This is essentially the same problem as https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1430726 . I am running 128.1.0esr, and the problem surfaced recently. I installed 128.0.1esr (replacing 115.13.0) on July 31. and the problem might have been re-introduced there. I have not researched the version numbers, so I do not know why I went from 115.13.0 to 118.0.1esr.

Here is the problem. I want to see all of the mails with a certain string in the sender field. After I have typed the first character in the filter field, Thunderbird goes into a "Not Responding" state, and I see a spinning blue circle. After I have entered the entire string, it takes a while before TB becomes responsive. When TB becomes responsive, I can delete all of the selected messages (in less than a second). But when I then remove or change the string, TB takes a lot of time before becoming responsive again. Wayne Mery posted at the end of that other archived thread "115.9.0 has a patch related to quick filters which may help." Has that patch somehow been regressed? Thanks.

My Thunderbird just upgraded me from 115 to 128.1.0esr. After the upgrade I can no longer send emails. I receive emails but when I try to send them, after pressing the send button, nothing happens - no popup telling me that Thunderbird is trying to send the email or anything else. If I close the send box, it saves the email to drafts. - I have not changed any of the outgoing server details and all was working fine with the previous version - 115.??? (don;t remember the service release but I think it could have been 9). Any help to get this resolved would be appreciated.

Hello, I'm Christian. I am still facing issues changing my Thunderbird into an IMAP account, for following reasons: -exporting the existing is OK -creating the IMAP account is OK -Reimporting the messages from previous POP3 account difficult, because: -when using the import fonction, a local folder is being created with a directory three that looks liked the previous Dir structure I had previously. But transfering the folder and files proves difficult, the copy/paste function does not work properly so I can't just click and drag. My thunderbird folder is approx. 20g, could that be the reason? Furthermore, I cannot delete the previous POP3 account or the local folders. Any idea why? I actually do have a thunderbird account (POP3) comprises of 4 differents email addresses, I can delete 3, but not the last one as it appears to be the default one. Thanks a lot for your support, much appreciated. Christian

Here is the code to send and email with attachment from excel using outlook, I would like to send the email with Thunderbird and cannot work it out.

Sub EmailAspdf()

Dim EApp As Object Set EApp = CreateObject("outlook.application")

Dim EItem As Object

path = "C:\Users\nigel\OneDrive\Self Employed\invoices\" invno = Range("C3") custname = Range("B10") fname = invno & " - " & custname amt = Range("H41") dt_issue = Range("C5") term = Range("C6")

ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat _ Type:=xlTypePDF, _ IgnorePrintAreas:=False, _ Filename:=path & fname

Set nextrec = Sheet3.Range("A1048576").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)

nextrec = invno nextrec.Offset(0, 1) = custname nextrec.Offset(0, 2) = amt nextrec.Offset(0, 3) = dt_issue nextrec.Offset(0, 4) = dt_issue + term nextrec.Offset(0, 8) = Now

Sheet3.Hyperlinks.Add anchor:=nextrec.Offset(0, 6), Address:=path & fname & ".pdf"

   Set EItem = EApp.CreateItem(0)
           
   With EItem
   
       .To = Range("B16")
   
       .Subject = "Invoice PO No: " & Range("C4")
       
       .Body = "Hi," & vbCrLf & "Please find invoice attached." & vbCrLf & "Regards" & vbCrLf & "Nigel"
      
       .Attachments.Add (path & fname & ".pdf")
   
       .Display
       
   End With

Exit Sub

When I open an email and begin scrolling, the cursor will move several lines then stop. Moving the scroll wheel on the mouse does nothing, Than, after several seconds, the cursor will jump down several lines and begin working normally. Then it stops, pauses several seconds, then works. Scrolling is jumpy, erratic. I have a couple of other programs (word processor, browser) that I use the scroll wheel to scroll through documents, web sites, etc. and they all work fine. I only see this problem in TB.

Hello, Please tell me, according to this code, on which date should the email be sorted for received in the Date column: August 6th or June 8th? The email was sent on August 6th, but TB sorted it into the Date column on June 8th? Why? Where is the problem?

Since update to ver 128.1.0esr the "new subfolder" feature does not work (does not show window to name new folder). I have many subfolders and I rely on them heavily. I tried restarting Thunderbird, then Windows. I ran in debug mode with no success. I downloaded and installed 128.2.0esr again. No change.

Is it possible to go back to the earlier version? Which is? Thanks, Frederick

My email has been running slow and i do not have the technical skill to follow protocols from a website. Am desperately trying to speak with a human. I have moved and my former support help is 200 miles away, so dropped my computer off for the first time at a computer repair business who needs my user name and passwords. I realize my request sounds suspicious and am happy to verify all of my company details, but can not do this without your help. My cell is [edited phone# from public community forum]. Thank-you, Eric Ohanian PS-I no longer have access to email until my computer is returned. Is there any way someone can call? Or is there a phone number I can call to reach you?

I have been running Thunderbird for almost seven years now, and these behaviors have persisted since day one on my laptop and desktop computer. First, I have five accounts set up. I am running two add-ons (Provider for Google Calendar, and Quicktext). I am currently running a snap version 115.12.2 of Thunderbird on both machines and they both are running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Plenty of RAM and plenty of free disk space.

Here are the two issues...

