Recently I opened a website that had redirected me to some random site, I closed the tab immediately but now I keep getting spam notifications saying I may have a virus or various things from the site. I've tried to silence the site, I've ran security tests on my computer and they say it's fine, I just don't know how to silence the website or wipe it from my computer.

Today, my inbox has gotten partially corrupted. After updating to version 128, my Thunderbird has been very sluggish. While trying to troubleshoot that, I used Properties->Repair Folder on the inbox, which is when the current problem started.

In the main inbox window, everything looks fine. All emails are there, with correct subject names and correspondents, etc. Everything received before April 8 this year looks to be unaffected, but if I try to open up anything later than that, it displays a chunk of a completely different email from like 2007, with the From: and Subject: fields blank.

Additionally, doing the repair marked all emails from April 21, 2008 and earlier as unread.

I use POP3 to download all emails to my computer, two addresses going to the inbox.

I tried using Properties->Repair Folder again, but it still leaves the same result.

If I open the gigantic "Inbox" file in my Thunderbird profile folder in notepad++, scrolling down to the bottom I see the emails are still there, so they're not completely missing. In between the last good email and the first bad one, there is a huge section that starts with:

--=-SgCIEz327q/2h3s2MXJ25A== Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Content-Id: <92b40d02-593e-4a4a-8768-a31f564d0d90> Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

and then hundreds of lines of gibberish, followed by "--=-SgCIEz327q/2h3s2MXJ25A==--" and then it goes to the next email.

In Outlook, when I navigate to a folder and reply to an email in that folder, the email I send is automatically categorised into that folder, and no other copy appears elsewhere (such as in the 'Sent' folder).

Is this behaviour natively possible in Thunderbird without resorting to an add-on?

I realise there is the option to 'Place replies in the folder of the message being replied to' in the 'Copies & Folders' settings of the email account, but this places a second copy in the 'Sent' folder. I tried experimenting with the radio button options '"Sent" Folder on' and 'Other' in the same settings section, but no combination seems to place one and only one email corresponding to the email I sent in the folder I emailed from without creating a copy in the 'Sent' folder of the account.

I keep getting: Save Login for http://blabla.xyz?!!

if i say 'never' it just keeps asking.

now your saying. aah. thats cause it cannot differentiate a ipv4 and a hostname.


The gethostbyname() function returns a structure of type hostent for the given host name. Here name is either a hostname or an IPv4 address

i wonder then what this browser does. not remembering by name. here thus the word never is better replaced by -> ask me again next time.

Background: I have two PC's accessing profiles and data on an NAS device. Automatic upgrade to TB 128 went fine on laptop, but on desktop (which installed after laptop), TB did not find the desktop profile (I think--it displayed the create a new account screen when it started). I manually added accounts and pointed them to Local Storage location on NAS. Had to re-enter some settings (e.g. incoming email notification), but all seems okay on email side.

However, my calendar and tasks do not display. I use a local calendar, plus Google, which was not showing in 128. Added Google and it works fine, but local events and todos do not display. I located the local.sqlite file in my desktop profile and viewed it with DB Browser utility. I can see tables and I can find both event and todo data. I restored a backup from before the upgrade, but still no events/todos in TB (the backup file shows events/todos using the utility).

Any advice on next steps to fix this? Thanks.

Windows 10, ESET antivirus, Thunderbird 129.0b6 . POP account I have two email accounts in Thunderbird, I opened Thunderbird and discovered that in one account the body(message) of many emails were blank. After reviewing the support pages I saw that someone with a similar issue was instructed to select "Repair" folder to fix it. I tried this and now there are no emails or headers showing in my inbox. I can go to the webmail and see them and see them on my cell phone but not in Thunderbird. Any hep would be greatly appreciated.
