I-Thunderbird Community Forum

Hello. Thuderbird has been acting strangely for a few days, lots of Not Responding messages and then it sorts itself out. But now, when I open an ordinary e-mail, it opens up in a Send window! With the message which you will find in the attached Image. My version = 128.1.1 esr (64 bit) Lenovo Laptop Windows 10 Grateful for any help folks.

Re Thunderbird 128.1.1 esr. All (i.e. current new emails and all historic emails on file) display correctly on screen. However when sent to print (wi-fi connected printer), significant code block is printed (or shown on-screen prior to printing), and I presume this is (incorrect) encryption of the output data? (needless to say, If I access email from the server outside of thunderbird, it prints correctly.) Guidance and solution please. This is opening part of the HTML file (with email sender/receiver changed to x.co.uk for confidentiality).

I've hit the refresh button 1000s of times to get halfway through my emails I'm still a few months from current it downloads 1-3 emails most of the time when hitting refresh all. And most of the help I found for this stuff is very out of date.

Hi there, I have installed Fedora on a desktop and CAElinux on a laptop. In the laptop I have Thunderbird and for a while or subfolders were there. On the desktop I decided to try Kmail and all the subfolders disappear which most likely is because i didn't know much about Kmail. Then I tried using Thunderbird on the desktop with the same settings that where working on the laptop and the subfolders dissapear. Then I turned on the laptop while the desktop was on with Thunderbird on, and when i started Thunderbird on the laptop, the subfolders disappeared. Seems like a domino effect. Now all the email are shown in one big list, but only this years emails are shown. If I open the email on the internet through the email provider all the subfolders are still there. Now I have removed Fedora from the desktop and installed an identical setup as the laptop. I don't dare to start Thunderbird on the desktop until i have recovered the subfoders in the laptop and I know that I am following the right path.

By the way the desktop is dual boot Windows / Linux and if I start Thunderbird under Windows all the subfolders and emails are there. 

Could someone please tell me how to recover the subfolders and emails running Thunderbird under Linux , thanks.

Hello, I am having an issue with adding an email account to Thunderbird (x32). I enter my full name, email address, and app-specific password. Thunderbird recognizes the password, but when I click "Next," I get the following message: "Unable to log in to the server. There may be an error in the configuration, username, or password." I expect a window to appear for additional authorization through mail.ru since I am using OAuth2 authentication, but this window does not pop up. Interestingly, on another computer with the same version, I can add this account without any issues. Additionally, the account is added successfully on the same computer with the newer version, but for some reason, it does not add on the x32 version. Although the account does get added if I use the "normal password" option, I cannot send messages from it. I look forward to your response and assistance. Thank you in advance!

Since the software update on the 23/08/24 I am unable to download emails from the mail server I use. I am not getting any error messages or logs. My thunderbird version is 128.1.1est (32 Bit). Have cleaned out the cache and restarted my system but still unable to download emails.

I'm running TBird 128.1.1esr, but the problem I'm having occurred even before the last update. I'm trying to authenticate an organizational outlook office365 email account via OAuth2. The internal browser fails to load the organizational page and, instead, presents a box for credentials which fails. Is there any way to stop TBird from using its flawed internal browser engine for authentication? Note that setting the preferred browser for links in emails has no effect on TBird's choice to use its internal browser in this case.

Thanks

My colleague, like me has been using Thunderbird for years, thank you. He has just purchased a new printer (Epson 2200) and he can no longer print any emails. Clicking on print brings up the box with 'Save to pdf' the ony option. We have gone into Troubleshooting Information and the printer appears in the print_printer line. We have also tried clearing the 'Clear saved print settings'. After we restart TB, no change, still unable to print with 'save to pdf' the only option. We have removed and reistalled the printer, which will print anything else outside of TB.

TB is up to date with the Nebula version. Windows 11 on new Acer Laptop.

Can you help?

Thank you

Hello

Recently my 'search messages' has become increasingly unreliable. This may have been since Nebula auto-installed, but I can't be certain. The problem has happened occasionally in the past, but never regularly.

I usually search all local folders and often now it doesn't find mails I know exist. It will sometimes find them if I then search a likely folder [and its subfolders]. But even when the result appears to be complete it often continues searching till stopped.

Please can you suggest any reasons and fixes?

Global search still seems to work, but it's hard to be sure, and it's far less user-friendly.

Thank you.

TB 115.14.0, Win 10 22H2, desktop PC, POP3 from gmail...

I select one of my gmail accounts in TB and click Get Messages. It downloads one or a few emails from gmail and then suddenly the Windows hourglass appears and the banner bar at top of screen which says: "Inbox - (email account)@gmail.com - Mozilla Thunderbird" shows (Not Responding). After ~10-15 sec, downloading resumes normally and all messages accessible.

Happens with all 3 of my gmail accounts and all use same settings: Server type: POP Mail Server Server Name: pop.gmail.com port 995 Connectivity Security: SSL/TLS Authentication: OAUTH2

No TB add-ons installed, Windows Scanning is disabled in TB, running Windows Defender. Lots of free disk space, 16 GB RAM...

Tried TB troubleshooting but nothing found. Have run various Windows checks (eg, DISM and sfc) with no errors and problem continues.

Suggestions?

I need help debugging a problem with IMAP folder subscription.

One of my Gmail accounts on Thunderbird 115 keeps re-subscribing to "All Mail". This happens about every second day, and Thunderbird starts re-downloading all messages in the "All Mail" folder until I unsubscribe again.

My two other Gmail accounts for which I unsubscribed to "All Mail" do not have this problem.

I have unsubscribed from the "All Mail" IMAP folder several times (right-click on account > Subscribe ... > uncheck the "All Mail" folder > click OK). I have tried deleting OR not deleting the "All Mail.msf" file (while Thunderbird wasn't running, of course). I have tried refreshing the IMAP folder list (right-click on account > Subscribe ... > click Refresh). I compared the server settings of this account to settings of other accounts which don't automatically resubscribe, and found no difference. I cannot find why this account does this. Unfortunately, it's my most active account.

How can I find what causes this, and fix it?

Thanks,

- Martin

Thunderbird updated last night to 128, and now all I get for messages is a blank screen. Changing the theme doesn't help. Messages are downloading correctly -- I just can't see them. Help!

When i open uppercode in browser Firefox and push the hyperlink, Thunderbird start correctly a new message with content (subject and body). When i receive uppercode as message in Thunderbird and push the hyperlink, Thunderbird open an empty window (and from now all messages are empty). After restart Thunderbird all messages are visible again. Is it a bug?

I am running Thunderbird Desktop Version 128.1.1esr | Released August 21, 2024 with Windows 11 Home 23H2

I'm trying to copy the data from a PC running xubuntu 2022 onto one running Ubuntu 2024.

I'm following the instructions here (https://www.google.com/search?channel=fs&client=ubuntu-sn&q=moving+thunderbird+data+to+a+new+computer) and all seems to work up to and including "On your destination computer" step 7 (Close Thunderbird). Step 7 "From your Thunderbird profile folder in File Browser, go up two levels" - this sends me to "Common". Step 8 Right click inside the folder, then select Paste.

Here's the problem: we're not told what to click on, but I assume it's ".thunderbird", which only contains 11 items although apparently 348 were transferred. Clicking on empty space (I tried that in desperation) doesn't work. I'm probably overlooking something obvious, but I can't see what that might be. Any suggestions gratefully received. In the meantime, I will keep trying and if I somehow get it to work I'll let you folk know.

Running Thunderbird v115.14.0. Edit single event. No [Save] button, only [Send and Close]. This doesn't appear for a recurring event, which displays [Save and Close]. Not good.
