Please help to solve this problem

Hello, we are running Thunderbird 128.1.0osr (32-bit) released on 8/6/24. Ever since the upgrade my husband's email has not worked correctly.

Around that same time, he received a pop up within the Thunderbird app asking for donations from Thunderbird. The popup would not go away and my husband lost a ton of his email.

Ever since these two events his Thunderbird email won't work correctly.

Messages since 8/4/24 at 6:32 am DO work correctly. Emails prior to 5/6/23 also work correctly. Any message in the time period from 5/6/23 at 11:26 am to 8/4/24 does NOT work correctly.

We are having the same trouble with the sent items folder.

We use a third party email that we import into Thunderbird and have used the third party email and Thunderbird since at least 2020 and never had this problem.

We can see all the message headers in our email list, but when we click on the email, nothing shows up. It will briefly say "message loading" at the bottom corner, but the email is totally blank. Furthermore, the message that peeks out at the bottom is the last email that we clicked on from the section of emails that does work. It is not changing to the email we are actually clicking on.

For example: lets say we have an email with message header "thank you for your order" received on 8/15. We click into that and it pulls up fine.

Then we go into older email from 7/31. The message header is "hurry sale ends today". If we click on that, it will say "message loading" at the bottom corner. However, the message preview at the bottom of the screen still displays the from/to/subject from the previous email we viewed from 8/15 "thank you for your order" (the message from 8/15 shows as blank though).

Even if we double click the message from 7/31 that we are trying to view, it just pulls up a blank screen. The bar at the top will briefly display the correct message title that we are trying to open, then it just blanks out.

Steps we have taken:

1. In Account Settings/Privacy I clicked to "allow remote content". This made an improvement as prior to this we were having the same problem even with recent messages. We could see one or two messages that had just arrived, then the third message we couldn't see. We have messages set to delete on the server after so many days. So I think it was able to recover the message that were still on the remove 3rd party server.

2. We moved a lot of the emails into archive folders as I thought the inbox may be too large. That didn't make any improvement.

Thanks for any help you can provide. My husband has a lot of really important information in his emails that he needs.

I have about a dozen accounts set up on my laptop. I want to have the same accounts on this desktop system. I am loathe to do so by using the standard Tools > Account Setup process because every time I have done so in the past several months, I've had validation problems with the email servers at the ISPs. I've had to change every password to create baseline values before TB could add them even though I had valid passwords copied from a password vault program.

Is there a way to just copy or transfer the data from the laptop to this desktop? I have a couple of the accounts set up here but would like to bring the others over without having to go through the setup steps.

I migrated to a new computer with Windows 11 and to the latest TB nebula. I copied the profile folders to the new system and it imported 20 years of email correctly. BUT every connections seems to hang and eventually times out. It almost looks like TB blocked by a firewall. Even checking for updates eventually times out. HOWEVER everything works fine in troubleshooting mode.

I have no add-ons installed. I have no VPNs or additional firewalls. Disabling Windows firewall entirely doesn't change anything. I tried "Make the changes and restart" with no success. I added thunderbird.exe to the exceptions to the windows firewall and even added a rule. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling.

Is there any setting related to the connection that would be different in troubleshoot mode? Apparently nobody has ever experienced this problem, I feel like I'm going insane.

pedro@highway1.com.au was with zetta net till last year when they canceled my account out of the blue , no warning , WAS PAIDED UP ? AS WELL ? See zetta has changed its name now to zettagrid ? Now thunder demands a new pass word to load new e-mails , the old pass word does not work any more ? Now have my internet with Optus as zetta would not talk to me from October 2023

p s love thunder bird it has been great .

I have multiple email accounts configured in Thunderbird, all of them are IMAP and hosted through Google/gmail.

Occasionally emails that I delete or move to folders will return to my inbox. This happens very irregularly. Sometimes it happens daily, sometimes it can go many days without an occurrence.

If emails are sorted within the gmail browser interface, the problem never happens.

