Thunderbird for Android Community Forum

The new Android version of Thunderbird can't properly send emails to a Gmail address. The emails are blocked by mailchannel.com as having spam content. My host (a2hosting.com) indicates it is a problem with how the email is constructed. This is not a problem for the desktop edition.

I wonder how I can change my password on my thunderbird mobile, I cannot find anything. So I exported my settings from the desktop, but on the mobile the password is still not changed. Thnx for help

When will TB (or K-9) for ANDROID be able to connect with Hostgator email (IMAP preferably)? I follow the settings for manual set-up that Hostgator provides, and they do NOT work on either of your Android apps. They do work for TB on my desktops (Windows and Linux). And I can use K-9 for other email providers (one of which requiring manual settings set-up too)

It's a known issue on the internet already from my researching.

I called Hostgator, and they said it's a problem on the app side (Mozilla). (Then hung up on me. Smooth.)

Please advise if there's some special setting required. Thx.

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

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.
