As an enthusiastic Thunderbird user, I recently installed Thunderbird for Android and set it up using a QR code. Fantastic!

I always sign my outgoing emails with an OpenPGP certificate. I have integrated this on my smartphone using OpenKeychain. The question now is: how do I sign the outgoing emails?

The key is set up correctly with OpenKeyChain, the menu item ‘Activate encryption’ (German: ‘Verschlüsselung aktivieren’) is displayed, but not the menu item ‘Activate PGP-only signing’ (German: PGP-nur-Signieren aktivieren).

Hallo liebes Thunderbird-Team,

besteht die Möglichkeit, Ordner direkt in Thunderbird-Mobile anzulegen oder geht dies nur über den PC mit anschließender Synchronisation?

Vielen herzlichen Dank LG Jürgen

Hello, I have authorised notifications in the Thunderbird application for Android, but I don't receive any when I receive emails. For your information, in Account Settings > Notifications, I checked the first box "Notifications of new emails" and the fifth box "Synchronisation notifications". What's more, in the "Notification categories" section (further down), in the screen that opens before "Emails", the "Alert" and "Application icon badges" boxes are ticked, and there's a sound associated with the "Sound" heading. With all this, I don't get any notification of incoming emails. Thank you for your help, Kind regards, Renaud *Email removed to protect privacy*

In attempting to compose an email, TB does not recognize any contacts when I start typing the first few letters of their email address nor when I try typing their name as it appears in phone contacts. First installed TB on this new phone just a couple days ago, and my recollection is it was working fine. But then I went ahead with the Android 14 update, and after that is when TB seemingly forgot all contacts/email addresses. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling TB, but that made no difference.

When will composing/writing, sending and receiving HTML emails be available, possible in Thunderbird for Android? I know this HTML functionality is not available in K-9 email on Android, but it is available in Thunderbird, Thunderbird Desktop on all other platforms like Windows, Linux and MacOS except Android.

Hi. I use Thunderbird for Android and I am not.able to send email abroad. When I use email with CZ there is no problem, hit with other EU/COM/PL....all emails return. Settings are correct, I checked woth my IT...I do not know what to do. Kind regarts Barbara

I don't know if I just have something configured wrong or if this is a bug.

In case it is relevant, I originally came from the K-9 app and imported my settings to the new Thunderbird app. K-9 is now uninstalled.

I have more than one account, and each inbox is set to show in Unified Inbox.

When I get any new email for any account, I actually get 2 of the exact same notification for each email. There isn't actually 2 emails with the same sender and subject line, when tapping on either of the notifications the app opens and there is just the one email.

I thought maybe Unified Inbox had its own notification setting which might explain why I was getting notified twice, but if there is I cannot find it.

I could always try removing all the accounts and re-adding them, but since I have quite a few I would like to avoid that if I can (and why I chose importing from K-9 rather than manually adding and configuring each one).

Thanks for any assistance.

Hi.

I have installed and set up the new app via the playstore. Installed on a Pixel 8a. I have noticed the following points. Please give me some feedback on where and how I have to change the settings or whether these points can be changed at all.

1. I have three mailboxes in the app. If you swipe to the right, you can see the overview of the mail accounts with a corresponding abbreviation of 2 letters. All three accounts are named “WE”. It is possible to change that ?

2. I have set the frequency of mail retrieval to 15min. Can I set it somewhere so that I immediately receive a notification when mail arrives (background sync allways) ?

3. The retrieval of mails and their notifications do not work reliably. I only see new mails or pushups when I switch from mobile network to wifi (or vice versa) or when I manually trigger the update in the app. How can this be optimized?

Thx.

What I delete an email message on my phone, it disappears in my app. But when I check on my computer and in my old email app, the deleted message is still there.

I've checked in multiple email accounts and multiple messages.

Thanks Jim King

I was very excited to hear about Thunderbird for Android. I have been using K-9 for years. My account is a POP account. I have only 3 gripes with K-9 that I hope are addressed in Thunderbird for Android.

1) K-9 does not allow me to create local subfolders to organize my emails. My inbox is a monster of disorganized emails and so the search option is my only friend. 2) If I should accidentally delete an email in K-9 I cannot undelete it. 3) K-9 has never provided a way to directly print emails. I have to forward the email to my print server.

Please, can anyone tell me if these deficiencies have been addressed in Thunderbird for Android?

Many thanks.

Richard
