Anyone have any ideas here?

Hi,

I have moved my domain from one.com to dreamhost.com. I use the same email as I always have: me@mydomain.com. When I send mail using the thunderbird client on my windows desktop, I get this message: >>> from Postmaster <support@one.com> This is the mail system at host send.one.com. I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not be delivered to one or more recipients. It's attached below. <<<

I assume there is still a setting that uses 'send.one.com', but I cannot find it. Who can help me out?

Filter to move messages of a certain age from IMAP folders to Local Folders

I use an extension called FiltaQuilla that allowed me to create a filter like so: Folder name is Joe Blow Age in days is >30 Move message to Joe Blow in Local Folders

This allowed me to move older messages to an equivalent folder in Local Folders to keep from using up IMAP space. At some point, this silently stopped working. Now, nothing happens when I run my filters on the IMAP folders. The >30 day old emails remain in that folder.

I'm guessing it's an issue with FiltaQuilla, and probably needs to be asked of them. But that brings up a new question: has this ability been integrated into Thunderbird recently? Is there another way I can do this without an extension?

For a few months now I get a Send Message Error whenever I try to send an email from one of my addresses (see first screenshot below). I've checked my SMTP server settings and they all seem to be correct. (2nd and 3rd screenshots). I'm using the latest version of Thunderbird on Mac OS 15.3 Sequoia. I have no firewalls. What could be the problem and how can I fix it?

Change request. Hi, With Firefox 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 annother 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?

Background I wanted to give Thunderbird a shot because I really, really got tired of Outlook and their shenanigans. About 2 months ago, I tried it a first time and had an issue that prevented me from sending emails from my Hotmail email accounts. I gave up after a week of troubleshooting.

Outlook has come up with more bugs and shenanigans, so I tried again, convinced that there had to be a solution. And I found one. If anyone is interested, I was getting the error "Login to server outlook.office365.com with username <...> failed", and the way I fixed it was by replacing "hotmail.com" with "outlook.com" in the server settings. However, not all is fixed yet.

Current problem I noticed that the messages in my Outlook mail (other than the inbox) are not syncing properly. When I start TB, it appears to sync folders because I have seen new emails in subfolders already. However, if new emails come in while TB is open, it only syncs them if they are in my inbox.

I have looked around already and found that when I right-click that email account and I choose "Subscribe...", it presents me with an empty list and I can't see or enable/disable any folder subscriptions (refresh does nothing). This is strange because of 2 reasons: 1. All my subfolders are there, and they seem to sync when I start up TB. But even if I immediately open the subscribe window, the list is empty. 2. I have a total of 4 email accounts configured, 2 Outlook and 2 Gmail. All except for 1 Outlook account show me the list of folders in the subscribe window, so that made me think it was something in my Outlook account settings. However, nothing I can find there seems to be helpful.

Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this? I'd rather not close and re-open my TB app each time I want to check for new messages. I really want to give TB an honest chance but it's not making it easy for me to like it right now.

Hi there, I belong to a squash club which e-mails me confirmation of my court bookings. These mails go to my spam box. I've created a filter to move them to my inbox, but it doesn't work. (I've created other filters and they work fine.) WHat is strange is that the 'To' address on all of my other e-mails is my address - m535i@btinternet.com, but for these ones it is to admin@hamptonssl.co.uk, where I guess it is somehow being redirected to my address.

The following is from one of these e-mails.

From - beactive@activitypro.co.uk

To - admin@hamptonssl.co.uk

Subject - Booking Confirmation

2 questions really, what is happening here, and why doesn't my filter work? (I've attached a pic of the filter, and one of the e-mail)

Thanks for your time. Steve
