Thunderbird was configured to send & receive via Cox /yahoo mail. Worked until recently but can no longer send or receive.

Please advise. Best Regards, Leigh Wax

When I attempt to move by Mbox folder (31,000 emails) from "Local Folders" to my Gmail inbox, it stops mid-stream at 1,600 emails. Any idea why? And any fixes? Thanks!

I wish to change my email address on thunderbird account, i have been getting a lot of scam emails from unknown sources and will be cancelling [edited] @tpg.com.au email and changing to [edited] @gmx.com and wish to change email address and keep contacts.

Hi there,

Please help, before the new update I used to be able to tag and it would colour code the entire email in the inbox, such as the email and title of who it is from, now it just has a little tiny tag colour on the side instead of highlighting the entire email.

For me I need to be able to see the colour immidiately. I was wondering how I can set that up? I have had no luck in settings. This is urgent for me as it really helps my productvitiy. Not only that unread emails used to be highlighted differently too.

Hello, One of my main contacts (my boss) has all of a sudden had his emails converted to plain text, and all attachments are coming over as .dat files. When I view them in a web browser program (Roundcube), they are fine with formatting, and the attachments are present in correct file formats (JPG, PDF, etc.). In Thunderbird though, no dice. And yes I have checked to see that the message body is set to Original HTML

I am updated to V128.1.1esr

Thoughts???

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Hi,

All inbox emails, except for the most recent ones, now appear to be empty. Can these be safely recovered?

Any advice on how to repair/recover these files would be very welcome!

My cogeco account was shut down that was in thunderbird. i have since re-established my account at cogeco webmail. I would now like to move my contact list to this account. Can you show me how to do that. I am nt to tech savvy. Please bare with me.

So - the "development" staff have taken away the ability to look back at previous events, have taken away the ability to export calendars as ics files, and have locked our data into incomprehensible and undocumented sqlite files. And they very neatly and conveniently leave all the "support" to volunteers, who have suggestions as to what *might* help. Such garbage I've never seen before in my life.

As of 8/27 I have been having a terrible problem when running thunderbird. Thunderbird is very slow to respond to keystrokes, the CPU is running at like 25% and it's windows defender antivirus service that's using up the most CPU.

When I close thunderbird, windows defender stops taking up all the CPU.

Here' what I have installed.

Thunderbird 128.1.1esr (64-bit) 2024-08 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 11 Version 23H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5041587)

It's mostly unusable.

I want to go back to the previous version of thunderbird and see if that fixes it. But how? Is anyone else having this problem?

I have been a Thunderbird user for many years, and the default configuration (View) for the Message List Pane that I've always had is just what I want (Screeenshot 1).

I've had this on Windows (10, 11) on multiple machines, and on macOS. A nice, compact listing (ignore bold; that's just unread messages).

Now I've installed on a new Windows 11 machine, and for this machine I get a very different Message List Pane that I do not like (Screenshot 2). Much more open space, takes up much more room.

All the Account Settings seem to be the same on this machine and the others, including view density, etc.

How can I fix this?

Thanks.

As per this archived question: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1386828 I want to turn off junk filtering completely. Like the poster on the above mentioned question, I have done everything suggested, but Thunderbird still puts messages into the Junk folder. How can I achieve this? Info requested on the above mentioned question: - I am using Thunderbird 115.13.0 (64-bit) on Xubuntu 22.04 - My email service is gandi.net

Hello,

Has anyone an short tutorial how to integrate/install the icloud calendar and contacts into Thunderbird with the latest version? I searched the Internet, but found only older information.

Thanks in advance,

Hello!

Similar to Ludas question of 11/11/23: There was an update about 10 days ago, after which the Quick Filter started working terribly slowly: 1. Even before I have written the entire keyword (including email address), Thunderbird starts "thinking" and crashes (Not Responding). 2. After some time, about 1+ minute, results appear. 3. I went through Safe Mode on Windows and Troubleshoot Mode on Thunderbird - no change.

This account has ~52k letters, IMAP. For accounts with a small number of letters, there is no such delay.

Hi! Using about:config and adding a couple of lines of codes to userchrome css and usercontent css I managed to remove the calendarbutton, the tasks button aswell as the chat button from the spaces toolbar on the left. I really want to to the same with the hide toolbar for tabs menu button furthest down on the page, how do I do that? Another thing I really also would like to do is stop the contacts button from opening a new page, instead I think it should just switch from the email page to the contact one, not open a new. Is there any way of doing this?

Really gratefull if I can get some help with this! Thanks!

I supply software that uses TB to send emails with an attachment (via MAPI - an invoice) I have a number of customers for whom this has stopped working. I tested all of these with the usual fixes. The app has full access to the folder containing the file. The app is set as administrator and is inside the firewall. I have set default mail app to TB. TB is set to check as default on startup. Yet windows keeps saying we need to define a default email client. One customer solved the problem by buying a new PC. I have another customer who has this problem on a new PC. There may be a common denominator in Microsoft Office which on loaded onto the PC's. If that is the problem then that is Microsoft denying access to TB? Has anyone had this problem and can suggest a fix I would be grateful.
