I-Thunderbird Isithangami Sokwesekwa

Hello: I have just set up a new desktop PC. Have downloaded/installed Thunderbird email program (used previously with old PC). Entered manual configuration using Spectrum server settings, user name (email) for Incoming Server and Outgoing Server. Had to attempt to process manually several times, and then suddenly everything popped up....all my previous emails were there, although my address book was gone. EVERYTHING worked yesterday (10/18) from that point through shut down later in the evening. Suddenly today, I start rebuilding my address book, and was trying to send message. Processing message and "sending" was taking very long, and finally error message pops up saying "Message can't be sent due to Outgoing Server timing out." Incoming Server and receiving messages appears to be fine...no issues there...successfully receiving emails. I've gone back and checked my settings on Outgoing Server...they are same as I entered yesterday.... Although the port listed 587 has a "default" port number listed to the right as "465" ..... the number of the port and the default (993) on the Incoming Server match. Is this the problem? There's no way to change/edit the 465. Is this a systemic issue? I see several other posters with problems with Outgoing Server/stmp issues. Judy Gamble

Hello, Whenever I load Thunderbird, you know also load your website on Firefox. I DO NOT WANT TO SEE YOUR WEBSITE! And it slows down my computer. How can I turn that off?

Thank you very much! Mary

I have used Thunderbird for many years. I have also made occasional donations over these years to support Thunderbird and Firefox when appeals have been made. I am however I do not like the new layout of Thunderbird. Can I go back to the original version?

In the last couple of weeks I have been unable to retrieve my email using Thunderbird or outlook from Namecheap servers. They offer a solution specifically for thunderbird solution solution /setup they tell you to use server address for server part in client setup mine is https://premium288.web-hosting.com

none of this works diffrent machines clients all return a fail to find in various wording

so anyone else have a problem with namecheap?

I'm not sure I'm in the right place but I have a problem opening my Thunderbird email. It keeps telling me that it's open and to close but nothing happens. I can't close it and it's not actually open. I've rebooted my computer but Thunderbird still insists it's open. What can I do? I can't access and folders or emails. Should I uninstall it and reinstall it? Really hope you can help me

I noticed in the very latest Mozilla Thunderbird version that the "Get Messages" tab No Longer shows above the inbox. It was most convenient when it was there because could click it and watch emails coming into the inbox. Where actually is it now, and why did you move it ?. Also is there anyway to revert to previous version ?

Thanks

If I set the inbox date order so that the most recent messages are at the top then that works fine, however I prefer to display the most recent messages at the bottom, yet when I download new messages I always need to scroll down to see the latest.

Is there a way around that so that TB autoscrolls to the latest?

“Checking inbox for new messages” appears for several minutes then “No messages to download” appears on my Windows computer with AT&T POP Server. Messages exist, my cell picks them up. Had problem for weeks. Reinstalled Thunderbird. Computer downloads messages periodically. Older error message was "The account xxx email is being processed. Please wait until processing is complete to get messages." AT&T says it is not their problem, but Thunderbird. Help. Should I install the Beta Thunderbird or use an IMAP server or what else can I try. I have all my old emails in folders so changing mailers would be problematic. Help Thanks

Every time I try to set up my email account within the Thunderbird app I get this failure to code 0x80550014 message with [nslMsgIncomingServer.verifyLogon] and not sure as to why or how to go about fixing this.

No matter what I do, mark Not Junk or move to inbox, some of my mail is going to Junk and these are from people in my contacts and I have been corresponding with them for years. Meanwhile I still get some scam mail (Bigpond scams in particular) that I move to junk or try to block and they still come to my inbox. I have changed settings to a learning mode but so far no learning. Anyone else having this problem???

I'm having trouble downloading attachments. The attachment is downloaded, the file is saved on the desktop, but it weighs 0 kb. Do you have an idea what could be the cause?

I'm using Thunderbird for Windows 10 and I like it.

The issue is for Windows 11 on my laptop. The little cloud icon to download the newest emails that is on Thunderbird for Win 10 is missing on the version for Win 11; or, is it somewhere that I cannot find. OR it simply doesn't exist anymore.

Thanks !

I normally have the full list of folders on the left pane of my window, and then in the right side I have the list of emails in the upper pane and the email preview in the lower pane. This worked fine in the previous release. With 115, when I display a message preview, the left side of the email header is cropped, so I can't see the whole sender email address unless I expand the preview pane to the full possible width. The looks like a bug to me, I think the email header should always be visible from the left, and cropped on the right if the pane isn't large enough. Aside from making the font size unreadably small, is there a fix for this?

Using 115.3.3, I am able to adjust the width of other columns with the cursor, but it will not change to the "double bar" in the date column. The only way that I can adjust is by dragging other columns and thus affecting others. Am I missing something, or is this a possible bug that needs to be addressed in a future version? I am pretty sure that I've experienced this problem in earlier versions as well, because I've always struggled with getting the columns to my liking.

Not sure where to begin. Thunderbird has been working for years and now it no longer works. I can still get email if I go to my ISP but TB is so much better. I can do a remote access if needed so you can get your questions answered most easily. I am familiar with TeamViewer. I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling. The only message is: "Host contacted, sending login information..." but does not get beyond that. I am so frustrated. I have everything backed up using MozBackup. Any help would be most appreciated.
