There's an article that says we can change where attachments are stored by going to tools, options, attachments. However, I have no "options" under "tools." Thanks in advance.

Hi, I added this https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/added.atom and in Thunderbird I do not see the summary tag data :(

Is it expected?

Hi,

I repaired my inbox yesterday. I had many messages still in that inbox but after the repair I only see 5 messages. I looked in the directory my profile points to for my email and can see a large Inbox file - but I also see a very small Inbox.msf file. It is almost like the process of rebuilding is pointing to another Inbox file. See the picture attached.

I even tried to take a previous copy of the Inbox.msf file from a backup (it was 800 kb). I deleted the old Inbox.msf file and replaced with the larger 800 kb file. When I opened Thunderbird, it started to something: "Building summary file for inbox" and about a minute later those same 5 emails show - instead of the full Inbox I would have expected.

Is there anyway I can re-associate the Inbox.msf file process rebuild/repair to the correct Inbox file (the one that is 737 meg in this case)? I sure would like to get my inbox messages back (and file them away i/o leaving them there vulnerable to this kind of problem in the future).

Thanks in advance,

Patrick

Outlook email accounts are duplicating and asking for passwords which are in the password manager. T/B does not accept the entered password. Gmail accounts are also duplicating and adding weird passwords. Just started last week. Probably has something to do with the new Microsoft Authorizarion rules. It is a mess. I have been a lifetimme used if Mozilla and Thunderbird.

I have Windows 11, Firefox yahoo email. I must have clicked somewhere that consolidated all my email to the left in a narrow format. Can't locate where to correct it. Also had no luck attaching a screen shot. Next to the condensed email, is another column that is blank except for the white envelope. Is there a place where I can change the format? Thank you.

I can't stay on this site for very long at all, and do my best to write out what I need as quickly as possible then leave. I would never contribute to answering any questions other then my own because how bright it is will eventually cause me pain.

In my view, it represents an amateurish view on website design and likely has an impact of skewing the regular user base to people that don't mind it.

Sincerely,

A user who only subjects themselves to this painfully, pointlessly white website if they absolutely have to.

Good Day!,

After masking them with my duck duck go service, I can't find the link to verify my emails. Where can I see any return responses using my mask email?

Not always, but frequently when I delete an email from an inbox, the other emails are hidden for awhile. This occurs whether I am pressing Del while the email is visible, or pressing Del with the email selected in the Inbox. If, however, I immediately open another folder and then re-open the inbox, all emails are instantly visible. Am I doing something wrong, or is this a "feature"?  ;-) Regards, Dave

Why won't Thunderbird send emails when connected to NordVPN? I have spoken to Spectrum and NordVPN and both of them have suggested that Thunderbird is the issue. I have confirmed that my SMTP settings are correct. I can send and receive from the Web client's site. I have turned off NordVPN and the sending process works as expected. However when I turn NordVPN back on, my outgoing emails are blocked.

Hi, I just reopened Thunderbird after my computer was shut down automatically after a Dell firmware update. I had 15 email tabs open before this -- things I wanted to go back to or that reminded me to do something. They are now empty! I have gone into Troubleshoot mode a couple of times and restarted Thunderbird. I've also checked the "remove addons (or something like that)" check box. No luck. Can someone out there help? I'm going to try restarting my computer now. Thanks!

I have been a long term Firefox user, but recently Firefox on Ubuntu seems to have more and more problems.

Here is the most recent one: I can't buy bus tickets on a largest provider in Lithuania (nothing happens after clicking "Pay").

https://autobusubilietai.lt/en

It worked in Chromium Browser.

Tried normal, private mode, safe mode and nothing worked.

I have Firefox 127.0.2 (64-bit) on Ubuntu 22.04. I have 0 extensions or addons installed.

Another one: I cannot select the country code from the drop down list when entering phone number in Ryanair, so basically I can't buy flight tickets from there. Chromium Browser didn't work as well, but Safari did.

I recently bought a new laptop and didn't import Firefox to the new one. Now I can't access my passwords etc on Firefox because it asks my for my primary password. I have no idea what that might be. Does anyone know if there is any way to recover the passwords please?

Hi,

I use fire fox as my default browser. It is still the default but now when I go to search the yahoo start page comes on. I cannot search with fire fox as this stupid yahoo home page over rides it. Please help!

Thanks Briony

There’s right-click + “Forget about this site”, but that deletes the information for the entire second-level domain (say example.org).

When in the process of moving things from *.example.org to *.example.com peu à peu, then I need to be able to individually forget say chat.example.org because it’s already moved to chat.example.com but retain all information for other *.example.org hosts.

Whenever I select an email in my Inbox which has attached files (of any type) i get this pop-up, one for each attachment. https://assets-prod.sumo.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/media/uploads/images/2024-07-02-00-10-20-f3ab8a.png This has only been occurring since I updated to Ubuntu 24.04 and Thunderbird 115.12.0-2 If I click on the "Find more in Software" button I get a message 'Failed to execute child process "Gnome Software" (No such file/directory)'. I have searched for a solution but can only find a reference which suggests that the problem has something to do with Evolution, (the file handler, not Darwin's theory). Any suggestions? Cheers Ian

Dear friends,

I am using Firefox Browser 127.0.2 (64-bit) on a PC.

Sometimes it happens that an input field on a page in an IFRAME cannot be clicked. The buttons work, but you can't enter anything in the text field.

Only when I press in the address bar and then in the text field, now I can enter text in the text field.

Example page https://www.fantastic-food.ch Then click on the "Feedbacks" link.

Does anyone have an idea?

Kind regards Uwe

Using TBird 15.10.1 64-bit on my Windows 10 desktop system, I find under Tools | Address Book a down arrow to the left of Personal Address Book; clicking on it displays all my created address lists, which are available when I compose a message to send.

Using 15.10.1 64-bit on my Windows 11 laptop, the down arrow does not appear and I have no access to those lists.

Am using IMAP on both systems. Tried importing lists as a CSV file; no effect. How can I get access to my address lists on both PCs?
