Hello, I have 5 email addresses - four I use regularly: TalkTalk1 (Default) and 2, Free-online and Googlemail (haven't upgraded to gmail), and one I haven't for ages (YahooMail). I cannot send emails from any, except from my TalkTalk(TT) default one. I have updated the TalkTalk new Outgoing server settings to the best of my ability, for TalkTalk2 (TT2), Free-online (FOL) and Googlemail (GM) - I can send screenshots for each if necessary: - Server names: all smtp.domain name.net, except FOL: relay.free-online.net (verified on several google searches) - Outgoing port: all changed to 587 - Connection security: all STARTTTLS - Authentication method: all 'Normal password' (I am assuming these would be the same as the ones in the saved login passwords section of Privacy & Security, except for GM which has Incoming server authentication OAuth2 but a normal password in the saved login Passwords) - User name: my email addresses, except for FOL: my name Details: Email providers: TalkTalk, Free-online (Plusnet), Googlemail ISP: Talktalk.net Operating system: MacOS Catalina 10.15.7 Thunderbird version: 102.8.0 Many thanks for your help, it is now the 8th day I spend on this (I am a senior not very techy person).

After reinstalling Thunderbird (102.7.1 (64-bit)) on Linux Mint I have a persistent authentication error with my gmail account, so I cannot send or receive my emails through Thunderbird.

- I am 100% sure of my password and that it has been entered correctly. - I have no antivirus (Linux does not need one). - Thunderbird is set to accept cookies. - OAuth2 is set as authentication method. - Connection security: SSL/TLS. - Servers: imap.gmail.com (port 993), smtp.gmail.com (port 465). - In my Google account settings Thunderbird has access to my account.

Many thanks for any help.

I just updated to FF 111.0. After restarting FF comes up but then nothing. After a bit of I got the option to force close it. I tried opening a Private Browser and that worked fine so I figured it was one of my add-ons. However after closing the Private Browser and trying opening normally again it worked just fine. Disable all of my add-ons and for the same issue.

Renamed my AppData/Roaming/Mozilla folder and starting as normal worked fine. What a giant pain in the <bleep> trying to set everything back up.

Performed some more science and noticed this. After setting my Mozilla folder back, starting FF, and looking at the TaskManager, There would be 3 processes, one of those after a bit of time would show in red as Not Responding (or words to that effect). Clicking the window a few times to get the force close dialog again. Trying to open FF again, it opened just fine.

So I'm tempted to blame something in the update that is causing this. Yes, I could just start with a fresh Mozilla folder and reinstall all of my add-ons and blah blah blah, but whose to say that after setting everything back up the way I had it the problem won't come back.

I have thought about rolling back to FF 110.0.1, and suppressing the update check.

I accidently powered off system (PC with Windows 10) without closing programs, including Thunderbird. After restarting the system and opening Thunderbird, TB crashed. I have tried numerous fixes:

  • Installed the latest version of TB (from 78.11.0 to 102.8.0)
  • Opening TB in Safe Mode (disabling all add-ons, reset toolbars & controls)
  • Uninstall & reinstall TB

All result in the Crash Reporter dialog, with Report Contents. I can supply the report contents. (It wasn't obvious how to attach to this forum post.)

One KB item (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1337785) suggested that the issue may have to do with session.json file. Based on the file timestamp, that seems likely. But I don't know how to edit this file to fix the problem.

I also created a new TB profile, with does not crash on startup, but I cannot get email properly configured.

I have hundreds (maybe 1000s) of email stored in TB that I cannot access.

I would greatly appreciate any help!

The Firefox built-in Picture-In-Picture works great and has great pictures, much better than Chrome addon PIPs. I noticed today it has gone through an update and the first difference I noticed is the "Back to tab" button has moved from bottom center to top left. As I said, the PIP of Firefox has a great design and features, but is missing one feature that would make it perfect. Can you please add a RED PROGRESS BAR at the bottom of the PIP box. For example, there is an "Enhancer for YouTube" addon PIP (not a regular PIP, but other type of PIP that pops up when scrolling down to comments section) which has that and it's very useful (please see attachment). And if that feature is added, the ideal and logical design would be to show the "red progress bar" while hovering over the PIP box, not an always-showing feature, just like a YouTube video red progress bar works.

Thank you, Arthur

Third party application(NAPA Tracs) changed their email method to send using their own email send via IMAP using Microsoft 365 servers. Email goes to the targeted recipient, and a copy goes to sent mail folder in Microsoft 365 web based email sent folder. Thunderbird no longer retrieves/receives a copy of that sent mail to place it in it's sent mail folder. That third party switched its logic with the latest release in Feb 2023 to stop sending using Thunderbird directly and send to the 365 IMAP server. Until that time all email sent by third party were captured in the Thunderbird sent folder.

I'm using Windows 10 and Firefox 110.0. I've refreshed, uninstalled, reinstalled, cleared cookies, cleared cache, used safe mode in Firefox; scanned for viruses; and tried other things the last two days to solve my problem without any success. The problem is recent! All of a sudden I have a couple websites which won't load properly but work correctly in other browsers. Firefox is my favorite browser so I'm hoping to get the problem fixed. Can anyone help me please? I don't know what else to try! Thank you for any help or suggestions. Example: Meijer.com correctly loads the homepage. I use Meijer.com to order groceries. However, when I try to search for a product a blank page is displayed. Please see images.

