j'ai ajouté à thunderbird mon compte de messagerie infomaniak . l'intégration s'est faite correctement, mais je ne peux pas envoyer de mail à partir de thunderbird infomaniak sauf si je remplace le serveur sortant mail.infomaniak.com par smtp.gmail.com. quelqu'un sait ce qu'il se passe?

Dear Sir / Madam, I am still running a perfectly good Win 7 computer. My Mail Inbox & Sent Box have a huge number of Emails i have been trying to delete in batches. They initially go to my Deleted folder which shows the number of emails collected. I then empty the deleted folder. so far so good, except the huge file size in my inbox or sent box hasn’t changed! But the deleted folder is now showing empty! The emails i selected to delete seem to have disappeared, but i have not recovered any disk space! I am running out of disk space in C drive because i cannot seem to remove these emails. I have tried shutting down my computer & rebooting (i shut it down every night) this has no effect.

If i had a tool to open the sent / inbox file i could manually delete emails in old date order? Hope someone out there can help.

Kind regards Nick

I have 3 PCs , I cant send message from them. Message to my gmail accounts is ok. It happends after uppdate Microfoft 2025-8. Somebody who can help me to send email again? I have same email accounts on a Android phone - everything is ok send and get message.

I used to troubleshoot when Thunderbird would fail to download new messages by looking at the last successfully downloaded email. But I can't find the error log. I'm pretty sure older versions allowed you to see the error log under Tools. But it isn't there and developer section is not helpful. I have tons of message filters going into folders so it is impossible to identify the last successful email download.

How am I to fix this issue if there is no longer a way to see failed email downloads via the error log?

I wasn't happy with the UI changes burying the menus into the hamburger on the side, but figured I could live with it. Not sure the benefit, maybe it looks cleaner? But removing functionality at the same time is really NOT helpful.

Anyone have any ideas how to find the error log or find the email causing Thunderbird to stop seeing downloadable emails?

I've read everything apropos here, tried everything, and I'm lost--and totally screwed--if I can't get into my old Thunderbird. Spectrum, computer died, nobody competent here to get past "Registry Error," I guess, but I need all the data, contacts, calendar, etc., in the T'bird I've relied on for MANY years. PLEASE help. I tried to get a screen grab: It didn't work.

This is the second time I've appealed for help.

I want to remove one of my old email accounts. I need to use the Account Actions button, but it isn't showing. I've read everything about how to get the button to appear, but nothing works. I'm using the latest update to Thunderbird. My menu bar is showing. All the setting for each email account are showing. One suggestion was to click on the small button in the lower left corner, but the small button I have just opens the account settings, no Account Actions.

Is anyone familiar with this issue and how to get that Account Actions button to show?

Thanks for the help.

I am 100% positive that I have changed my password at least once in the 12 years I've used Thunderbird. Now I want to change it again. I figured this would be an easy answer on the help desk, but I read five answers that were all different. Some of them made no sense. I am using Outlook, so I tried there. I was able to sign in to MS Outlook, but even there couldn't find a way to change the password.

We are changing several passwords due to a news article in June about cybersecurity. We are slow getting around to all of them.

I looked under settings and security. I may be blind, but I just can't find anything.

Today after clicking on Get Messages, I noticed my Email account showed all the message headers on the right as usual, but did not show any of the message contents when I clicked on any of them. All I got was an empty message screen. This happened for new and previously existing read messages. The problem was limited to my Email account and did not affect other folders such as Drafts, Sent, Trash, etc. I right-clicked on the Email folder under the Inbox, opened Properties and hit the Repair Folder button, which made all the headers disappear as well! I didn't see any help messages with issues specific and/or limited to just the Email folder in Inbox. Can someone help! Tks, JS

My archive folders have gone out of order alphanumerically. I have tried right clicking the account and selecting "Reset Folder Order" but this has no effect. I have also tried moving folders manually and found that certain folders refused to move. Also after a restart all the folders I have moved appear at the end of the list of folders. This is very inconvenient as I have built up a large number of archive folders over the years. I am on the Release update channel and my version of Thunderbird is up to date (146.0.1 (64-bit)). I haven't been able to upload ab image because I get contstant error message "Error uploading image".

Hi, am not finding anything helpful in the support area, so hoping someone can help me solve. When a calendar reminder pops up, and I try to snooze or dismiss, I get this message:

Status Code: 2,147,500,037, null

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.

Thing is, I do want to add and edit events, so I have no other options and the reminder keeps popping up every couple of minutes it seems. Any help resolving is appreciated. Thx!

I think the last Thunderbird has broken my ability to send reports from QuickBooks to Thunderbird. It has worked wonderfully for years and now I cannot send anymore. I have QB 2024 Enterprise. Does anyone have a fix for this? I have made sure Thunderbird is the default app in both Thunderbird and Windows. I have not upgraded my windows 10 to windows 11. I hope that is not the problem.

I am really in a panic: Using ubuntu 22.04 and Thunderbird 140.7.1.esr For my main account I keep some 40 sub-folders and sub-sub-folders. All but the most recent mails in my sub folders are gone, something like 4 years of email. I asked chatGPT for help and found inside the /mail folder that most of the files with the names of my sub folders with no extension have 0 kb. I don't use IMAPS because I wanted my mails on my computer so I use only POP. :-( The interesting thing is that this only happend to my main account. I have 6 more accounts in Thunderbird and they seem to be fine, at least for now. Thank you for any help. Kind regards Frank

Sending of password for user (name) did not succeed. Mail server mail.skymesh.com.au responded: [AUTH] Authentication failed. this is the message I get and then no new mail comes, I can sign in to my skymesh account

I'm having troubles with Thunderbird version 140.6.0esr(64-bits) on Ubuntu 25.10 (fully updated). It's installed as a snap.

The first problem is that I have a selected mail with an attachment, but nowhere in the mail itself I can see or find or open or download that attachment.

The second problem is that for the inbox and mail body I can't scroll. There are no scrollbars, and the mouse-wheel doesn't work.

Is it a problem with snap? With Ubuntu? Or with Thunderbird itself? Could if be a configuration problem (I've tried quite a lot of things already)?
