I have been marking emails from a specific account (local councilor in a city I lived in until three years ago), and still the emails get through. I have installed 78.11.0 (64-bit). I would have thought by now that three years of "mark as junk" would have got the message through to the junk filters; that Thunderbird would, by now, have learned something. Is there a hard and heavy hammer that can be used to state finally that any and all email from "Krzstzyn Wzng-Tzm <rzdzng@tcndp.cz>" is Junk? Thanks Chris Greaves

Changed password for one of my e-mail accounts, but can't find password manager. Help said in help menu, select tools, then options. When I select tools, options DOESN'T appear in the resulting choices. Tools is also supposed to be at top of Thunderbird screen, but I DON'T see it. How can I get fixed?

Hello, I am trying to configure a new POP email address for the first time in many years, and I just need a bit of assistance.

All of my previously configured email accounts share the same inbox etc under LOCAL FOLDERS and I want the new one to do the same.

I know how to configure the account to use LOCAL FOLDERS for sent items, drafts, etc via the COPIES & FOLDERS tab under Account Settings.

But what else do I need to do in order to tell Thunderbird that I want to use LOCAL FOLDERS for everything and not have the email account show up separately in the folders panel?

I can't remember what I had to do years ago when I set up my other accounts, and of course things may have changed.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

I was in two minds whether to post this i not as quite minor really, that said Thunderbird will be my default email client on several machines so may as well get Q's out of the way.

Changed the font size for emails and folder text which is spot on, the only other thing would be to have the title bars or column headers (subject, correspondent, date and so on) in bold as a quick glance makes them seem part of the emails.

This option is probably available similar to changing the font inside config file but I may not be searching for the right thing, 'headers' returns results for the actual message format.

On another note, in case this pops up later on, while dragging icons from the toolbar selection tray the 'delete' button didn't quite make it, the button is no longer in the tray (as an option) or on the menu ?

Many thanks all

I have been searching for a solution for over five hours and three different Thunderbird updates. My version of Thunderbird is 91.9.0 (32-bit). I have found several suggestion on things to do, but they are all for prior versions and the UI has changed so they all refer to pathways to find the default incoming message text size that does not match this version. I have tried every font size input I can find, setting all to 20 (larger than I need but immediately obvious when it works) and one of them did change all of the incoming message text sizes, but when I next reopened Thunderbird (for an update), it no longer persisted.

Thanks in advance, Richard Aronson

I'm using a Mac Airbook with M1 chip, Monteray.

It is exceedingly frustrating to read the entire inboxes (8 email accounts) in tiny, tiny letters. Tried to upload screen shot but it didn't seem to work (just kept spinning).

I tried using the solution given by Toad-Hall here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1267898 But it didn't work.

I made the documents he said to make and put them in all 6 of my email profiles (i guess I have 6 profiles due to all the different email addresses in there?). But everything is still tiny, tiny letters. Very hard on the eyes.

When I go to view -> zoom, nothing gets bigger. The text within an individual email will enlarge, just not the text of the inboxes.

Please can you tell me a simple solution (I am not that techy and don't want to spend another 2 hours on fixing this) for how to get my thunderbird app to appear readable? Otherwise I think I will ruin my eyes! Thanks!

By the way even my excel and word items at 100% on the 13" screen are small. But I am able to enlarge that each time I open it.

I note that in the preferences/settings, you can activate the account with the mouse, but you can't drag/drop to change order (maybe a useful feature to have?).

Thanks.

Hi,

I have a Mozilla Thunderbird email client, which has been linked to my Microsoft Outlook account using IMAP for years, and has operated perfectly well for my personal preferences.

At some point overnight (26th / 27th May) this stopped working and I am now presented with the error message "Sending of password for user xxx@xxxxxxx.co.uk did not succeed. Mail server outlook.office365.com responded: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password" when trying to download mail.

This is very strange as I can log in directly to my Outlook account using the same user name and password. No settings were changed by me in either Mozilla or Outlook.

For information, I can still send messages from Thunderbird but not now receive them.

Can anyone help, please?

Many thanks.

Right now, the messages in my threads pane show up in colors associated with their tags. This isn't a functionality I need and it makes it difficult for me to read a lot of the messages. I just want messages to show up in a single color -- black (or white on black would be great, but I don't know how to set a dark mode if one exists). I suppose even better would be the ability to have certain tags affect color and other not.

Any easy way of doing any of this?

Hi, I want to use Windows Task Scheduler to send command line emails via Thunderbird.

I have found only: thunderbird -compose "attachment='C:\first.txt,C:\second.txt'"

This works. But I also want to include email to, subject, text body and send.

I have tried options like Blat. Blat works but not with gmail.com as they block it. So with Thunderbird installed locally I may be able to work around the new gmail restrictions.

Many thanks.

Thunderbird is my default Mail Client. Microsoft Office 2021 is resident, but Outlook is uninstalled.

I'm surprised that this has not been addressed before.
