Thunderbird for Android Community Forum

I have many levels of subfolders, e.g. main-folder "one" and "two". Below these main-folders I have subfolders "A" and "B" one -A -B two -A -B In Thunderbird Desktop, these can be collapsed and expanded

However in Thunderbird Android these are shown as one one-A one-B two two-A two-B in an flat structure, e.g. cannot be collapsed / expanded.

What do I wrong? BR Andreas

In Thunderbird for Android, when I set up first account, I was asked if I wanted headers only, or full email, and I picked full email. When I set up a second account, I was not given that option, it defaulted to full, and I have not found a way to change that. Can I set that per account, or are all forced to be the same as initial selection?

I want to keep using the original mail app on my phone for primary email account activity, and use Thunderbird on my tablet for multiple lesser-used accounts. But when using tablet would like to be able to monitor the primary account, and possibly use its address as the sender when forwarding an email from a different account (I do this on desktop version now). Is this possible? Or too much mixing and matching? Thanks

Hi all, my organization has disabled SMPT and so I cannot send emails from thunderbird, but I'd still like to receive them through it, but when I go to add an account, I have to add an outgoing server. Is there a way to skip this step?

Hi, When I have to reply to mail in a conversation, Thunderbird is by default in conversation mode. I can't find any options to modify this. Some mails of the conversation are only visible by clicking on the last reply and does not appear in the inbox. 1st screen, mail from 17:51 does not appear, 2 screen yes. This seems to be a bug. Thanks

Downloaded and installed Thunderbird on my Android phone and synced with QR code on desktop just fine.

But there is no icon on any of the phone screens. I can open my mail by opening the app from the Settings list of installed files but no obvious way to place the app on my home page.Androi

I use a Thunderbird E-Mail Client on Android and I have 4 different E-Mail accounts. Everything works fine but with one of the e-mail accounts I have problems because when I send an Email with the Android App the sent E-Mail will not be stored in the sent folder. I know where I can check this in the app but it doesn't work. Maybe you can help me. My email provider is extromail.de

Thanks

Ho importato più indirizzi elettronici gmail ma mi fa vedere in ognuno solo la" posta in uscita" e "posta combinata" senza poter accedere alle altre cartelle. Cosa devo fare?

My phone is a Samsung S20+ running Android 13. My Thunderbird is version 8.2 I can't seem to be able to add folders to any of my email accounts. Long pressing anywhere fails to do anything ie; on the account from the account pane, or the inbox. Thanks for the help. Danny

I have used Thunderbird (and previous) on Windows Laptop for many years. I have four emails accounts and addresses. I have just installed Thunderbird on android. It had a glitch, but it was unintuitive and not easy to fix. After install using the QR code, the first account was ok but the other 3 had an empty Outbox only. No error messages. The solution turned out to be:

Settings - (select each email account in turn) - Fetching Mail - Incoming Server - follow the dialogue with Next as it logs in to the account, and allow permissions. 

After doing this for email accts 2 3 and 4 it now works.
