Thunderbird Community Forum

hey, After the last 2 updates, my quick filtering (ctrl+shift+K) broke. It works very slowly, it freezes the entire program. Is there any way to fix this? I work on Windows 10, regularly updated

My COX email was transferred to Yahoo a few months ago. I followed the procedure outlined by COX and changed over to Thunderbird as I had used before. Everything worked great until the morning of August 18. I cannot receive or send email. I have tried contacting Yahoo who will not help me unless I subscribe to their Premium Technology package. I would really like to talk with someone from Thunderbird but have not found any help. HELP I cannot receive or send email

It seems that Thunderbird has set a checkmark for the new feature Attach VCF to the messages I send. But I think that programs should never change my settings without explicitly telling me. It is now unticked.

I am using Mac OS Ventura 13.6.9. I have been a Thunderbird user for many years. Since this last update, I have started having issues where not all emails are displaying. Seems like most recent emails open correctly, but when I get to emails that are a day or 2 old, I get the the following banner across the top of the screen when the email opens, but can't open the remainder of the email.

I have attached a screenshot to show what I am seeing.

I am using gmail and I can access the emails in gmail, but not in Thunderbird. What is the fix for this?

Thanks

Laura

Thumderbird asked if it could compact folders. Said yes. Now all that shows is the title line for all emails in inbox, but NO content displayed.

Can still see content in emails that are in other folders, seems to be only inbox that will not show content of the emails

New emails arriving will show content as well as some old old emails in inbox

Somehow I was running an unsupported ver 129 on a Win 10 system, not sure how. I was getting a warning messages at startup. I decided to install the latest supported ver 128. I did that over the ver I was running and did not save, export or rename anything. Just one install over the other. I have lost my calendar that I spent months building. Did I lose it? Any possibility it is still around hiding somewhere? Help please, but I am prepared for the worst for being hasty in my decision. Cheers, TR

Since the last update, my filters no longer work. Especially the ones where I want to move attachments to a specific folder. For example, to print them out. The option to "separate attachments" is no longer available

Do you know, why Thunderbird does not display message content or displays strange characters? We only have this problem on one computer. On the other everything is OK.

Each time I open the program it starts downloading all emails from the beginning, it takes hours and days. Even when it's done it starts again from the beginning. I have used this program for many years, but this problem happened in the last few weeks, it's crazy slow

My cox emails opened in Thunderbird until a few days ago. Now a popup window asks for the password for each account. I checked the "security" section, and all of the passwords are saved. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Not sure if this is Thunderbird or Windows 11. I use to be able to go to a web page in a browser and share it via "Send to Mail" Extension. It would open my default email program and a new email with the URL of the page I'm on already in the message area of the new email. It is not working now, likely since I upgraded to Win 11.I've been to the Default Apps settings and set all mail extensions to Thunderbird and the problem remains. It doesn't matter what browser I use, I've tried 3 different ones. My default browser is Firefox and it is up to date. I've tried other Mail To extensions in all the browsers and none work. When I try to do this, I see a message that says opening Default Mail Handler, then nothing happens, nothing opens. All I can do is copy the URL of the page I want to send and paste it into a new email I've opened by manually opening Thunderbird.

Suggestion are appreciated.

I am trying to add an exisiting email address to Thunderbird, and it is not connecting to the server. I copied the Hostname and Port from the information displayed on the 'External Access' page of the original email host. I checked and rechecked the email address and password and it keeps saying it can't connect to the server.

I have tried to change the account settings for my hotmail emails, but for STMP settings Oauth2 was not listed as an available option. Please advise. I am able to access hotmail emails on an Android tablet, but need to reset Thunderbird on my laptop.

Hi,

Suddenly i can´t add a new folder, or supfolder, nothing happens. I can´t even rename a folder. I have the latest uppdate of Thunderbird. Have restartet the laptop as well as Thunderbird several times. This was not any problem a couple of days ago. Have done that several times before

Looking forward to any answer. Bosse Westerlund bosse.westerlund@emrik.se

From today I have been unable to:

Create sub-folders, or delete a folder, or see properties.

If I right click nothing happens, although it allows me to re-name, move, or see settings.??

any ideas please. Tony
