Forum zhromadźenstwa Thunderbird for Android

Hi, I still use K9mail as my primary email client. I've been testing Thunderbird for Android for a little while now. Here's my issue:

When I delete an email in thunderbird and sync with the server, I go back to K9mail and sync there too. But the deleted emails are still showing up in my inbox. Am I impatient or is this a real bug?

Hallo, kürzlich habe ich Thunderbird mobil auf meinem Samsung Tablet installiert. Leider zeigt die App keine Menüleiste und keine Option eines Adressbuches. Dazu greift Thunderbird auch nicht auf gespeicherte Kontakte zu. Bei der Desktopversion wird sowohl die Menüleiste als auch ein Adressbuch angezeigt. Könnte mir bitte jemand behilflich sein, dieses Problem zu lösen? Vielen Dank! Grüße, Monika

Hello, I'm trying VPNs, but have found that sending mail by Thunderbird for Android is blocked by 4 different VPNs on two different devices with 4 different protocols, while email sending by TypeApp is not. Any ideas?

Hallo liebes Thunderbird-Team,

besteht die Möglichkeit, Ordner direkt in Thunderbird-Mobile anzulegen oder geht dies nur über den PC mit anschließender Synchronisation?

Vielen herzlichen Dank LG Jürgen

Hello, I have authorised notifications in the Thunderbird application for Android, but I don't receive any when I receive emails. For your information, in Account Settings > Notifications, I checked the first box "Notifications of new emails" and the fifth box "Synchronisation notifications". What's more, in the "Notification categories" section (further down), in the screen that opens before "Emails", the "Alert" and "Application icon badges" boxes are ticked, and there's a sound associated with the "Sound" heading. With all this, I don't get any notification of incoming emails. Thank you for your help, Kind regards, Renaud *Email removed to protect privacy*

In attempting to compose an email, TB does not recognize any contacts when I start typing the first few letters of their email address nor when I try typing their name as it appears in phone contacts. First installed TB on this new phone just a couple days ago, and my recollection is it was working fine. But then I went ahead with the Android 14 update, and after that is when TB seemingly forgot all contacts/email addresses. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling TB, but that made no difference.

When will composing/writing, sending and receiving HTML emails be available, possible in Thunderbird for Android? I know this HTML functionality is not available in K-9 email on Android, but it is available in Thunderbird, Thunderbird Desktop on all other platforms like Windows, Linux and MacOS except Android.

Hi. I use Thunderbird for Android and I am not.able to send email abroad. When I use email with CZ there is no problem, hit with other EU/COM/PL....all emails return. Settings are correct, I checked woth my IT...I do not know what to do. Kind regarts Barbara

Hi folks, thanks for the amazing Thunderbird on Android.

I have a couple of observation I'd like to share.

1. When the device's theme is set to dark and Thunderbird follows, some parts of the email body becomes unreadable. This is not the case with Gmail (this is a Gmail account). I am attaching screenshots for this (1.jpeg for Gmail, 2.jpeg for Thunderbird). Is this an expected behavior?

2. The app seems to use green and violet colors for email body by default. And, it misses some of format colors of the email body itself. That is something I do not prefer. Is there a reason why Thunderbird chose this color and formatting? Is there a way to change the colors? Again attaching screenshots for this (please note the arrows I made especially, 3 for Gmail and 4 for Thunderbird and two others I did not number showing the green format (from Udemy)).

3. There are format problems with the Thunderbird (5 for Gmail and 6 for Thunderbird). Are these expected? It makes reading and seeing the mail problematic.

4. I think there is a problem with the way notification times are shown on Thunderbird. In the screenshot 7, you see that notification timestamp for Thunderbird is shown as 14:07. However, none of the emails shown just below have that time. Why would that be the case?

5. Lastly, even though the setting is set for Push, my emails come on average 10-25 minutes later than Gmail app itself. Is this also an expected behavior?

Thank you.

Running version 8.0, Thunderbird App for Android. Noticing all subfolders are labelled "INBOX.trash, INBOX.Sent Items, INBOX.General".

Wondering if there's a way to remove.the "INBOX" part?

Just installed. Thunderbird doesn't fetch new messages unless I open the application, anyhow with no notification sound. Couldn't find the solution into the setting. Android notification enabled. Any advice? Thanks and regards Sandro

At first thank you for Thunderbird for Android! I have installed this App and have some questions. Even though I have enabled notifications for the app, I do not receive any notifications when new emails arrive. Is this a mistake or do I need to adjust something else? I also think there is a problem with synchronization. New emails are not retrieved on time and emails deleted in the app are not synchronized. This means that they are not deleted in the desktop program. Is there a solution to this? Best regards Jens Gerlach

Thunderbird for android is failing to synchronise data with email servers. Thunderbird for android is the exciting thing for people who prefer privacy and security as a default. But the transition from Top market email providers to thunderbird is not that smooth even after so much of testing the thunderbird android application still legs the reliability people look for a premium email client. The synchronisation with gmail and outlook servers is failing, it has to be manually synchronisation everyday or we don't get the latest emails. This is a headache for users whose work depends upon email communication and they look forward to Mozilla for a private and secure email client. Please I am a big supporter of open source and free internet but we need reliability for professional services. Please fix Regards A passionate User

When I delete a message on Thunderbird Mobile, it still shows on my desktop (does not sync). Please advise the process where the messages in the mobile app is consistent with desktop. Thanks!
