I started having problems with newsgroups sometime after updating to TB version 102. I'm not really sure exactly when.

I started noticing that when I check for new messages, only about 1/2 of them are getting downloaded.

This even happens for messages from the same poster. I may get some of their messages downloaded and some not downloaded.

This happens from 3 different news servers, eternal-september, paganini bofh, and solani so the problem doesn't seem to be on their end.

I installed XanaNews 1.21 awhile back and using it I get all messages including those that are not downloaded by TB.

I just upgraded to TB 102.11.2 when it came out and I am still having the same problem.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks, Bill

Hello everyone, I just installed Thunderbird Beta (114.0b6 - 64 bit) out of curiosity.

When I import RSS Feed, all icons representing folders are gone unlike on Thunderbird Stable version.

Although Feed Subscription pop up window still show icon for each feed folder.

Is this normal on Thunderbird Beta?

why, on a regular basis, when I open Thunderbird does it show a "done" message or "Null" and not access the mail server...This results in my having to restart my desktop after which it then connects and down loads emails. I am happy with the Thunderbird mail set up and have donated twice... I am hesitant to donate again while this issue persists. Mark Morrissey [removed phone# from public]

The attached picture shows what my Address Book columns look like. I am unable to expand the list name column so that I can read all of the name.

When I hover my mouse over the list name column I get a thick gray line, but there is no way to get the column to move right.

How do I move that column to the right so I can see all of the name?

My ISP is stopping its email service (accessed via Thunderbird) at the end of June so I've set up a Gmail account (also accessed via Thunderbird) and created folders corresponding to those in the old account. I've located the profile folder for my old account, and tried to import my old emails from this via Tools > Import in my new account, but only the contents of one folder in the old account have been transferred. I've repeated this a number of times with no greater success, but what I do now have is a series of duplicate folders and 'Thunderbird Import' folders that have been generated in my old account (see screenshot).

How can I get my other old emails into my new account?

Hi.

I am using TB 102.11.2 (64-Bit) in German. Installed add on "Provider for CalDAV & CardDAV" and "TbSync". My iCloud contact list contains more than 300 addresses.

If I create a new contact in TB, it will be immediately synced to iCloud. If I change a contact in TB, it will also be immediately synced to iCloud. But I have two contacts, which are not synced, and I dont know why. This contacts I imported to TB from Outlook via .vcf file. Both contains images of the users. And both are shown in TB.

I am unsure, if "Provider for CalDAV & CardDAV" is necessary, I read a post with the info, that TB includes now native support for both protocols. Nevertheless, the problem still exists, even if I deactive this add on and sync again.

In the past, I also have had a problem with some contacts. I think it was a problem with some

Where can I find a log? How to debug this problem? Please help...

Thank you for your help! Kai

Hello I am a long time user of Thunderbird, I am on the update channel, I am a retired technical support consultant so hopefully I have tried many of the obvious things. Nine times out of 10 if I send an email from Thunderbird mail to a Gmail address it gets rejected. Quite often if I try a second time it's okay but just recently it's been getting worse and this afternoon I tried about eight or nine tries and finally gave up. The problem is definitely a thunderbird problem as if I use other email clients or send mail from the ISP's website to a Gmail address this problem does not exist. Thank you in ADVANCE, Martin