I've tried a complete deletion of Thunderbird and all app data, and resetting all email accounts but the problem persists.

Thanks in advance!

I am getting numerous emails that I can't seem to filter. they end in .best I set up a filter the same way I did for .be etc. They slip right through. Any ideas?

Xpunge no longer works since the Thunderbird update; the new one won't be ready until sometime in Sept. (hopefully). I installed the only other add-on that looks as though it should be able to get rid of what's in my junk mail folders. However, I can find no information on it.

It says it's in its own folder, but I can't find it anywhere. It doesn't seem to work automatically and I can't seem to refuse permission for it to read and move my messages (or any other permissions). Does anyone know anything about this? With Xpunge I clicked on it and all of the messages in my junk and/or trash folders (my choice) were deleted; that's what I'm looking for.

1. Where can I find it? It isn't on the toolbar. 2. Can I expect it to automatically move messages to my junk mail folder -- messages that I don't want junked? 3. Will it delete all of the mail in the junk folders of all of my accounts or just move mail to the junk folders? I'm computer-based.

Hi friends,

I already searched for this topic and found that there should exist a file named "msgFilterRules.dat" - but there isn't such file nowhere on the whole drive.

Looks like the message filter rules are actually stored in a file with another name...

But what's that name?

Best regards rumbero

I get the green light for creating an account... but it goes yellow tag when I click Done. Will you help, please. I am able to log into my account online with the same PW I have to use in setting up the Thunderbird account. Thanks from a donation customer. //... Joe

Running Thunderbird 128.0.1esr

I use "Manage Message Filters" on Inbox, with "Getting new Mail" and "Manually Run" options checked.

One of the filters was to move anything with 'From' 'Contains' 'Amazon.com' or 'Audible.com' to a special folder. About 1 or 2 months ago, this quit working. Other filters continue to work. (I have 9 filters groups). Some using 'from contains' others using different criteria.

Another filter I have is 'From' Contains 'facebook.com' which worked fine, moving to a social media folder. it worked fine until I added 'linkedin.com'. Now that filter fails for both facebook.com and the new linkedin.com.

I redid the Amazon filter and it still fails.

The rest of my filters are still working as designed.

Any idea on what's going on here, or what I can do?

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

Yahoo Acnt. #1 messages being duplicated in Yahoo Acnt. #2 in Thunderbird ONLY

I have tested, and tested and tested. Checked settings EVERYWHERE. Delete and removed, reinstalled, etc. etc. etc.

Additionally, Thunderbird will NOT retrieve inbox messages from YAHOO for account #2

I have DETAILED (including screen captures) the conditions in a document and made it available here.

NEED SOMEONE ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT TO SOLVE THIS ONE !

Debugging message filters and want to see the log. From message filters window I click box "Filter Log". It brings up the small config box of which a pic is attached. I can't find anyway to actually see or access the log. It must be hiding here somewhere ? ?

I have tried to clear the log so it is small in case it is large and takes long to load as I've seen elsewhere. No change.

I try to look this the "Activity Manage" which has some log like error messages but it is a mess of unordered seemingly random successes and some failures. This is another topic.

So, any guidance on how to use the filter log would be greatly appreciated.

I follow 9 different Google calendars. 7 are linked to my personal Gmail account and 2 to a work account.

Today the 7 linked to my account were unlinked.

My Gmail password probably has changed, but TB reads emails from the account. I have tried:

• Bulleted list itemClicking Enable next to the account.
• Bulleted list itemClicking the three dots to the right of Enable, selecting Properties, and checking the Enable box.
• Bulleted list itemTrying to create a new calendar in the account, hoping it would see all the old ones.

None of these worked. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I would like to connect to Suddenlink.net via Optimum.net. It does show up on Optimum.net account on web page. I have a screen shot of the constant results of my days of efforts. I have two other connections via gmail.com and it works fine. I have people who are still using Suddenlink emails to me and I would like to see them on Thunderbird. Thanks for the fine software and any help with this. //... Joe
