I do not see server settings option. Under account settings, I see outgoing server (SMTP) but not incoming! PLEASE HELP as my service provider changed their email client server settings and unless I can update, I cannot use Thunderbird.

Good morning, I installed Thunderbird - 128.3.2 - on a new computer with windows 11 PRO 64bit. My email is - carlofarioli@hotmail.com - the problem is that only the INBOX and TRASH folders appear. I can't find the SUBSCRIBE function to activate all the missing folders. On the old computer with windows10 PRO, Tunderbird 115.5.0 is installed and everything works fine... Can you help me solve the problem, thanks

I even extend the connecting time out mins to 2 mins still failed A question, can thunderbird be used on Chinese mainland for gmail accounts, by using VPN? I highly doubt.

I can insert outlook accounts into thunderbird easily and log onto oauth2 pages of these accounts.

Hello, when i fullscreen video on youtube video stops buffering. When i end fullscreen buffering immediatly starts and everything is okay. Back and forth. I tried: reinstall to lastest mozilla release, disable addons, stoubleshoot mode, increase cache in about:config and other public solutions i can google. When i look on "Statistic for experts" on youtube there are three bars and it shows: Normal size player: Connection Speed - some amount of kbps (works) Network Activity - some amount of KB (works) Buffer Health - some amout of s (works) Fullscreen: Connection Speed - some amount of kbps (works) Network Activity - 0 KB (doesn´t work) Buffer Health - 0 s (doesn´t work)

I use the latest Thunderbird on the latest (Sonoma) MacOS. Whichever filelink service I try to add (in Settings > Composition > Attachments) that service appears with an exclamation mark in a yellow triangle (and I am unable to send links to large files). I thought that for Dropbox and for Box that might have been as a result of the limited file sizes allowed to be sent using my free accounts. However, for Thunderbird Send, WebDAV and *cloud after clicking "Add to Thunderbird" and then clicking "Add" to provide permissions I also get the same exclamation mark error indication. (refer image 1)

Perhaps the problem is related to selecting "Create link for Send service instance" (refer image 2) - I can't make the selection stick - when I close the tab and reopen it, that option is unselected.

What am I doing wrong or not doing? Help appreciated.

Hello, "desktop view" is very useful, and I use it for LinkedIn because the "mobile mode" is shitty (I guess to make/force people to install the proprietary and closed source LinkedIn app).

I found that "desktop view" is stopping working while activated, when you always keep a tab opened for days... I have to close the tab and open a new one to make "desktop view" working again.

I found too that "open in a new tab" action is not inheriting the view mode of the parent tab and that an issue when browsing the same website.

Could it be possible to have "desktop view" enable by default based on visited website?

After a routine system restart due to display driver crash my Mozilla Firefox ceased to work, displaying a broken link. After some messing around I decided to reinstall the application, but when I did it was an entirely new instance with none of my local saved data (bookmarks, passwords, history etc). I've been able to restore my bookmarks, but not my passwords. I've found the relevant key4.db and logins.json files pertaining to the older intall, but I have no idea how (if possible) to install them, and I assume there would only be a compiled csv if I created it.

Help!

I'm using thunderbird for gmail account, and I struggle to mark some events notification as completed when they are deleted using gmail interface. They keep on poping up but when I hit `Dismiss` it gives me this error: ``` Status Code: 2147500037, The request cannot be processed.

Server Replied with 400 If you're seeing this message after snoozing or dismissing a reminder and this is for a calendar you do not want to add or edit events for, you can mark this calendar as read-only to avoid such experience in future. To do so, get to the calendar properties by right-clicking on this calendar in the list in the calendar or task view. ```

I don't want to make my calendar read-only because I'm still gonna use it but I can't remove these annoying pop-ups because of the error. Please help what can I do

Since updating Thunderbird lately to 128.3.3esr (64-bit), "Open in conversation" is grayed out, SHIFT+CTRL+O shortcut also doesn't work. There is a small chance it happened on a previous update, I'm not sure. This function is something I use regularly so this bothers me greatly. I tried rebuilding the global database according to https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/rebuilding-global-database with no luck - the problem persists. The file now has 1,18 MB, I'm quite certain it was significantly larger before. The problem occurs in all accounts I have and it worked on all of them before. Threading itself works properly if I go to View>Sort by>Threaded so the messages are recognized as threads properly.

Malwarebytes keeps blocking Mozilla files that seem to originate from it's folder in my laptop as riskware. Is this something I should make exceptions for? Or is it riskware. I'm running Win 11

In the previous version of Firefox I could install a multiple language keyboard layouts in the upper right row. I had to reset everything with a new HDD and Ubuntu 24, which comes with Firefox for Linux as well. Now I can't find how to install those shortcuts that I had before. I need to use Slovenian, Italian, Spanish, German and US keyboards (UK is standard with UK English as primary choice). Thank you for your help.

