Hi, I'm not good with computer speak so please answer in simple English. Also, I'm sending a picture to help me explain. The "Inbox" in my picture is what my Thunderbird says is in my gmail.com labels. Only it does not list all of them. I deleted some labels in gmail and they were also deleted in the Thunderbird list. Then I added a couple labels in gmail and only 1 is listed in Thunderbird, the other is not. I tried closing both programs and added a couple more labels in gmail, nothing in Thunderbird. How do I get Thunderbird to recognize all of the labels in gmail? Right now in gmail there are 6 labels, I doubt there will be too many more in the future. Let's see, yes Thunderbird is up to date, have a Dell computer with Windows 8.1. Yes, I know that it is old and it's what I like and am used to, so that's what I'm staying with. Thank you, Bernadine

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.

Every time I open a message I'm presented with the 'Show remote images' button which I have to click on to see the images in the email. I understand this is a security issue, but like the desktop version, I thought there might be an option to 'allow remote content' from the origin that would be remembered for all future correspondence. Is there a way to eliminate the need to always click on 'Show remote images'?

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.

Question: where can I find a key that has been changed, or when asked is it automatically saved an will appear when needed . Question: I am trying to recover everything-l also need to know (my finger slipped and lost what I was working on) not sure since I lost that info! But I think something like I should tap on user name, and something about a list of keys would appear? I do not remember what I was working on but somehow I think it was important? Recover is taking time but I need a lot to recover.I hope most of what I need to recover if they need a key it will be with (such as contacts!)what I am trying for recover. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me. Sorry for the long rambling but could not see how to shorten the question. I need help with other recovery info...

For several months I have been getting all these woke "news" popups from Firefox in the bottom right corner of my PC screen. I use firefox as my default browser and don't feel like uninstalling, but soon I will have to because it is so annoying when I am trying to play a game and firefox comes along and tries to brainwash me with its woke agenda. I mean, today it's giving me a popup telling me to go plant-based for a month, WHEN IT'S LITERALLY CARNIVORE MONTH. HOW DO I REMOVE THIS BULL****!?!?!?

Unable to send or receive emails, via several gmail accounts. Thunderbird 128.5.2esr (64-bit); Windows 11 Home, 23H2 Have used Thunderbird and Gmail together for over a decade - various glitches along the way, but nothing for which some solution was not found, at least up until now.

1) On Dec 31, 2024, received an error msg "Unable to write the email to the mailbox. Make sure the file system allows you write privileges, and you have enough disk space to copy the mailbox." Thunderbird Inbox for that gmail account had grown bloated - in part because Message Filtering had stopped working (another issue...): moved / deleted a bunch of emails, and was able to receive new ones.

2) On Jan 1, 2025, ALL gmail accounts stopped receiving messages, initially with error of "Connection to server.pop.gmail was reset." As of today (Jan 4), all accounts are still non-functioning, but T'bird has given up even throwing up an error when attempting to retrieve messages. Attempting to Send a msg results in: "An error occurred while sending mail: Outgoing server (SMTP) error. The server responded: Cannot connect to SMTP server 172.253.113.109 (172.253.113.109:587), connect error 10060."

3) Running Nordvpn and Norton security suite. Have defeated both, to no avail. (With close / reopen T'bird; Reboot system thrown in for good measure.) Note: Have ran both of those apps, with Thunderbird, literally for years without any known problems due to the combination.

4) Confirmed that the Gmail / Thunderbird settings agreed with Gmail recommendations (and each other).

5) Removed permission for one of the accounts from google's site, hoping T'bird would prompt for new one: no go. Then TRIED to Remove the Thunderbird-stored Account Password for that account, but was stymied by a "Windows Security" dialog asking for an Account PIN: Do not recall ever creating such a beast for Thunderbird, and none of the possible stored Passwords proved acceptable. Also wonder why a Windows Security dialog is being tossed up from within T'bird.) (The dialog box offers up a "try another way" option, but that simply calls up a prompt for Username / Password: NO COMBINATION of those worked. Note that ALL such combos are stored in Bitwarden and eWallet, and work for those same accounts in other access situations.)

Obviously a frustrating situation. Am posting this in the hope that someone will be able to provide suggestions. In the meantime, have decided that it may be wise to look for alternative email solutions, although that is definitely a Non-Optimal approach: am a fan of Copernic Desktop Search, which only works with either Thunderbird or Outlook, and I have much preferred T'bird over the years.