1. More often than not, when an email comes into one of the inboxes and I am viewing the unified inbox there are two copies of the same email. If I switch back to the actual inbox of the account it only shows the one. This is very aggravating and when you start trying the delete emails from the unified inbox it gets all hosed up and I end up having to go to each individual mailbox to delete the messages.

2. This somewhat relates to issue one... Sometimes when an email is deleted from the unified inbox, a blank record remains like in the image. This shows only one but sometimes there are multiple ones. Of course, if I go to that message's inbox it is not there.

I have tried all the common things like deleting the index files to let the indexes rebuild, comparing folders etc., and again, this has been a persistent problem since day one. Any insight or solution would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you! Mike

and I immediately began scrambling to get it back. I found this somewhere: "Don't Delete Files" is the preferred option because it saves the old profile's folder and allows you to recover the files to a new profile. So that gave me hope because that's what I had clicked (unfortunately, it was right before I saw the cancel button over on the right). That's what I get for being in a hurry I guess.

Anyhow, after 4 days of reading support forums and tons of trial and error, I'm no closer to restoring that profile than when I first started (although I've learned a lot about what does NOT work).

Btw, both my profiles have always been set up as POP3 at Gmail, although if I ever get this current problem sorted out I'll be shopping for a different POP3 provider. But that's another story.

I know how to create a new profile with Profile Manager. And I found the Profiles folders under both Thunderbird folder as well as ThunderbirdOLD folder. Have I been on the right track so far?

In the Thunderbird/Profiles folder, I don't see a folder with the deleted profile name (except the new ones (duds) I've since created ). On the other hand, I don't see the name of the profile that I did NOT delete either, but somehow it seems to be working just fine. Maybe it's the ".default" folder or ".default-release" folder? I've only ever had two profiles and I may have created the non-deleted profile first, so did that one end up being named .default? -shrug- I have no clue.

Anyhow, in the ThunderbirdOLD/Profiles folder, I also see ".default" as well as ".default-release" folders too. But in addition, I'm seeing a ".deletedprofile" named folder. So that's where I originally thought my several dozen email folders with several thousand emails and Address Book etc are hiding. But I've copied all the above mentioned folders into the several new Profiles I've created, on a trial and error basis but so far..... no luck. All I get when I open one is the new set up screen to set up a new pop3 account.... which I can do, but that's just starting from scratch without any of my saved data. I'm running out of ideas.

Where am I going wrong?

Depuis la mise en place de cette nouvelle version le 9 aout 2024, je ne peux plus visualiser les pièces jointes d'un message, attachées en .pdf Je suis sur Windows 10 A vous lire,

Requesting for your assistance in the process of downloading the emails from Google workspace to Thunderbird. Per our testing, only those unread messages are being downloaded to Thunderbird but in the actual transfer, it seems all emails are being downloaded. Due to the huge file, at some point, it hangs and we're not sure which emails are not transferred yet.

When forwarding an email, the background colour of the forwarded email is used for the background colour of my explanatory email above the forward so this changes from white to the background colour of the forwarded email. It also changes the indent to jam new text in my email against the page edge. This also happens in troubleshooting mode.

This does not happen with a reply.

I received a message that Thunderbird needed to archive my Emails, there were too many. I did it, now when I go to the older Emails there is nothing there. The Email is blank, some have strange letters and numbers that do not make sense. Could please tell me what happened to the content of the Emails? Thanks

I have numerous mailing lists in my address book. Every time I move an email address from "All Address Books' to a mailing list, it disappears from the mailing list it is in.

For example: 2 Mailing List: Monday Group & Tuesday Group. I want Johndoe@abc.com in both lists. I 'drag & drop' the Johndoe@abc.com to the Monday Group. When I 'drag & drop' it to the Tuesday Group, it disappears from the Monday Group. How I add the an email address to both the Monday Group & the Tuesday Group?

Thanks.

Thunderbird automatically updated to v128 earlier this week after I went to Help - About Thunderbird to check that it had updated to v115.14.

Everything seemed okay immediately after the update, but when I started Thunderbird the next day it was very unresponsive. Checking the Activity Manager showed that Thunderbird was indexing messages, but that this was happening very slowly. I let Thunderbird do its thing that day in the hope that things would settle down.

The next day when I started Thunderbird things were still bad. I tried Rebuilding the Global Database but when I restarted Thunderbird it was just as bad, if not worse.

I then turned off indexing in the Thunderbird settings and Thunderbird is now responsive and back to normal.

Is anyone else seeing anything like this? Any suggestions to fix the problem?

I am a long time Thunderbird user so my profile is very large with a lot of accounts, and has been through a lot of Thunderbird versions, so it is potentially more complicated than normal.

Thunderbird version is currently 128.1.0esr (32-bit).

Thanks

Login to server imap.mail.att.net with my user name failed a couple of weeks ago. I can't receive my emails but I can send them. What can I do?

Please can someone help. We have a chromebook which we use thunderbird to send and receive emails. We are having trouble finding attachments to attach when we send emails. Can someone tell me where to find them. We have them in our files on the chrome book when we type an email and then select attachments we then can't find them. we have tried everything, before we used to save them to linux then this would then show the attachment and we could then attach and send. For some reason this doesn't work anymore. Sure it's a setting issue somewhere, if you could point us in the right direction that would be great. Regards Graeme

I haven't tried to print an email for some time. Tried today and just get an endless "preparing preview" message -see the attached screenshot. I can't find any setting to select a printer etc so I am stuck.

Any help appreciated