Hello

I use Firefox 132.0.1 under Fedora 14 Linux. Whenever I click an urls in another application (e.g. Libreoffice, Keepass...) a new tab is opened in Firefox (according to Firefox's settings), but Firefox itself does not pop up in the foreground, it remains in the background. I highly appreciate the setting 'open links in tabs instead of new windows'. But FF only comes to foreground in case I deactivate 'open links in tabs instead of new windows'. How can I prevent FF to stay in the background in case 'open links in tabs instead of new windows' is enabled?

Thank you in advance

After update of TB to 128.4.3est via openSuse (15.5) the calendar no longer displays any events. Is this a settings problem? I read of this problem on Win and MAC but don't see any postings related to Linux. Another post said that events are stored and recoverable. Suggestions appreciated.

Think this is a bug report rather than a question.... anyway....

In case you don't know....

mbox files store emails with "From " on a new line recognised as the beginning of a new email (and thus the end of the last).

There are various formats, but a typical first line will be something like From - Fri, 20 Oct 2000 11:34:32 (sometimes the sender name is included here, sometimes the date format differs, probably due to history of client used, sometimes there's no dash; the actual information is still available in various other headers)

The problem is.....

When moving emails from one folder within Local Folders (I haven't tested imap folders, but that's not what I need), the information is stripped, leaving only "From " (followed by new line). The remainder of the email is fine, and moving folders whole retains all information.

I've tried drag and drop, and I've tried "Copy..." dialogues. I've tried message filters. I've also tried a couple of extensions (I presume they just use the built-in file moving code). All exhibit this behaviour.

(for info, I'm trying to rebuild my archive in a logical way from zillions of backups, and for whatever reason this behaviour spoils the ability to remove duplicates via the "Remove Duplicate Messages" add-on, which does cope otherwise - I'm trying to merge multiple folders from maybe 25 years(!). I haven't even started on my Outlook .pst archives!)

(Bonus - another one, which may be intentional - when moving emails from one folder to another, the source mbox file keeps all the moved emails, and only its .msf index is updated. Go to "Properties... Repair Folder"; the .msf is recalculated and all your moved emails reappear magically.)

Basically things work under the hood, but it's all a bit flaky.... ;-)

Anyway, thanks, and do as you will with all of this!  :-)

Firefox on Android has a "Collections" option,it is convenient displaying some websites on the startup page.But "Collections" seems not to be synced.It might be more useful if add the option to Sync List. Or it can be used as a specific section of the bookmark (but displayed on the startup page), similar to the bookmarks toolbar on PC. This makes it possible to sync frequently useful websites on both mobile and PC devices. Thank you for reading this.

I removed an account (membershipsec.KLcommunitychoir@gmail.com) from Thunderbird but I am still being asked to validate my ID for that account every time I look at my email. It's a Google page that is displayed but it seems to be Thunderbird that is triggering it. How do I stop it?

When asked to re-enter the appropriate password I enter the never ending merry-go-round......I have 6 addresses. Whilst it is possible to access then via their specific accounts held with Microsoft this is time consuming,hence the preference of Thunderbirdb which up until now has been trouble free for approx 15 years. This unnecessary development makes me wonder why I only need a user naame aand password to access via Microsoft. I have tried every method kindly provided by other users to no avail. Can anyone provide the correct server setting for both IMAP and SMTP? As I have said these 'new' authentification/s are in my opinion tantamount to using a sledgehammer to crack a walnut. I hope my explantion makes sense? Surely I cannot be alone?

two errors.

1. the folder the guardian on myemailaddress@gmail.com could not be found, so filters associated with this folder will be disabled. Verify that the folder exists, and the filters point to a valid destination folder

2.ditto....different folder....Linux.org on myemailadress etc etc.

In my research I came across a suggestion to alter the mozilla database : impa.gmail.com ....to....imap.googlemail.com I could not find the mozilla database, so I opened Account Settings/server settings, and changed the server name from : imap.gmail.com ....to... imap.googlemail.com

I need to receive emails to my email address destined for the two folders in question...Linux.org and the guardian....which I will definately have from Linux .org in the next few hours, and from the guardian maybe sometime this afternoon and if not definitely by 7:15am tomorrow morning. The time as i type this is 10:56am...guardian mail has already been received for today

If you have any alternative solution/thought, I will be most pleased to hear from you.

if my 'solution" works then this is definitely a google problem, not Thunderbird......but as usual thunderbird and others will be left to clean up their mess.

Edit to Add: I re enabled the Linux.org filter, and also changed its name from Info@Linux.org, to linux.org....and so far there is not another error thrown when I click on 'run now' in message filters....and the same applies to the guardian. Fingers Crossed !
