Hello support, When starting Thunderbird (v 115.4.1) it crashes after a few seconds even in safe mode with error message "Failed to open curl lib from binary, use libcurl.so instead". DB crash reports have been submitted (see e.g. bp-28dbde9c-184d-4f7b-ae3a-f115b0231121). I reinstalled Thunderbird as well as curl (located in /usr/bin) but the problem remains ! Please advice ! Thank you,

Jerry

I have 5 email addresses on my ISP account, 4 are fine. The other will not send reporting Authtication failure.

I have removed that address from Thunderbird & tried to add it again but the configuration fails.

I can send from the issue address using my ISP's web mail. I know the username & password are correct. It also works fine on my phone.

The problem seems to be Thunderbird.

With increasing frequency, when I open Yahoo in Firefox, there are no photos on the site and I can't access my email. In order to fix this, I have to shut off my computer and do a clean reboot. Then it works for a while, but then, all of a sudden I have the problem again. When I use a different browser (Chrome, Edge), I never have this problem. I thought it was Ghostery that was interfering, because Ghostery does screen out a lot of stuff, so I turned Ghostery off. It made no difference. What solution do you have to offer for this problem? I really don't want to switch to Chrome or Edge, because Firefox's general user interface is so far superior, but the issue I have described is a serious one. (There are two or three other websites that also don't work with Firefox when it comes to user doing data input on the site, but I'll be sending a separate inquiry on that).

Thank you, Alan Rosenbaum

Hello,

I am using Thunderbird as my one and only e-mail programme on my laptop to avoid collection of personal data. However, all the time I get pop-ups from Microsoft (see uploaded image), tempting me to allow Microsoft to collect these very data that I want to avoid. I have to either click on cancel (annuleren) or allow (accepteren). I always click on cancel (annuleren) or on the X in the upper righthand corner. But during the move in Thunderbird, the same Microsoft message pops-up. How can I get rid of these annoying pop-ups?

best regards Joost Versteeg

Your instructions for unthreading do not work. The commands you suggest do not appear in my "View" folder. And I do not want to unthreads many dozens of folders manually.

Please provide guidance on how to fix this, or I will have to abandon Thunderbird (which I have used loyally for many years) or work via the Gmail platform (ugh).

I am using release 115.4.3 of Thunderbird. Now when I want to print an email it only allows for a pdf file to be saved. there is no choice of a printer given. How do I solve this? Using windows 10.

Hi, I am unable to send e mails to g mail account holders, my domain host says i need to add a string configuration to my SPF record? Where do I obtain this please. I am not at all tech savvy!!

I have lost many of the emails stored in local folders. I know they were there about 6 months ago, but now they are not. Although I will probably never want to read most of them, there are some which I need. I will be ditching Thunderbird if I can't get a solution - I am as certain as I can be, that I have not done anything to cause this, and am appalled that it could happen. It seems that emails from the last 2 or 3 years are there (although I am not convinced there is a consistent date. What on earth has happened??

I want to use a command option to open a new blank tab in a specified portable instance of Firefox using a specified profile.

I constructed my command like this:

"Path-to-Firefox-executable" -profile "Path-to-Profile" -new-tab "about:blank"

It partially works (it opens the correct instance of Firefox and uses the correct specified profile) however it always opens about:newtab instead of about:blank.

Seeing as I am specifying the exact page to open, any New Tab settings in the browser should not matter, and I should just get the page that has been specified in the command.

If I manually type about:blank into the url bar, then a blank page opens as expected, so the url is correct, it just won't work for me as part of the above command line.

Does anybody else have this issue? How can I get this to work correctly?

I live out in the country now. I have the only internet provider who comes out here - Frontier.com. They do not give an email address to new customers. So I do NOT have an email ending with @frontier.com to set up the connection to my new internet provider via Thunderbird. I've tried every possible configuration to try to get Thunderbird to connect without an actual @frontier.com email address. Frontier wanted me to use an already present att email with them. But obviously Thunderbird knows I don't have an att account!! So how the heck do I get Thunderbird to connect to my internet without an @frontier.com email!!!!???? I have manually configured the settings over and over with different emails trying to get it to connect without any luck. I have spent days on this. I have talked to Frontier many times and been hung up on when I get to the obvious question of how can I connect to the internet in my email program without an @frontier.com email. I am afraid that I will have to try some other program to be able to get my emails..... but I don't want to!!

The message list pane can not be reduced below 10 messages, and the header area height is too much, also. My wife was happy with the amount email content she could see previously, but hates the new version.

The message list size issue is known since July (four months!). It depends on a single number in the code, and yet this number has not been changed. My confidence in the Thunderbird team is badly shaken by something so irritating to so many, so easy to change, and still has not been changed.

We both want to know when these issues will be corrected. I want to avoid the hassle and effort to teach her to use Outlook, so please tell me if the change is going to happen before December!

Hello.

I've read some articles about the way Thunderbird works with GMail IMAP folders. If I understand well, TB creates a copy of every GMail messages for each assigned label. This means that if a message has 3 labels, TB will copy it 3 times. According to Google storage status, I have about 12 GB for my mails. If multiple copy of messages are done depending on assigned labels (all messages, sent messages, about 20 custom labels, and so on), does it mean that I'd need 50 or 60 GB or more to synchronize my GMail account ?

Thanks for your help.

Regards.

I only have mail back to Oct10 with them but it should go back to the beginning of Jan2021. My ISP says the missing emails from their server are the fault of my email app, Thunderbird. I use pop3 and always "leave the email on the server until I delete". No settings have changed but they insist the problem is on my end. Is there anything else I should be looking at or are they the problem, as I suspect?

The subject line says it all. The only thing I can add is that some messages are displaying graphics from messages adjacent to them in the inbox display. I tried compacting but that made no difference. DS

updates of all kinds, for whatever the program have caused me more problems and down time than any virus ever has. i put off restarting thunderbird and edge for weeks or maybe months for fear of a failure. i dropped my guard for just a moment and accidentally allowed a restart and sure enough it now appears that thunderbird is fatally flawed. before the update it worked perfectly. God only knows what it will take to get it working again. i'm tired of fooling with fixes that don't work so if mozilla doesn't fix it i will have to move on to something that does work. if it ain't broke, please don't fix it.

Is there a way to use the default xfce windows instead of firefox`s own? I mean I have my own setting in the xfce window manager that are not applyed to firefox. fo example: I unchecked Raise windows when clicking inside application window, that is not applyed to firefox, I also have a context menu when right clicking on other windows title bars that I can customize, In firefox I have something total else.
