Hi All,

I tried searching for an answer to this with terms like "offline storage" or "moving archived folders" and I found some topics that were close, but did not really answer the question or did not have the detail I needed.

For one of my TB email accounts I have a lot of subfolders for each year, going back for many years. For example, I have a "archive 2017" folder, and so on. Is there a way I can remove these archived folders to my local hard drive so they are not taking space on my server, but that I can still access them easily if needed?

I don't know if it matters, but I use IMAP settings/server.

If there is a solution, please provide as many steps and details as possible.

Thanks everyone,

  Bill

I have Version 128.5.2esr (64-bit), it says it is up to date.

So I've been noticing a couple of days now that I can no longer view messages in the message pane to the right of the screen. When I click on an email in the list on the left, the top of the pane on the right shows me the To, From, subject etc, as well as a yellow bar saying "Warning: To protect your privacy, Thunderbird has blocked remote content in this message." Then, nothing underneath this. Where it used to show the email contents. I do NOT want to have to double click every single email in my inbox to look at them in a separate tab. Most of what I get is not useful. I want to be able to click once and preview the email, then click Down to check the next one, and on and on the same as Thunderbird did it LAST WEEK.

Can someone help me get it back to working please? Thanks!

Hi, I am moving from Outlook and struggling with Thunderbird email accounts I wish to setup 5 mail accounts, four of which relate to different people or departments and on that collects incoming email from mailboxes that are re-directed. I find that I can set up the outgoing smtp and the incoming smtp but I am not give any choice for sending mail. Also whatever I do the first account I set up always appears as the only account visible in the folders pane. If there is a definitive explanation of what to do to configure email in Thunderbird it would be most helpful?

Regards Greg

I have two email boxes (chdw@iinet.net.au & wwrs@iinet.net.au) Both boxes have been working well. This morning all was ok with wwrs but now this evening all my emails in this inbox have disappeared. The computer has not been touched all day. This is my work inbox and some of those emails have all sorts of info that I need. What can I do?

This all started when I cancelled Xfinity and went to Frontier Internet. I had previously used Thunderbird for 8 years through Xfinity with no problems. I have contacted Xfinity and Frontier and both have told me it is a problem with a Thunderbird setting.

Sending of the message failed. An error occured while sending mail: Outgoing mail server (smtp) error. The server responded: resomta-c2p-555920.sys.comcast.net resonta-c2p-555920 sys.comcast.net. Excessive failed authentication. ESMTP server temporarily not available.

I regularly have a difference in the number of emails being downloaded and the number of emails that appear in my in box. For example, this morning when I logged in it said that two emails were being downloaded and yet none appeared in my in box. I have never been able to locate a spam folder. Where are these emails going? Thank you. Dave D.

see attached. When I right-click on the sender's name, nothing happens . . . .

[also, when I "browsed to get the file to attach, your system ignores all .BMPs. Very frustrating. And, why not allow us to drag an image?]

Hi Firstly, thanks so much to everyone for this much anticipated Thunderbird for Android. I've been using Thunderbird for years and am very excited! But I don't (as yet) know what I'm doing! I have set up T f A via QR codes and now have a list of all my accounts on my phone, They are in little circles on the left of my phone and then on the rest of screen it says Unifed inbox and then Outbox (which is highlighted in blue). (Image attached) Currently in my unified inbox there are 39 emails. So 2 questions: how do I get all the (many) other emails I have in my desktop app to come into my mobile app? And how do I only see one inbox instead of the unified inbox? - when I click on the name of an inbox at the top of the screen it just moves on to the name of the next inbox. Thanks Lynne

Thunderbird freezes on loading. It seems to be working (window notifications show incoming mails). The top bar has one item which says "loading" but never does! I am running WIN 11 pro with AVG. I have tried the following: - open TH in program safe mode - Open TH with laptop in safe mode - uninstall and reinstall - Open with antivirus turned off - Deleted all .msf files in current profile (judging by time and date) which seems to have been called xxxxxxxxx.repair . On restart TH did not reinstate the .msf files and the blank frozen screen was still there. - there were about 4 other profiles in the directory although in reality there should only be one. These profiles have various names: defaultnew, default (2 off), default-release and repair. - All profiles except the one with ".repair" were copied to another location before restarting. Any help would be appreciated.

recently i am having problems with sending emails from my desktop, via thunderbird. it keeps asking me to sign in with my new password. however i have not changed my password with virgin. i can send an email from my phone, so i know its not virgin. i have spent 3hours reading up and checked the server and outgoing settings, and changed switched adjusted what i could see, and set them back to the original settings, which in effect meant i have done nothing, and all of a sudden it works again. this did happen a couple of week ago, so not sure what's going on, and i really haven't got a clue what im doing, so any help or advice would be appreciated.

Something has changed in the way Thunderbird is handling Replies. Replies used to be added to the original email with an arrow indicating that the email had been responded to. Now the reply is added to the mail list as a separate email grossly clogging up the list of emails. Sometimes the "replay arrow" is displayed and sometimes not. I do not want the reply shown as a separate email. Is there some setting that will accomplish this? I have been unable to find anything that looks like it would work.

PS The Bold and Italic for this email did not work.

I just installed Thunderbird, linked it to my primary email account (ok!) and then tried to import one year's worth of email messages exported from my Apple Mail client as .mbox folders with an underlying folder structure (1 per month). Thunderbird went away for about 2 hours "downloading" and importing ( ... looking good!), but at the end my "Local Folder: Apple Mail Import" still shows no messages. Where are they and how can I access them in the Thunderbolt client?

I can receive emails fine now as I had trouble for a while and didn't use Thunderbird which was a shame as I like it a lot. But now when I try and send an email it comes up with an error message. Please when answering this please keep it really simple when explaining as I am not very computer savvy. tia. I have enclosed the error message

Just wondering if there was a way to change the behavior of Thunderbird. Currently, if I add a subfolder to an IMAP mail account, that folder will show up in the Unified Inbox. Yes, I know how to remove it from there but I'm getting tired of doing that each time I add a folder as I need to do it to multiple devices.

Thanks.

Today suddenly of my two email accounts, only one was opening when Firefox opened. All my folders were not visible, and the only thing I could see was the inbox for one email account. In the course of my "fixes" it's now even worse. I can only see one old archive folder (I think that's what it is). I tried reading in the forums and questions but nothing helps. I use Norton which some seem to say is a problem with updates, though it never used to be. I know where my stored emails and folders are for both accounts but Thunderbird does not seem to recognize them.

Some emails I receive, when I reply to them, don't correctly display the email (body text) correctly. It looks like Thunderbird is choosing the wrong font colour for the reply email text and I'm after any info on why this happens and how to fix it.

Attached are two screen shots. "original.jpg" shows the original email and "reply.jpg" is my reply email. It doesn't always happen and it *may* be emails sent out by Zendesk.

I'm on latest TBird 128.6.0esr but it's been happening for the last few releases.

When I opened Thunderbird to get and read my new email I received this error message after I could see that Thunderbird had found new messages.

"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."

I checked the hard drive space on all of my hard drives and I have GBytes of space and in PREFERENCES for the hard drive, WRITE is allowed. In fact all items listed in Preferences is set to allow.

I've rebooted the computer and even had Windows check my hard drive for errors and it found no problems. What do I now need to do? Thank you. Fred Berney
