Thunderbird Community Forum

Hi

I have Settings > General alert notification to show Message Preview Text, Subject and Sender, but the alerts never show the Message Preview. They do show "[my-email] received 1 new message" as a title (which is somewhat self-evident and superflous), [subject] from [Sender]. I've switched between System and non-System notifications but there is no difference.

This is TB 128.6.1esr on Windows.

I have recently begun receiving the following error message from Thunderbird: "Server imap.earthlink.net has disconnected. The server may have gone down or there may be a network problem". It doesn't happen constantly, but at least half the time when reading or moving messages to a different folder or when deleted messages from trash. Examining Earthlink directly from a browser shows that the action issued under Thunderbird has occasionally not been executed. Earthlink Support says everything is OK with them. (I suspect a timing issue, but do not know how to proceed.)

ich wollte eine 4.e-mail(von Google.com) in Thunderbird anlegen. IMAP, SMTP und Benutzer mehrfach überprüft. Es kommt als Antwort immer: Anmeldung auf Server fehlgeschlagenen. was kann ich machen???? Meine e-mail info@harnacke-online.de

What's the meaning of crossed repeat icon for event in Thunderbird Calendar? What it depends on? Have discovered it's a status icon which appears when you set repetition for your event. In my particular case it's crossed for event which is an invitation for me to join ms teams meeting.

hello i have had a problem with thunderbird for a few weeks now.

indexing/updating messages takes a VERY long time.

i use email on WP.PL

i have limited synchronization to 1 year back. despite this, the program freezes a lot when updating emails.

it is impossible to use it during this time. after clicking you have to wait a dozen or so seconds for a reaction.

i have a 1 gigabit connection. despite this, downloading each message takes a few dozen seconds.

i tried reinstalling the program, it did not work.

where to look for the problem?

thanks in advance.

Bonjour, Lors de l'envoi d'un e-mail, le message est bien envoyé mais n'est pas enregistré dans les éléments envoyés. Le message suivant s'affiche : le certificat imap.orange ne provient pas d'une source sûre. J'avais modifié moi-même le certificat. Comment procéder pour résoudre le problème.

I have several Google accounts. For each one, the first time I checked my mail, I got a Thunderbird pop up saying "See, edit, share, and permanently delete all the calendars you can access using Google Calendar" and another Thunderbird pop-up saying "See, edit, download, and permanently delete your contacts", followed by two "Mozilla Thunderbird Email was granted access to your Google Account" emails to each account.

And for all accounts but one, that was the end of it. But for one account, for some reason, I have to go through the whole authorization process again each time I start Thunderbird. I tried deleting the account, and Thunderbird still made me go through the whole authorization process -- for an account that no longer existed!

I re-created the account. No change.

Any idea what the problem is? It started after a Thunderbird update.

Hello, My system is ubuntu 24.04.1 Suddenly my Thunderbird no longer show inline and not even HTML code for incomming mails, just straight text. Some weeks ago everything worked fine. Of cause I have tried to tune in TB settings and the konto-specific part in TB, but nothing seems to help... I have tried a antivirus scan of the whole system with clamscan but no virus was found. Can someone out there give me a clue what to do..? Probably there is a very straight way, but I can't see it. Regards/LÖ

Hello, since a short time (I don't know whether or not it depends on new updates) I am getting long and changing messages in the lower line of the Thunderbird window (see attachment), which alternates at least 4 times.

Before this was not the case, and downloading E-mails was much faster than it is now. What can I do?

Regards

Dieter

Hi, The last month or so, probably after uninstall Bitdefender and using MS Defender, Thunderbird has become very slow in response. When tyoing a new email, it can take up to 5 seconds from typing to the letter appears in the mail. And toggling between mails can also take many seconds.

What can I do? The software is fully opdated, windows 11 on a modern Lenovo ThinkCentre with plenty of RAM.

Best regards

能否增加一个针对已下载的某个邮件“重新下载”的功能，目前我经常遇到客户端下载的邮件附件pdf打不开，但在web邮箱界面是没问题的，当我删除目前客户端邮件配置，重新下载，似乎那个pdf又下载成功了。

Can you add a 're download 'function for a downloaded email? Currently, I often encounter difficulties in opening the PDF attachment of emails downloaded by the client, but there is no problem on the web email interface. When I delete the current client email configuration and re config and re download, it seems that the PDF has been successfully downloaded again.

I like to be able to either accept or not accept the remote content for each message, mostly I don't need it, so I don't want to accept it in general.

However, the yellow bar, which I mostly ignore, is quite distracting when browsing through the mails, so I would like to change the color.

I already tried several approaches with the userChrome.css, like linked below, none of them worked for me. I am using the newest version of Thunderbird on Windows 11.

Hello.

Having had my PC repaired, my VPN has disappeared. And I don't know how to get it back. Can you help me?

How can I recover it please

Hallo,

mein alter Rechner ist "gestorben", weshalb ich einen neuen brauchte. Vom alten Rechner hatte ich die drei Postfächer, mit denen ich "arbeite" gesichert und nun versucht, diese in der neuen thunderbird-Installation auf dem neuen Rechner einzuhängen, schrittweise, so wie in den FAQs zum Thema Import beschrieben.

Aber: Die alten Postfächer/Inhalte werden nicht angezeigt. Sie sind aber im Zielverzeichnis ".thunderbird" zu sehen und an der richtigen Stelle.

Ich bitte um Hilfestellung zur Problemlösung.

Danke im Voraus.

Hi, Since my email was updated(thunderbird) when I want to start a new email message when I push 'new email' the new message page pops up. Every thing is there except the send button and the encrypt button is faded out and not operational. I cannot send or forward an existing email that has come in. I can only reply to an email. I have not changed any settings at all and this problem is both on my desk top and lap top as both have Thunderbird email. This problem just recently happened I think from the latest update

I have checked port settings and nothing has changed at all. I really hope someone is able to help. I am not a computor wizz kid. Help needed please. Thanks if you can help
