In Outlook you can forward an appointment that is not created by yourself to someone else. In Thunderbird this option seems not available, or is it? Adding attendees to an event that you did not create yourself does not work.

Greetings.

I am using Thunderbird 125.0 (32-bit) on a Windows 10 PC (Windows 10 Home Version 22H2).

Within its Calendar interface, the Find Events function has no option to search all events, as shown in the attached screen shot.

Although I do not use this "Search All" functionality frequently, I do consider it essential.

Unfortunately, I am uncertain when it became unavailable. However, I suspect it was sometime within the past several months.

Thank you in advance for any clarification you may provide pertaining to this issue.

I only wish to sort email only from known vs. unknown domain sources into different folders. Is there a method to filter messages from @AnyDomainName where the domain is NOT found in entries of my address book? Specifically, this method would ignore the Sender Name and only scrutinize the domain.

Hi. My hard drive crashed. I have a new pc and the old drive is readable in a drive enclosure hooked up to new PC via usb. I have done the typical search for the appdata profile file, but I am not sure what I have here. I have attached a screenshot of the old drive and a global search on "Thunderbird". I am not sure where the profile file is residing. Any advice would be welcome. Thanks.

Is there a way to schedule a time (daily or weekly) during which Thunderbird doesn't check for new mail?

I have several mail accounts, some for work, some private. I want Thunderbird checking for new mail on my work accounts during my work hours, and pause checking when I get off work. I don't want Thunderbird to check my private mail while I'm at work (or specifically, up until an hour before the end of my workday).

Eg. I'd like to "tell" Thunderbird to check my work account monday to friday from 8am to 5pm, and my private account every workday from 4pm to 8am and every weekend all day. Ideally, clicking on "get new mail" would only fetch mail for the currently unpaused accounts.

I don't want to have to manually pause checking for messages for each account several times a day.

The "check for new messages every ___ minutes" doesn't help.

Disabling notifications isn't a solution - I need the messages (especially work messages) not to be downloaded from the server (or receive notification that there's mail waiting). I'm looking to "disconnect" from work while keeping up to speed with my private communications.

Hello, I have not really a problem, but I want to know: how is it possible to get spam-emails without showing my email adress? In a normal list I can see the receiver adresses, in these spam emails with cryptical receiver that is not possible; I get even spam emails without any shown receiver Is this possible with BCC-Adresses?

With kind regards Hilhof

I have thunderbird on two computers with to email accounts from aol.com. Recently on one computer the emails from the second account inbox are coming into the inbox of the first account not in the second inbox. How can I fix this ?

On my main Firefox screen, I have a tab to Office 365. When I click on the tab, there is a series of icons on the left side, including Outlook. Until recently, clicking on the Outlook icon would bring up all my Outlook emails with the blue envelope first bobbing up and down with new emails. Now, for no apparent reason, when I click on the Outlook icon, all that happens is that another tab for Outlook shows up near the top of the screen; nothing more. And when I click on the tab, nothing happens. I think somehow some interference is keeping me from seeing my main Outlook screen. What can I do to restore the visibility of my Outlook program?

I've installed TBSync with Thunderbird and my O365 calendar is now syncing.

However, my email subfolders are not fully updating.

I have a # of subfolders I've created in O365 but they aren't appearing in TBSync in order to choose them to sync in Thunderbird. I am getting some (what I would call 'standard') subfolders in TBSync to choose such as Contact, Calendar, Tasks, and some other email accounts I have 'sync'd' into O365, but none of the actual email subfolders for the O365 account itself (i.e. 2024 Financials).

In Thunderbird, the only folders I see to sync (Synchronization & Storage > Advanced)are: Inbox, Draft, Sent, and Trash

What am I doing wrong or missing?

