Thunderbird Community Forum

I have a folder containing messages sent to/from a company (two different contacts). When I go to that folder I want to be able to see the individual messages. Instead, I see them by conversation (each item summarizes multiple messages). That's not how I want to see them. This changed very recently from the default of individual messages and I don't know how or why. How do I reset this please?

Hello volunteers -- I downloaded Thunderbird to a newer iMac. The Input messages and folders from my laptop appeared fine, but the addresses look like they are from Contacts rather than the laptop Address Book, i.e., names, phone numbers and postal addresses, but not email addresses. The first image (screenshot from an Apple laptop) is what I want; the second is what I got on the iMac. Is someone able to help me with this? Thanks very much, Susan

I have all my accounts set to send only text/plain messages. But in the message composer, an entire toolbar row (disabled until editor has focus) appears at the head. It should go away, not appear, be hidden.

What would you do if I formatted the message since the account setting is "always plain text?" Unknown.

Also, an entire toolbar line is devoted to presenting "Variables" and "Other" dropdowns. Just two buttons, both of which I will not use in my lifetime.

Removing these spurious items will make the UI more legible, less distracting, professional.

Thanks for the great products. Been using since v 1.0, along side Mosaic, Netscape, and FF.

Hi!

How can I add a hiperlink / link with my Private Policy and Cookies to my signature?

Please send me an instruction.

Thanks

I have suddenly noticed that some sub folders in my account are not being displayed in the folders pane. I have checked the local profile folder and it contains the folder Inbox.sbd, but the contents are not displayed. I've tried various checks from other users but none work!

A complete novice, so please keep things simple. I recently changed email host/provider and was advised to back up my existing Thunderbird profile which I did. I have now an Sbd file. I want to reinstall the profile and I have used the import prompts on Thunderbird, but I dont seem to be able to import anything.

At the moment I do not have access to previous emails, addresses etc. Please advise, thanks in advance. Stuart

I am unable to send emails from my Thunderbird email account. There is no "dashboard" or options bar displayed when I hit "reply" to a message. Nor is there such an options bar to create emails.

This is worrisome.

Please advice.

Hi I have been using Thunderbird as my email client, which has worked fine. However, after an automatic update of Thunderbird, all my "historical" emails have disappeared and no longer show in my inbox or folders. I located the pop3 directory in roaming/appdata/thunderbird, but have not been able to import the mail file or the directory using either the import feature in thunderbird or the installed importexporttools ng.

I appreciate your help to retrieve my emails.

I use both Thunderbird and Outlook for my cox.net email account. I can receive incoming emails using Thunderbird but cannot send emails, and I can both receive and send emails using Outlook. The server settings are identical for both Thunderbird and Outlook - imap with STARTTLS and port 993 and smtp with STARTTLS and port 587. When Thunderbird is unable to send an email, I get a balloon that indicates that the smtp server cannot recognize my email address, which is hklesserjr@cox.net.

Don't know what else I could say more than what's in subject. Tried deleting all emails in inbox can't do it. Thunderbird freezes up. There's 45,000 emails in inbox suddenly. Have combed and read comments seems no help anywhere. Anybody please help.

Hi; Having many issues in the new Ver. 115 Can not send some emails, some work some don't? Emails not showing up in sent mail folder? Some do some don't. Very inconsistent. Very strange and inconsistent Issues such as can not send with 1 email account but can with another even though both use the same outgoing server. When switching folders they now go to oldest message. Archived Folders have disappeared (started a new thread on this)

What the H*** is going on? Is there a fix?

Hello all together! I have a question concerning the grouped folder functionality in TB 115. I use TB for some years now and updated to the latest version 115 the other day and the installation worked fine. All my accounts are still there and synchronize as before. But when I switch to the grouped folder view I do not see any mails there in the inbox. No content from any of my accounts at all. Also I can not find any swith in the grouped inboxfolder settings that allows me to check if the accounts are "in" there. I hope that you have some ideas for me, what is going wrong and how I can fix it. I attach two screenshots that hopefully describe the issue sufficiently.

Thanks in advance for your support!

After downloading an email from my gmail account thunderbird uses 90% of ram and is essentially frozen. Initially after starting Thunderbird is not responding followed by a slow increase in ram usage to about 90% is ibserved. Tried uninstall and install; but not change in behaviour. Any suggestions of how to repair would be welcome.

Thank You,

This program is deeply flawed. It's slow & must be rebooted multiple times a day. Then at times it works just fine. What's the problem & how to fix? The address book doesn't show what folder you put a contact in. The old version did. This is a flaw too.

TB upgraded to 115.0.1 this morning, (although PCMatic has been telling me this had happened yesterday). Now I find that Search (Ctrl-Shift-F) no longer gives consistent results, and never end searching.
