I-Thunderbird Isithangami Sokwesekwa

I just migrated my email from cox to yahoo servers. The cox.net domain is retained.

I had never seen a "bulk" folder with my other domains and was having problems with emails being sent there.

I deleted the bulk folder and it moved to trash but cannot actually be deleted. I also re created a bulk folder. see pic.

Now emails are still going to the bulk folder that is in trash.

Is there any way to fix this?

Thanks

I have seen numerous posts on this forum involving the "Leave Messages on Server" option in the server portion of the Account settings. Many of these posts include responders stating that this option does not apply to POP servers.

If this is correct, why does Thunderbird even include this setting for an account that is explicitly designated as a POP server/account? This is an invitation to confusion and misunderstanding; I have been a victim of this. It seems to me to be a no-brainer to change the code to remove this option from these POP accounts.

Can I stop being notified of new updates? I don't even want to hear about them. A registry change maybe?

A previous thread I started requested help for an issue that transpired when I updated from 102 to 115 back in 2023. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1424162 After messing with it, I uninstalled the 115 update, deleted Thunderbird folders in my user's AppData folders and reinstalled the last update I knew that worked with the email that Thunderbird was having a problem which was 102. I had turned off auto-updates and got my four email accounts back like I prefer.

Last month I was presented with an update notification that I confused with a Firefox update and installed it. Darn - the Unified Folder in that one email was messed up again. I attempted some settings changed to the folders and it seemed to work. I was not too thrilled with the toolbar change at the top, preferring the small print Menu Bar at top, with Tabs directly under and finally Mail Toolbar at bottom but I resigned to live with the change.

A few weeks passed and the Unified Folder for that one email once again had a couple of subfolders under the account AND ALSO I noticed that syncing with my iPhone and other computers stopped. I was having to delete messages twice. TIME TO UNINSTALL AND FIND 102 AGAIN.

Not a huge deal besides needed to redo the columns to my preferences and I finally figured out the child inheritance to other folders thing with all this practice re-configuring to older versions.

So the question... is there a chance that I can have the new update notification stopped? I don't want to even be notified by way of a periodic popup that I have to be on my toes so I can dismiss.

Thanks, Steve

In my left tool bar I have:

xxxx@cox.net pop server followed by about 40 folders. This was the Cox email that is no longer in use.

xxxx@gmail.com followed by folders

xxxx@cox.net this is the new imap cox.net using yahoo.

Is it possible to move the bottom cox.net to the top, followed by gmail, followed by the no longer in use pop cox.net?

Thanks

Hello

We've made a donation, but we're still getting the annoying "DONATION" notice popping up at the browser.

WE WOULD LIKE TO DISABLE IT PLEASE. PLEASE PROVIDE THE INSTRUCTIONS TO DO IT.

Thanks Vitor Neves CMS INC.

I have several email accounts - a main one, and two or three subsidiary emails which I use for specific purposes. For the last week I keep getting a large popup saying "Mozilla Thunderbird Email wants to access your Google Account." Not only do I not want or need what this offers for this particular account, but whatever I do, it keeps coming back every few minutes, which as it is on top of whatever I am working with, is extremely annoying. It offers me "Deny" or "Allow" options - but slicking "Deny" just removes that popup - and a few minutes later it returns. Screenshot of the message attached. Can anyone tell me how to get rid of it permanently, please? Many thanks for any help you can offer.

Hello Folks I recent times we had to migrate from one company to another as the former company no longer provided the emailing service... At first it worked OK...then I was no longer able to get emails and the new company took me through and reset Thunderbird setup,,,once that was done all my folder structure disappeared, and all the info stored in the folders... I have been trying to sort it out, but the company has not been able to do so...and today they suggested to contact Thunderbird to see if they could help... Thank you in anticipation Franco

In the attached screen shot they are two type of folders - One is yellow and looks like a paper folder and the others are rectangular in shape in different colors (here in res and purple) . I am unable to delete the rectangular folder that appear permanent and I don't even know how it was created as I used the same command "new folder" under the inbox or "new subfolder" under a yellow folder - I hope that this is clear : I want to delete the rectangular folders when needed

Hi. I have inherited a job where the email is Gmail. I inadvertently set it up in Thunderbird, and it downloaded about 1500 emails from the server. I don't want to delete them off the server, as I'll probably be passing the account onto someone else soon.

