Since yesterday I have Thunderbird nebula 128.2.3esr on my Windows 10. But I cannot find my calendar and the new left sidebar isn't available, but only a little button on the left upper corner with seven button without function. I've tried a lot, I cannot find any description about a same failure in the Internet.

I have two iCloud mails in Thunderbird. The older one runs great. For the other new one - same settings - mails sent often appear totally blank in the sent folder. Going to the iCloud webmail, sent messages appear totally normal and mails are sent to destination without any problem. I tried everything, no avail. Also weird is I have two "sent" folders (for no clear reason). Both have this issue, not always. See screenshot of iCloud webmail.

I am getting these messages when trying to reply: mail.iinet.net.au587 and Sending of message failed. Peer's Certificate has expired. The configuration related to must be corrected. I would like to know what to do to correct this.

Searching calendar events in Thunderbird used to search both title and description fields. For example, if I searched for "dental" it would find events titled "Dental appointment" and also events with "dental" somewhere in the description field. Now it only seems to search the title. I've always put most of the information in the description field, and I use the calendar primarily as a diary record of my life and things I need to keep track of, so this is a major downgrade in terms of usability for me. Is there any way to still search the description field?

When I opened Thunderbird today, I was greeted by a giant red message warning, "This is an unsupported version of Thunderbird!! Thunderbird monthly releases are not considered stable for general use." By following a provided link to the "latest stable version of Thunderbird," I found that was version 128.3.0esr.

I did not request an update. I did have Settings> General> Updates set to "Automatically install updates", so I suppose that is how I got this version. But how was I pushed to an unsupported version? Do I need to turn off automatic installs to be protected from this in the future?

Why can't I retrieve a website that I am directed to in a Thunderbird email? Usually the website is in "blue" and can be retrieved by a simple click, these are just in black.

After the 128.3.0 update nothing in my email works. I can't send or receive emails. I wrote and email and since it wouldn't send I wanted to save it and could not save it. Initially I got the message that my email accounts were black listed. That stopped and I got another error message that kept repeating itself. I am not sure what that said anymore. I rebooted my computer and now it just doesn't work. I checked my settings and they are still correct.

Is there any way that I can go back to the last update? Is there anything I can do to fix this one without losing all of my saved emails? I am using Windows 11.

Hi, tbird 128.3.0 esr 64b w11p. A prob new to me. Only for MS outlook mail (aka office365 email, but no ofc365 on my laptop, just the email in tbird). -in unified folder view, my MS mail acct (it still has the "hotmail.com" address, but works), is not present -- that's the problem. A workaround is that I can choose both "unified" and "all" views together -- but while the MS mail acct now appears in the folder pane at the top, as well as in its own "place" at the "accounts" area below, that MS mail acct not longer has its messages appearing in the "message list" pane. I have to go to MS Mail's own place below, in the folder pane (as stated above),to see its msgs. in msg pane.

 I could use the "all" view, but it's not as nice & I never have had to choose that before this prob.

- I did run "repair folder" for MS mail's own inbox (again, below, in its own place below, in folder pane, accts). And I restarted t-bird.No change in behavior, unified view does NOT list my hotmail emails.

I have used & am comfortable w/config ed, but only when I have the proper instructions you may post in your potential reply (I am not a coder).

Please advise, thank you.

I am maxing out my Comcast email space allowance (10 gb) and want to move it all to my PC. (i don’t want an encrypted backup, but something readable.) I thought I could use Thunderbird and set up a POP3 account on Thunderbird with the option to leave emails on the server. It downloaded only the Inbox, not the subfolders. I read on the Forum that that is what happens with POP3. My understanding of IMAP is that I don’t get the actual email on Thunderbird, because it stays on the Comcast server.

Is there a way to download all those emails and folders to Thundebird (to keep) and then delete them from Comcast? I don’t plan to use the Thunderbird client for my day-to-day email, simply to store the last 10 years of email.

I have tried to research the forum articles so that I don’t bother anyone needlessly, but can’t find an answer. Thank you.

bold text Previously I put the mouse on bottom of very long list and pushed them up until I had a workable IN BOX list. They were not lost they kept the displayed list the same as I deleted emails after reading.

When I open Thunderbird (Mozilla), my files are not current. In other words, the most recent emails, probably since the last time I used Thunderbird, in my file folders are missing. I have tried changing the server settings but I think they are correct. Please be patient with me, I am unfamiliar with all the terminology, etc. Also, when I first enter Thunderbird, it does not recognize my password. A window opens with the message "Login to server imap.postoffice.net with username john.fn@usa.net failed." That message also appears when I click on Get Messages. Thanks for any help.

I already tried putting Thunderbird as a shortcut into the C:\Users\<myAccountName>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo (aka. shell:SendTo) folder. But when I use the "Sent to" menu and select Thunderbird, the file to be attached just gets openned by Windows as if I had double-clicked on it. Thunderbird does not even open a new message.

I also tried changing the call of the Thunderbird shortcut in the SendTo folder to: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe" -compose attachment= At least, then Thunderbird opens a new message. But it just writes the path\filename of the file to attach into the attachment section. When I then try to send the message, Thunderbird says it cannot access it under this path.

How are you doing this? Thanks!

I have five email accounts defined on a hosting service. On my computer in Thunderbird I have my main account on the left side followed by one of the other five. Then comes Local Folders and two more email accounts. I can retrieve email into my personal account and the one above Local Folders. I can't retrieve into the other two accounts. My wife's computer has HER personal account and one of the ones into which I can't retrieve. She can't retrieve into that one either. I have checked details of the definitions of the accounts on the hosting service and in Thunderbird on both of our computers and can't find anything different on the accounts that don't retrieve mail. I have an Android tablet running the K9Mail client and have my personal account and one of the problem accounts defined. I setup the other problem email account there and got complaints about it not being from a trusted site. I went ahead anyway, went to my personal account and sent a message to the new problem account and was able to go to that account and retrieve the message. What am I missing?

Hi everyone,

Im doing a clean install and i dont want Thunderbird to sync and download some emails.

What im trying to achieve is to download every email to use offline and be in sync with the Gmail account but only the most recent ones. And i did this:

Inbox: So far in Gmail i moved alot of emails from the Inbox to another folder. How can i disable that folder to sync in Thunderbird? Because as soon as i log in, every folder starts to sync and download automatically.

Outbox: I did some research and its seems that is not possible to move emails from outbox to another folder. Is there any way that i can only download emails only after specific date?

in the older TB for a loooong time, adr book and inbox showed up under WINDOW item new TB changed that and sometimes shows under TOOLS menu but in inbox it doesn't in compose/edit window it shows. See attached

I have been trying to get my Comcast email configured for days with no luck. When I try to log in using my Comcast password I get a screen that shows "Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://login.xfinity.com/login" on this server. Reference #18.321c2e17.1727662977.283cff2b https://errors.edgesuite.net/18.321c2e17.1727662977.283cff2b. I have allowed access to third party apps on my Comcast account and I am able to access my email on the Comcast website with no problem. I saw something about disabling IPV6 but it said to go to Preferences or Options in the Settings menu. My version of Thunderbird (latest) doesn't have these menu options. I have tried various IMAP and SMTP Port settings I found on the internet and nothing works.

What are the settings for Comcast email in Thunderbird?

Hi. I keep trying to delete messages from my AOL IMAP inbox, and they do go to the trash, which I then delete. But then the messages all return to my Inbox. Is this an AOL issue, or a known issue with Thunderbird? Any solutions?
