I've been using Thunderbird on my Mac for 15 years now. Never had any issues with it. Love it. My wife has been using it on her Mac for the last decade. Again, no issues.

Two weeks ago, Thunderbird was working perfectly on both our laptops. However, overnight, we both started having issues sending emails. Any email to anyone now takes over one minute to send. It is painfully slow.

Receiving emails? No problem. No problems with anything else. Only sending.

Specifically, it's sending it from our Bell email accounts (we live in Canada and use Bell for our Internet needs).

I have a second account using a different domain, and that one has no issues sending. Also, when I send an email using Bell's internet browser portal, it sends instantly. So there's clearly a communication issue between Thunderbird and Bell at this point.

When this problem happened, Bell sent us a text telling us that our 1 GB Internet speed will now increase to 3 GB. That's when our email sending problems happened.

I just spoke with Bell, and they assured me that nothing changed on their end. It's too much of a coincidence to think that they have nothing to do with this. However, after speaking with the tech, I'm wondering if for some reason Thunderbird has difficulties connecting to the 3 GB servers on Bell's end. The reason I'm suggesting this is that my laptop still shows 1 GB per second download speed. However, the modem shows 3 GB. The tech suggested that our laptops can't take in more than 1.5 GB. So it's bottlenecked on our computers' end.

It's possible that Thunderbird also has a bottleneck issue because they can't negotiate the 3 GB Bell servers.

In the past two weeks, I have downloaded the three different updates Thunderbird had to offer. However, we have left my wife's Thunderbird active version it when this problem started. As a comparison. No change on either system. We are both running M2 and M3 MacBook pros, so there's no chance of it being a hardware issue on this end. And again, this problem happened literally overnight.

Help?

I started facing a problem when sending emails to a group (example: group@gmail.com) of which I am also a member.

When group members receive the email, in the "From" or "Correspondent" column, the sender appears as "group name", not my name, as it should. This is causing confusion for recipients.

However, I noticed that the behavior is different if:

I send the email directly to one person and CC the group. In this case, my name appears correctly as the sender. I send emails to individual people. In these cases, the problem does not occur. I have already checked the account settings and the sender name is configured correctly. Furthermore, in Gmail's web interface, everything works as expected.

I would like to know:

Is there some additional setting in Thunderbird that could fix this? Is there a known solution or do I need to wait for a fix in a future update?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Thunderbird SendTo not recognizing attachments

I have a Word doc: This PC > Documents > Working > Demo > MyWordDoc.docx

I use Windows Explorer to navigate to This PC > Documents > Working > Demo

I highlight the file and choose SendTo and select Thunderbird

A Thunderbird message is created: - there is an attachment c:\Users\User\Documents\Working\Demo\MyWordDoc.docx - in the message the attachment's size appears as 0 bytes - see Fig 1

When I attempt to send the message I get an error saying "There was an error attaching . . . . Please check that you have access to the file."

Taking another approach I create a new message in Thunderbird

From the message screen I add the attachment This PC > Documents > Working > Demo > MyWordDoc.docx - there is an attachment MyWordDoc.docx (note there is no path prior to the filename) - in the message the attachment's size appears as 11.9 KB - see Fig 3

I can send this message (and its attachment) successfully.

These seems to have started in the beginning of November - I don't use SendTo every day so it is difficult to pinpoint exactly when it began.

Thunderbird 128.5.0 (64 bit) - I upgraded to latest version before posting this Windows 10 Pro 10.0.19045 - Updates are current


Why cannot I use SendTo to create a message with an attachment?

I have Moz on two separate machines; one a Lenovo laptop Win10, the other a Lenovo desk top Win8. My message filters have stopped working. I can't tell if it's all or some, as I have 30 or more on each one. All I know is, my inbox is full of spam and messages supposed to be auto-moved to sub folders are still present. Furthermore when troubleshooting this, manually running both existing and new filters simply does nothing.

What can I do?

Since moving to Windows 11 and reinstalling Thunderbird, I cannot access emails by this route. I have a domain hosted by Easily and can get to my emails directly through their Control Panel, but using the same email, password, ports etc through TB it fails to find the account. I have rechecked all the settings with Easily and tried several times entering them manually in TB, with the same result. What else can I do?

I've recently been experiencing a new problem with Thunderbird. As soon as I click on a subfolder in the left column that is bolded to indicate the presence of an unread email, the unread email immediately disappears. I can usually find it in either the Junk folder or in Trash. Is this possibly a bug in the latest update?

There a $21.40 charge on my CC statement for MZLA Thunderbird email. I had no idea who or what Thunderbird was until looking online. Found the website and saw Thunderbird is a "free" email app. My Verizon rep added it to my new iPhone 16 when it wouldn't send emails via my normal email provider (breezeline.net). I was not told the app was being installed, or that there is a fee for use it. He handed me back my phone and I saw a new gmail account had been added. What is the charge for? And why was I charged?