1/ So, will they redownload every day I open Tbird?

2/ If not, is there a way I can delete them off my Tbird, and they DON'T redownload, but stay on the server?

Thanks, CD

When I start Thunderbird, it asks for Master Password right away, and then again just after it opens up.

I asked question last year, but didn't get much response.

What can I do to just have it ask one time when starting Thunderbird? I tried disabling "check new messages at startup" on all accounts.

I want to customize shortcuts in Thunderbird using tbkeys but I can't find the right command name.

In the description is written: "Most command names can be found in the main command set file of the Thunderbird source code."

But where I can found all/ more/ other command names?

In my case I want to change:

• "Move to previous UI element" (default: Shift + Tab)
• "Move to next main UI area" (default: F6)

I understand the basic differences between unread folders and unified folders what I don't understand is why two of nine my accounts are listed in both unified folders and unread (see circled in red) how do I remove the two accounts from unified folders or

add more to it
and what makes it confusing is that the subfolders aren't the same when listed in unified or unread

I recently purchased a new laptop and needed to migrate my old Thunderbird profiles. This is what I did: 1. Backed up profiles from old laptop 2. downloaded and installed latest version of Thunderbird on new laptop 3. coped profiles into \roaming directory 4. tested and successfully received emails and viewed all old emails.

The problem is that the Mail toolbar is nowhere to be found. Also, the calendar is missing. I tried right clicking on empty space and it only showed "menu bar" as an option. Attachment shows nothing in the toolbars option of View dropdown.

I have two accounts in Thunderbird: comcast and gmail. For some reason there was a password problem when I tried to get email from comcast. I got that fixed but now gmail is showing up as a folder under comcast. It is in italics and grayed out (see picture). It cannot be deleted as when trying I get the message that the folder is non-existent.

There seem no way to move it either. I tried moving it to the gmail account but the server always says it is non existent but it does exist in my list of folders. There are also two folders under the gmail account, Ipad, and labone that cannot be deleted either.

Any help appreciated. Win10 TB 115.10.1 latest

I was able to change some of my message pane background by adding the following to the userContent.css file:

/* Thunderbird userContent.css */

@-moz-document url-prefix("imap:"),url-prefix("mailbox:"),url-prefix("news:") {

 body {
   background-color: #404552 !important;
 }

} @-moz-document url-prefix("about:blank?compose") {

 body {
   background-color: #404552 !important;
 }

}

I also tried adding the following to my userChrome.css file: /* Message pane */

1. msgHeaderView {

 background-color: #404552 !important;

}

1. messagePane {

 background-color: #404552 !important;

}

Why do I still get these two dark gray areas (see attached)? What css do I need to add to get them to be the lighter grey?

I want to change the reminder sound. I already downloaded a MP3 file and I selected it on "Reminders", "Use the following sound file". I can see the window that pops up, but no sound is played. Also when I click on Play, it doesn't work. I know the sound file is fine, thus I can play it on my laptop. What should I do? Another question, is there any Add-on with Reminder sounds?

Thanks in advance.

I want to set unthreaded as default column view for all folders, and then that column view to be used on all new subfolders I create, but without having to use advanced settings various workarounds (it is and should be called for what it is...) which is currently the standard response when users is asking how to change from threaded to unthreaded column view. Why can't this setting be simply implemented as part of the standard gui?

is there a way to include or insert custom code into the head section of outbound Thunderbird emails?

Note that I am not talking about custom email headers, but custom html into the <head> section of outbound HTML emails.

Thanks!
