Please, I need help. Bear with me while I describe the problem.

Let's say I have two email accounts set up, user1 and user2. Each one has been set up for quite some time and both have worked as expected for years. If I send an email from user1 a copy of the message drops in the sent folder of user1 and the reply comes back to user1, and if I send an email from user2 a copy of the message drops in the sent folder of user2 and the reply comes back to user2. Not any longer.

Now, if I send an email from user1, a copy of the message drops in the sent folder of user1 and the copy clearly says it was sent from user1's email. However, the reply comes back to user2's email inbox. The source of the message clearly shows it was sent TO: user2, Delivered-To: user2, Received: from line says it is for <user2>.

This has been going on since the latter part of last year.

I'm experiencing a recurring issue with Thunderbird. After running for a few minutes, it freezes and displays "Not Responding." The only way to fix it is to close the program and restart it, but the issue happens again after a short while.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

   Updated to the latest version.
   Tested in Safe Mode (issue persists).
   Disabled antivirus (Bitdefender) to rule out interference.
   Cleared startup cache.
   Reinstalled Thunderbird and restored profiles manually.

Reinstalling solved the issue temporarily, and Thunderbird stopped freezing. However, the problem returned after I imported all my email accounts!!!

I’d appreciate any guidance on how to resolve this!

Thanks in advance!

I have all of my emails in IMAP folders. When I travel I don't always have internet access. It would be helpful to have access to work-related emails at those times. Two questions:

(1) Is it possible to store emails in both IMAP and local folders so I can access them offline?

(2) Is there some setting that can automatically store all emails in IMAP and local folders?

Thanks for your help!

Starting from a few weeks ago, incoming messages written in HTML no longer display the HTML. As far as I know, I have not changed any relevant settings. I do my own mail in plain text, but I still like to be able to display HTML-based messages properly. My Thunderbird is running on windows 10.

i am trying to set up Thunderbird as a desktop client so that I can have my forwarded email from Spectrum. Nothing I do has set up the account, in spite of using all settings given to me by several help attempts. I've only had this problem when Outlook quit working and haven't been able to sort out the problem. The connection can never be made using details provided by Spectrum.

Email via v102.??? imap portable noninstallation: looking at a message list, when deleting 1 or many, system locks up ; sometimes up to several minutes.. Thank you for help. Howard

I have almost 10 000 messages and now suddenly only the subject of emails older than two years can be read, all the contents have disappeared. What to do? I really need to see some of these messages.

I recently upgraded from Thunderbird 116 to 128 on Kubuntu 22.04, since then it has crashed at least once every day.

For some reason it is unable to send a crash report, instead I get the attached window pop up.

Hello!

I fell like since the last update of Thunderbird (128.5.2esr (64 bits) ), I have a problem when I filter messages. Only messages older than a certain date appear, the most recent ones do not appear. I have to go and find them by scrolling in the mail history. Is there a way to change the settings so that this bug is resolved?

Thank you in advance for your help :)

Thunderbird prompted me to empty and compact my emails. I'm set to compact when it will save 400MB of space. The past couple of times that I have gone through the process when I click "Empty Trash" it shows it happening instantaneously. That is new. Then when I click on Compact it tells me 0 MB saved. Yet when I empty my Junk box it tells me the little amount I saved when I compact. It seems like something is wrong here. Any ideas?

we use Thunderbird for emails on my work, while I was at working from home, colleague made that all the mails i get automatically send to my private g mail. It was good while i was working from home, but now I'm back in the office, and don't need work mails on my private g mail. how to disable that function on Thunderbird app?

I followed the directions the directions to export and then import my settings to an Android device (this is my first time using a mobile device). I took pictures of the QR codes. I was next told, "Align the QR code provided from Thunderbird Desktop." What does that mean and how do I do it?

I have said this before when will THREADS become an option to apply and not be automatically applied. I just set up a new subfolder and THREADS were automatically applied and again I can not get rid of the blighters. They drive me mad with frustration.
