Thunderbird is set to flag a message as unread only after 10 sec of reading. Sometimes I delete a message before this time and Thunderbird still notify me that there are unread message also if the inbox has not unread message. The issue will persist if I don't restart Thunderbird or if I don't find that deleted message and set it to read.
Only Thunderbird gives this issue, other email client don't notify me about unread message if i delete a message but still be flagged as unread.
Any solution to have unread notification only for inbox? Thanks.

Hi, I've used Thunderbird on Linux for about 20 years and it has worked flawlessly connecting to my ISP mail for both sending and receiving messages. About 2 weeks ago I tried to send a mail and got an internal error back from the ISP SMTP server that the message was being blocked as possible spam. POP continued to work fine.
I tried renaming my local .thunderbird directory and downloading the latest version of Thunderbird to try a fresh install. It behaved exactly the same way.
The frustrating thing is that KMail, an alternate Linux mailer works fine with the exact settings that fail on Thunderbird. I can also send mail from my phone when connected to the same ISP wifi as the Linux machine.
I am not sending out messages to large groups of recipients. It will fail (but work in Kmail and K9Mail on Android) with a trivial test message to myself.
Any ideas how I can troubleshoot this? I like Thunderbird but can't use it if I can never send mail.
Thanks!

Are there no Add-ons/Extensions any more (115 and beyond) that support any kind of sync with Google/Yahoo/Outlook contacts? Not sure MS Outlook even supports such a thing any more, some kind of vulns in the CardDAV protocol (worked great in 2005-10 era)?
Also, like to report major bugs in the CSV import mechanism, the VCF import got everything right, but the CSV import interface is beyond kludgey; essentially put the columns in the wrong places, and the "dropdowns" had only one value, that the import routine had decided I was constrained to. I would suggest you drop it from the product unless it can be made a bit more "professional" than a junior school computer science project.

I would like to see the sender's email address in lieu of a name.
The inbox SELECT COLUMNS TO DISPLAY does not offer an option to DISPLAY THE SENDER’S EMAIL ADDRESS.
Both From and Correspondents display the same names. Perhaps replacing one of those with the SENDER’S EMAIL ADDRESS?

Hi all,
I received an email from my outlook.com.au address yesterday with an important image attachement. However, I did not notice the yellow bar with option to enable remote content.
This particular email was replied to by other recipients and therefore it was threaded.
Somehow I have lost most of the thread after trying to see where the attachments were.
The email is still there on other clients as well as the MS web interface. I can see the full thread in another tab in conversation view.
If I do a search for it in my inbox via the search function, it is there.
How do I view this email back in my inbox?
Regards,
Steve

The cursor in Thunderbird is difficult to see when composing emails. My Windows settings have not been customized. All the online articles suggest changing Windows cursor or mouse settings, and although that does change things for Windows, it does not affect the cursor size or color in Thunderbird. Are there any ways to make the cursor darker so it's easier to see?

I have Thunderbird version 45.8.0 on a 2009 iMac with OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63). The computer is so old that I can't upgrade it further.
I have a bunch of really sentimental emails that I need to get off that computer before it crashes for good and onto a safe external hard drive or two. I saved one to a local folder and copied it to the external HD, and that worked, but I want to save it as a document instead of an email. Is that possible? I guess that's not really a Thunderbird question now that I think about it, but I could use some suggestions if any of you have any ideas and a little time.
Thanks very much for your help.

Hello,
First, apologies if this has already been asked; there doesn't appear to be a way to sort previous forum postings by date, and all similar questions seem to be dated 2022.
Here's my problem:
As of TB's most recent update, all of my messages are coming in as plaintext. They used to come in as HTML with external content (images, pixels, etc.) blocked, and a little warning bar gave me the option to download content if I trusted the sender. That little bar is gone, and now I can't figure out how to see images in the marketing emails that I actually want to see. I don't want to enable remote content for ALL senders, and setting up exceptions hasn't fixed the problem.
Can someone please tell me how to get this fixed?
Thank you!

Hello, I am desperate. After an update today, my profile is gone. It would be no problem to set up the mails again. But I had saved a lot of mails in local folders for years and I'm afraid that I won't be able to access them if I set everything up again. Unfortunately, I can't do anything with the help articles because they are too technical. I think I have at least found the location of the locally stored mails. How should I proceed so that I can access them again? Thank you so much in advance, Klaudia

Presently I have minimize Thunderbird to tray icon set, this is fine. But I want Thunderbird to minimize to tray icon when I click the 'X' instead of closing out altogether. Since there's no setting for this, is there some kind of secret sauce like an add-on or a manual mod of the registry to enable this?
Many thanks.

For years I have used the extension 'Calendar Tweaks' because it colorizes the entire event in the calendar. This extension is no longer compatible with versions of Thunderbird after 74 so I have stop updation after Version 69. However in resolving problems with authorization I needed to update to the current Version of Thunderbird so my events in the calendar now just show the category color at the edge of the box instead of the entire box. Is there a way in Thunderbird to colorize the entire event box or another extension that does this.
