I have an IMAP email account with Virgin Media. I have been backing up my Thunderbird email as follows (not sure where I found this method) WIN + R %appdata%/Thunderbird/ Ctrl A Drag all files to External Hard Drive When I open the Backup file there are two files Open 62hcjzp7.default-release (whatever that all means) there are loads of folders one being MAIL Thus contains all my folders from Local folders For every one there is a File and an MSF File How do/Can I restore these to my current version of Thunderbird? I have tried Import from another Thunderbird installation, Profile folder Open the back upp and Select Profiles Tick Mail messages. It says Compete but never copied anything It does create an empty folder under Local Folders in Thunderbird.
My question is can I restore from this backup? If not, what is the best way to backup and restore Thunderbird? Bill

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?
Why do you send my emails from The Washington Post to Bulk Mail but not the emails from The New York Times? Neither one should go to bulk mail.

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

Hi, After migrating email server, I am having problems synchronizing some IMAP accounts, but Thunderbird is unable to organize the emails and it corrupts the display. In Webmail it is normal and I have no problems accessing it. Coincidence or not, but the emails that are causing this problem are emails that have more than 80Gb. What I did to see if it would improve, was to divide the emails into folders by year, to reduce the size of the email occupancy, but it didn't work. At first, right when I implemented it, they asked to modify this configuration:
Edit → Preferences → Advanced → General → Configuration Editor. Follow the procedure: Locate a key called: mailnews.customDBHeaders Change it to: Received After that restart the application --> Right click on the folder and go to Properties --> Repair Folder
This worked for a few days, but then it started having problems and even repairing the folder, but it didn't help. What they told me was an issue with Thunderbird reading email data on their server, but the problem continued. They kind of "washed" their hands, since it's ok on their server and asked to test it on another email client. Has anyone experienced this problem? Attached is an image of what the email looks like, there are several with the data that I asked to repair, but empty. I've already updated to the latest version of Thunderbird, but it's still like this.

I use Mozilla for incoming mail, but cannot get it to send mail out. I get an error message to check my SMTP settings, which I have done repeatedly, and it doesn't fix the problem. I use those same settings to send my mail OUT with webmail (which is inconvenient to have to switch all the time), so I know the settings are correct. Can you help me understand why my outgoing mail won't work even when I verify that the settings are correct.

I've been a Thunderbird user for years. I have no idea what they changed recently, but it's incredibly, incredibly SLOW, almost to the point of unusability. Even something as simple as deleting emails.
I usually do these in chunks -- select multiples and delete. We're not talking about hundreds of emails at at time here, just maybe 5-15. Select them all, hit delete, and it should take just a couple of seconds to delete the messages. It did, in the past. But lately, it's taking so long that I could leave and make a sandwich, and when I come back, maybe it will be done. Maybe it will still be working, though, or maybe it will have locked up because it was taking so long.
It's pretty difficult to get work done at this rate.

I have 10 email accounts in my Thunderbird 115.12.2 (64-bit) and I am using Microsoft Windows 10 Pro and all my sent, draft, archives and templates are going into a different folder. I want them to go into the folder from which the email was sent but they are all going into the email tinakeeling@att.net.
I have changed it to reflect the correct folder but then a few days later and every time I restart Thunderbird the program changes the folders back to tinakeeling@att.net
I have even unchecked the box "place a copy in" and when Thunderbird is restarted it reverts back.
What can I do to fix this issue?

If my email provider's server was originally POP but my provider's moving to IMAP there's a good chance they'll temporarily support both versions.
And I've discovered that I can set up a 2nd email account in Thunderbird and link it to their IMAP server. Both email accounts will then download the same emails.
But of course my POP account (locally) will have a whole history of emails whereas the new IMAP account won't.
So rather can creating that 2nd email account, is it possible to set up (i.e. convert) the existing account so that it'll access the IMAP server, rather than the old POP one? I tried opening its Server Settings in Thunderbird and simply changing the Server Name and Port but that doesn't work. The Server Type remains as POP and even the Advanced settings don't offer any clue :-(

A week ago my whole computer went kaput. I pay for cloud back-up so everything except Thunderbird was fully restored. I know noting about computers. My friend, an IT pro who built and sold me this machine, has worked hard without success. This is my home desktop machine running Windows 10. I can access incoming mail through AT&T Yahoo Mail. And today some kind AT&T person spent two hours with me on the phone. Now I have a newly assigned security code and, to my surprise, a functioning Thunderbird. However, my hundreds of addresses have not reappeared nor have the thousands of saved emails in my various local folders. I believe what I have now is a newer version of Thunderbird. Much of it looks different. And weirdly there was a button for "old email" that I hit and started to receive things sent to me as far back as 2007. I think it stopped at some capacity limit. I am sure most of what came through I don't want but I certainly don't want to permanently delete things I may have moved to another folder. The AT&T person got me to some repair page with step-by-step instructions for hooking up with Thunderbird but he got stymied at some point. I am at a loss here and would appreciate help. Thank you for your time and attention.

Hi, I'd like to create a filter that uses a list of names or addresses to send emails to folders. So instead of "if sender contains" Political candidate #1 OR Political candidate #2 and on and on I'd like to be able to use a list of some format that contains the same information.
Is that possible?
