I have POP3. Thunderbird leaves all messages on server. I have to use another app to remove them from the server.
I've read some messages here that there's a setting to Leave or Not Leave messages on the server. I haven't been able to find this setting.

Can no longer export messages as single text file, nor export messages AND attachments. NG Export worked beautifully, but no longer does. The only options for NG Export are now to export the profile, and for Thunderbird itself copy and past Emails ONLY as emls. Help!

I updated to 125 in order to install a new version of an add-on that has been made compatible. But two other add-ons are now incompatible.
How do I roll back to 115? I have a backup of my hard drive with 115 installed and working. Is it enough to copy the old Thunderbird folder and the /Program Files/Mozilla Thunderbird folder?

July 2024 - Thunderbird is demanding that I change my Hotmail password, after long trouble -free operation. It will not login. Why? (I have not changed the PW yet, hoping for a solution that will avoid the necessity.) I fear that it may be due to some fault in OAuth. Can anyone please provide any help to overcome this problem? Tom.

We just got a new computer because the previous computer died. I downloaded and installed Thunderbird on the new machine, which has Windows 11. I entered my name, email *@nc.rr.com and password. It had IMAP configuration on the screen and when I clicked 'Done', it gave me the error "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password." When I tried changing it to POP and clicked "Done", I got the same error.
There is a 'configure manually' link, but I do not know how to do that. Please let me know what I should do.

Since I installed Thunderbird on my new computer, I have been unable to send email using Thunderbird with my Spectrum account. I can receive email using Thunderbird with no problem.
I called Spectrum tech support and they confirmed that I can both send and receive email from their webmail app, so the problem is not on their end. They also gave me the correct settings to use for Outgoing mail, which I entered within the Thunderbird Account Settings. I read the articles on the Thunderbird support site, but they did not fix my problem.
My Thunderbird version is 115.12.1.0. My OS is Windows 11.
The attached photos show the failure message I am getting and also the account settings. Please let me know if you have any questions or if you need anymore information.
I really like Thunderbird from my previous experience so I really hope that you all can help me overcome this issue. My wife can send email from her phone but we really want to be able to do it from the desktop as well. Please help!
Thanks, Bruce

I just asked a question about how contacts are displayed to the left of a "New Message" screen. did not want to see the list of which of my address books each contact is located in. I figured out how to get rid of that list, so my question can be ignored. Thank you. Connie Yanicka

It should be very simple and no add on needed.
For some reason, all of a sudden, in the correspondence column it ALSO shows the email address.
All I want is for that to be removed. That's all.

I am trying to follow the directions in this article: [[Microsoft OAuth Authentication and Thunderbird in 2024|https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/microsoft-oauth-authentication-and-thunderbird-202]]
In the sending messages section, Step 4 says: "Select Authentication method: OAuth2 (instead of Normal password)" However, there is no drop-down item called "OAuth2". This menu item was present for the incoming mail authentication, but not in the outgoing.
In short, a menu item in the directions is missing. My Thunderbird is up-to-date.
Thanks, Kevin

I am a bit confused!
If I compose a message and start typing in the address field ("Partington") then 2 addresses are shown. One is the right one and one is an old one that I do not want.
However, if I look in my Address Book and select "All Address Books" then the old address is not shown. Can anyone suggest where it is picking this up from?

Using Thunderbird 128.0.1esr (64-bit)
I have just bought a new Windows 11 laptop to replace older model. Using the old laptop, email messages are displayed in a single line format, which you click to open the message.
Using the new laptop, messages are displayed in two lines, taking up more space.
I much prefer the less cluttered format, and wondered whether anyone could advise the settings I need to alter.
Grateful for any advice.

Hello everyone, I have stored several e-mail addresses for most of my contacts (private address, business address, etc.) and now I want to create mailing lists that use different addresses of those contacts for different uses. But even if I add a specific address of a contact in a mailing list the address is altered to the address that ist marked as standard for this contact on saving the mailing list. So all mailing lists end up with the same addresses for the same contacts instead of different ones. Is that a intended behavour? Or in other words: mailing lists can solely contain addresses marked as 'standard'. It is not possible to use a 'alternative' e-mail address in a mailing list. I hope there is a way to achieve this which I haven't found so far. Kind regards, Peter

I am currently using 128.0.1esr (64-bit).
How do I set the colour scheme to be as it was before the latest update? In particular, how do I set the background colour of ALL screens to be white? In the list of emails (e.g the Inbox) the coloured tags that I use are difficult to spot against a black background.
This is the second time that an update has made significant changes to how the system looks. The last time I managed to live with it.

Fresh Install of Thunder Bird. Trying to send a new e-mail but not finding a SEND command there is only a SEND LATER button. Is there something wrong with my set-up that I need to change?
Also how can I change the font size of the tiles in my folders. I've searched the set-up over and over and not seeing an option for a font change. There is only a font change for new email.
Thanks Mike

For some while I've had a Windows 10 desktop and a Windows 10 laptop. I used to keep my mail using Thunderbird in sync on these two machines by just copying the profiles from one to the other. Just recently the laptop stopped working so I got another, which came with Windows 11. I duly installed Thunderbird on that and copied the profiles from my desktop to it, and it happily worked. However when I copied the profiles back from the laptop to the desktop Thunderbird said something like "you've started an old version of Thunderbird with new profiles - you'll have to set it all up again." Is that true? Is there a version of Thunderbird for Windows 10 which will acccept the profiles from the Windows 11 version? Is there some routine that will convert the Windows 11 format profiles etc to the format used by the Windows 10 version? When I look at Apps & features in Settings on Windows 10 it says that Thunderbird is "Mozilla Thunderbird (x86 en-GB) 115.13.0" Help About on Thunderbird on Windows 11 says it is 128.0.1csr (64-bit) Thank you Regards Alan Sandell
