All emails look like they have arrived at the same minute - like now the latest email arrived is at 09:07, previous 5 emails arrived 08:07, all emails arrived yesterday showed as if they arrived 2024-07-30 22:07, 2024-07-30 21:07 and etc. Attaching screenshot of Date column of my emails. Not sure how to fix that. Thunderbird 115.13.0 (64-bit) on Fedora 40.

I have mapped Gmail / Hotmail / iCloud accounts to my Thunder bird mail client on my Windows 11 PC.

However of late I find that only the Hotmail account keeps popping up the dialog asking for password. This is quite a nuisance as Hotmail is my primary mail account. But the funny part is I do get mails in my InBox even if I cancel the dialog box. And even funny is it repeats the dialog even if enter the right password.

Appears to be some issue related with how password is handled.

Any help is appreciated ! Thanks

I'm runnning Thunderbird 128.0.1esr (64-bit) and use it to download email messages from an outlook.live.com server.

For many weeks now, Microsoft has been sending this warning to my old hotmail accounts: "To help keep your account secure, Microsoft will no longer support the use of third-party email and calendar apps which ask you to sign in with only your Microsoft Account username and password. To keep you safe you will need to use a mail or calendar app which supports Microsoft’s modern authentication methods. If you do not act, your third-party email apps will no longer be able to access your Outlook.com, Hotmail or Live.com email address on September 16th."

I tried switching the POP server setting on one of my hotmail accounts from "Normal password" to OAuth2, but then Thunderbird would stall when I to download mail. So I've had to switch Thunderbird back to "Normal password."

I've asked for help at the Mozillazine Thunderbird forum, but so far no one has been able to figure out a solution to this problem. So I'm hoping to find help here.

Greetings,

      I find the default body text font size for message composition to be too small. I can enlarge it by pressing control+ several times which solves the issue for the current session but the new setting is not saved as a default. The text size always keeps reverting back to tiny at the start of the next session.

     I have made numerous attempts to change the default message composition body text font size via advanced settings. So far I have not found an option that does the job.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

In the latest TB version, 128.0.1, emails I'm sending to oher people or even to myself are showing up in Sent but not being received by recipients- looks like big problem!

I just had the upgrade to version 128 and in the add ons it saying that confirm before delete is not avaiable for this version is there going to be an updated version for 128 as I have found this very useful add on very helpful

I have ver 128.0.1 and I cannot get it to show the details of an incoming email for a few seconds. Where will I find the setting for this? I found such a setting, set it for 4 seconds and nothig is shown when an email arrives.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

At least on Linux, all versions of Thunderbird with Supernova UI are unusable for emails which requires a hardware key to login. The "insert key / input PIN" never shows up in those versions. The bug presents on flatpak distributions and latest daily version (130) as well. The latest stable version that's working with hardware keys is 102, but it has some serious performance issues with large amount of calendar entries.

I appear to have somehow added a picture to my profile in Thunderbird. The picture isn't me, it's one of my friends. I have no idea how I did this and I can't find any information about how to add or remove profile pictures. Please can someone point me in the direction of a tutorial or instruction post.

Thank you.

Sehr geehrtes Support-Team,

ich habe ein dringendes Problem mit meinem E-Mail-Konto, das ich über Thunderbird verwalte. Leider kann ich mich seit kurzem nicht mehr anmelden, was besonders problematisch ist, da ich dieses Konto für berufliche Zwecke nutze.

Folgende Probleme sind aufgetreten:

Anmeldung fehlgeschlagen: Bei dem Versuch, mich anzumelden, erhalte ich die Nachricht, dass mein Passwort falsch ist. Leider erinnere ich mich nicht an mein aktuelles Passwort und konnte es auch nicht zurücksetzen.

Kontoerkennung: Obwohl mein Benutzername korrekt erkannt wird, führt dies nicht zur Lösung des Problems, da die Passworteingabe weiterhin scheitert.

Ich habe bereits folgende Schritte unternommen, um das Problem zu beheben:

Überprüfung der Internetverbindung Überprüfung der Kontoeinstellungen in Thunderbird Versuch, das Passwort zurückzusetzen Leider waren diese Maßnahmen nicht erfolgreich. Da ich dringend Zugriff auf mein E-Mail-Konto benötige, wäre ich Ihnen sehr dankbar, wenn Sie mir schnellstmöglich helfen könnten, das Problem zu lösen.

Bitte lassen Sie mich wissen, welche Informationen Sie von mir benötigen oder welche weiteren Schritte ich unternehmen kann.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Alaa Nasser

About Migration of Thunderbird to a new iMac, Used Apple Migration Assistant to transfer files to new iMac. Firefox only worked after required install of Rosetta. However Thunderbird did not. Message: "Thunderbird damaged. Can't be opened, move to Trash." Is there still a way to retrieve all T-bird on old iMac to new iMac?
