I tried changing the authentication method to OAUTH2 for my Outlook live mail account (POP). For that, I had to change the server name to office365.com. After restarting Thunderbird, I was able to download new messages but all the old messages already stored in Thunderbird disappeared, even though Thunderbird still shows the same old Local Directory as being used.

How do I change the authentication to OAUTH2 & get my old messages back?

If I delete & again create the Outlook live account, would it effect my old mails/filters ?

Hi,

since I installed Ubuntu 24.04 Thunderbird (V. 128.1.0 as snap app) changes the path of the local directory each time I restart Thunderbird. My original path to the local directory points to a mounted drive e.g. /media/username/disk... Thunderbird changes it to /run/usr/1000/doc/.... How can I avoid this? The same thing happens also to the path of the signature file.

Thank you for your help! Ubuntu

Hi! I have a new laptop and want to export a certificate I had installed in my previous laptop. When trying to do so, I'm asked to choose a certificate backup password which I need to enter twice to validate. Once I do it, this message comes up, "Failed to create the PKCS #12 backup file for unknown reasons". I've tried several times with different passwords but the same issue remains. Can you please help me out with this? Many thanks! Alex

Hello, for two months now I've been unable to use Paypal to buy anything on Firefox. Nothing I have done has changed and it's gone from a nuisance to me considering new browsers. I need to be able to pay for things.

I've attached an image to show where it always freezes.

Hi there,

So, I have a professional account with outlook.office365.com for my professional email (which is aleclercq@sobemab.fr). But I use my personal email to contact you right now. We have Black in Mail operating for all new email and then I can't get email from you unless you authenticate yourself.

Anyway, my configuration is : HP computer, windows 11 Professional (build 22631.4112) Thunderbird version 128.2.0esr (64-bit). Add-on Owl for exchange.

Now, when I launch Thunderbird, it connect properly and I do receive emails. All good.

But the problem comes when I want to SEND an email. It doesn' t work. I have attached some screenshots for you to see. It will be easier that way, I guess. I'll appreciate your help on that matter ASAP. Outlook is ok, but I can't stand it and I really want to use Thunderbird. :)

Thank you Best Regards Alexandre

Hi! I recently migrated from Chrome to Firefox and everything is OK except for homepage shortcut icons. They load when I open the sites again but dissappear again after a day or two. Is there anyway to fix this? Thanks a lot

Currently running Version 130, x64 on Windows 10, but this is not the first time this happens. After update, all tabs of the previous saved sessions display a hourglass icon and nothing gets loaded. Same thing happens if you open a new tab to load a new website. After a kajillion restarts this seems to fix itself, but it is as annoying as it gets.

I have used MailStore Home to archive then export an Outlook PST file into Thunderbird. The Export appears to have worked, but I notice that the resulting file structure in Thunderbird Local Folders has "MailStore Export / Outlook Outlook Data File / Inbox", with all my folders residing under the inbox folder (which they should). Is there a way I can change the Local Folder structure to remove the top level "MailStore Export / Outlook Outlook Data File" and leave the top level as "Inbox"? See image.

Hi, My mozilla account (swetank000@gmaIl.com) is deleted by mistakes or might be hacked. Also the pocket account got deleted.

Please restore my account so that I can secure it.

How can I restore Thunderbird settings and/or emails that were lost in the upgrade to version 128.2 (for Ubuntu)? Files for the previous version are still in the hidden .thunderbird folder on my hard disc, but the new version won't recognise them (even if I move them into the snap/thunderbird folder. I have an email backup, but version 128.2 doesn't seem to have a way to restore backed-up emails.
