Thunderbird Community Forum

So have Win11 , TB128.5.1esr (64-bit). Been running "TB" since it since it was Eudora 1.0.

I have an account set up to fetch my Gmails , set up as a POP. I've already unchecked... Tools/Account Settings/google pop account/server settings... -Check for new messages at startup -Check for new messages every -Fetch headers only And in "Advanced" , "include this server when getting new email" is greyed out and unchecked.

The google POP account uses it's own folders, not the "local folders, as does all my other pop accounts in TB.

When ever I click, "Get Messages" , the google POP account gets checked, and downloads emails.

How do I "disable" it from being part of the "Get Messages" button/command?

TIA

I have a new computer running Ubuntu and I want to move my Thunderbird profiles from a windows 10 machine. The problem is the windows 10 machine is running version 133.0 of Thunderbird and the latest stable release of Thunderbird for linux is 128.0. How do I move the profiles?

Thunderbird refuses to send messages with embedded pictures. No error message. Just a flicker at "send" and then, nothing happens. I use a combination of gmail and Thunderbird if that matters.

Today when I launched Thunderbird it opened the program to Account Setup window. I clicked the Inbox tab at the top and I noticed all my folders were gone as will as all my email accounts, saved emails, calendar setting, basically it looks like a fresh install. An internet didn't offer much help. I did find some info about Troubleshooting Information from the Help option and found the profile folder location. It looks like there are still folders there but I am not sure what they really contain. I tried installing Thunderbird on top of the current program but it made no difference. I also tried an Import of the Default file location that Thunderbird suggested and I got an error message that the Import failed unexpectedly. I've scanned my PC for any viruses and found none. I am using the latest version of Windows 11. Seems like a weird problem as I used Thunderbird yesterday with no problems. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thx,

[EN] I have the latest version of Thunderbird without any add-ons. The following message is often displayed for the Wirtualna Polska email account: Server IMAP disconnected. I have checked the settings multiple times and they are correct.

[PL] Posiadam najnowszą wersję Thunderbird bez żadnych dodatków. Często dla konta pocztowego Wirtualna Polska wyświetla się komunikat: Serwer IMAP rozłączył się. Sprawdzałem ustawienia wielokrotnie i są one prawidłowe.

For some reason, I am getting message that the Certificate for server is not valid (etc.). I can not get or send my emails as of this morning. Is there something I can do to resolve this issue?

When I press "New Contact" in Address Book mode, so that I can enter a new contact, the address list (far left field) grays out , the new contact data entry field appears and I am able to enter data in this field. However, I am unable to save the new contact in the address book which I have selected! The only way that I can get the pane back to normal is by closing the Address Book tab. Jim

Hallo, seit ca. 3 Wochen habe ich das Problem, dass wenn ich Thunderbird öffne, Emails erst 30 Sekunden später aberufen werden. Was hab ich getan? Google bemüht, nichts gefunden. Speicherplatz um 400 Emails gelöscht, vorhandenen Speicher 2000 auf 4000 gesetzt. hat alles nichts gebracht. Erweiterungen habe ich so keine, bis auf Language Deutsch. Cache gelehrt, brachte auch nichts. Windows 11 Prof. Thunderbird 128.5.1 eser.

When I get a meeting invite via email, or manually create a task or event they do not sync from the tbird home calendar to google calendar. However, if I create an event or task in another of my calendars it automatically goes to the g-calender and tbird home calendar.

When I get an email invite or create a task or event from an email I do not have the choice to use another of my calendars which syncs with g-calender.

How do I get the tbird home calendar to sync to g-calendar? In searching for answers there are several archived and current unanswered question on this topic so my guess is it does not work?

Thanks for any insights.

Using Tbird v128.5.1esr (64-bit) on windows 11

Hi, I have absolutely no filters set up and I am getting this error message. I saw this issue has been mentioned in support, but the answers were to disable filters. What can I do since I have no filters set up? This just started happening after years of using Thunderbird. Thank you!

In the Today Pane, I use various views depending on what is shown in the rest of the Thunderbird window. Sometimes my Today Pane shows Events, sometimes Events and Tasks, and sometimes only Tasks. If one uses the Events and Tasks view in the Today Pane (left in the picture), one specifies how large the Events section is and how large the Tasks section by sliding a separator up or down. For some time now (since the release of Nebula?) I notice that, if I use the Tasks view in the Today Pane (right in the picture), the Tasks section does not fill the whole Today Pane, but its size is only that which the Tasks section has in the combined Events and Tasks view. The tasks used to fill all the space in the Today Pane by themselves, like the Events view still does (middle of picture). This seems like a bug to me. Has anyone else noticed this?

Events reminders that are snoozed sometimes do not show back up. I discovered this when I restarted my PC and when Thunderbird came back up, a number of those snoozed events were suddenly back.

After deleting/removing a gmail account Thunderbird gets stuck in a loop constantly requesting that I login into that non-existing account.

The only solution I found was from over 2 years ago suggesting that we manually find and remove some random files, which also caused me to have to re-login into all of the existing accounts.

I feel like adding and removing accounts is a basic functionality for email apps. How has this not been fixed in over 2 years??

And why does it even remember removed accounts? If I remove it from the list of accounts I expect Thunderbird to delete all mentions of it from my system.

Dzień dobry, dostawca hostingu zmienił adres serwerów. W thunderbird mam 8 kont pocztowych, na 4 zmieniłem adres serwera poczty i wprowadziłem na nowo hasła. Po kliknięciu pogrupuj wiadomości grupuje tylko konta pocztowe na których nie było zmiany adresu serwera, te konta pocztowe na których była zmiana serwera NIE GRUPUJE wiadomości - proszę o pomoc jakie zmiany wprowadzić aby grupowało wszystkie wiadomości.

Porządkowanie wiadomości i napraw - nie działają. Pomoc - tryb rozwiązywania problemów i ustawienia fabryczne - nie działa

Здравствуйте!

После сжатия папки входящие в программе Mozilla Thunderbird исчезли все сообщения в рабочей почте. Покажите путь, как восстановить сообщения и/или путь, куда программа переправила все сообщения. Данное удаление происходит не первый раз и я уже терял все свои сообщения.

I'm using 128.5esr (64-bit) in Mac. There was a email in inbox ; I can mark it as read-under but cannot delete, move; I tried many times delete or move but nothing happened. After several restart that zombie email left but also I saw many empty folders which must have hundred emails in it...

my last backup belongs to months ago, so I lost all important emails. How to recover it I do not know. Any advice ?

I want to save files externally from the service provider so that they are on my PC. Could this be POP3 and can old files be converted to this or:- Is the another way of saving directories of data to my PC Thanks Alan
