Dzień dobry,

przy odtworzeniu profilu Thunderbirda na nowym komputerze z Windowsem mam problem z wiadomościami, a mianowicie nie wyświetlają się - jest lista, ale z pustymi polami (zdjęcie w załączniku). Po kliknięciu na wiadomość pokazują się nagłówki. Problem raz na jakiś czas pojawia się u mnie w firmie na różnych stanowiskach. Edytując plik folderu wiadomości zauważyłem, że koniec linii jest zapisany w CRCRLF, zamiast CRLF. Naprawa folderu z poziomu Thunderbirda nic nie pomagała. Rozwiązaniem okazało się usunięcie nadmiarowego znacznika nowej linii CR - napisałem sobie program do tego celu, który udostępnię w sieci, ale fajnie by było, aby ta funkcja naprawy była w samym Thunderbirdzie.

pozdrawiam

I have used "All mail" option in Search Messages window to search and store in a local folder emails which were: - received recently and are unread - received in the past 7 days - sent in the past 7 days

Since yesterday (2024-07-17), the local folder (and subfolder) for them emails received (both unread and within 7 days) has disappeared. The one for sent is still there.

Most importantly, there is no option "All mail" in the Search Messages windows.

For the steps I have already tried, I have multiple email accounts within I need to search. And Global Search is activated. I have TB 1 profile. I have deleted the global-messages-db.sqlite and re-created it.

Thank you in advance for your help

I changed my email password with The Messaging Company but Thunderbird will not recognise the new password when I enter it into Thunderbird. I can access my email through the webmail for the Messaging Company but cannot access emails through Thunderbird

I use email 365 exchange by Thunderbird POP. Today Thunderbird pop up error message "The RETR command did not succeed". I can't send-recive email. Please help me fix it. Many thank!

Running Thunderbird 115.12.2 (32-bit)

I have setup a Message Filter to automatically transfer an email to a local folder. The transfer is not working even when I start the filter manually. I then tried to right click on the email and copy it to the local folder, but that also did not work.

I thought the problem might be with the local folder so I deleted it. When I attempted to add a folder with the same name, I was told that a folder with that name already exists. Very confusing.

I have several other similar filters that work properly.

Is the any log information that could provide a clue to what is not happening.

As of today, July 17, 2014, I cannot send messages on Thunderbird through Earthlink. When i send a message, I get an screen message that mentions being on the Vade Threat List. Further research informs me that Mozilla seems to regards Earthlink as an agent that spreads spam. I've been through Earthlink's preliminary process of troubleshooting, with no success. My situation has been elevated. Can you shed any light on what is going on?

For many years I've been getting my various podcasts by subscribing to the RSS feeds with Thunderbird. The podcast then appears as an attachment to a RSS item, which I can right-click and download.

Until a couple of weeks ago, possibly after I updated TB to 115.12.2 64bit.

RSS feed items no longer visibly have attachments. If they have a download link, I can right-clicking on it and Save As, but nothing happens and nothing is saved. If I left-click on it a player gadget opens and starts playing. I then have to right click on that and Save Audio.

Examle podcasts that are giving me trouble: https://feeds.acast.com/public/shows/0185cea5-9e3b-4b82-a887-26f91f92765f https://feeds.twit.tv/sn.xml http://risky.biz/rss.xml

Is there a config option I can set to restore the previous behaviour? I can't go on using TB for my podcsts as it is - it's too much of a pain.

We have 3 email accounts, each for out business. 1 of them stopped working several years ago with no resolve but we didn't use it that much to make it matter. Now our main email is not working. It stopped working on the 12th of July. We are not getting emails and our business RELIES on this. We are at a total loss. I've tried everything. I can send email from the main which is no longer working to the other one that still works but cannot send anywhere outside that. I'm not real knowledgeable with this stuff but I did empty the trash. We had 4 years of trash emails that needed dumped so I did that. Still notihing. The server is a POP3 and the port is correct. 110 is the default on all 3. The outgoing server (SMTP) what ever that is, is the default server for the email that is not working. WE ARE DESPERATE HERE. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP US.

Hi.

Why every time i run thunderbird and if i leave it open too often it bring me the error message for all hotmail/outlook mail accounts i have???

What the heck is happening and how i can solve this?

Hey newbie is here

I download a clean client for MacOS and add 3 emails. I can open the client and leave for a few hours. But when I focus again on the client it starts freezing and loading something. How can I fix these freezes?

Hi, I would like to add tasks to ‘my tasks’ however, I do not know how to connect a remote calendar that will be synced across all logged in devices. Please give me detailed instructions on how to add and select a calendar that supports tasks. I'll be gratefull for your help.

All of a sudden images are not shown when I open an e mail, doesn't matter what server it is coming from. I have tried all the suggestions listed I could find. The only new thing was Optus sent out a message to change from POP3 to IMAP if mail was being rejected by hotmail accounts.

When I went from Windows 7 to Windows 10, I thought I copied my profile folder from one computer to the other and then edited the profile.ini folder to use my old profile. That apparently doesn't work anymore. So, I uninstalled Thunderbird and restarted my computer. Reinstalled Thunderbird thinking I would have a fresh install. No, my old profile and edited profile.ini file are still there. How do I get rid of the changes that I made and transfer Thunderbird the correct way? TIA

Two emails arrive, and the badge displaying "2" appears on the taskbar icon for T-bird V. 115, POP, on a Windows 11 computer. There are no other unread emails. One email is read, and the 2 remains, instead of decrementing to 1. Then the second unread email is read, and the "2" still remains. The only way to get rid of the "2", which is now a false reading, is to close and reopen T-bird. Is there any reason, other than a bug, for the badge on the T-bird icon to be entirely unresponsive to reading all the remaining emails in the list? Are any Win 11 settings relevant for this issue area? [T-bird was downloaded yesterday, so up to date.]

I am on the 'Setup your Existing Email Address" tab/section in Thunderbird however after inputting the details of my existing email address I want to link with Thunderbird, at the bottom it just states "looking up configuration" but nothing happens. And yes, my email address details along with the password are correct.

Please help.

In working with T-Bird and trying to scroll an email, or sometimes scrolling folders (targets of rules) T-bird will stop responding. I have had this happen on two different W11 machines. ALT-F4 does not terminate T-Bird. I have to do the 3 finger salute, get into task manager and kill it from there. It will restart as if nothing happened. 115.8.1 (64-bit) is the level I am using. I see a new level is available, so I will try that in a while. (handling multiple tasks...).
