I right click but no box appears offering a paste option. Have also tried Web DAV but when I click to save the addresses offered again nothing happens. Any ideas ? Am using W10 and thunderbird version updated Dec 2021

Hi,

I have a primary account with Gmail, and several alias domains (personal vs business etc). When sending email from Thunderbird, the Headers include "Return-Path", which reveals the Gmail primary domain on the account. No such Header appears when I send similar emails through the browser / Gmail web portal.

I would like to omit the Return-Path Header when using Thunderbird to send emails.

Thanks for your help.

I currently use the Gmail (smtp.gmail.com) outgoing mail server in Thunderbird. Google has notified us that as of May 30, 2022 it will no longer be supporting less secure sign in which I am currently using for the Outgoing Mail Server for Thunderbird.

I don't want to wait until May 30 to find out I can't send e-mails. Do you have any suggestions for a suitable free alternative? I am just using this for personal e-mails and don't require large mailing lists, etc.

Thanks, Paul

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

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 have just started using Thunderbird (version 91.0.0) and I can't find a way to disable the irritating auto double spacing using the enter key. I have researched online and found lots of various answers to the same question (some years ago). Unfortunately, the processes suggested in the answers do not relate to what I am seeing on my computer. Can someone point me in the right direction, please? Thanks.

I've come back to Thunderbird after 12-years on Outlook, and before that 7-years on Lotus Notes, 14-years on PROFS/VM. I'm liking Thunderbird a lot!

One of the things I can't work out how to do is quickly choose a folder to save sent mail in. Most of my email is around maybe 5-7 projects. For incoming mail it's simple, I can favorite the folder and just drag the email to that folder if I want to save a copy either in a favorite folder or in the IMAP mail folder list.

By default I've set Thunderbird to default to NOT save sent emails. When I do want to save an email, before pressing send I select send a copy to, navigate through the folder hierarchy and select the folder(see attached). Yes I know I could simplify this by having a flat folder hierarchy and naming folders proj/folder/folder.

Is there a way from within the reply window to shortcut or favorite sent mail folders to save the main in?

Hi, I noticed that my Junk folder has no junk messages coming into it. I know there are junk messages present because I can see them in the Junk folder when I am in Windows 10 Mail - hotmail viewer. For example there are currently 44 junk messages - including 4 today., that I can see in Mail. None of these appear in the Thunderbird Junk folder, they do not appear in the Thunderbird inbox folder either. They used to appear in the Thunderbird junk folder up until a few days, or weeks ago. I am on Thunderbird 91.9.0 with windows 10 home 19044.1682 on a PC. The Thunderbird junk mail folder is empty, What I have tried is the repair folder option, - did nothing , renaming junk.msf to junk.oldmsf then restart and let a new junk.msf be created - no effect. I have also gone to inbox selected a message marked it as junk, then ran junk mail controls - the message gets moved over correctly to the junk folder, but nothing else gets added when I run Get Messages, only non-junk messages found that go to the Inbox folder. Does anyone have any ideas ?

Hello friends, is there an updated way to disable the daily update notification window that appears? ("A new Thunderbird update is available")

I currently don't wish to update Thunderbird, and the published methods don't work any longer such as changing app.update.doorhanger in config.

Is there a newer way to disable these notifications, or is a backgrade required?

Thanks for your time

Hello-- I have created an alternative account in Thunderbird, and with it custom signature text using the html option in Account Settings. When I send emails using this alternative identity, however, the signature that displays is the one associated with the primary, default account. How do I get Thunderbird to use the correct signature?

I also have a problem when emails are sent to gmail: the signature displays with an extra blank line between each line of text. The signature displays as desired in other email clients. Thanks for any clues Jim

Hi, I have a few email accounts set up in Thunderbird (rel 91.7.0 32bit, Win10 21H1). On the work email (the first account) I receive complete notifications when receveing new email (sound and popup with sender/subject). On the personal one, I can only hear the sound and see the new mail red icon in the traybar but I can't see any preview. As far as I can tell, the notifications setting are not account-specific, and I would expect all accounts to behave the same in that respect. Does anybody have idea/suggestions to activate the popup alert also for the other account? Many thanks in advance Luca

I like to quote the original email when I reply I have my reply above the quote. That part works fine.

However... it doesn't matter how I set the setting (i.e. "When replying place my signature"), it always ends up on the bottom, below the quote. Even when the dropdown says "below my reply (above the quote)."

When I hit reply, I'd like my signature there on top and then I can insert my reply above it. Now, I have to scroll to the bottom, below the quote, then cut and paste my signature where I want it.

Am I missing some setting somewhere"

Thanks in advance, John

Is there an add-on for Thunderbird version 91 for importing emails from Windows Live Mail?

I tried "importexporttools-3.3.2" and it says it is has been corrupted, and besides it says it is for Thunderbird 14.0 - 60.

Thanks Murray

I am having troubles with my signature formatting from particular recipients. I have attached pictures of what is is supposed to look like and when the spacing gets shrunk down to nothing.

This is an HTML signature, so that might have something to do with it but I don't know.

I want to make sure my signature looks the same every time but I don't want a plain text or image signature because I don't want the extra attachment with every email.

How can I get a mulit-formatted signature to look the same every time?

I have tried just about everything I can think of as well as read through various similar posts in the community, but there doesn't appear to be an actual solve in the settings to enlarge the font size of the message list view as well as the folders on the left-hand side.

Please see snapshot for reference. If I'm unable to adjust this, then I'll just move to a different email client because this font is just too small and I don't want to revert to having to adjust the resolution settings only to read email each time.

Thank you for any help/guidance you can provide!

Why can't we have a "not junk" button? Am I missing it? Seems pretty standard in all mail programs. Or in the right-click menu? Yes, we can right-click and Move to Inbox, but that's three steps, as opposed to one.

Thanks for any insights.

My Gmail has thousands of messages on the server. I only want to keep the previous year (2021) and not import the rest of the messages.

How to I delete the entire batch before 2021 in Thunderbird and not affect the Gmail?

I am using the Imap setup.

Thank You, Fk Humber