Hi Windows 10 64bits - Thunderbird 115.11.1 (but same happens with Linux Mint 21.3 Cinnamon). It is the 1st time I ask in this forum, so I hope I respect the rules... "Sometimes", in my e-mail "imapmail" sub-folders, "some" files with an added "-1" appear ("draft-1", "sent-1" , ...). They are always newer (modification date) than the file without the "-1". What are they ? Why create a "-1" that consumes space, and not over-write the existing files ? Is there a parameter somewhere in TB to avoid this behaviour (I closed TB, deleted them, but they "sometimes" reappear when I reopen TB ) ? Thanks in advance

Thunderbird has destroyed itself by putting emails into threads starting some time in the last year. How do you stop this? I can't find important emails anymore by the date I sent them (hence becoming a needle in a haystack and actually might not even be visible). Why would anyone wish this on themselves? I even have situations where emails are in the browser, yet don't download into Thunderbird. It's a horrible problem. Hey Thunderbird programmers: If it ain't broke, don't fix it I say.

Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble with my Thunderbird app (version 115.11.1) on macOS. I'm trying to add my Google accounts, but after I attempt to connect them, I receive the following warning message: "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password."

I've checked the configuration multiple times to ensure it's correct. Here are the settings I'm using for Gmail:

Incoming Server (IMAP): Server Name: imap.gmail.com Port: 993 Connection Security: SSL/TLS Authentication Method: OAuth2 Username: [my email address]

Outgoing Server (SMTP): Server Name: smtp.gmail.com Port: 465 Connection Security: SSL/TLS Authentication Method: OAuth2 Username: [my email address]

I've also emptied all saved passwords and allowed cookies from sites without any exceptions. Is the version of Thunderbird I have still incompatible with Gmail? Or is there another issue that I might be missing?

Thanks for your help!

Why do I have both a spam and a junk folder in Thunderbird?

Also, if I have to keep both, is it possible to add a menu command to empty the spam folder, like we have on the junk folder?

First of all, I would like to thank you for allowing me to receive e-mail through your organization for quite a few years now. Up until about 3 days ago, there has never been any problems with it. Why is it, that I have NOT been able to receive my e-mails FOR THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS NOW? The last thing you sent me was a notice that there was some sort of faulty access by someone to my e-mail account and that I would have to change my password. I HAVE MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO DO THIS, BUT EVIDENTLY, MY ATTEMPTS HAVE FAILED. Could you please help me now to accomplish this? Dave Beard(dlbeard@netzero.net) 6-6-24 @ 0842 pdst p.s. or you could call me(please NO texting as I do NOT know how to do this) mu tel. # is (707)644-3849

I have used Thunderbird for many, many years with my @cox.net email addresses with no problems. Recently Cox moved all their email to Yahoo servers.

I have followed all the instructions for accessing email on the Yahoo servers using Thunderbird and have triple checked all the settings, but I still cannot download the emails. I get 2 messages: "Sending of password for user colorcreations@cox.net did not succeed. Mail server pop.mail.yahoo.com responded: [SYS/TEMP] Server error - Please try again later." and: "Login to server pop.mail.yahoo.com with username colorcreations@cox.net failed." asking to retry, enter new password, or cancel.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this problem. I cannot be the only Thunderbird user having this problem.

In the main toolbar there is an odd shaded icon visible (see right side of attached screenshot). This is thunderbird 115 from debian. What is this icon and how to get rid of it?

Thanks in advance.

Greetings, and thanks, again, for all the nifty Mozilla stuff we've been using since the last century (and donating). Once upon a time, there was an add-on that allowed Thunderbird users to export a simple list containing account info including login names and passwords. I think it quit working around version 57 of TB. Since then, it would appear that several users have inquired about how to do that export, and the general answers are either "use the import/export function" or "you can't do that anymore, 'cause we don't want you to," or something equally off putting. As many users note, the Import/Export function is a shotgun approach, and doesn't really address the matter of getting username and password - let alone a simple list thereof. And it's not recommended for profiles over 2GB, which could be the majority of users, these days. And so, on to the questions: Is there now, in 2024, or will there be, a feature or add-on of Mozilla's Thunderbird that will allow a user to export a simple list of usernames and passwords to a readable file, like CSV or TXT or XLSX or ODT? If so, when? If not, why not? Thanks, again (again).
