Have been trying to sync my google caledar with Thunderbird on my win 11 PC. Have two calendar registrated on Thunderbird. On the standar "calendar" the other is under my Gmail acount. If I recive an invitation from outside I can't chose to which calendar I want to ad the invitation to. But if I send from my own E-mail (not Gmail) via Outlook on the PC. Thunderbird gives me the option to chose to which calendar to ad the invitation to. I have open the Google calendar and copied the "shared link" from Google and tried to ad that when creating a new calendar in Thunderbird. But when pasting the link into URL place I'm asked for "PSW". But when typing my Gmail PSW it just anwers " not working..." Obviusly I'm missing something. So please, can anyone explain all nesessary steps needed in order to make a possible sync between google calendar and Thunderbird.

For years I had a search folder at the top of my folder pane. I forget where it was exactly but it was no more than 3rd from the top, possibly under "Inbox". Today it somehow disappeared. So I've re-created the search folder, but now it's in alphabetical position, which puts it near the bottom. I know I can rename it with something like "aaa" to move it up, but is there another way? I tried marking it as a Favorite, but the Favorite Folder pane just appears at the bottom - so no help. I'm using v. 128.7.1 esr 64 bit.

The title describes the problem. This is an old problem that seems to be triggered by something embedded in the email. Other emails print to PDF or the actual printer without a problem. For security reasons, I cannot attach the email in question as it involves money and account identification.

The email is a credit card reward certificate from Costco and generated by Citibank in case someone else has reported this specific problem.

Retention policy, higherarchy, propagation to sub-folders

Hello, I would like to know how the retention policy effects sub-folders. Does the Retention Policy (RP) propagate down to sub-folders?

Example: I create a folder in my EM account, call it folder1. I go into the RP tab and un-check the use global settings and choose never delete EM's. I then create folder2 as a sub-folder of folder1 and create a RP, un-check use global settings and select delete EM's older than "x" days.

Will folder1's RP take president over folder2's RP and never delete EM's or will folder2's RP override folder1's RP and delete EM's older than "x" days according to folder2's RP?

My OS is Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon, Cinnamon Ver. 6.4.6 Thunderbird-Nebula 128.7, 64Bit for Linux Mint-001 - 1.0

Thank you, MA

14 Feb 2025: Firefox and Thunderbird have lost all account settings and pages

Desktop PC running latest Thunderbird and Firefox. Started Thunderbird, instead of the usual tabs opening, it appears to have forgotten my accounts, asks for my email address, i.e. starting from scratch again. Starting Firefox, all previously-open tabs have gone, though bookmarks are all there.

Has there been some update which has wiped or reset Mozilla data? Yes, obviously I can go through setting up Thunderbird again but that will take quite some time and yes, I can use Firefox but many of the tabs I had open were there for a reason and it will take a while to find them all again.

Is there any way that the previous state can be recovered? My laptop has both applications running fine and I have paused Windows updates for a week, just in case the latest update caused this. Thank you.

For nearly a year, now, I've been very happily receiving my YouTube comment notifications regularly and quite satisfyingly. Since this latest update, suddenly they are not showing up in any part of my INBOX, when I check my e-mail.

I've checked all the settings I can find, regarding notifications -- both on YouTube and Thunderbird. I changed a couple of things that shouldn't have made any difference, and they didn't.

I have three YouTube channels, and I tried switching to my earliest one as the "official" one that uses my lindawing2@gmail.com e-mail sign-in, hoping that that might make things work again. I had it set, before to my Grandma's Got Grace channel (which is my third channel), and that didn't make any difference, either. My other channel is Grandma's Gone Gaming. It also uses lindawing2@gmail.com for my sign-in. So I didn't bother trying to change over to that one.

I'm still getting ALL (and that's a huge listing every day) of my notifications under the bell, in the YouTube menu, but I don't care for the way those work. I MUCH prefer the way the Thunderbird e-mail has been processing those notifications for quite some time, now ... until the latest update.

This is very frustrating. The change has also affected notifications that I usually get from other channels (those by friends who have their own websites and/or chat channels set up, that allow me to ask for notifications of messages they send me).

I'm getting NO notifications at all, in my Thunderbird app, now. Period.
