Greetings.

For lack of anything better I'm using TBird as an HTML editor.

I'm writing a rather long paper that includes many images. Backing up as I go, I use the 'Export Message As > HTML Format > Messages And Attachments' ... and it works fine and processes the images this way:

Anyway -- this is kinda hard to explain -- as long as I was 'working within TBird' everything was fine, but I ended up modifying my HTML via text editor to do a few things that were impossible to do in the graphical TBird screen (tweaking some math equations). So now my draft message needed to be updated with the new HTML. I use 'Insert > HTML' and paste in the entire contents of my paper and then Send it to myself. I get it back, open it and there's no images, just blank boxes.

But ... and this is interesting ... if I then take that message and save it again as HTML (as above) then if I view that HTML in FireFox, voila! It shows the images. So how can I take my HTML, import it to an email and then 'Edit As New Message' or whatever trick is needed to have the paper back with it's images intact? I hope that's not too confusing.

and I immediately began scrambling to get it back. I found this somewhere: "Don't Delete Files" is the preferred option because it saves the old profile's folder and allows you to recover the files to a new profile. So that gave me hope because that's what I had clicked (unfortunately, it was right before I saw the cancel button over on the right). That's what I get for being in a hurry I guess.

Anyhow, after 4 days of reading support forums and tons of trial and error, I'm no closer to restoring that profile than when I first started (although I've learned a lot about what does NOT work).

Btw, both my profiles have always been set up as POP3 at Gmail, although if I ever get this current problem sorted out I'll be shopping for a different POP3 provider. But that's another story.

I know how to create a new profile with Profile Manager. And I found the Profiles folders under both Thunderbird folder as well as ThunderbirdOLD folder. Have I been on the right track so far?

In the Thunderbird/Profiles folder, I don't see a folder with the deleted profile name (except the new ones (duds) I've since created ). On the other hand, I don't see the name of the profile that I did NOT delete either, but somehow it seems to be working just fine. Maybe it's the ".default" folder or ".default-release" folder? I've only ever had two profiles and I may have created the non-deleted profile first, so did that one end up being named .default? -shrug- I have no clue.

Anyhow, in the ThunderbirdOLD/Profiles folder, I also see ".default" as well as ".default-release" folders too. But in addition, I'm seeing a ".deletedprofile" named folder. So that's where I originally thought my several dozen email folders with several thousand emails and Address Book etc are hiding. But I've copied all the above mentioned folders into the several new Profiles I've created, on a trial and error basis but so far..... no luck. All I get when I open one is the new set up screen to set up a new pop3 account.... which I can do, but that's just starting from scratch without any of my saved data. I'm running out of ideas.

Where am I going wrong?

Hello, Please tell me, according to this code, on which date should the email be sorted for received in the Date column: August 6th or June 8th? The email was sent on August 6th, but TB sorted it into the Date column on June 8th? Why? Where is the problem?

Since Thunderbird was last updated on the 5th August, the page to compose a new email, no longer has a "send" or "attach" tab. I cannot now send any emails through Thunderbird. I have requested technical support twice, however, the only response has been an automated message saying someone will get back to me. That has not happened. I am only able to send any emails via our internet provider's website, which is Slingshot.co.nz.

I haven't tried to print an email for some time. Tried today and just get an endless "preparing preview" message -see the attached screenshot. I can't find any setting to select a printer etc so I am stuck.

Any help appreciated

email sign-on repeatedly asks for imap and other parameters to be re-entered on both google email and mozilla thunderbird. Please try to help and/or call me at 614-218-5719 EST

Hey, I am wondering: If someone has a Mozilla Account, would it be a separate account from Thunderbird? Do users also need a different username and password if they are also using Thunderbird, or does their Mozilla login work for all services under the Mozilla umbrella?

The new edition released today doesn't allow the Keyboard "Return" Key to accept the recommended spelling correction. You must now click the "Replace" Icon in the Check Spelling Pop-up. Is there a setting/other where this can be adjusted/modified so that the Keyboard Return Key works again?

I have a problem with not receiving emails. My inbox is 100% full even after I deleted emails from the last couple of months. Can I ask for help? My thunderbird email is: gajos@muzeumgpe-chorzow.pl.

Hello, I transferred my emails from online MAC to local folders on an external drive, then re-copied them as my local folders on the WIN laptop... Yet after re-starting, the emails subject only shows-up while the message shows 0 bytes, despite the Inbox file shows >8GB, but is not recognized/read by the app. (seems to me indexing was lost?). Tried to import the file from the app's tool, but it didn't work as the tool expected a profile or outlook file. Any help to migrate my emails in a readable format? Thx.

Hallo, ich habe Windows 11 neu installiert, nun habe ich das Problem, das angeblich mein Mail Passwort nicht stimmt. Ich habe schon alles ausprobiert, die korrekten Passwörter von T-Online eingebeben, die Passwörter geändert, nichts hilft. Ich habe auch schon Thunderbird neu installiert, doch alles ohne Erfolg. Könntet ihr mir bitte weiterhelfen, das ich dieses wundervolle Programm wieder nutzen kann?

Hier noch mein System: i7 6700 K, WIN 11 HOME, GTX 970Grafikkarte, 500 GB SSD, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB Harddisk,

Danke im Voraus

Rainer

When I try to forward a message, the document format gets encoded and shows up with a bunch of technical details like ""Delivered-To:", "X-Google-Smtp-Source:", "X-Received:" and many others. I haven't included the data to the right of each item, as I'm not sure what it means or how it's related to solving the issue of the encoded format. This problem started after the latest update was installed. Can anyone advise me on what steps I should take to be able to forward email messages in a readable format? I am using Thunderbird release 128.1.0esr (64 bit) on Windows 10 Thank you, Paul

Hello, I'm Christian. I am still facing issues changing my Thunderbird into an IMAP account, for following reasons: -exporting the existing is OK -creating the IMAP account is OK -Reimporting the messages from previous POP3 account difficult, because: -when using the import fonction, a local folder is being created with a directory three that looks liked the previous Dir structure I had previously. But transfering the folder and files proves difficult, the copy/paste function does not work properly so I can't just click and drag. My thunderbird folder is approx. 20g, could that be the reason? Furthermore, I cannot delete the previous POP3 account or the local folders. Any idea why? I actually do have a thunderbird account (POP3) comprises of 4 differents email addresses, I can delete 3, but not the last one as it appears to be the default one. Thanks a lot for your support, much appreciated. Christian

Why do duplicate sub-folders appear in Thunderbird? In my personal folder I now have Sent and Sent Messages, bothe 'special' folders which can't be deleted. I have a similar situation in an folder for another email address (Sent + Sent Messages) AND in my Gmail folder, where not only are there 'Sent' & 'Sent Mail' folder but also two 'Drafts' folders as well as a 'Junk' folder and a 'Spam' folder. Each duplicate sub-folder contains slightly different messages and none can be deleted. See the attached image with the duplicates indicated.

What's going on and how can I resolve it to rationalize/simplify the structure?
