Thunderbird for Android Community Forum

Hello, Thanks for the answer to my previous question, but I read "Import settings and data into Thunderbird for Android" - "How To Import from Thunderbird Desktop". Unfortunately I can't "Scan the QR code from Thunderbird Desktop", nothing happens when I "Align the QR code provided from Thunderbird Desktop". I wish you a good day.

When will TB (or K-9) for ANDROID be able to connect with Hostgator email (IMAP preferably)? I follow the settings for manual set-up that Hostgator provides, and they do NOT work on either of your Android apps. They do work for TB on my desktops (Windows and Linux). And I can use K-9 for other email providers (one of which requiring manual settings set-up too)

It's a known issue on the internet already from my researching.

I called Hostgator, and they said it's a problem on the app side (Mozilla). (Then hung up on me. Smooth.)

Please advise if there's some special setting required. Thx.

Hallo, I have installed the "Thunderbird " app on my smartphone as I already have this programme on my PC. Now I want to export the dat, but I get a message described above

"Bestätigung der Identität" - Überschrift "Windows Sicherheit" mit Eingabe von Benutzername und Kennwort Confirmation of identity- heading windows Security by entering user name and password.

I don´t know the password. Can`t I change the password?

I have now entered all possible variations of passwords, but nothing fits. I have signed in to Microsoft, can still access my account, but no longer use it. This password is not accepted either. So I can`t create the QR code.

Can you help me? Anne Buchholz from germany.

I just switched from Blue Mail to Thunderbird on Android.

First s big thanks for finally making Thunderbird on desktop touch friendly, this was long overdue.

Now to my feature request for thunderbird Android. Please allow (or just enable my default) that the controls to search in mails/delete mails etc are moved to the bottom of the screen so you can easily reach them on as mobile phone (just like blue Mail does it).

Second smaller request: please make the email list less "crowded" somehow the fonts and density are hard to read. Again have a look at blue Mail for how to do this a bit better. Could also be an option.

Is there a way to change font colors and add/remove bold in the signature field?

I tried adding html tags as in Thunderbird desktop but it didn't have any effect.

Hi - it was super-easy to export my settings from Windows and import them into Thunderbird Android. The app is much faster than the Gmail app, I do like it. However, I've got a couple of issues:

- deleting a read email (from my inbox) permanently deletes it, it doesn't go to trash. - It appears that there is no address book for this application. Moreover, I can't find a way to have it look at my Google contacts - so I have to lookup and copy/paste my email recipients. I'm sure I am overlooking something. Other posts suggested something from the ... menu when composing, but I don't see an option to select from (Google) contacts.

Thanks for any assistance!

Hello,

I can't find / activate a print function in Thunderbird

Tunderbird version 8.2 Chrome OS 14541.0.0

I cannot find any references to this in the forums

What do I need to do or install additionally?

Best regards

Hi, I have been a Thunderbird user for 10 years. I recently decided to install the mobile version on Android (Samsung Galaxy 23). Everything went well, I synchronized accounts using QR codes, but I don't know how to synchronize folders with emails. I found a couple of pretty stupid methods on the net using conversion to PDF and uploading them to the phone, but that doesn't work for me. I would like my PC and phone to automatically synchronize and when I receive an email in my inbox, it should be displayed on both devices. Is this possible and if so, how do I achieve it? Thank you in advance for your answer, SEAS

Hope you can help me.

Very best regds Kim

Hello, here’s the problem: I had / have 3 GMX mailboxes in Thunderbird on my PC. After I installed Thunderbird Mobile and spent several hours with it, I deleted all the mailboxes to import them again. Apparently, this also deleted all the mailboxes on GMX, as they are no longer visible there. I also can’t create new ones there, as the old ones seem to still be somewhere in the Background. In Thunderbird Mobile, I restored the mailboxes via import, but they are completely empty! Thunderbird Mobile has no connection to GMX. What can I do? I go to bed...

Hello, I've got the french version of Thunderbird on my laptop. I want to have it now on my smartphone Android. But impossible to find the function "move to mobile" in the parameterss... Please help me !

I'm now using your android version. I'm a bit disappointed, there's still no contact management. A contactless email program...how stupid! Are you planning to do it soon?

I just installed the Android mobile version of Thunderbird. I was wondering if it supports any form/method of SPAM filtering? If so, how do I access/use it?

TIA!
