I have multiple Gmail email accounts and just purchased a Windows 11 computer. Upon installing and opening Thunderbird and adding my accounts, I discovered the first Gmail account inbox does not retain READ emails like it always had before. After reading them, they disappear and are only viewable in the All Mail folder. It seems I can only view UNREAD emails in my first account's inbox. However, the second and third Gmail accounts DO retain READ emails in their inboxes.

In my Google calendar, I have the automatic birthday calendar. The birthdays of people in my (Google) contact list will appear in my calendar. See the first attached image.

In Thunderbird, I have subscribed to my Google calendar (and Google contacts), but birthdays are duplicated in my Thunderbird (Google) calendar. See the second attached image. One birthday appears to be originating from the Google birthday (red) calendar, and one from my main/personal Google (green) calendar (which has two icons that I don't know the meaning of).

Why are birthdays being duplicated in Thunderbird?

In Thunderbird, I can resolve the issue by unchecking the option to 'Sync from <email address>' in the settings for the birthday calendar in my Google account. See the third attached image. This solves the problem for Thunderbird; see the fourth attached image. But then in my Google calendar, birthdays disappear. See the fifth attached image.

Is there a solution that allows the birthdays calendar to be synced correctly in both Google and Thunderbird without showing duplicates and without disappearing?

I can send e-mail through Thunderbird on my laptop but can not receive e-mail. I have checked all of my settings and nothing seems to fix the problem. I am receiving e-mail for that account on other devices on which I do not use Thunderbird. Any suggestions?

When I was using Outlook in the old days, ie before it was 365, I used to take a copy of my OST file and save it as an annual archive, then delete all the folders or contents from my existing, live OST file that I didn't need anymore.

How do I achieve the same with Thunderbird?

I have a bunch of calendar events on different days that I want to move from one calendar to another. When I Ctrl+X (move) then Ctrl+V (paste) it prompts me which calendar to place them in. That works. But it changes the dates.

It seems like because I'm selecting multiple events on multiple days (with the Ctrl key), that it selects the date of the last event selected and pastes all the events from that day.

Can anyone confirm this or offer me another way to do it? TIA

While connected to Wi-Fi, intended recipients do not receive my sent emails. Sent emails are shown sent in the Sent folder both in my desktop Thunderbird client and the web client directly linked to my email server.

My SMTP settings are correct, and when on mobile data, rather than Wi-Fi, emails are received by intended recipients.

I have tested this on multiple networks, with various providers, and have also attempted on a VPN connection to eliminate my IP address as an issue.

I have a few email accounts, so Thunderbird is an ideal client to bring them all together. I have used my Yahoo account with Thunderbird for years now, possibly approaching 20 years, with no problem. However, during the last couple of months I have had problems with the connection such that Thunderbird stalls while accessing Yahoo and I see "Thunderbird not responding". I may even get a "Server has disconnected" message. If I get the latter, then suddenly the situation resolves and the email messages are downloaded. Otherwise, it is just a matter of waiting a couple of minutes until it clears, but it was always instantaneous in the past. Occasionally, I will also get delays when trying to send an email, but generally it is with downloading. Nothing else has changed. The only other change in the past few months has been the verification method for hotmail/live addresses which was not a problem.

Any thoughts? Peter

No emails received since 12/31/24. Normal daily load 50 to 100 emails. Traffic normal up to and including 12/31/24. I had been starting up a cellphone during the no-email period and may have caused the email problem because of confusion with gmail/google settings. I do not use a gmail account, only a Hostgator account, sherm@shermworks.com

My emails are not coming through and says server down but all is correct after techinal support from Star Communications at my account email address cherring@intrstar.net.

Hi Happy New Year I have installed Thunderbird and web translate, but I miss the method like in Outlook where I could right click and have the email translated. In web translate I have to copy the text and have it translated. Is there another method that can make it easier. I also think it is a cumbersome way to add web translate before it is at the top and can be used in Thunderbird. Bruno

Under "Personal Address Book", I have several sub-address books, like "From Mike" and "Local". How do I add a new sub-address book. I guess I did this before but either TB has changed or I cannot remember how to do it.

After starting the PC and launching Thunderbird, a connection to the server is established and the mails are also displayed in the inbox. With every further attempt, whether automatic or manual after starting Thunderbird, no mail is displayed in the taskbar at the bottom. I have switched off Norton 360 and also NordVPN but the problem persists. It also doesn't work when I close and reopen Thunderbird, I need to restart the PC and then it only works once again.

I NEVER use threads but somehow recent folders I create in my local folder for archiving off the imap cloud now automatically are threaded even though in my selected columns to display the thread option is not activated. It seems that a recent updated added this function to new folders I create. How do I turn it off? Thank you.

I'm using Thunderbird on my Windows 10 PC. When i click a link in an email, it won't open in my Brave browser. I have done everything mentioned at the following URL, but it didn't solve the issue. What else can I do? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/hyperlinks-in-messages-not-working
