I have tried global settings and the settings in Thunderbird but whenever i reply to a message the text is very small. I can enlarge it but have to do it for each message... Help! Please...

Hello,

I hope you're doing well. I'm a faitthfull supporter of mozzila and thunderbird, so happy to have the app thunderbird now - thanks for that :) I'm using thunderbird to access my outlook adress since years. But, few weeks ago I can't send mail anymore (still receiving it) via thunderbird. I tried a lot of solutions, checked online the [[topic Microsoft OAuth Authentication and Thunderbird in 2024|https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/microsoft-oauth-authentication-and-thunderbird-202?_gl=1*pm7jt7*_ga*MzEzODU1MDYyLjE2ODkyMzY3NTE.*_ga_R3H4BDP5J2*MTczNDk2ODU4Mi4xLjAuMTczNDk2ODU4Mi4wLjAuMA..]] topic

But still nothing, I'm beginning to despair and I don't want stop using thunderbird but it's become really anoying. Can you help me please?

thanks and merry christmas ! Yo

When trying to send emails from Thunderbird, I either get an error message that they have timed out, or that the server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections. This problem started out of the blue on Friday 20th Dec. I can send emails by logging into my email provider 123-Reg without any problem. Any help appreciated.

Hi,

I have changed from Norton to McAfee for virus checker on tower PC. =McAfee does not recognise Thunderbird as a safe product, so it will not allow access to it for downloading and sending emails unless I switch off VPN. Why should this be? Why does McAfee see the Thunderbird program as a threat?

If anybody else encountered the same problem what can Thunderbird program writers/ managers do to change the situation? I am very happy with Thunderbird and don't want to change from it.

If necessary will ditch McAfee but having paid for a year protection oath to do it.

Regards,

Jim

Just what the subject line says. Go looking for something and Search doesn't find it. Even after I remember the email and find it, Search does not find it.

Why is this? It is un-usable, actually as it happens all the time.

For instance, putting in a company name like "walmart.com" will find some but not all the emails with walmart.com and certainly not the most recent ones specifically with a person's name.

Just wondering why when I organize/delete my emails in TB (have several accounts in there) my profile size does not go down but always up? Should I be refreshing or something like that?

Open in Conversation no longer an option in Thunderbird 128.5.2esr. The shortcut, shift control O, does not work anymore either.

Is there an add-on that will restore this essential bit of functionality?

Recently forced to update MAC OS to Big Sur, then Thunderbird stopped connecting. Thunderbird asks for a password that i enter correctly (works when directly logging into Gandi) but will not accept. No option on entering user name, just password. Contact@kencorm.org

Also, I payed for years and I'm getting pay or account will close 25 Jan 2025...

Thank you, Ken Cormier

One of my email addresses, which I haven´t used for a month or so, has stopped sending messages. I am told to check my SMTP settings. Incoming messages are being received. The server is smtp.office365.com I am using port 587, as recommended by the Outlook site. I was using 465. I have restarted the pc since making the change. The email address is ....@outlook.com Settings are: SSL/TLS OAuth2

I am using WIndows11

I cant find any useful advice on the Outlook site.

Any suggestions ?

Thunderbird won't remember where it was last time (windows 10 and 11). Every time I open it, it has shifted and resized a bit from the last time. It's not one monitor to another or even the other side of one screen, but it's always slightly higher or lower, slightly smaller or larger... It's just driving me nuts because everything else is perfectly positioned. Note that I am using fancy zones to do this placement, but everything else works fine.

I am having a problem syncing my Thunderbird folders with iCloud. Every time I have to explicitly check that I want to subscribe to all IMAP folders in my iCloud account. Then after a short while a lot of folders get unsubscribed and I have to subscribe them again. I have experienced this instability with both Thunderbird and Betterbird as well as on Windows 10 and Pop_OS! 22.04. More people have reported the same issue, but no solutions have been shared:

• https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1444029

Does anyone know how can I fix this?

Witam.

Przy próbie dodania konta email w aplikacji Thunderbird wyskakuje komunikat błędnym haśle, loginie lub ustawieniach. Na innym PC wszystko działa a na tym konkretnym nie chce. Dodam że jest tu system Windows Serwer 2022. Czy to on może sprawiać problem?

In de nieuwste Thunderbird versie zie je een bericht en daarna het antwoord gegroepeerd worden. Dit wil ik uitschakelen en diverse artikelen hierover gelezen. Echter, het werkt niet. Als ik het vinkje voor "conversaties" uitzet en toepas op "kolommen"en ook geprobeerd op "Huidige weergave", dat blijven de emails samengevoegd staan, heel irritant.

Is dit ergens anders aan te passen zodat je het antwoord gewoon als apart bericht ziet bovenaan? Ik draai Windows 11 en via IMAP.

Impossible d'enregistrer mon compte "hotmail.com" dans thunderbird. "erreur identifiant ou mot de passe" alors que ceux ci sont justes (vérifiés sur le site outlook). Quelle solution ? Merci

This is a specific problem that started a few days ago. I sync between my Mac and my iPhone. It's worked perfectly for years, and still does so with two (iCloud, Gmail) of my three accounts. With the Thunderbird account, however, when I delete a message on my Mac, the message is not deleted on my phone. If I delete a message on my phone, sync works and the message is deleted on my Mac.

After months of constant Thunderbird crashes and hundreds of crash reports, and as many attempts at trying to resolve the issue but without any resolution, I am now getting the following message when Thunderbird crashes:

Thunderbird had a problem and crashed. Unfortunately the crash reporter is unable to submit a report for this crash.

Details: Expected value at line 1 column 1

I have version 128.5.2esr installed, but the issues started well before this version you can see the information in the crash reports if you want to look at them. I have tried Troubleshooting Mode, and can confirm the issue persists. I have also noticed that the one IMAP account I have attempts to redownload all messages from the mail server - it never completes because Thunderbird always crashes first. Aside from the obvious request for troubleshooting suggestions on the primary crash issue, I have three additional questions:

1. Is there a way for me to isolate that IMAP account, in another profile or such, to see if that account or server is contributing to the issue?

2. How is the crash report interpreted - i.e. where do I look to see the actual cause of the crash? In the "Details" tab the CRASH REASON and CRASH ADDRESS are not very informative to the average user.

3. What is the best way to provide a list of crash reports - I've had nearly 30 over the past few days, and - literally - hundreds since the issue began in October (which did not appear to coincide with anything in particular - e.g. new hardware or software, or TB update. Is is acceptable to post a list in the body of this thread, or as a txt document, or .... ?

BTW, running this on a Windows 10 22H2 machine, i9-14900KS, 32Gb DDR5, previously nVidia Quadro P5000 now Intel Arc A770 Graphics. Yes, have tried rebuilding POP3 folders, and yes I have a backup of my profile, which is about 35Gb in size.

TIA

The Inbox show have 1 message,but the dialog cant display message. when i use [search message] in inbox ,the message can display. Thanks,Have a good Day! Richard Lee

Dear community,

I have decided and will stick with Mozilla Thunderbird, with hopefully future support for important and established standards such as IMAP, Card DAV, Cal DAV and so on. Apart from the other free providers, I have also spent a long time studying the many options and settings of this client. Very few seem oversized or inappropriate. Very nice, minimalist design and functional! Some people should be ashamed of what they complain and demand. I am a big fan of my own domains and emails from established hosting platforms. Email is more important to me than social media and messaging apps. I really appreciate your work. This is not about annoying advertising and money, but about passion and commitment. You guys make me happy. Thank you.
