If I select File | Save in Thunderbird when composing a message, where does Thunderbird put the file? The saving notification flashes past too quickly for me to read, and I can't find it in the usual email folders.

Hello, need to automatic delete all mesages older than 30 days. Have filter for that but seems it doesn't work because I still see 369 messages in folder. If I run filter manually, it works and remove old messages fine.

Any idea please? Thank you

I have 2 computers and have Thunderbird on both. On one PC when I delete emails, they go into the Trash folder for that email account, but on the other PC, when I delete an email it goes into the Trash Folder under Local Folders. I must admit that I don't know the purpose of Local Folders, but that's beside the point. I just want deleted emails to go into the Trash folder for the email account in question. These are all POP email accounts.

Hello.

Well, I created a new website for a specific vendor in my hometown. Despite the storage change (from a shared server to a dedicated one), and the recreation of the e-mails on this new cPanel, with the same settings, I keep getting "This e-mail can't handle encrypted passwords". All settings are correct, with encryption on, but that IMAP error keeps showing...can you help?

Windows 10

Have FOLDERS pane; some have subfolders.

For some reason -- which has never happened before -- copying messages from INBOX or SENT and pasting into one of the subfolders, T'Bird has decided to make all of those messages "subfolder subfolders" (best I can call it, what with the graphic below); i.e., the first message moved over looks fine, but then the subsequent messages all suddenly are listed in this stairstep business.

No. I want each, individual email that I move from INBOX or SENT to remain individual, not chain-linked or whatever it's called.

Why did it decide to do this? How to fix?

Appreciated - Thank you.

Hey folks, I don't know if this is a new feature or whether I've just noticed it now because I'm getting a lot more e-mails from the US East Coast. I'm on US West Coast time. The time of the received emails appear based on the sender's time zone, not the time I actually received the email, in my time zone. Is this a feature? If so, can I modify it to show received time as per the local time? Thanks, Steve
