HI I have the latest Thunderbird installed on my Redmi Note 8 Pro (Android 11). When I try to write an email and add an attachment (e.g., a photo), the system file manager opens. After selecting the file, it doesn't appear in Thunderbird. Sharing a file from the file manager via Thunderbird results in the same issue. Only when sharing a file through the system Gallery app to Thunderbird can I attach and send it successfully. In the permissions settings for Thunderbird, I only see options for Camera and Contacts. There is no option for Files and Media. I couldn't find a solution to this problem anywhere. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Every time I open a message I'm presented with the 'Show remote images' button which I have to click on to see the images in the email. I understand this is a security issue, but like the desktop version, I thought there might be an option to 'allow remote content' from the origin that would be remembered for all future correspondence. Is there a way to eliminate the need to always click on 'Show remote images'?

Hi, I download latest Thunderbird Android version ( dic 2024 ). I have several accounts loaded. When i use unified Inbox i do not see all the emails that it is supposed to be there. I mean all the messages from all the accounts. I know because i go to one specific email account inbox to another and i see messages from today or yesterday and these messages are not on unified inbox. I understand that unified inbox is an inbox for ALL the messages on ALL the accounts, isnt it? Another issue is because the loading of old messages and the search feature related. I dont know why but on a specific inbox, thunderbird android only load a very little quantity of messages ( 20 - 30 ) and no more. And there is not any command to load these month messages, or the prior month message or all the messages from these year, or latest year. There are not these kind of command. So when i do a search on a specific inbox i do not retrive any message because thunderbird android does not retrieve nor load more than just the 20 or 30 latest messages. I see 2 issues to take care on.

Hallo, gibt es bei Thunderbird für Android die Möglichkeit die Mailadresse des Empfängers anzeigen zu lassen? Bei mehreren Mailadressen in einem Konto steht da immer nur an mich und das ist häufig verwirrend. Vorab schon mal vielen Dank für Eure Mühe, Alois

Tell me about it support of the following me us.Follow through. Sometimes, our volunteers would ask you for more information or to test out certain scenarios. The sooner you can do this, the sooner they would know how to fix it.

When I send a mail, the sent folder logically shows the recipient. However, if I move a sent mail into, say, a client folder, all I have is a very user-unfriendly header that shows that I sent the mail. Not a lot of help when I move many mails into client folders. There doesn't seem to be an option anywhere to change this.

On PC thunderbird I can remove the "from" column as I know it's from me, and show the "recipient" column. Is this possible on the mobile version of TB?

Two questions, specific to mobile version (no problem with Linux laptop version)

• how to create a folder and subfolder on an imap account ?
• how to mask subfolders (created by other mean) by default ? But to display only in parent vient.

Hi Community!

I have 4 mail accounts in my Thunderbird for Android ... and a unified inbox that displays mails from all these accounts. Furthermore, I don't want mails to sync automatically, but only if I do this actively i.e. pull down the inbox to get new mails. This works fine in each of the accounts ... but it does not work for me in the unified inbox. So if I want to fetch new mails I have to go into each of the single accounts and pull down the inbox so mails are fetched there. After that, they'll get displayed in the unified inbox, too. But if I pull down the unified inbox, nothing happens.

My desired behaviour would be that I just go to the unified inbox, pull down there and all inboxes fetch mails. How can I achieve this?

Best, Christian

As I've said, I'm at least planning on moving from BlueMail to Thunderbird (which I've been using on my PC for ages). But in the couple of days I've been experimenting with it, I've now found a second problem. It seems that when I download something from the server, it's no longer available for download elsewhere. BlueMail deletes from server when you delete your trash. PC is set to delete on download. Can't find a way to set this on Android version.

Longtime K-9 user. Learned today my outgoing mail send from Spectrum RoadRunner e-mail account wasn't being sent. Switched on my Android to your app and same issue exists. Setting up an oh.rr.com account says your found (like K-9) an untrusted configuration. Yet when i try to use the one Spectrum wants, i get this message "unable to parse TLS packet header” when trying to send. Here are the settings they want used: SSL - on for SMTP & IMAP Protocol - IMAP Incoming and outgoing Server - mail.twc.com Incoming Server Port - 993 Outgoing Server Port - 587 Requires Authentication - Yes, or checked.

I'm gradually moving from BlueMail to Thunderbird. BM lets me create new folders (I use "hold" and "action") to which I move things I've read and want to keep until downloaded to Thunderbird on my PC. Other stuff goes to trash and (along with spam) gets deleted. This program's documentation SAYS you can create "new subfolders" but I can't find out how. "Manage folders" doesn't seem to help.
