I-Thunderbird Isithangami Sokwesekwa

This is the message I get when trying to send emails: "Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: pgbentley101@gmail.com recipient rejected. Please check the message recipient "pgbentley101@gmail.com" and try again."

Title. Thunderbird is a really cool client but it's pretty slow. I blame that on the thousands upon thousands of emails that my hotmail and gmail each hold. I don't necessarily want to delete these emails, but I have seldom a reason to have any email older than 2 months in my thunderbird client slowing and crashing the program whenever I want to combine inboxes.

To this end I went to "Synchronization & Storage" and told it to "Synchronize the most recent 2 months" but it didn't delete the huge cluster of older emails. The next option is to tell TB to delete these emails in the same menu but as I understand it that would also delete them in the server, which I don't want to do for posteriority.

What do I do?

Hello, I have recently installed an updated version of Mozilla Thunderbird as my old account kept telling me that my settings were out dated. Having installed it I am still getting the same message. Please will you advise me which settings and how do I go about updating them. Many thanks.

I am new to Thunderbird and I run a mac mini using macOS Catalina 10.16.7 with Thunderbird v115.4.1. how do I get the date/time to display within the email so I know when it was sent? after installing the app the date/time only seems to be displayed in the listing of email. when looking at the email itself I do not see any date information, even if I open the email in a new window.

My apologies if this has been asked/answered but I did not see this topic when looking at the FAQs

When I'm on a website with an Email Link (Example: Support) and I click on the Email Link nothing is happening. Before the Supernova "upgrade" any Email Link would automatically open to my Thunderbird Email Account Email. Now, nothing.

I found a Mozilla Support Post for Windows 11: Apps>Default Apps>Thunderbird>MAILTO, but it is already set to Thunderbird.

Does anyone have a Fix?

Thank you in advance.

My Thunderbird standard display has the message displayed below the list of incoming messages. This message pane take up "Several" lines of display and also duplicates the information in the above message window. Its a waste of space and the actual message has to be reduced in viewable size cause the header block uses it all up.

The area circled in red I want total control over.

Show me how.

Hello,

Within the past week or so, whenever I download my email, I then get a little dialog box telling me that "Could not connect to server news; the connection was refused", and then asking me to enter my username and password. This is something new.

Once upon a time I did subscribe to some newsgroups; I haven't looked at them in years.

I can download email, but have no need to access the news server. I deleted the sub-folders nested within the news server, but I still get that dialog box.

I looked at my settings, but am unable to determine how to stop tbird from polling the news-server.

Hello, I'm using Thunderbird (and before Netscape Messenger) already 30 years. With this new version 115.4.1 (32-Bit) I'm now experiencing the symptom, that, when I reopen one of the mailboxes the focus is not in this mailbox on the last read mail as it was always in earlier versions, it now focusses somewhere so that you always have to scroll to the point where you have been last time.

My husband has Thunderbird for his emails. I am trying to set up Thunderbird for my emails. I am not able to get past the point where you must select IMAP or POP3. System seems stuck on "checking password". I've had Microsoft outlook for a long time. I want to set up Thunderbird. We have a home based business. I need my email system up and running.

At 15:00 yesterday, my Thunderbird was updated (behind my back).

From that moment it could not communicate with my imap server and I cannot renew my account with the server.

I now have to use webmail.

Can I please go back to the immediate predecessor as that has worked well.

I have a new phone, and I can't get my email on it without the email password. I've had the account so long I can't remember the password; Thunderbird just retrieves my email. Now I want it on the phone. Is there a way to get my password out of thunderbird so I can put it in my phone?

Problem: I'm 76 years old and technically self-taught. I have 2 Windows 11 computers. One desktop and one laptop. Both are fully updated and utilizing Office software, specifically Outlook. Not too long ago I happily discovered Thunderbird and like it soooo much better. QUESTION: Within Outlook, my calendar is displayed as iCloud Calendar which is ok for me. The one thing that is keeping me from exclusively using Thunderbird is not being able to import my iCoud calendar into Thunderbird. Is that even possible and if so, how? Please keep your response as simplistic as possible. Thank you for your time and consideration given to my inquiry.

Hi When I opened my inbox yesterday only 95 emails were visible less than 1 month of emails. The mail file still shows that it contains 12 gig of data so I presume all of the emails are still on file. How to I access all of the remaining emails. Thanks