ADDITIONAL INFO: I have discovered Meijer.com will load correctly if I use 'Private browsing' mode. What would cause it not to load correctly when using the regular Firefox mode?

The website in question is called myautosmart.com and it's used to look up a lot of locksmith-related information for specific vehicles, among other things. It requires verification of locksmith status and a paid subscription to log in so probably no one will be able to test anything directly.

Device: This is on a brand new installation of windows 10 with up-to-date firefox version 111.0 Device name LockProDesktop Processor AMD Ryzen 3 5300G with Radeon Graphics 4.00 GHz Installed RAM 16.0 GB (15.4 GB usable) Device ID 501298E6-8A64-419C-9629-AA47D9BF4370 Product ID 00330-80000-00000-AA817 System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Pen and touch No pen or touch input is available for this display

Problem: Upon logging into the site, my username appears in the top right as if I am logged in, but every page continues to redirect to the login page as if I am not logged in at all, rendering the site unusable.

Steps tried: Logging in again Logging out and back in A cacheless reload (ctrl+F5) Restarting Firefox Restarting the PC Disabling all add-ons Enabling Troubleshoot Mode Contacting the website owners - they could not replicate the problem and assured me they tested it on a system running windows 10 and the latest version of Firefox.

Website works fine on Chrome, and in Firefox on another windows 10 pc I have, a windows 7 pc, a 15 year old iMac and a macbook pro. This is the only computer that has any issue.

Please let me know if you have any ideas.

Yesterday when Firefox 111.0 64 bit was installed, updated the unified extension button shows up and it cannot be made to not appear or hidden. I even tried to about:config and change the extensions.unifiedExtensions.enabled from true to false and restarted Firefox yet the extensions button still appears. On older foxfire versions could get rid of it by doing the above and it worked but this new version 111.0 64bit I cannot get rig of the extensions button icon that appears on the end of the tool bar. Please fix it so I don`t have to see this button in the Firefox toolbar at the end of it. I even had a computer online tech try and he says you have it fixed so it cannot be removed. I see others have complained about not being able to remove the button from the tool bar also..

I just downloaded and installed Thunderbird to use for my email because I have nothing but trouble with the Windows 11 Mail program on my computer. Apparently I've missed something critical in the set up because it doesn't access any of my emails. Even if I try to send myself an email it says the sending failed because the server was unable to access the mailbox. My email address is through Frontier, which uses Yahoo Mail to handle it's email. My email address is xxxxxx@frontier.com. When I check my settings on Thunderbird it has my correct email address for account name and email address, and under server settings it has my correct email address for user name, for server type says IMAP Mail Server, and for server name says imap.mail.yahoo.com. For port it says 993(default). I used to use Thunderbird on a previous laptop, with the same email address, and never had a problem. Can someone tell me what I might be missing? I will admit to being middle of the pack when it comes to being tech savvy, so don't get too technical please. Appreciate any help.

I see from a variety of articles across the web that I should be able to install and use a Linux version of Firefox, but I can't find info on this here on mozilla.org Which is my preferred source when it comes to Firefox :)

OSX Ventura 13.1, 102.9.0 (64-bit), Gmail imap, when Tbird applies filter to move message a strikethrough copy remains in inbox. A non strikethrough copy is in allmail. When I try to delete the ST copy in inbox it just removes the ST and the message remains. The left click menu delete works. None of these actions have any effect on the moved message. Messages are moved to Local Folders. When I select an unread message in the inbox it immediately changes to ST status. No messages have ST in Allmail. I tried to set the delete action to move messages to a "New trash" folder and most of the inbox vanished. The "Inbox" appears to be worthless and undependable. All I am trying to do is to have my filters work like they used to when I was using POP3. My wife's windoze machine is now having similar issues.

Yet again, even after a Thunderbird update, TB still refuses to honor its own promise to store certificate security exceptions "permanently". And to think that I set up these e-mail accounts so that I could keep using TB after Wild West Domains switched to MS Outlook. I notice from other Questions that this has been going on for years. Mozilla and Microsoft are becoming more alike every year, ever expanding "features" without fixing the old bugs. All the 9 images below were generated by TB on this day, December 30, 2022, after the same exceptions were confirmed at various times and dates: November 11, 23 & 28 and December 4, 10, 13, 20 & 23. If you are going to give us a check box that says the exception will be stored "permanently", then damn well keep your word.

I've been using Firefox for many years. I Like it. I have used the History and History's Search function quite a few times. I normally always had Firefox find an update but ask me to install. I did those. I now have v110.0.1 installed. I did that last week after I stupidly screwed something up to do with permissions on folders. Everything seems okay now, all are fixed (all my other programs work fine now) except that in Firefox History (Ctrl+Shift+H) I can only ever see "Today" under the "History" category. I can browse, bookmark, etc. just fine. I suppose there is some setting somewhere that I've messed up but I cannot find it. Can you help me such that it shows "Last x Days", months older, etc. ? BTW I also tried mozillaistoryview.exe and it also only shows "today". Nothing in my system has changed for about a week but I browse every day. Thanks.

BTW I'm on Win10_Pro/64 whichever build/update is current.
