I'm trying to reduce size of TB Profile folder (2.45GB) I observe that my TB Profile, Imap.Mail folder contains two folders for Yahoo.com, one of which I suspect is unnecessary.

- imap.mail.yahoo.com 27 MB

- imap.mail.yahoo-1.com 2.29 GB. This folder has the more recent "Date Modified" date.

Please see screenshot. No problems with TB operations.

Can one of these be deleted? Which one? How? (i.e., any re-naming involved?)

Thank You

Roger

I have contacts on my iPhone and Macbook Catalina. I have a newer PC (Lenovo Yoga one year old) but was using Mail until this fall; then I stopped having access to Mail or Outlook when new Outlook became the only supported mail app on my PC . I cannot open Outlook because I did not pay for a 365 subscription. I installed Thunderbird, but the PC will not admit to having an address book or contacts any more. I do have contacts in iCloud, and can open iCloud Drive on my PC, but contacts are not accessible through iCloud Drive directly but through iCloud and only through Outlook which is nonfunctioning. I do have iCloud sharing on for my contacts. After trying to import into THunderbird unsuccessfuly, I tried also dragging contacts out of iCLoud onto my desktop. But that ended up with a png file with a random seeming name.

Even if there is no syncing I would like at least a one time transfer of my contacts to my PC, in a way that Thunderbird can use them. Any ideas - other than subscribing to365??

Hello! I have two Gmail addresses, the main one [A] with very little space left, and a second, new one [B] almost empty where I'd like to archive a lot of the first address's emails and label them. I add them both to Thunderbird and subscribe to all folders, including "All Mail" and all labels/sub-folders. My process is to select a mail in the "All Mail" folder of [A], then move it (not copy) straight up into a label folder of [B]. This way, the mail doesn't exist anymore in [A], and only exists in [B], all of this done in one simple & quick operation.

After a few tryouts, I realize that if I use "Move To", or if I drag an drop an email from A to B, the mail is actually copied into B and still stays in A. I then have to delete it from A manually.

Is there any procedure that will allow me to cut/paste emails more easily between both accounts?

Thank you greatly, all! :-)

When placing an order online, with Amazon for example, to verify ID a code is sent to my phone and is received instantly. Them a code is sent to my email address. I don't receive the email until much later that day or even the next day. Therefore, I can't complete the order, so all I have done is waste time. Is there something that has to be changed so that I can receive emails within a couple of minutes so I can resume ordering from Amazon. Temu and others?

I have had a Chromebook for about four months and I installed Thunderbird using Linux and it worked really well then I started having issues. I started composing an email the decided to cancel it by clicking on the cross on the top right of the email normally a box would open giving three options but all I get is a small white banner with a cross ! I then had to press enter to close the email I didn't want. I reinstalled Thunderbird and installed my old PostOffice/TalkTalk email with no issues but I can't install my Hotmail email and when I keep being told my details are wrong but they are not. Is this because the 0Auth2 verification ! I am a technophobe so don't have a clue what to do. Is the 0Auth2 provided by Microsoft ( My Hotmail ) or is this something to do with Thunderbird I have tried to find answers but have just been going around in circles. Can you point me in the right direction or should I just give up on Thunderbird !

Thanks for your time.

I have a number of accounts putting mail into a "Local Folders" inbox. When sending a new email or replying the same account linked to local folders is always listed as the sending address even if I am replying to an email sent to a different address.Of course I can change to sending address but I would prefer it to use the sending address to which the original email was sent. I would also like a different default sending address to be used for a new message. In the accounts setting tab the address being used as the default has a gold star by its name. I assume that is the marker showing it is the default. How do I change this to a different account?

Hi,

I have finally managed to escape MS 365 and wanted to use Apple Mail. Having problems with that so I set up Thunderbird (TB).

Now all of a sudden all I get is a blank white screen with the spinning Apple beach ball. Forever.

I have done all the usual things, computer on and off again, reinstall the TB app etc.

The TB dock icon shows there is mail but I cannot get to it.

I did search Google and this forum but only found a closed thread with no solution.

Any help would be appreciated :-)
