I have ver 128.0.1 and I cannot get it to show the details of an incoming email for a few seconds. Where will I find the setting for this? I found such a setting, set it for 4 seconds and nothig is shown when an email arrives.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

At least on Linux, all versions of Thunderbird with Supernova UI are unusable for emails which requires a hardware key to login. The "insert key / input PIN" never shows up in those versions. The bug presents on flatpak distributions and latest daily version (130) as well. The latest stable version that's working with hardware keys is 102, but it has some serious performance issues with large amount of calendar entries.

I appear to have somehow added a picture to my profile in Thunderbird. The picture isn't me, it's one of my friends. I have no idea how I did this and I can't find any information about how to add or remove profile pictures. Please can someone point me in the direction of a tutorial or instruction post.

Thank you.

Sehr geehrtes Support-Team,

ich habe ein dringendes Problem mit meinem E-Mail-Konto, das ich über Thunderbird verwalte. Leider kann ich mich seit kurzem nicht mehr anmelden, was besonders problematisch ist, da ich dieses Konto für berufliche Zwecke nutze.

Folgende Probleme sind aufgetreten:

Anmeldung fehlgeschlagen: Bei dem Versuch, mich anzumelden, erhalte ich die Nachricht, dass mein Passwort falsch ist. Leider erinnere ich mich nicht an mein aktuelles Passwort und konnte es auch nicht zurücksetzen.

Kontoerkennung: Obwohl mein Benutzername korrekt erkannt wird, führt dies nicht zur Lösung des Problems, da die Passworteingabe weiterhin scheitert.

Ich habe bereits folgende Schritte unternommen, um das Problem zu beheben:

Überprüfung der Internetverbindung Überprüfung der Kontoeinstellungen in Thunderbird Versuch, das Passwort zurückzusetzen Leider waren diese Maßnahmen nicht erfolgreich. Da ich dringend Zugriff auf mein E-Mail-Konto benötige, wäre ich Ihnen sehr dankbar, wenn Sie mir schnellstmöglich helfen könnten, das Problem zu lösen.

Bitte lassen Sie mich wissen, welche Informationen Sie von mir benötigen oder welche weiteren Schritte ich unternehmen kann.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Alaa Nasser

About Migration of Thunderbird to a new iMac, Used Apple Migration Assistant to transfer files to new iMac. Firefox only worked after required install of Rosetta. However Thunderbird did not. Message: "Thunderbird damaged. Can't be opened, move to Trash." Is there still a way to retrieve all T-bird on old iMac to new iMac?

Hello, I'm Christian. I am still facing issues changing my Thunderbird into an IMAP account, for following reasons: -exporting the existing is OK -creating the IMAP account is OK -Reimporting the messages from previous POP3 account difficult, because: -when using the import fonction, a local folder is being created with a directory three that looks liked the previous Dir structure I had previously. But transfering the folder and files proves difficult, the copy/paste function does not work properly so I can't just click and drag. My thunderbird folder is approx. 20g, could that be the reason? Furthermore, I cannot delete the previous POP3 account or the local folders. Any idea why? I actually do have a thunderbird account (POP3) comprises of 4 differents email addresses, I can delete 3, but not the last one as it appears to be the default one. Thanks a lot for your support, much appreciated. Christian

Hello all,

I just installed Thunderbird on a new computer today and migrated an account from an old computer. I'm looking at previous posts for migration issues.

The pressing issue right now is the color scheme in both Thunderbird AND Windows.

I installed Thunderbird (Version 102.15.1 32-bit because that's what I had on my old computer) and it had its standard colors. I was personalizing the appearance in the settings. I suddenly -- not when I was doing any adjustments to colors, fonts, anything at all -- got the most awful shades of pink and peach, and get this -- not only in Thunderbird, but in Windows! (Windows 10 Pro) I had changed absolutely nothing in my Windows display. I simply set up Thunderbird, moved to close it and did close it, and everything on my computer changed. The Windows taskbar is still my normal color, but buttons within Windows, borders and buttons on ALL of my apps such as my browser (Iron Browser), you name it ...... something happened within Thunderbird and to my entire computer. I can't get rid of it by changing the customize appearance in Windows.

I didn't do anything! Except maybe I did? I wasn't doing anything at the time within my Thunderbird settings when it happened -- I know that -- but it did happen while I was looking at Thunderbird's settings and when I closed it. Does anybody have any idea as to what I may have inadvertently done, and how to undo it?

Thank you SO much.

Support mad adjustments to my email yesterday and told me it would take 24 hours to 'Promulgate' through the various sites. This fix has done nothing. I still am not getting my email

In the course of my work I was scrolling back and forth through the emails in my inbox when I suddenly could not scroll any later than 12 days before the present date. I can scroll through emails previous to that normally. I then sent a test email to this account from a different account and it was received and displayed correct. So I am unable to access any emails between 12 days ago and now, like something took a bite out of my emails.

I have used Thunderbird for quite a while so finally sent a donation. Withing a few months, my emails won't send. Sometimes they won't receive either. I went to Comcast and asked for help and they gave me a new password for one email address and it worked for a few days now NOTHING. I'm so frustrated! I don't believe it has anything to do with Thunderbird but since Comcast is no help, I'm desperate. I have 4 email addresses and each is important to have access to. Please help me.

After recently downloading the Thunderbird update on a PC, a problem developed when trying to move email messages to folders and subfolders. The message sometimes disappears and is lost after moving it to a folder (using the menu tool).

After updating to Version 128, I see a headache-inducing red when I single click on an email. There is a lighter pink on mouseover.

When clicking 'Inbox' in the menu, that is a dark gray, as is the active email.

Is there a place to adjust this color?

Thanks
