Thunderbird-Hilfeforum

Somehow I have lost the toolbar that allowed me to choose the field to be searched eg sender;recipient;subject;content. I really miss this how can I get it back? Thank you. bb

Haven't gotten any mail for 6 days, and getting this pop-up when I try to send mail. What does this pop-up mean?

An error occurred while sending mail: The mail server sent an incorrect greeting: p-impout009.msg.pkvw.co.charter.net cmsmtp Connection Rejected - see http://www.spamhaus.org/query/ip/172.59.24.255 AUP#Out-1220.

I will read your response through my husband's account, or you can reach me at [removed phone# from public forum]

I have Thunderbird 102.9.0. I can't edit an address book entry. I am trying to add another email address for a particular entry. Save does not work, it does not save the edit. If you can't provide a fix, how do I go back to a previous version just within Firefox?

I hate it when updates break things. And now it wants to do another update. Your updates are too frequent. You need to vet them better before releasing.

Unread emails are not highlighted on PC if already read on cell phone. Deleted emails disappear and do not go to trash. These issues first appeared a few days ago.

I've read all the solutions to Thunderbird not remembering passwords and all of them require accessing the Options menu. Problem is that it doesn't exist on my installation and there is no "options" under the MENU button either. See screenshot. If I go to MENU/Settings and then click on "Saved Passwords" it shows a blank form, even though I've logged into and attempted to save the password many times. See SavedLogins.jpg.

Here's the history of this installation under Windows 10, 64 bit. For a decade I was using Eudora then Eudora OSE, which was really a version of Thunderbird. About 4 years ago, I converted it to Thunderbird. Password saving worked fine but TB couldn't read web pages in messages.

About a year ago, I made a new installation of TB which fixed the web access problem, but password saving didn't work and that's the state I'm in now.

My email provider is Earthlink. The Message Storage local directory for the 3 accounts are at D:\Eudora(Thunderbird)Mail\Mail\pop.earthlink.net D:\Eudora(Thunderbird)Mail\Mail\pop.earthlink-2.net D:\Eudora(Thunderbird)Mail\Mail\pop.earthlink-3.net

Something in Thunderbird is pointing at the wrong location for stored passwords, because when I tell TB to save the password, it puts it in WRITE ONLY MEMORY! Please help!

I had a yahoo pop password problem and I was told to remove the account and add it back. In doing so I have lost all my old emails that were on the computer and not i have is a blank account (POP Server account) Is there anyway to recover the old information from the computer

102.9.1 (32-bit)

I get emails with From/Correspondents columns showing i.e. checklistnova.co|Hoses".

Yet, when I select Message/Filter Rules is says "From" is "anyplace@kabobprior.com". Why do neither the "From" nor "Correspondents" columns show the true sender of the message as "Filter Rules" shows?

It is a waste to have two columns displaying the same "fake" info when one could show the true sender.

The issue is that the account sender is randomly generated and can quickly be identified as spam while the displayed data less so.

‘I keep getting a drop down panel which says 'Thunderbird can't update to the latest version', and then tells me how to Download Thunderbird. I have followed this three times now. 'I DO HAVE the latest version 'and paid money. Can you stop this panel coming up every time?

I need to add an entry for smtp.mail.yahoo.com. I have two Yahoo emails (actually frontier on yahoo) and they have different smtp passwords. I'm using another mailtool and don't want to have to change a bunch of passwords, just want to add an entry for smtp.mail.yahoo.com and can't figure out how to do it through the Thunderbird Account settings. Currently I can send mail if I manually enter the password when the window pops up. I don't have either tools>options or tools>preferences available in the menu, can't figure out how to access the Password Manager. Win11 with Release 102.9.0 64-bit

I can see my email when I search for the sender, but when I click on the email it does not come up. When I scroll down in Thunderbird, it does not scroll down to the date. I have attached a screenshot but again I can't pull it up.

Inbox messages are not marked as read automatically when displayed in the Message Pane. This started happening in rel 102.8, and continues in rel 102.9.

The Setting is set to 'Automatically mark messages as read - immediately on display'.

Is there anything to done?

I find it hard to explain and tend now too often to just give up.

I was overwhelmed with the response to an earlier question which itself was archived.

Here it is https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1380099

I want to get this sorted - but probably my lack of mental dexterity and neurodevelopmental disabilities make it impossible.

I looked at Outlook recently but that was not ideal either - I feel as if I am being guessed by technology too often - automatic spelling correction was bad enough - but this is something else and more AI is coming - I have just experimented with the NEW Bing search experience - it seems as if rather than being encouraged to think things through and formulate strategies that work for me - too much is being done for me.

Still at 74 - and in less than good health - I will not need to worry much more.

I would still like to see how to use Gmail with Thunderbird in a simplified form so that I can control what has gone where and understand the hows and whys.

Thanks to those who tried to help me before - I am sorry I did not respond positively to all the work that was done for me -as others did not get involved - I guess this must be a personal issue and not shared with many others.

My Ex recently accessed all my accounts, passwords, pins, the lot. He's changed passwords locking me out of just about everything. I thought I was safe with this twice wiped laptop, but I've just been locked out a new email, which has the one attached to my website: zoe@zleger.com. I need to find some way to get this email back into my hands so I can also recover the new email. I can say I sent a donation last year if that helps verify me. I've created the chisamore email when Google would no longer give me an account with any combination of my name, all of which I have been locked out of. This newly wiped computer has just been infected, sadly by something my son sent me as his email was the last thing I opened until I tried to log into the other email. Now I am locked out of both. I had been conversing with Linux.org about all this (Coreopsis) but I was soon locked out my own computer without even finishing the thread. I have to assume this email is being read but I hope I'm not locked out again. Yes, there is definitely someone watching this and mucking me about. Any help recovering my my website email would be greatly appreciated. Zoe

Hi

I am going on holiday How do

Many thanks

Hi people! Ofesad here from Argentina.

I am building my website for my business and I started to create the email accounts for it: info@xxx.com, business@xxx.com, schools@xxx.com, universities@xxx.com, purchases@xxx.com, so on.

So I decided to use Thunderbird to to have'em all in one place.

Yesterday I try'd to set up the the accounts using IMAP. I had several issues and the only solution was to delete them from Thunderbird and set'em up again from scratch. I endup setting up 2 (business and purchases)

Now I am trying to add more and when I try to add the Info account I got an error: "Incoming server already exists". Logicaly since all the accounts are in the same server, the "incoming server" would be the same.

So, I dont know how to proceed or get around it go add all the accounts I need.

Any help would be more than welcome.

I am a member of a team, which has an email (alias), let's call it team@mycompany.example

Mostly i send email using my personal email me@mycompamy.example, and I also wamt to continue doing so when responding to most emails sent to the team address

However, once in a while I may need to make an announcement using the team@ address as From:

So I set up a second identity using that address

This however now results in TB 102.9.1 (Mac) selecting the team@ address whenever I an replying to email originally sent to team@, which I do not want !! My normal identify me@ is already set as default !

I tried editing my default identify (me@) in Account settings/Manage identities and there

 [X] Reply from this identity when delivery headers match:  *

which did not help, nor did

 [X] Reply from this identity when delivery headers match:  *@mycompany.example

Note that the corresponding setting in the team@. identity is *NOT* set !

How can I make TB always select my default identify (me@) and never ever look at the delivery headers? If I want to use a different identity, I will manually choose it!

I have been using my email address as IMAP in the past, I have since changed to POP and wanted to know how I can download all the email messages from the server that are in separate folders via pop and have them deleted after the download.
