Outlook.office.com not refreshing automatically anymore and requires browser refresh to show new e-mails, etc... Works in Edge and Chrome just fine. Had this issue years ago and issue self-resolved, so unsure what resolution was then.

I have a profile that started on a PC and moved to Mac (Sonoma). I now want to put on another Mac from a backup. I have tried linking to the old profile using Profile Information. I click Create A New Profile and highlight the old profile after moving it into the User>Library Profile Folder, but I only get a new profile and not a link to the saved profile. What am I not doing or not doing right.

Also, in the past, there were two items in the Library>Thunderbird folder showing links to the profiles automatically installed when the program was installed. These had to be removed when installing my own existing profile. Those install links are not present. I'm attaching a screenshot of the T-bird folder.

Thank you.

When I open a new tab in Firefox, the weather widget shows on the top left. The location is wrong. I see that I can turn it off, but is there a way to customize the location by zip code? If not, can this be added? I use VPN most of the time, and maybe this is the reason this is wrong?

In the latest automatic update of Thunderbird to version 128.0 messages keep the headline in boldface even after being read, which didn't happen in previous versions. I wonder if there's a possibility of roll-back this change or customize it in settings?

I am using Thunderbird 128, and by default if a message has a tag it just shows an icon in the Cards view - how can I change it to show the actual tag name(s)?

I can enable a column for this in Table View, but I prefer to do this in the Cards View.

Hi

When I select the "History" option it doesn't go any further. The "Bookmarks" and "Downloads" options are working as normal. Th e problem has been for 24 hours.

Thanks Gareth

Hi

I've been using Thunderbird for years with no issues. It's set up using IMAP and downloads emails from the web from my ISP. I have several different email account with my ISP. They are all set up to download to Thunderbird. All but one is working fine.

My primary email, however, is only downloading intermittently. It downloads all my emails on start up, then doesn't download any more unless I close Thunderbird and re-open. This is a new issue. Nothing has changed in my set up which is configured identically for all my email address (and the others are working fine).

I have been getting some spam/phish emails using Display Name Spoofing of some senders I recognize.

In each case the display name is in my personal address book, but the email address of this spam does not match and is different each time. The people being spoofed are aware this is going on but since the spam emails do not originate from their PCs or sometimes not even their ISPs, there isn't any easy fix on their end.

It would be useful to have an inbox filter that would check the personal address book for known display names and made sure the email address matched. Just highlighting a mismatch would be helpful.

Just about every day I need to create a new Thunderbird favorite on the Ubuntu dock. The previously created favorite does launch Thunderbird but another icon appears at the bottom, resulting in two Thunderbird icons in the dock. Is this an indication that I might have a virus or other malware. Is there a way to fix this? Thank you for your time. Thunderbird 115.12.2 (64-bit) Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS

I use Thunderbird on multiple servers as an IMAP client. I update TB automatically. I sometimes get multiple copies of emails. They usually are in boxes into which I move emails automatically with rules, but occasionally in my inbox as well. I have not yet seen any duplicates in my sent mail on any server.

Can you tell me likely causes? One of the problems we are having is occasional loss of internet signal (I guess we're at the end of the web :)) so could this be a manifestation of that problem? If I run a duplicate check, the program will identify all as duplicates.

If it were connection only, I'd expect to sometimes get 3 or more copies as well, but I only get two.

Is there a fix for this annoyance? It happens mostly on yahoo! (the only email on which I run filters, but also the one that I notice sometimes that it takes forever to save an outgoing or draft message) but occasionally I have seen it on gmail server and Microsoft 365 server as well.

Webmail shows no duplicates on any server.

I have cleared the index files, etc but that does not seem to be the solution. This is intermittent, which is why I am thinking it may be an intermittent internet problem.

I'd like for it to not happen, so is this a possible problem to fix in Thunderbird?

Thanks,

Russ
