Thunderbird Community Forum

I had to delete one of my email accounts and reenter it. Now when I send an email from that account the copy goes into another account sent box. I have checked both accounts and everything looks good

I know the mail server I use has many more years of email messages saved in the inbox than I can get to display when using thunderbird. The thunderbird inbox seems to limit to about the last 2 years of messages. How do I get to earlier messages? Many thanks for your help.

I am trying to apply this filter but unsucssesfylly. I am looking for a exact number that appears in the message, to move the e-mail to a specific folder. I've already checked usind CTRL+F and it appears. Any suggestion? Here are some pictures.

thunderbird version 2024 - toolbar customization: missing: "delete" and "junk"

Dear ,

we send a note as i handle average day, some 1000 emails in thunderbird.

for handling this , we use thunderbird last 10 years, where as the mail toolbar is:

previous - next - (delete ) - (junk )

In all versions up to 2023 , we would install above 4 (four ) settings on one line after each other.

In the new version from 2024 , the settings between: ( ) , are no longer in the main possibilies, but

we must use these settings on the line under; which takes far more time than all on one line.

Is it possible to have the ( ) settings, in the next new version , back again , like before ??

Nice greetings,

I am getting very frustrated with the junk mail. I have very important emails ending up in junk. They aren't marked as junk but they are still being put in junk. Most are in my address book so shouldn't be there at all. Even when I mark them as not junk, they still get put in junk. I've reset the adaptive junk and it makes no difference. I've even turned off all junk settings and they still go into junk! I'm totally at a loss as to what to do. Please, can someone help? I'm seriously considering giving up on Thunderbird and using a different email client.

I am dislexic and sometime mis-type the destination domain address. Can I get Thunderbird to check the domain exists before sending it to the mail server? I can't find an addon to do this. Sometimes there is a considerable wait before I get an error message back.

As secretary of a bridge club I use "replay to" very frequently. To my surprise it behaves funny with version 128.4.2. When send to recipients and replaying to the recieved email I see the screen where another account signature is used and the replay is not filled in. As this is send to about 100 people its not nice. Hope you can fix this.

With Sequoia released - the "Writing Tools" invoking Apple's AI are available in most apps now via the context menu (e.g. select a paragraph/block of text and right-click and the context menu or menu bar shows the menu entry "Writing Tools" wherein you can get the Apple AI ecosystem to rewrite, proofread etc - however this is not available yet in Thunderbird 128.4.2 when composing/editing an email.

See the screenshot below - I'm writing this using Safari and it's available here - even for this little message...

I appreciate this is a North American facility at present and you have to fully enable US English on your Mac and then enable "Apple Intelligence" in system settings...but once you have done this, the facility is available in most apps unless the API chosen doesn't support it.

Any thoughts if / when Thunderbird might get updated to use the API to invoke or enable this?

If I can think of the one writing app where I spend most of my time, it's eMail.....while it's true I can select a paragraph and pop it over to Notes via copy-paste, invoke the AI there and paste it back - that's not as convenient.

thoughts....jc

I've looked at other people having the same problem. When I delete an email, the one next to it gets deleted also. This has been going on for some time now. I've lost an important email to this problem. Somehow it needs to just target one email, not any others.I'm using a mouse with a cord at my desktop. The menu at the left expands sometimes, when I don't mean it to do that.

Hi there! When I opened the thunderbird in the morning, I don't know if i clicked the wrong button, all my emails and the folder i set was gone, now it just shows the initial folder with only the emails I received today. When I use the search engine to search, it still shows a search result in which I can see the first few lines of emails I received in the past, but when I try to click into it to check details, it's empty, I couldn't see any content. What has happened and how can I fix this? Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I recently moved Thunderbird to a different Hardrive on my PC and after importing my old Profile, it only shows emails I've Replied/Forwarded to in my Sent Messages Folder.

How do I get the messages I've sent, as well as folders I've archived?

Thank you.

I was having some issues with emails in Thunderbird looking encrypted and I was told repairing the folder it was in could fix that. So I did that and it did fix the issue.

Then I was having issues with my sent email folder. I had emails in that folder going back to 2018 because I like to keep everything just in case I need to reference it for some reason. I email a lot and so there were probably 13-14,000 emails.

It took a day or two to repair the sent email inbox and I couldn't hardly use my email at all while that was occurring because every time I would click on something, it would take 30-40 seconds to open it.

Now, every time I send an email, my thunderbird freezes and becomes unresponsive until the email is copied into the sent email folder.

It thankfully doesn't freeze as long this time and is still usable, any help on correcting this?

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.
