v115.7.0 I have been a user and contributor for years. OS is still Win7. I have had a IMAP connection to Comcast for years, now it will not connect. I have made sure I am using the correct password. When I start thunderbird, a secondary window pops up with the error message unable to connect. WEnt thru lots of posts but no results. One interesting said to disable IPV6 security option, but the way they described the fix was to access thry the EDIT menu then Preferences, but my system does not have Preferences under Edit.

How does one enable calendars in Thunderbird version 115.8.0? When I click the calendar icon on the left of the page, I get a calendar displayed but it has a message highlighted in yellow that says: "All calendars are currently disabled. Enable an existing calendar or add a new one to create or add events."

I cannot find anything in settings or elsewhere to enable calendars.

TIA

Hello, I have been using Thunderbird with the Manually Sort Folders app for years. The ability to place folders and subfolders where I need them is essential for what I do. With the latest Thunderbird "upgrade", it was downgraded as the Manually Sort Folders app is no longer useable. Until Mozilla fixes it to where either the app can be used or Thunderbird is improved so that it will let me sort folders itself, I cannot upgrade. Please either render the Manually Sort Folders app useable again or make Thunderbird so that folder can be sorted. Thank you.

I'm using Thunderbird 115.8.1 (64-bit) on Windows 10 with IMAP, a gmail account, all folders are set to sync offline.

Two days ago someone sent me a message with a couple of attachments, I read it, it was downloaded ok.

Today, working offline, I try to read the same message and I get "The Body of this message has not been downloaded for offline use".

Searching for this problem online is insanely frustrating as there appears to be an infinite number of explanations online telling me how to get the message body downloaded. It WAS downloaded, I was looking at it two days ago! This has been a common problem in Thunderbird for me for several years now. Messages are downloaded, read, I go offline, they are still there ok, then a few days later they mysteriously say "The Body of this message has not been downloaded for offline use".

Fragments of the message bodies appear in search results, even at the same time as trying to read the messages gives me "The Body of this message has not been downloaded for offline use." It's in there somewhere, I can even find the entire message body by searching the data files in the profile folder, but Thunderbird THINKS it's not downloaded.

I need to work offline a lot, and any help would be very much appreciated.

Thank you for your time.

How can I turn off the threading of my emails? Its driving me crazy as when an email comes in after a short time it disappears into the threads and then I have to open each thread to find out who sent the email. At one stage there were 6 emails noted near the inbox but no new unthreaded message, all went to respective threads. Very time wasting.

The Import from seamonkey does not work, it doesn't do anything, select it and the continue button does nothing when clicked.

Everything I have is in Seamonkey Mail (2.53.18.1) and I am trying to get them out. all I want is all my mail folders, don't care about the rest of the settings, all contacts are in my gmail , it's just all the mail folders

You cannot see from the screen shot but clicking the button does totally nothing, all the seamonkey folders are name & name.msf

Thanks in advance

Want to:

  • Sort email by newest on top
  • Include sub-emails within threads for the newest on top (currently still oldest on top)
  • Apply this default setting to all. I don't want to sort every account, every folder manually. That's too tedious.

Thunderbird has oldest on top. This includes emails within a thread/conversation. Changing the sort to newest on top does not change the emails within the thread/conversation. The sort does not apply to all emails. I find this very annoying.
