I-Thunderbird Isithangami Sokwesekwa

I use Thunderbird and have a church email address running on MS Exchange. MS are telling me that because I use IMAP and ACTIVSYNC these will be switched of soon and my Exchange email will stop working. They are saying I should move to Outlook. I have no intention of doing this. What do I do? Thanks.

Messages with the different subject are grouped in one thread

The subject line for one was " Fw: Important Document(s) from Store's" & "Signing complete: 123 Main ST Residential Lease Contract & Pet Ag". One email came from a store email. The other came from docusign.

The only thing they did have in common was that inside the message from Store it mentions "Main St.", but not the full address.

I tried to move one email to another folder, and both emails get moved. My end result is that I need to put the store email under my "VENDORS File", and the other under "SIGNED CONTRACTS File"

Also, I keep missing emails because it keeps putting them in weird threads like this.

I have set "mail.thread_without_re" to false already. I just need to file emails to correct file.

Please & thank you for your help!

When deleting an email from inbox, proton mail deletes that email. When moving an email from inbox to local folders, proton mail fails to delete that email. The following is from proton mail support: When you delete a message in Thunderbird, the message will be moved to the Trash folder on the ProtonMail account, this means the message is not permanently deleted, only moved to the Trash folder, and this works.

In the case of moving a message to a local folder, Thunderbird will attempt to permanently delete the message from the source folder (Inbox in your case), and since this is not a supported feature in ProtonMail, the message is retained in the All Mail folder only.

ProtonMail might support permanently deleting messages from folders in the future, however, at the moment we are not able to provide a timeline for when this might happen.

Any suggestions? Thank you.

I have about 9 emails linked with this program.

Last week on one of the accounts about 98% of all my email is going into the junk folder.

In all my accounts, even if I mark it as not junk, they still go to junk

It would be nice if you could update the program to: if you mark an email not junk, or it is junk, the email is saved into your contacts folder or maybe a master folder and when email comes into the program it checks that email as sees it is marked as not junk and goes into the inbox. Something if it is junk goes to the junk folder. Maybe one little upgrade, you can set a sound file to an email address if you need to know if something was highly important that just came in.

Otherwise it is a good program.

I managed to successfully send a test mail merge message to myself, to 2 different emails. However, when I try to send the real message to 137 people, as soon as I hit "OK" to complete the mail merge, the progress box comes up and disappears in less than one second, without sending anything at all. I tried send later, send now, restarted Thunderbird - nothing works. Have you seen this problem before?

Thunderbird 91.9.0

Source: CSV Deliver Mode: Send Later Character set: windows-1252 (also tried UTF-8, it does not work either) Field Delimiter: , Text Delimiter: "

I had my email connected a week ago until I reached out to support about a certificate error. I don't get many important emails, so I didn't notice till today that I was not connected to the server. When I clicked on any folder, "The IMAP server imap.mail.com does not seem to support encrypted passwords. if you just set up this account, please try changing to 'Normal Password' as the 'Authentication method' in the 'Account Set..."

So I did this.

Following the message I saw said something like, "these folders do not exist on the server." And instantly, all of my 50+ folders were gone. Is there some way to recover these? I have not, as of yet, closed Thunderbird.

If I have to load from backup, I will be ok to do so, but I would love it if I could avoid that somehow. Also, how do I prevent this from happening again once I do a load from backup?

As per the subject.

I've got long list of folders and subfolders. Trying to create a saved search to show the tagged/important stuff, but I can't select the top level to tick the lower level folders and ticking all folders would be rather time-consuming.

Please tell me there's some obscure solution that makes this clunky interface at least somewhat usable?

I have several people on my Thunderbird contacts list that I can send and receive t ext messages from. But i do not know how how to open them directly without Notepad or word pad. How do i open read it with out having to use word pad or note pad some times they come up as an attachment I would like to open directly with out having to rd in note pad or word pad how do i open that directly to read see attachment

when I receive a typed Email, The print is not visible. I have tried going into preference to reset defaults, but the setting reverts to what was previously there. White for color rather than black. Allan

I need to forward the source information from emails I am receiving. Specifically these are spam emails that appear to be sent to me by me but of course I do not send myself spam. My email provider says I need to send him the source information from these emails but the only way I have found to do this is to open the source material and either 1) save it as a pdf or 2) cut and paste the source material into a new email message to my email provider. Both of these are tedious. In the old days I could expand the email header to reveal the source information and then forward the entire email with header (source info) visible but this option no longer seems available. Can you please help me? Much appreciated. --Harriet

A few versions of Thunderbird back, I could easily change the order of Local Folders by pressing down with the left mouse button and sliding the folder to the desired positions.

Now I can no longer do this.

Re-ordering local folders alphabetically would be helpful too.

Suggestions, please.

I've tried seeing if anyone has had this issue but i'm not finding a thread.

TL;DR. Gmail authentication screen pops up but does not allow authentication. It deletes your email input and prompts for your email again.

FULL EXPLANATION: Thunderbird 101.0b4 and my gmail account was previsiously configured and working properly. My Gmail 2FA/MFA was in place before I set up my gmail in Thunderbird again.

I am not sure at what point it stopped working. I don't remember what possible change could have triggered this on my end. Nor do I know if it happened with it specific upgrade to Thunderbird.

For the last few weeks, I occasionally open Thunderbird to access my gmail and it attempts to fetch my email from google but it's unable to authenticate. A Gmail authentication screen pops up but does not allow authentication. I input my email address I hit enter. It deletes my email input and prompts for my email again. It gives no error message and does not change screens. It does not prompt for the password. Nothing.

I'm not seeing any security issues presented with Google. So I'm not sure what's blocking this.

On 30 May, you may lose access to apps that are using less secure sign-in technology

To help keep your account secure, Google will no longer support the use of third-party apps or devices which ask you to sign in to your Google Account using only your username and password. Instead, you’ll need to sign in using Sign in with Google

This week, I started noticing people aren't getting my emails. I changed nothing that I know of in Thunderbird to create a propblem. I'm using Thunderbird 91.9.1 (32-bit). My outgoing smtp settings are:

Server Name - smtp.comcast.net Port - 465 Connection secrity - SSL/TLS Authentication method - normal password user name - ehersh316@comcast.net

The meesages I create go into my "sent" folder, but do not arrive at their destination. I did try a 'test' message to myself at the comcast address, and it comes to my inbox. But gmail and other addresses are not going through. I called Comcast and verified the port 465 as correct, and they had me try 587 which didn't work either. I log onto Comcast in my browser, and I can send email from there as a work-around. Can you help? thanks,
