I am trying to move folders to the Mozilla provided gmail account from my other gmail account and it seems to be locked-up, doing nothing. I also clicked YES when a dialog box suggested that I COMPACT my folders. I think maybe it was getting multiple commands simultaneously and locked. How do I fix this and enable the folders transfer to be done, please?

I am using a Mac with Big Sur (macOS Monterey Version 12.7.6), and my email is POP, using Thunderbird Version 128.4.2esr. My incoming messages are sorted in reverse order so that the latest message is listed first. I retrieve the message headers first then I either delete the message or download the contents of the message. The problem is that when I click on the download instructions Thunderbird does download the message OK, '''BUT it highlights the message just downloaded and it jumps to the next message. '''This is very annoying because in order to read the contents of the message I have to go back one message and purposely select the message just downloaded. It did not do this previously. Please correct or tell me the corrective action I should take.

I am using Thunderbird to archive emails to a local folder. I have put emails in separate folders by year. Still, it took a much longer time than I expected. I guess the reason might be synchronization. Often Thunderbird download the same folder, or a set of messages in a folder, repeatedly. It is hard to tell how many messages have a local copy.

One example is showing in the attached picture. It has been stuck there for a long time. Apparently, the progress bars are not drawn correctly. The lower folder is almost done by the number of messages, not the top one.

Thunderbird version: 128.4.1esr. OS: Windows 11.

Recently upgraded from older version to TB 128.3.3.esr

Until then CardDav Server connect (remote adressbook) does not work any more. At least to https://sync.infomaniak.com/. Getting always Connection Failure (interface and logging console). See image. Whatever username is used.

CalDav Connection (to same server) works perfectly. Events get bidirectionally synced.

Anybody an idea, why caldav works, and carddav not.

Thanks for hints an helps. Reto Diener, Switzerland

On Thunderbird I am unable to send or receive messages today, getting message "Failed to connect server imap.gmail.com"

Assisting a friend - she is viewing and composing her emails from thunderbird utilising her gmail account amongst others. Occasionally clicking on the required email reveals a blank message and no attachment if there is one. This randomly happens for inbox and sent messages.

Please see images below:- 1. search result 2 & 3 selecting the required message 4. blank message as described 5. Same message directly in Gmail

Thank you in advance for any help
