I keep getting a message to enter a new password and yet the password matches the one in the Settings password manager. I also recently transferred Thunderbird to a new computer and though I exported all my accounts and messages, there are now two sections with the same email, one that ends in August 2024 and the other with current messages. How do I merge these?

Hi. I have removed the eng-US dictionary via settings, which informs me my only dictionaries are UK English and Welsh as I live in Wales and use the eng-UK as default. However, the email spell check keeps defaulting to US. How do I stop this from happening as it is very annoying and the dictionary needs to be reset to UK every use.

NYU has used gmail combined with shibboleth MFA for over a decade. When there's a password change, TB opens a window using it's own browser (n.b.: this is different than the browser used when clicking on a link) and you go from there. This morning I did my yearly password change and now, after the initial accounts.goole window, when I get redirected to the shibboleth window, I get a 403 error. I also get a warning about invalid certificate. I tried pressing the "Get Certificate" button, but nothing happens.

A few thing to note: - I run TB (128.5.2) on a Mac Sequoia - no issues when logging into NYU using Firefox or Chrome or Safari. - I cleared the TB cache and cookies. - I created a new TB profile and tried starting from scratch. - I restarted TB with add-ons disabled

Nothing seems to solve the problem. Unfortunately NYU's IT can provide only limited help with 3rd party apps like TB.

I really depend on using TB, been using since the first release and have add-ons that I use on a regular basis.

Thanks,

All the emails (about 100) suddenly disappeared from one of my folders. They are there when I search, but the program won't open them. In the explorer, in the profile folder, both the 'cur' and 'tmp' folders are empty. I didn't delete them, nor were they moved to another folder. I tried the 'repair folder' method, but it didn't help. How can I somehow bring them back?

I have pop accounts set up for my business. Ever since the last Thunderbird upgrade, I've been seeing messages download and then immediately disappear. Some of these have been critical things that I needed to get, and I've had to ask the sender to repeatedly re-send them before they stopped disappearing as soon as they came in. They have been from a wide variety of sources, including the US government, so it's not a problem with the sender. I've used Thunderbird for all the years that it's been available, without any problems ever, until this began. Please fix it, whatever it is!

On Android phone, latest K-9, certain legitimate email addresses are automatically changed to '+1' like a phone number. Tried disabling predictive text and autocorrect - doesn't help. e.g. email pastelpawsxxxxx@gmail.com. Phone is Samsung S24, latest update too. This behavior has been evident for some time.

Thoughts?

I had had issues with gloda (search) for a long while. I have tried deleting the sqlite file to force a reindex as per the guidance. I am watching Activity Monitor in TB after reopening, to monitor the reindex process. But it hangs every time. it goes through sent items and seems to get stuck at one point every time. See image below, it's been sat like that for an hour or more now. Any ideas? thanks (Image uploader doesn't seem to be working on this board, so here's the screenshot: https://ibb.co/8MjfKRW)

Search through all subfolders of main 'Local Folders' fails

Ever since I updated to Thunderbird ver 128.4.2 esr, I can no longer do a global search by electing to search "Local Folders" and include all subfolders in the search. For example, as a test case, if I search for all messages dated after 1/1/2024, no messages in my "Inbox" folder are listed. It is true that of the 20 or so subfolders of "Local Folders", there is one subfolder named "Misc". Messages in "Misc" and its subfolders that meet the 1/1/2024 test criterion are found and listed, but other subfolders of "Local Folders" are ignored. Instead, the search engine remains hung in a "....Searching" state until I manually close the search.

But also ... if I choose to explicitly name any one of the subfolders of "Local Folders" as the root folder of a search (and "include all subfolders" contained in that root, the test case above finds all messages in the named subfolder and it's subordinate subfolders.

Bottom line ... I have a lot of subfolders and sometimes I've forgotten where I have stored a particular message. In a pile of messages decades deep, this problem has become a major disability. Someone please help!

Some facts that might be important.

I had hoped the problem might go away with subsequent Thunderbird updates. I've updated my mac to TBird 128.5.2esr now: but I still have the problem

I'm still running the latest version of Big_Sur on my mac. (I don't have this problem on a laptop that's running a later version of MacOS)

I have a lot of filters that automatically move incoming messages to my myriad of subfolders. The filter engine appears to continue to work correctly implying that, the filter engine knows how to find all of the subfolders of "Local Folders" even though the search engine doesn't.

Hi, The drop down for open Email messages that is displayed horizontally across the top of the screen just contains blank boxes. The boxes used to display the related open email message when you click on it. Now the empty box just displays a blank page. Any new messages I open today, display correctly in a new box and open up correctly when I click on the box. All previous open messages before today appear to have lost their link. Is there any possibility of restoring the link to older messages? Thanks for any help you can provide!

FYI - I have not made any software or hardware changes in the past 6 months.

Up until today Thunderbird (v. 102.15.1) was working well. Today I found it was not downloading messages from my email server (Zoho). I tried many things to fix it, to no avail. Finally I restored everything from a full backup I had made a day previous when Thunderbird was working well. Thunderbird *still* doesn't work. Even test messages I send to myself are not downloaded.

When I click the button "Get Messages" normally it checks for and downloads all new messages. Now clicking it does nothing. If instead I click the down-arrow next to the button and choose "Get all new messages" it does check for new messages and claims to be downloading them, but they never appear in my mailbox.

I have Thunderbird (admittedly, a later version) installed on another computer and that continues to work fine, so the problem doesn't appear to be caused by the server.

What could be causing this behavior?

I have a new Thunderbird installation - IMAP account. I cannot see invite emails (containing .ics) in my inbox. I can see them on another Thunderbird installation, I can see them on outlook, I can see them when I go to full search, but they don't show in the inbox.

When received, I hear the audio alert - but the number of new emails messages does not increase, nor does it display.

(It's not in junk, I haven't deleted it - the main search shows it's in the inbox folder, but it's not visible on the inbox tab).
