Bug? Is there a fix coming. I move emails between different accounts all day long :)

As an intended workaround, I installed the beta version but the import of settings did not actually move over my configuration of views, toolbar settings, threading, etc. and that would take a quite some time setting up again.

'How can i get my calendar from window 10 pc to new windows 11 pc.? Tried: export failed to un zip. copy - paste entire profile. Thunderbird failed to open. other failed name to long...

Following a switch off and restart triggered I think by a Windows update, Thunderbird is not displaying any messages in my Inbox, though it is showing the number of messages in the Inbox title bar. 'Drafts' and 'Sent' all display correctly, but the 'Inbox' is blank with a grey icon of an envelope and the statement: "No message found". I am an IT novice. I looked on the 'help' pages. I have checked that no filters are set. I have right-clicked on the 'Inbox' title to display the menu with 'properties' at the bottom. I have clicked on that to bring up the dialog box with the "Repair" icon. It shows 'Inbox' in the 'Name' box but I note that the 'Location' box is blank. Presumably it should not be. Presumably it should show either the location of locally stored messages on my hard drive, or the location of the messages on the email server. I am not sure which. I have found the directory on my hard drive where I believe the messages are stored locally. The size of the file suggests to me that they are all there. The periodic 'Checking for new messages' is happening, but nothing is displaying, though a check via webmail shows that new messages are arriving on the server. What should I do to get my Inbox to display correctly? With many thanks, Iain

trying to install thunderbird on a new laptop. got the donation screen, donated. got the thank you screen, it says carry on and complete installation but there is nothing to install, no files downloaded and everything takes me back to the first screen and the thank you screen. I'm getting to the point of taking my donation back and just sticking with outlook!!!

Today TB started Not Responding (freezing up).

What I've done so far: -Reinstalled TB -Updated Windows drivers -Started TB in safe mode -Started Windows in safe mode -Created an exclusion for TB in my Avast anti virus

None of these made a difference.

What else can I try?

I've had issues with this in the past and it seems that it normally just " magically" fixes itself after a while. but this time it's just been ongoing for about a month.

All emails that use HTML are coming through as illegible scribbles unless I view the message bodies as simple HTML(attached screenshots of emails)

this is getting somewhat frustrating. I tried to repair the folder from the properties menu for each inboxes and I tried to do a clean install of thunderbird but it's still giving me the same issues.

hoping somebody can shine some light on how to fix this issue.

we're using godaddy mail (outlook) if that makes a difference.

I am trying to whitelist a domain name. TB won't let me do that. This company has a plethora of emails. I don't want to whitelist every single one of them. That would take me days. It is impractical. I want to whitelist the domain name which is concentrix.com. I want to ensure that all emails coming from that domain name land on the inbox folder. How can I do that on TB?

Many times when I am forwarding emails or copying and pasting text from an outside source, the spell check will choose a word like "isn't" and highlight "isn" as a misspelled word. This has happened with a number of different contractions.

Additionally, it will pick parts of an abbreviated name in someone's email address in the To: field as a mistake. I do not have the time or desire to constantly, go through a long email and choose 'add to dictionary' or click ignore. Why is it even looking at parts of a contraction, and it should be ignoring the To field altogether.

Is there something wrong with my version or is this how it operates? My TBird is up-to-date: 128.5.2esr (64-bit).

I have an email from my company, where I have 18 tags created (for all of us who use the email). And they are not synced. Comparing it with my other coworkers, I have half of the tags synced (tags are saved the same for all workers, same name and color). Please help

Hello,

I want to build an extension, that will have a custom table shown, instead of the default one with Subject, Correspondents, Date, I would like to have for example, Name, User, Status. I've managed to add custom column, but i cannot remove the default ones. So my question is, is that even possible to do? Could i somehow create my own html or xul, that will be rendered in the threadPane view instead of the default one? Is there some kind of a function that i can access when im creating an extension.

Hope my question makes sense. Thank you.

I am running Thunderbird 128 (any version) on a Surface Pro 9 running Windows 11. After sleep/hibernate or going into energy-saving mode, TB hangs for a period of minutes. Eventually it comes back, but it can take 5-10 minutes.

I do not have this problem with TB 115 on the same machine, or TB 128 on other machines (e.g. running Windows 10 or Ubuntu). TB 115 on the same machine can take a few seconds to come back (longer than on my other machines), but that s OK.

I have the same expereince whether or not I am troubleshoot mode. I have created a new profile with no add-ons (and less acounts) and I have the same problem. I was wondering if it is something to do with the fact that I have 8000 folders, and somehow TB is hanging while it checks all the folders. That account is a fastmail IMAP connection, but I have experienced similar on a backup Microsoft Exchange account (again an IMAP connection) with similar number of folders.

Any help would be appreciated.

Have been trying to sync my google caledar with Thunderbird on my win 11 PC. Have two calendar registrated on Thunderbird. On the standar "calendar" the other is under my Gmail acount. If I recive an invitation from outside I can't chose to which calendar I want to ad the invitation to. But if I send from my own E-mail (not Gmail) via Outlook on the PC. Thunderbird gives me the option to chose to which calendar to ad the invitation to. I have open the Google calendar and copied the "shared link" from Google and tried to ad that when creating a new calendar in Thunderbird. But when pasting the link into URL place I'm asked for "PSW". But when typing my Gmail PSW it just anwers " not working..." Obviusly I'm missing something. So please, can anyone explain all nesessary steps needed in order to make a possible sync between google calendar and Thunderbird.

Hi,

I would like to install Thunderbird in current version (135.0.1) via flatpak. My OS is Ubuntu 24.04.2.

Currently, I have installed Thunderbird version 128.7.1esr via flatpak. I was not able to change the branch from stable to release. Can you give me some advice?

Cheers,

Kai
