Dzień dobry, Do Thunderbird dodałem konto pocztowe. Program pobrał wszystkie wiadomości email. Zmieniłem ustawienia serwera, aby się program nie synchronizował, ponieważ zmieniałem pracę chciałem mieć kopię wiadomości email u siebie na komputerze w domu. Przez jakiś czas wszystkie wiadomości był. W dniu wczorajszym zobaczyłem, że nie ma żadnych wiadomości. Wszystko znikło. Proszę o informację co się mogło stać i jak odzyskać wiadomości.

HI Im using thunderbird I reciently changed my POP3 to IMAP Now Im having starge problems. My sent folder emails are missing the folder info shows that there are 150 emils in the folder but the message no messages found is displayed. Tried deleting the .MSF file Repair folder. The messages are in the server sent folder. Neville

My thunderbird taskbar icon just started to display arabic numberals instead of roman numerals for the count of unread mail. It's weird because it doesn't always display the arabic when hovering over the taskbar, but it has done it more often than not the past few days.

I have seen many questions a bit like mine but they all refer to downloading emails. Mine is different: "The folder 'Trash on my@email.com' could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space, and that you have write privileges to the file system, then try again." It now happens on two different email addresses (one is POP one is IMAP). Trash seems otherwise to work and can be deleted. But still this alarm. MAS OS 15.1.1 (24B91) - latest Thunderbird 128.5.2esr (64-bit)

Suddenly I can no longer receive email.

I deleted all thunderbird profiles and reinstalled. At the time of the first sync, all emails were displayed, but for new emails after that, I cannot see them at all.

I think it is a thunderbird problem because I am able to receive them with another mailer. Sending is working fine.

Please let us know how to improve the problem.

I have lots of filters to organize my copious incoming mail. Messages get moved into topical boxes. Recently I've noticed that a mailbox has unread messages in it and when I open it, I see the new messages for an instant and then they disappear. And another mailbox now has unread messages. So it seems that the filters run on the inbox when the mail is received and then they are run again (but a different set are applied) when I open the mailbox they got moved to by the first run. I see no settings in the Filters dialog that has anything to do with this behaviour. Why is this happening and how can I stop it?

BTW, most of my filters have Stop Execution as the last step. (Most only have a single Move to... action followed by Stop. And for performance reasons, all newly created filters should have Stop as an automatic 2nd step since most users wouldn't think to do this. )

I have a new computer and now when I get an email with an attachment and want to forward that email with an attachment, the attachment is not included in the forwarded email.

Hi,

I put some messages into folders yesterday and then created another folder and dragged the first folder into it to become a subfolder.

When I did this, I saw the new folder but it couldn’t be expanded to show the subfolders.

All other mail clients showed the correct hierarchy except Thunderbird.

Why is this happening?

Secondly, I post comments on the thunderbird blog regularly but they never show up. Where are they disappearing to? Are you receiving them?

I get the error message shown in the attached screenshot when downloading my emails from outlook.com to a local folder called "DAD". Some messages get filtered, some not. Those that don't get filtered successfully remain in the Inbox, but a message with empty content does appear in the local folder, and cannot be deleted or moved. Re-running the message filters manually will moved the affected messages across, but the "corrupt" message remains in the target folder and cannot be deleted or moved.

The drive that the folders are located on is my data drive, which has c 250gb of unused spaced. WIndows 11, Thunderbird 128.6.1 (64-bit), installed a few days ago when I moved from another machine.

I have an Excel VBA script to send emails to contacts using data in a spreadsheet. It does exactly what I want, except that Thunderbird always adds my default signature to the end of each email. While I want this for normal emails, I don't want the signature on these emails. How can I either tell Thunderbird to not add the signature or to delete it from the end of the email after the rest has been created. Here is my VBA code to call Thunderbird and construct an email...

   thund = "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe " & _
           "-compose " & """" & _
           "to='" & email & "'," & _
           "cc='" & cc & "'," & _
           "bcc='" & bcc & "'," & _
           "subject='" & subj & "'," & _
           "body='" & body & "'" & """"
   Call Shell(thund, vbNormalFocus)

Running windows 11 in S mode, Spectrum email. I had been using Outlook but on 11 February, it stopped working. Wouldn't send nor receive. Webmail works fine. Downloaded Thunderbird. Set up my account and started receiving emails. Went to send an email, and it failed to send. Checked all settings and they match Spectrum's server settings.

Trying to troubleshoot, but struggled with directions on the internet. Tried to load developer tools and nothing happened. Found I could open the error console with keypad. The error console says "Could not start Browser Toolbox, you need to enable it." Could not find out how to enable it.

When I attempt to send email, three messages show up in the error console. "NetworkTimeoutError: a Network error occurred SmtpClient.sys.mjs:476:17" "SecurityError info: SmtpClient.sys.mjs:492:21" Note, no error text was displayed. "Sending failed: ... server (SMTP) timed out.... MessageSend.sys.mjs:341:32"

When I first started running Thunderbird, I remember a certificate error with the Spectrum certificate. I enabled an exception and was able to receive email. Thinking this might be related to the security error on receiving, I wanted to remove the certificate exception so I could see the reason for the security error on receiving. Comments say it is stored in the profile. If I try to open the profile, Thunderbird says profile not found. I found the profiles, but the path to them is not the path listed under Troubleshooting Information\About Profiles.

My primary issue is not being able to send emails. I would also like to know how to remove the certificate exception.

All information windows (pop ups) in the applications E-Mail and Calendar are extremly small. The informations are extremly bad to read. The possibility to change the size of the letters in "settings" only change the size of the letters of the written message or the calender itself.They will be bigger but the size of the pop ups will stay small. How can I change the size of it? Please answer under Becker.D.1@gmx.de Thanks

I recently lost all my Stored messages (don't know what I did). I have tried restoring everything from my backup device with no success. My backup data is as follows:- Chris's email 3.2.25 (version 128.6.1est (64 bit) Thunderbird Profiles jb1w6eta-esr imapMail imap.virginmedia.com

My stored folders are there.

I have tried importing using Thunderbird Tools Import From a Thunderbird Installation Choose a Profile folder I have then entered various levels of above backup They all say complete without actually transferring any data.

The current level of Thunderbird I have installed is 128.7.1esr.. Since this is different from the backup could that have an effect or am I missing a step in the import procedure?

Thanks for any help
