Thunderbird コミュニティフォーラム

The messages in 2 of my Gmail email accounts have completely disappeared! Gone with no trace. How do I get them back? On Jan 1st, the first email Inbox messages disappeared and the next day the emails in another email Inbox were gove. I spent time yesterday reading ideas on how to fix this and trying every one, but no luck. Messages that had been moved into sub-folders and Sent messages are all still there. I use those 2 email addresses to operate an online business and really need the messages back as soon as possible.

The problem is only with Gmail Inboxes. I have other email addresses from Yahoo or individual domains and all of those accounts look fine.

I have been using Outlook for my mail client but am thinking about switching to Thunderbird. In my Outlook client I currently have 20 emails in the junk folder of one of my email accounts. When I setup the same email account in Thunderbird I noticed that all the junk mail is not showing up. I now wonder if Thunderbird blocks junk mail at the source? If so, how can I be sure that some mail is not incorrectly flagged as junk and thus removed?

Thank you for your time and effort.

Bonjour, et meilleurs vœux pour cette nouvelle année 2025 qui commence.

Voilà déjà plusieurs années que j'utilise Thunderbird pour ma messagerie et qui a toujours favorablement bien fonctionné, avec tous les mails sur un disque externe, ceux du jour comme ceux que j'ai pu sauvegarder dans des fichiers. Bref un fonctionnement parfait et surtout beaucoup mieux qu'orange qui plante au bout de trois mots Un choix que j'avais fait jadis aussi pour éviter tous risque de piratages comme certains de mes amis ont pu avoir.

Il y a un peu plus de trois mois, un matin Thunderbird a tout simplement refusé de s'ouvrir, sans raison apparente car aucun changement n'avait été opéré, pas même la veille, sur mon ordinateur fixe équipé de Windows11. Etant responsable de plusieurs associations, j'avais regroupé dans Thunderbird les Emails et messageries correspondants à ces dernières, pour une énorme question de facilité.

J'ai d'abord effectué des recherches personnelles pour savoir qu'est-ce qui pouvait être la cause de ce non fonctionnement. J'ai bien sur interrogé Geek Ozone qui m'a dit la chose suivante que Thunderbird était "un camion avec sa remorque". Vraiment, j'étais fort bien avancé avec ce type de réponse ! Je me suis donc tourné vers l'Intelligence Artificielle de Copilote qui m'a fais faire et refaire un tas de test et de contrôle et cela a pu duré un plus de trois jours, mais au final Thunderbird s'est quand même ouvert et a téléchargé les mails du 04/11/2023 au 21/01/2024 et rien de plus, et toujours rien à ce jour alors qu'il y en a 1625 sur Wanadoo. J'ai fais aussi appel à un informaticien mais qui a juste réussi à me créer un nouveau profile. Donc je n'étais pas plus avancé. Les sauvegardes effectuées auparavant non pas eu plus de succès, pour une remise en route. Alors que faire maintenant ?

Je reste à votre disposition pour tous renseignements complémentaires. Bien sûr j'aurai aimé une aide du type de TeamViewer. Certes je fais de l'informatique depuis 45 ans mais dans ce domaine de dépannage je reste bien dépourvu.

Je vous remercie par avance pour votre aide et vous adresse mes cordiales salutations

Having moved Thunderbird from Drive C: to Drive D:, space saving, and with everything working very well I note that my Address Book is still on Drive C:. Please advise how to move this to Drive D:. Happy New Year, and apologies for the timing of this question.

Morning people again..

I asked yesterday and got a reply, THANK YOU, but I cannot reply to that person as Outlook is really being silly.

I tried, and only succeeded in deleting that email.

I believe I have an "old" Thunderbird program on this laptop, and even though I have downloaded the New version, it is picking up that old version, from about 2023.

OK, my IT nerd neighbour is coming over later, and she will wave her "magic wand" and see what is going on.

I know the IMAP, POP etc codes for Outlook, and manually changed them last night, still the login via T Bird fails.

I can read replies, and suggestions, but I CANNOT reply to you. Frustrating, heck yes, and almost rude on my part, but NOT my doing.

Thanks for understanding.

Dear Support, Is there a way to make all "new" folders and subfolders automatically default to my preferred format and column settings?

Every new subfolder I create has a default format I don't care for, which requires me to make multiple changes to get the columns I want, in the order I prefer, with an unthreaded view. I create as many as 20 subfolders a week, and am spending way too much time customizing each new subfolder to be identical to the others I've already created and customized.

I know how to customize existing folders and all their children, but this problem is specific to new subfolders. How can they be made to default to the same settings as their parent folder (and for that matter all the other folders in my library) so I don't have to customize each new subfolder?

I look forward to your help! Best, Judy (Jan. 5, 2024)

My problem is everytime I delete emails in my Thunderbird inboxes they reappear again.

So I am requesting a solution to delete emails permanently and never for them to reappear again in my inbox?

Secondly how how to delete individual and bulk emails on Thunderbird inbox and they never reappear again?

HI. On debian 12.8 snap installation of thunderbird, the import from previous profile fails to import messages. I think the problem is because the install procedure creates the subfolder of ImapMail and Mail with the permission 555 instead of 755 or similar.

The error console reports: NS_ERROR_FILE_ACCESS_DENIED: Component returned failure code: 0x80520015 (NS_ERROR_FILE_ACCESS_DENIED) [nsIMsgPluggableStore.createFolder] 2 Pop3IncomingServer.sys.mjs:137

I have the Owl add-on for Microsoft Exchange. However, Thunderbird will filter the messages and attempt to forward them but the following messages appear for each instance, "Sending of the message failed. The mail server responded: Request failed; Mailbox unavailable. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again."

I have checked and the three E-mail addresses that I am attempting to forward messages are correct.

Help!

Hi,

I have done a bit os searching but don't seem to find a solution. I'm using what I think is the latest Linux version 128.5.0esr but as I am using it there are dialogue boxes that come up minimized and I find it annoying to have to drag the boxes to be larger so I can see what they are trying to communicate. Is this an issue with this version... if so is there a later version to correct the issue. I am trying to use Thunderbird on a Chromebook and seeing this issue whenever a new dialogue box pops up.

Thanks for any insight. Jeff

My filter logging stopped. Is there a limit on size or anything? Does it have to be periodically cleared? Yes the logging Radio button is ticked. Linux 64bit Name Thunderbird Version 115.16.0esr Build ID 20241009170210

Thank you!

Hi, I have two Thunderbird accounts and have just added a third. I can't receive any new emails on the third account, nor can I drag and drop emails from one account into the new one. I'm using Windows 10. I have not had any problems before this. I have tried deleting the new account and then reinstalling it, with the same problem.

Does anyone know how do I can get my feeds back? I hope all my saved feeds are still stored somewhere as I use them for research. I just went to look something up and the whole heading is totally gone!

Thunderbird fails importing a valid VCARD file with the error console displaying the error in the attached image.

I suspect that whitespace is not being stripped before checking for "BEGIN:VCARD"

I am happy to provide the VCARD file but there doesn't appear to be any way to attach files other than images.
