think it's settings. I signed into att at 5:45 to find four identical messages from att about a sign in at 5 pm (which was me). Then I went to Thunderbird and, instead of my mail boxes under my email address, there were three empty folders all entitled !%26! followed by an endless string of capital As. Have I lost every thing? Have I been hacked so quickly? Can I recover my mail boxes?

Hope I hear from some one. Thank you. Marjorie

I don't know how to retrieve my prior question which was about Thunderbird not being able to retrieve my messages even though I had thought I put my new att password into the right spots.

This is the screen I get when I follow the instructions from the first denial screen:

400. That’s an error.

The server cannot process the request because it is malformed. It should not be retried. That’s all we know.

the last time I received an email update on my desktop PC (Win 7 Pro) was 4:08PM (yes, PM) for one account and 4:44AM (yes, AM) for the other account. On my phone, the 4:08PM is the same but the other email account recd an update at 3:17PM.

I am receiving email, am able to read and reply to my email; but I continually get a warning box that the password to pop.(my address) failed. I have an IMAP connection. This warning box freezes what I am doing until I cancel it. If I x-out the box, it closes the window I am in. Annoying as hell... Make it stop!

All my email accounts are hosted at siteground. I recently created a new domain, website, and two email addresses there. Siteground support tested the new email addresses and said they work fine. But when trying to set up these new email accounts in Thunderbird - 128.5.2esr (32-bit) - I keep getting error messages. I know the passwords are correct because I checked them in Settings. After the first step in setup, I always get "Configuration found at email provider". If I click "Done", I get "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password". If I click "Configure manually" and then "Re-test", I get "Thunderbird failed to find the settings for your email account".

When I try to open EML file stored on NAS that was previously stored using the same Thunderbird app (version 142.0 (64 bits)) the preview is blank (photos attached) although the message source shows content. When I copy this EML file from NAS to desktop and then open, the preview shows up correctly.

How to make it possible to open the EML straight from NAS and show its contents in the preview window.

Some time ago, with the previous (unknown) version of Thunderbird it was possible to open the EML straight from NAS and show its prebiew correctly.

Unable to connect

Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at mesp.finance.gov.bd.

   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.

Hello All, We've used Thunderbird for a long time now. We recently added a few more computers to the office.

When we try to add an email account via File>New>Email Account We fill in the two fields and click to proceed and the swirling circle just keeps going forever.

As a test we tried to add extra email accounts to our existing computers and the same thing happens.

All thunderbird versions are: 140.2.1esr (64-bit)

When i google this problem it suggests adjusting the firewalls or antivirus settings. It just seems strange that this problem would start all of a sudden.

thank you for any help. zac

Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at data.digital.costco.com.

[redacted] problem you [redacted] im having issues with the video and ads as all of my apps are disabeld nothing works and firefox it self causing probs and no one is helping out.

I'm using Thunderbird 128.11.0esr (64-bit) on a Win 10 system, and my email host is DigitalSpace, a Verizon company.

As of this morning, TB no longer gives me a password dialog when I start the app. So, I forced that dialog by sending out a dummy email, and I enter my credentials when asked. Outgoing messages go out without incident.

But even though my password is accepted for SMTP use, the POP incoming function no longer responds to File/Get New Messages for . None of the selections will download any emails.

The banner at the very bottom of the Thunderbird window usually displays a "retrieving emails" message yesterday, as usual. But now this banner is completely blank, nothing happening.

DigitalSpace has given me what they say is the correct POP Server name, and they specify that I should use Port 110. I've attempted to reach the POP server by its name and by its IP4 address, but I see the same fail with both: No response.

Note 1: I'm deleting all cookies at every log-off. Is there any chance that this is affecting TB's performance?

Note 2: Non-Mozilla fix websites have suggested accessing the TB Profile folder, and deleting file global-messages-db.SQLITE . I tried that, but it didn't fix the problem.

==> Can you tell me if there are any additional settings that I need to adjust?

Thanks very much, Bill Bailey Santa Clara, CA

i have problem with setting up my proxy. i choose manual proxy configuration, fill the HTTP Proxy & port. When i click ok then input username & password but it keep asking for the username & password. (I have asked the proxy provider they say the proxy is good, no problem)

What settings do you suggest to allow access to my att email account? I am using Thunderbird V 140.0.1 esr on an iMAC running iOS 10.15.7. The attached screenshots show the results of attempts to re-establish the account and the resulting error messages. It appears that the server settings need tweaking, since the user name and password are those I use to log in successfully to the att account with both Firefox and my iPhone. Thank you, Vince K.

I travel to two different locations a few times a year. I use the same basic "computer" for each one, though they're far apart. It works through a "sneaker network," where data files, profiles, etc, are copied to a portable hard drive and then copied to the next computer, so they're fairly identical.

The problem is that this last time (and I've been doing this for perhaps about 3 years), Firefox has refused to do anything online. I can use it offline, but not online. The "work online" is unchecked, so it should be online. But it refuses to do anything.

After several Firefox reboots, windows reboots, checking everything, Firefox still does nothing.

Currently I'm using Waterfox and Edge. Both work fine. Thunderbird works fine.

I've had this problem since Tuesday night. So about 48 hours now, and nothing at all.

The way I transfer from one computer to another without losing email or current Firefox status is to copy the newest profile over, delete the old, and then copy the current program, as well.

Thus, the program is up to date, as is the profile, but all I get when I type in any address is that dot thing at the top, going side to side.

Thank you in advance.

With Thunderbird, the "New Message" button changes from green to red for about 10 minutes, then goes back to green for a time. During red, nothing can be sent out, and incoming emails go to junk or trash.

What is happening and how is it fixed? Wm

When I click on Firefox and the to my email it says there is a problem with my internet. My internet is up and running fine. I have done everything it says Firefox can't connect to the server at mail.yahoo.com.
