Trying to setup a new mail account in Thunderbird, it finds the configuration in Mozilla ISP database (POP3) but does accept the password. Yet I can setup OK Yahoo Mail with same address and password

I use k-9 email on android phone and tbird on desk top.

I have messages on K9 I need to read on desktop but the don't appear on tbird client even though they are clearly visible on k-9

I tried to forward it but even tho k9 appears to send it is not delivered when I look in tBird

I need attachement.

I am an aged pensioner of limited means & have already provided monthly donation to Mozilla & possibly other parts thereof & now you're asking for more donations from those in favor of / & already supporting. Does you're management of various aspects of your endeavours need to be rationalised??? & so increase support for your causes? Thunderbird, Mozilla & perhaps other aspects thereof?

I have 2 email addresses in use [edited from public] but this form has not been assembled to be informed of such situations!

I have an external drive that for compatibility reasons is formatted as NTFS. All other applications don't have compatibility issues, but having the Thunderbird profile folder be stored on the NTFS breaks multiple things, saved passwords get reprompted every time, adding a new account does not make the account show up etc.

How fix?

My email address is [edited] @roadrunner.com Since early May, I haven't been able to get emails because I keep getting asked for a master password. I don't know it - I don't remember ever having to create one. Please help.

Hello My friend is visually impared and is having great difficulty seeing to read emails. Is there any way to use Thunderbird to get the emails and then read them with text to speech to audio. Or can anyone think of another way. I will have to be simple too. Thanks.

My send email button has dissapeared . I am unable to send any emails. Geek Squad has spent several hours trying to get my email send button back. They say there is a glitch in Thunderbird. Please fix it. My phone number is [edited phone# from public support forum]

Outlook.com and Microsoft inform me that in September 2024, Outlook 2007 will no longer work for email because it does not meet their spiffy new authentication thingy. They want me to quit using Windows 7, but I need it to run legacy productivity software for which there is nothing comparable. So, Windows 7 it is. I do have a dual boot system that includes Windows 10, but I don't want to mess with it for email if possible.

Microsoft suggested that Thunderbird would work, so I downloaded it. That's when everything went sideways. There is no utility to move my existing files and folders intact from Outlook 2007 to Thunderbird. I tried Thunderbird's Import but it refuses to cooperate. So, last chance for Thunderbird is contacting you.

Help me make a clean transition from Outlook 2007 to Thunderbird without losing contacts, folders and files.

On the top of the left side of the incoming email page, next to my email address, I would like the following alternatives to appear: answer, answer all, forward . . . I have had them before, have never had a problem with them, but I must have pressed the wrong key as now I get the following instead: an icon with a pin-up button, a phrase about filtering, and then five icons with an envelope, a star, a notebook . . . What do I need to do to recover the original layout?

While this note is probably the wrong way to ask for help for which I apologise, I am moving from Seamonkey to Firefox and Thunderbird. I have managed to get Firefox to work but don't know how to get my Seamonkey e-mail moved to Thunderbird.

If some kind soul could point me to a place or person where I can get detailed instructions on moving my e-mail from Seamonkey to Thunderbird, I would be incredibly appreciative. Again, I know I am probably asking this question in the wrong forum, but I have tried everything I can think of with no usable result. I ask that whoever reads understands getting up in years is frequently a difficult process. Oh yes, I go back to the early Netscape days as a user.

Thanks, in advance, for any and all assistance.

Setting Up Thunderbird for AT&T Email I've used Thunderbird as my email client for years; however, about a month ago it stopped working and now I receive the following message, "Sending of password for user [email scrubbed] did not succeed. Mail server inbound.att.net responded: [SYS/TEMP] Server error - Please try again later". What do I need to do to get things working again in Thunderbird?

G'day, I cannot understand why I cannot get to send any e-mails. I receive this popup. I have no idea what I did. I am in my 80s and was born too early to grasp a lot of I T.' I would appreciate somebody to tell me what I need to do please. Cheers Malcolm

The email address that I have used ever since email began has been [edited] @qis.net. Unfortunately, the inbox storage space on Quantum Internet Service (QIS) is only 1GB. I use Thunderbird for emails (recommended by QIS). The account with QIS is an IMAP account.

Yesterday at 4:40pm my inbox became full even though I have moved a bunch of the emails with larger attachments to offline folders within Thunderbird. That's when the nightmare started. No incoming emails can get delivered at this time. Have been in contact with QIS (I personally know everyone there including the owners. They're good people) It seems that we do not have a way to get into the inbox and remove files from their server (s).

After working all night trying to sole this mess, I have set up a new email address to maintain a form of communications on a major engineering project.

The new email address for me should be changed to : [edited] @gmail.com

Please make this change at Firefox. When I try to login on Firefox, it sends a code to the old, non-usable email address. Since the inbox at QIS is full, I can't read it to get the code to respond. If the code can be sent SMS to my cell phone, that would be fine. [removed phone# from public support forum] is the number to use.

I hope all this makes some sense at your end. I am not a guru with this stuff and a very dear friend of mine who was an "IT guru", as I called him, has passed away about 1 year ago.

I appreciate any help you give.
