The topic that best describes my question is not in the list :-(

I got the dreaded email saying outlook 2007 will stop working in september 2024 but am very confused.

Bit of background, we run a small family partnership and have 20 years of archive .pst files. We use outlook 2007 to store our customers details in the address book along with their order details, customer number etc. Plus we use the calendar for important dates like tax and when to pay suppliers.

We have our own domains (9 in total with several email address for each - about 30 email addresses) which we download the emails from into outlook 2007 so we can store those emails and orders in the .pst file and easily find them again plus archive them each year. Outlook gives us the choice of if the emails should be removed from the server or not - some we do and some we don't for various reasons.

I have downloaded thunderbird as that is what was suggested as a replacement. Tried importing, some things came across and some didn't. Some emails, except those in the sent folder, came across. None of the accounts came across nor the address book. The folder tree was very odd too as all folders were under a folder called "outlook import". I had added my hotmail address when i first opened thunderbird and then added one of our domains emails manually, it showed all the folders in that domain email, that is not really want i wanted, i just want to download the emails in the inbox of our email address. Then i would move it to where it needed to be - orders, customer questions, suppliers emails etc.

I then saw in the help files that i should use the 31 version then upgrade after importing, so i started again.

I started with the address book as that is very important as i have 31k in there. Very little info came across, some were missing names, some missing customer numbers, and it is very difficult to get to the "other" field which contains all their order numbers. With outlook all of that is there when you open a contact AND when you view as a list.

So my questions to start with are .....

1. Which version of thunderbird should i be using to import outlook 2007?

2. How do i get all the contact info over?

3. How can i make the address book interface more user friendly?

4. Is outlook 2007 actually going to stop working for how we work or have i been misled?

Hope someone can help or point me in the direct of other help available. I have already read a lot of the help files, questions and answers and felt so confused i thought i would just ask :-)

I realize that if a file is served with mime type Content-Type: application/pgp-encrypted, then its extension is changed by Firefox on Android to ".pgp". Apparently, Firefox for Android likes to modify extensions based on mime type.

Can this behavior be disabled?

Starting with version 126.0.0, firefox for MacOS stopped creating a defaults/pref folder during installation. If you create it yourself and add the autoconfig.js there, and add firefox.cfg to the root, firefox reads them perfectly and applies the settings. However, if you create folders before the first launch of the browser after installation, the file integrity check fails (see screenshot).

I couldn't find any information about why the folders stopped being created. Maybe someone knows?

The newest article regarding the configuration seems to be this one:

Dear Sir/Madame. I have tried to figure out how to get Mozilla (Firefox) to store my bank card details so I do not need to fill it in over and over again. The information I find on Internet is either from 2020 or do not work. Do you have any solutions to suggest me?

kind regards Henry

Thunderbird and Windows 11 both updated yesterday or today. In several archive folders, messages since about a year ago are now missing. Is there a way to restore to the folder contents as of about 24-48 hours ago? Inbox, Deleted, etc do not seem to be affected.

Whenever I use FaceBook group calls, most of time I am not able to hear other FB users but they can hear me. This typically happens for the 2nd group call in login session. the way I am trying to resolve currently is log off, clear data and history in Firefox browser and then re-login and there is no problem. I do not know why this problem occurs only in Firefox, I do not see this issue in other browsers such as Chrome or Edge. can you please identify the cause and resolve it, it is very irritating. or let me know the solution for this issue.

Your instructions for changing outgoing server settings for Microsoft SMTP server require changing authentication method to OAuth2. Unfortunately this doesn't appear in the drop down menu. I only have No authentication, Norman password, encrypted password, Kerberos/GSSAPI, NTLM. Which of these should I chose instead or how can I get the correct setting to show? Security settings for incoming server settings are fine (ie. OAuth2 can be selected).

Since yesterday, I suddenly cannot receive mail from the office365 server with thunderbird. Authentication passes, but timeout occurs when receiving mail. There is no problem with sending mails. I did not change anything in thunderbird settings yesterday.

[setting] Server Type: POP Server name: outlook.office365.com Port: 995 Connection Protection: SSL/TLS Authentication method: OAuth2

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.
