I’m hoping that there is someone out there that could help me with my e-mail problems.

I have been a Thunderbird user for what seems like 30 years or more, but certainly it is a long time. For the best part of this time, so at least for over 15 years, I have been having problems that no one has been able to help me with. But, I just love how Thunderbird is laid out, and honestly, I am a creature of habit! Many friends have advised I move somewhere else, but have refrained to do so.

Where to start! My initial provider was madasafish, and later ported over to Thunderbird. After a few years, a female techie. friend set up my mails to use on PlusNet, so I could receive and send on my mobile too.

This went fairly well for a while, until PlusNet were not providing a very good service for e-mails, so now it is nearly impossible to use PlusNet, as after each action such as transferring an e-mail to a folder, it goes into refresh mode, and can sit there for minutes or hours! Is it possible to sync. my e-mails with a better provider other than PlusNet, and if so, could you please help me out with this?

However, a problem that I’ve had for some time now is not only have I lost a lot of e-mails from Thunderbird (and no one has been able to help me to recover them), but I am having difficulty sending e-mail from Thunderbird. The limitation of data now allowed on Thunderbird is very limiting, so I have had to learn from my son how to save my e-mails in a separate folder on my pc at a too regular basis.

What has motivated me to write again after so many years, is that it appears that there are changes coming about by Thunderbird that have been recently advertised, and I was rather hoping that there would be some developments that could make my life easier after such a long time.

You don’t have to be a techie. to recognise that I am not, so if anyone has the knowledge and patience to help me out, I would be very grateful.

when the error login to server imap-mail.outlook.com with username maxg41@outlook.com failed. changing the password when prompted does not allow server connection. Could you please explain how I can overcome it.

Two months ago I had to install Thunderbird as New and I can't access my personal Gmail account. Everytime it fails to connect to gmail servers (Error 400). Two others, also Gmail work fine and in other programs like Vivaldi Mail, Outlook, Windows Mail it works seamlessly, but for more than 20 years I was using my Favourite Thunderbird. The problem persists even after todays upgrade. I tried even with portable version and tripple-checked the password and Servers setting.

I ran out of ideas.

Can you help?

When I create a 'saved search' in Thunderbird by using the File>New>Saved Search... menu the "folder" is created but is empty even if the search was valid. After restarting TB the saved search "folder" disappears.

How do I fix this?

I have been looking for a while but unable to see if this is possible or if there are any addons that can help

I use the tagging feature and have my tags shown at the top. However, I am prone to forgetting that email have been tagged as at a glance it is not really possible to tell if there are any tagged emails in the folder

Is there a way to set a "count" next to each tag so that I can tell if there is still emails requiring attention? If not, is this something that has been looked at?

When I click the button to “repair a folder”, some e-mails have disappeared.

The inbox file is too heavy and cannot be opened as a text file.

I moved the defaults file to an external HDD and saved it over the defaults file on my computer. I could not restore them.

Is there any other way to recover my email?

For some reason I'm now getting a bunch of system information showing in the header part of displayed emails and in forwarded emails. I've included two images, one that shows the information in an email that I received, and a second one that shows just part of the information when I try forwarding that email. I don't believe I've changed any Thunderbird settings nor do I recall any updates having been installed.

Any help greatly appreciated.

It seems since the latest update to FireFox (129.0) I am no longer able to pick a search engine to use, I can click on DuckDuckGo or any other choice for a search and no search engine will come up?? Thank You for any help or suggestions.

I have downloaded and deleted Firefox a dozen times and history and cache and still it is not allowing me to have the Chose User Profile to pop up

I have been trying for the last 2 days to get the Firefox -Choose User Profile to come up and each time I add the below in the terminal

/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/Firefox-bin -P

I get

Alans-MacBook-Pro:~ alanbmillard$ /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/Firefox-bin -P -bash: /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/Firefox-bin: No such file or directory Alans-MacBook-Pro:~ alanbmillard$

So it states no such file or directory when Firefox is definately in the Applications folder

Any thoughts or suggestions? Thank you in advance

Hello, after exporting the mail, the ZIP file weighs over 40 GB. How to restore all emails from this file to new mail? When extracting a 7zip file, various errors pop up with this archive

There has to be a way, but I can't find it. How do we enlarge the font size for tabs, toolbar, favorites, search bar etc. I like that we can customize the colors but the font size seems to have been left out. I know we can ctrl + to enlarge what's in the browser window but this has no effect on the actual browser fonts. They are wayyyy to tiny. Is there a fix for this?

Hi everyone,

I use Firefox as my primary browser for several reasons, but the main one is because it has the best Picture-in-Picture (PiP) feature. However, I no longer use Windows and have encountered problems with it on various Linux distributions (Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian...). Currently, I'm only using Fedora 40, and the problem persists.

The issue is that when I click on the PiP icon, it activates normally, but when I switch windows or minimize and then maximize Firefox again, the video disappears.

I will attach some screenshots to clarify the issue.

I would like to know if there is any way to resolve this. I’ve already reset the settings, cleared the cache, and tested different installation methods (software store, .tar.bz file, apt, dnf, snap). I’ve tried troubleshooting mode and even installed the Developer Edition, but the problem persists. I’m wondering if this is an issue with the Linux version of Firefox.

Thank you.
