Thunderbird Support Forum

Hi,

I have this setting enabled: Check for updates, but let me choose whether to install them

Yet twice in the last couple weeks, Thunderbird has updated without asking.

I do not run any updater software, TB must be doing this itself.

What settings in v115 are required in the config editor to ensure that updates are not installed without user intervention?

Thanks Russell

I would like to not be a polygamist with my phone/computer. I would like to have Thunderbird Supernova only on my android BLU G91 phone and not K9mail also. I would like to start and stay with supernova. on my google store app, it refuses to allow me to see the thunderbird supernova app to install and only offers me k-9 mail. How do i avoid K-9Mail and later having to switch to Supernova, if i can start at the beginning with Supernova? Thank you.....b³

Hello, my Cox email account was migrated to Yahoo mail. I can receive emails but now I can't send emails from Thunderbird. I've triple checked server settings. Please help. Thanks-Vince

This is the message I get and it does this with all email addresses.

Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: Request failed; Mailbox unavailable. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again.

I am trying to transfer my email from one old PC using windows Live Mail (2012) to a laptop with Thunderbird to process the emails. The email server is with a company called Plusnet, and they can send me their own emails, which are received by Thunderbird on my Laptop. All my other emails continue to be sent to the Windows Live Mail on the old PC. Plusnet advise me that the problem is with Windows Live Mail. Any ideas how to resolve the problem? David Owen

After Thunderbird asked me to download a new version & I donated money, all my subfolders to the left have disappeared. ALL my information stored/ emails placed in the subfolders are gone. I have sent several requests asking for HELP. This has been so frustrating I do not want to recommend anyone to use Thunderbird. This has nev er happened to me before and I cannot seem to receive an easy solution a t my end. All folders & emails dumbed into folders are gone???? I need HELP Please.....

I have have been unemployed at the time but still donated $$ to support as often as I can and this has happened which has been a nightmare.

I have downloaded my Emil to my laptop using thunderbird and then I try to change the name of storage folder to D:\gmail and after that I could not find my previously downloaded email.I need to jknow how I can file my previous downloaded folder.

I have been stuggling to transfer my emails from a windows PC using Windows live Mail, to a laptop using Thunderbird. I have just spoken to my email provider (Plusnet) and they have sent a test email which is received by Thunderbird. But all my emails keep arriving on the old machine. Any suggestions which might help me? David Owen

Install of Thunderbird accepted my donation but does not complete the install. It just returned to the donate screen again. If I try to return to the install exe it wont pass the donation screen. I like Thunderbird but not enough to pay twice. How do I get the install to complete? Appreciate any ideas. Thanks

I recently lived thru the Cox-Yahoo conversion. Yahoo webmail has a folder called SPAM..where all the what I call JUNK goes to but in TB but it never gets into the TB JUNK folder..I can only see it on webmail Yahoo..How do I point the TB JUNK to link with this SPAM Yahoo folder please?

I installed the Thunderbird software on (2) devices to replace the Windows Mail product. On the first device (Windows 11 laptop) I was able to add all (3) personal email accounts needed (1 Spectrum and 2 Gmail). On the second computer (Windows 11 MS Surface) i was only able to install (1) Gmail account and the Spectrum account. The second Gmail account gives an error when it tries to verify the account with Google giving the error as follows.

400 that is an error. The server cannot process the request because it's malformed. It should not be retried. That's all we know.

Since the settings on both computers are the same for the account and both Gmail accounts work on one computer this doesn't make sense to me. Any suggestions would be helpful.

I'm a long-term Outlook user looking to move from Outlook 2013 (now unsupported by MS) to Thunderbird. I've looked at all Mozilla documentation, as well as Google Search and can't seem to find a full understanding of the migration process. I have tried to manually do so using the Tools>Import in Thunderbird, but I continually get an error message that "the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request". (Yes, Outlook is my default mail client).

Also, I'm now seeing the following on my Thunderbird home page: Secure connection failed live.mozillamessaging.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown.

Can anyone help an Outlook refugee? Thanks in advance.

I had to purchase a new computer and the set-up did not transfer my account of mozilla thunderbird files and e-mails. I downloaded the mz app and followed the instructions to Set Up Your Email Address and the Configuration was found in Mozilla ISP database. So when I selected Done, the prompt read: "Could not get OAuth2 details for hostname=imap.comcast.net." What do I need to do to retrieve my files and e-mails in the mozilla thunderbird website and transfer them to my new computer? Thanks
