I have Thunderbird set up to pull email from 5 different email accounts/servers. For two of these (ultimately the same host but two different email addresses) I have a problem with certificates. Every so often I notice that nothing is being picked up from those accounts. If I explicitly click "Get messages" for those accounts I get a certificate exception, tell Thunderbird to accept the exception and then it will pull mail from those accounts for the next several days/weeks. I assume at some point the exception times out or something changes with the email host after a while and Thunderbird stops pulling in mail for those accounts again. It's frustrating that I have to notice there is no mail coming from those accounts so I can do the "Get messages" bit to deal with the exception.

I would like to either find a set up where accepting the exception lasts for ever once I've said it's fine;

OR

I would like to have the certificate error message come up if Thunderbird has a problem with those accounts during normal daily start-up it when I start up. It just seems odd that the error isn't reported during normal start-up but is reported if I click "get messages".

Thanks in advance for any suggestions made.

Using TB version 102.10.1. Been recently getting messages from three different senders that I wish to delete before they hit my inbox. I read the help article at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/blocking-sender and followed the directions to set up a Block List filter, adding the senders to it. It seems to work automatically for two of the senders but not the other...I have to manually run the filter to make it work. Seems kinda pointless when, if it hits my inbox, I can just delete it anyway. Any ideas why it is still getting through the filter and how to fix it? See screenshots attached.

I am changing the password authentication on two email accounts (two different Windows laptops) from "normal password" to "Oauth". Same version of TBird on each laptop. As the last step in this simple process, a GoDaddy window/web page pops up asking to verify Microsoft365 account credentials. On one laptop (Win7), this window contains a normal display with fields to enter password, etc. I am able to complete the process on this laptop, and it works fine. On the second laptop (Win11), the process is the same, and the same window appears, but it is blank. There are no fields to enter the required data. I've worked on this for a week now, changing default browsers, various settings, and have spent much time on the phone with GoDaddy support, all to no avail. I suspect the problem is in TBird, but I have no idea how to find it. Support for "Normal Password" authentication has been dropped, so this email account will not work until I change authentication to "Oauth". Help.

On the landing page for youtube, I used to be able to right mouse click on a video thumbnail and select "open image in a new tab" from the context menu and see the thumbnail in a new tab window.

After recent updates, (now using 111.0.1 64bit , on windows 10 pro), this feature no longer exists. It's not a change on youtube because the thumbnail is still recognized as an image and can be opened in a new tab when I use Edge browser. It seems like Firefox no longer recognizes the thumbnail as an image.

Is there any setting I can change to get the feature of "open image in new tab" back into the context menu. or somehow get Firefox to recognize the thumbnail as an image ?

What do you suggest i use for an email program if you go forward with the Microsoft like abortion of Thunderbird? The new Beta version looks like crap what is wrong with the old layout??????? It looks like the Microsoft borg has infested your software department.

I installed the new beta version it pretty much looks 100% unusable and I almost lost all my emails when doing the install. fortunately I backed up the proper folders so I could go back the the usable version of Thunderbird.

Back in April three Security Exception windows started popping up in TB 102.11.2 (not sending mail or retrieving mail) and if I view it, the certificate shows an expired date. The port being accessed is 2080.

  host2016.hostmonster.com:2080

I don't seem to be missing any mail and they just popup on their own at times (something in the background?). I use IMAP settings and Eset as my AV. It doesn't happen to my wife's TB install and she uses the same email server and AV. It happens on all four computers where I have my account being accessed by TB.

I have scanned the PC with ESET NOD32 and Malwarebytes and neither reports viruses. I don't want to override the warning so I have to close the three windows over and over and over and I am going mad....

I turned off the eset feature that says to ask if a SSL exception is reported. I set it to block, not ask, and rebooted. The popups continue and the email provider support says their certificates are up to date.

Anyone know why port 2080? Could it be related to something other than inbound and outbound email that TB is trying to access?

I’m trying to transfer my iPhone Firefox tabs (All 100+ of them) to my Mac laptop Firefox. I have already signed in before and I would really like some other way to transfer tabs than to tediously click every tab from the Firefox account drop down menu. The Firefox help page for setting up sync don’t help since I still need to click every one of those tabs from the drop down menu. If there is something I’m missing about the process can someone please explain it to me, and it would be greatly appreciated if someone to help me find a way to transfer my tabs all at once.

Thunderbird error message reads "Login to server mail.btinternet.com with username my.name@btinternet.com failed." After several prompts to Retry/Enter New Password/Cancel, I eventually receive another message "Server mail.btinternet.com has disconnected. The server may have gone down or there may be a network problem." Neither of these are true: I can access the server via webmail (using Firefox) with or without VPN, and my gmail and ionos email accounts are working so it isn't a network problem. I see that the problem has arisen for others, but the responses have all been archived. Any suggestions?

This happened last year and you managed to fix it; now Youtube seem to have blocked downloading again. Geoffrey D Dean, Australia.
