a lot of my emails have parts of the email overlapping each other, can we get an option to have the emails auto fit? I have the latest version of Thunderbird on mobile.

Hello! When scrolling through messages, the subject, sender and recipient parts disappear. They appear temporarily when I tap on the icons or blank areas at the top, but disappear again when I scroll. This happens with both plain text and HTML emails, but only some HTML emails display fine. I can't find any other similar questions, so I wonder if this problem is unique to my environment? If so, I'll wait until I buy a new smartphone. Please give me some advice.

Thunderbird for Android 8.2 OPPO AX7 (Android OS 8.1), Japanese

Is it possible to have the number of unread emails in the Inbox show on the Thunderbird icon in the Windows 10 Taskbar? This would be very convenient and avoids the need to keep opening up TB to check. I recently tried eM Client, which had this feature, but, returned to TB to avoid other dislikes I found in eM. Thanks in anticipation Robs

I wrote an email then clicked on "Attach" (same happens if I click "Add attachment"), I got an error message that stated that a completely unrelated directory did not exist. There was no way to get round this, so I could not add the attachment. I eventually worked out that the directory had been used for an attachment on a previous unrelated email. That directory had since been deleted. I created another directory of the same name and the attachment process worked. When attaching, Thunderbird seems to default to the most recently used directory, if it no longer exists the attachment process fails and there is no way round it.

I recently tried moving a backed up Thunderbird profile to a new computer, and everything transferred over perfectly, except that when the app tries to connect to my Outlook account, the OAuth window that appears is completely blank, with nothing to click or input (just a grey background), and so I essentially can't use the account.

I have used the same backup on another computer successfully (the Outlook OAuth window appeared correctly), and my other Gmail account that is part of the backup and also requires OAuth works fine on this new computer. I've also tried starting Thunderbird without the backed up profile, as if I was just connecting my Outlook account from scratch, and the window appears correctly there too, but I'd really rather not have to reconfigure everything from scratch...

I'm guessing something in my backup doesn't play well with OAuth settings on this computer, any idea where I should look? Thanks for any input!

I have lost all e-mails from 2024 except for the last 2 days. when I tried to retrieve them from the 2024 archives they disappeared? I have lost them on my phone and my computer, but they are still on my husbands phone. What on earth happened and how do I fix it and how do I retrieve the e-mails. This is a business and all e-mails are very important.

I had to change one of my email accounts due to a possible compromise of the password, I am now unable to receive or send messages on this particular account, so I would please love some help to resolve this problem, thank you

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.

Since around time of last Thunderbird update, can only see a few of the current day's emails, instead of all of them as they come in. (I can see them all on my Android phone, which is how I know what I'm missing on my desktop Thunderbird.)

Cannot send emails.

Following message appears:

Send Message Error Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: Authentication is required for relay. Please check the message recipient xxxxxxxx@xxxxxxx.com and try again.

Apparently I just moved on Thunderbird 128.5.2esr, and now do not receive updates in my inbox or sent folders. The message on which Thunderbird seems blocked is "checking mail server capabilities." I use IMAP on port 143 with starttls and normal password Any help or suggestions available? Thanks.

I have recently updated to TB 128.5.3esr (64-bit) This occurred by the Microsoft Store 'update' feature automatically. Before this occurred, I was able to mark email messages with Tags that I had previous set up but it now appears that even when selecting an appropriate Tag for a particular message, whilst it initially 'coulors' it in accordance with the pre-defined colour, when my cursor is removed from the email message, the Tag is lost [and colouring]! Even when attempting to sort messages by Tags, none appear at all.... I have in my TB a number of different email accounts namely, Apple ones [x3], Hotmail [Outlook now] and Gmail and yet none of them seem to support [or retain] Tags anymore as they once did. Previous TB versions enabled me to use this feature - is there a good reason why it no longer works? Lastly, whilst I don't really know what a 'sandbox' is, I installed TB from the Microsoft Store in the hope that it would remain automatically updated - was this a mistake? Lastly this may assist TB experts of which I am most definitely not one, sadly....

128.5.2esr (64-bit) Release notes Thunderbird Windows MSIX packagethunderbird-MSIX - 1.0

Since Thunderbird updated to 128.5.2 I have not been able to receive or send emails using my provider, Spintel. I have spent 6 hours over 4 sessions on the phone to Spintel. They cannot resolve the problem and told me to contact Thunderbird. Do I need to change POP3 and SMTP settings to work with Thunderbird's latest update?

This happened once before, then started working again for a few months and now doing it again. When I start up Thunderbird the emails will not load. I keeps saying "not responding." After around five minutes or so a couple of emails will load and then it's back to "not responding." Then another few or more minutes of waiting and another couple of emails download and back to "not responding." This goes on for hours. Tonight I have been waiting for eight hours and I'm still waiting with no end in sight. I can't do anything else with email until it finishes. This is very frustrating. Can you help?

Hi, in order to avoid problems with the view of emails, I repaired the folder of my emails configured as imap. During this process, all emails were reloaded from my provider. so far so good. But the dates of the emails now have all the time& date of today. Changing the sort order from date to received didn't change anything. By using CTRL-U I could see the correct dates: extract:

I've downloaded Thunderbird and can see my main Gmail account but now need to add a second Gmail. Could someone please advise me how I go about this? Many thanks........Joe

Is there a way to get the archive button to show on top of the individual message view, next to delete? Having to click Three Dots > Refile > Archive is a bit onerous. If not, can I submit a feature request to be able to enable that?

Hi

I am getting the "Unable to Login at Server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password" message for my outlook and gmail accounts. My passwords and user names / mail address are correct. Thunderbird has tested the configurations and picked them up from the servers.

I have used the outlook app on my windows 11 system and have immediate success with the same credentials. I really don't want to use Outlook but am feeling forced to do so as there is no clear help on how to get Thunderbird to work. It has worked previously on the same laptop without any fuss.

Please help!
