Thunderbird for Android Community Forum

I have a custom image for my business email signature on Thunderbird desktop.

Im trying to get Thunderbird mobile to use the same image, or HTML signature when sending business emails from mobile. All i can find is a simple text input box for mobile signature. It doesn't accept html or images.

Help? Thx

Change request. Hi, With Thunderbird for Windows I can free-type a From: address that is different from the account email address, and I would like to do this on the Android version too. For the avoidance of doubt, I don't want to use another account's email address, I want to free-type whatever I choose.

For example Yahoo allows me to create up to 500 email aliases in the form alias-anyword@yahoo.com

As this feature has always been available on the desktop version, is it something you could incorporate on Android?

I have not found a way to print an email from Thunderbird for Android. There are several occasions when that is important for me. Now I have to leave Thunderbird and log into a web client to be able to print a copy of an email.

I have always found being able to archive messages in thunderbird very useful whether by year or to a specifically created folder, eg " committee business".

  I am finding this impossible in thunderbird for android. How do I create specific new folders / archives. I am sorry if I am missing something obvious. Thank you for your help

I am having problems with Thunderbird not downloading all messages from my icloud account.

It has only download back to November 2024 but I have emails back to 2012. (I have 10000+ emails as I keep them all as an effective records database.

I have adjusted the Thunderbird settings to include all emails of any size and date and set the number of emails to all. My settings are the same as my desktop Thunderbird.

I am running the latest version 8.2.

Does anyone have a solution?

Hi,

In Settings for an IMAP account, Fetching mail, there's an option "Erase deleted messages on server" that has 3 options: Immediately, When polling, and Manually. I get the first 2, but what happens when I select Manually?

Thanks, Mike

I've been trying to add Shared Outlook Office 365 Mailboxes to Thunderbird Mobile, but using the recommended method that is used on other email apps using a backslash "myaccount@example.com\sharedmailbox@example.com" doesn't seem to work in Thunderbird. Is there a different method that I am missing?

I am a novice in Thunderbird on Android (version 8.2). I have uploaded my settings from my desktop, where there is

       <value key="sentFolderSelection">AUTOMATIC</value>
       <value key="subscribedFoldersOnly">false</value>
       <value key="syncRemoteDeletions">true</value>
       <value key="uploadSentMessages">true</value>

So, I expect that the emails I send will be stored in the folder where there is the message I reply to.

But unfortunately, they are not there. I tried to find them in Sent, Archive... but did not succeed anywhere.

Kia ora. I have just downloaded Thunderbird for Android - I always used it in the past, when I had a 'proper' laptop, so was really pleased to see that it was now available. I use a Bluetooth keyboard with my tablet, which transforms using the tablet into something like a laptop. However, my shortcut keys don't seem to work with Thunderbird, like they used to. I can't create bold or italics (there's nothing like the little icons at the top of this box, for example), or move up and down the screen with keystrokes. I can find nothing in the help about this topic. Please can someone help me, or is the Thunderbird for Android of very limited utility?

Thank you in advance.

Hello, TB only searches for Android in the loaded mails. If nothing is found there, how can I extend the search to the server? I don't want to load all the mails.

Hallo, bei mir sucht TB Android nur in den geladenen Mails. Wenn dort nichts gefunden wird, wie kann ich dann die Suche auf den Server erweitern? Ich möchte aber nicht alle Mails laden.

Switched to Android Thunderbird at end of January. Used export function from PC for most of my email accounts but had to do some manually. All emails from Thunderbird Android are being returned - blocked, that is the exported and manual configurations. I have cross checked PC configuration with Android Configuration - same.
