I am part of an email list in which many emails come in everyday. That is why I created a sub-folder in Thunderbird for them, and created a manual filter so that all emails with the email-list's address as addressee are redirected to that sub-folder. I do want to be able to receive all the emails that go to that email list, just in this separate folder, so that it doesn't crowd out my other emails. I set the settings to "filter before Junk classification" and I also put that filter on top of all the filters.

I just realized that many many of the emails to that email list landed in the spam folder instead. The addressee is exactly as stated in my manual filter. It is explicitly set to FIRST go through my manual filter before they can be classified as spam. If Thunderbird did what it says it does, none of these emails should land in the spam folder, because filtered out by my manual filter before.

Does anyone know why this happens, and how to prevent it?

I hope someone can help me. Up until the last week or so, I have had no problem with my signature file in outgoing email. I've been using the same signature file for at least 5 years. Suddenly, Thunderbird is blocking my logo image in my signature file in all outgoing mail. Instead, it is showing my alternate text. I am using version 102.6.1 on Windows 10

I am using Thunderbird version 102.11.1 64bit using POP with a Gmail Account. Ocassionally, I have to use Gmail in my Edge browser to send or reply to a message, only to find it appears in Thunderbird.

I have an installed dropbox as a Filelink provider for large attachments. It used to work properly. Recently I found that there is no warning that my attachments are larger than the 5 MB limit that I set. I work with Windows 11 and my Thunderbird version is 102.10.2

When I started working from home, I bought my own domain and used my email address from that domain by forwarding the email to my Zen Internet ISP, where I picked it up. Most people have that address. However, unless I'm missing something, in Thunderbird, I can set it up as the default Reply To address, but not as a permanent From address, so, unless I use the Custom Address each time, people end up with a second or third or fourth email address for me in their Contacts. I assume it's not possible to set up a permanent Custom Address?

My question is in the subject line. "Will the new Supernova interface and Thunderbird redesign cause problems with or disable old extensions?"

It's very frustrating to have to spend hours finding extension replacements when the old ones no longer work. The last time a TB update changed things like this, I had to waste a lot of time doing this. I had to hold off on updating TB for weeks in fact, because doing so would have disabled so many critical extensions that I was using. Eventually, I was able to find replacement extensions (usually having to embrace feature degradation though) and in other cases simply had to give up conveniences that I had grown to take for granted.

I don't welcome the prospect of having to do this kind of thing all over again.

I am currently using Thundrbird 102.10.1 (64-bit).

For years I had Thunderbird set up to open the way I want it to: fullscreen, classic view but without the Tasks/Events pane (which I never use), and with the folders pane at a width that I had set to view all the folder names for each email account.

Something changed a few months ago. I don't know if it was concurrent with an update, but now when TB opens it still shows the classic view but not fullscreen, WITH the Tasks/Events pane and with the folders pane width smaller that I had set it to.

How can I make TB display the way I want it to instead of what it thinks I want?

Can anyone help? TIA

I have been searching far and wide for an answer and am stuck here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1368273

This solution doesn't work for Thunderbird 102.11.0 because there is no OTHER WRITING SYSTEMS. I have set LATIN on font and size, composition is set to HTML. Variable width is set, but if I change this to a specific font, it still shows something different than the font I've used to compose, so it doesn't seem to help.

Sent files show Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Why is it so hard? I want my sent files to look like my composed files as much as possible. For example, if I use a serif font to compose, I want a similar or, if available, identical serif font, for readers if they use HTML as well. Thx in advance.

I have version 102.11.0 on my Mac Catalina. Recently I noticed problems on this Thunderbird. Last month I sent eFaxes that did not go through. My telephone service is looking into that since they provide the email address I am to use for faxing. However, I sent an email with attachment to my GMAIL address, which is not synced with Thunderbird, so that I could bring the file from that inbox into Google Drive. The attachment is a text document I am working on with Google apps. Though the email arrived, in Thunderbird I did not receive a cc: copy, as I usually make with all my email messages. Strange that this should happen after many months of reliability.

The browse button does not work for me. It does nothing when clicking it

I have only just installed Thunderbird, so I'm not sure a reinstall would help

Currently in the box it says: file:///media/randomguy400/44754/Sounds/message.wav

I'm not sure why it has this path. The actual path to the file it is referring to is actually in E:\\Sounds (also the hard drive is named "44754"). Not sure why the path is like this. I'm unable to change the path without using the Browse button.

I'm on Thunderbird 102.11.0 (64-bit) My PC is Windows 10 Pro 22H2

Hello, I accidentally checked the box "don't ask me again" when emptying a folder, in this case spam folder. How do I change it back? I have multi email accounts and they all don't ask me anymore. I have the latest version 102.11.1 (64-bit). Just have Thunderbird installed, don't have any add-ons or anything. Not sure what other details are necessary.

Hi, I have several issues regarding signatures -

1) how do i make a signature consisting of some text as well as an image - i have created my signature in a new email, saved it as a HTML file and used it as a file for my signature..

2) but when i create a new email - it shows for like a 1 second and then disappears.. doesnt appear in replies or forwards..

3) i tried to instead just use an image as a signature.. again just shows up for 1 second in replies and forwards and disappears..

have set all settings as instructed in the various answers in the forums..

Please assist. Thanks

I have received a warning that I'm almost up to capacity on my webhost's email storage. I wondered if I could put my archives on my hard drive by locating them on my hard drive? And how would I do that?

Thanks for any help

I have several email accounts for different purposes. Some are more important than others. Is there a way I can rearrange the email groups for my maximum ease of use. Given the following email accounts: a@1.com, b@2.com, c@3.com d@4.com and e@5.com. Let's say d@4.com is my most important email. Is there a way I can rearrange the emails so that d@4.com is at the top and the rest are arranged in an order for my convenience?

I have six email accounts. Three of them do not allow me to delete emails. When I checked with the support team of my computer(linux), I was told that the problem with the three accounts was probably the POP settings and that I would do better with IMAP settings. I tried to reconfigure the settings, but only resulted in being able to receive emails, but not being able to send emails. This is a disaster for me. When I changed the settings I could only change from the input POP to IMAP. The outgoing settings were not available. There used to be an SMTP window with all the outgoing settings for all the email accounts I have. Where is this window? I can't find it anywhere. I wish the designers would think about the changes they make and their effect on non-tech people.

Any help will be gratefully received.

How can I create a task from an email I receive? How can I convert a task into a calendar event? I'm currently using Nextcloud to sync these things, but I'm open to using something else.

What's up with line wrap in Thunderbird, this is really perplexing. In both TBird versions 60.9.1 on my laptop and a higher version on wife's laptop could not get any functional line wrap in Write (compose new message). Even after changing settings it still just types out one loooooong line.

--In TBird config editor devtools.scratchpad.wrap.Text default boolean false mail.wrap_long_lines default boolean true mailnews.wraplength default integer 72 plain_text.wrap_long_lines modified boolean true <-changed to true (same in prefs.js) view_source.wrap_long_lines default boolean false
