Bonjour, je ne retrouve pas dans la version 128.5.1 de Thunderbird l'endroit ou indiquer de laisser les messages sur le serveur. pouvez-vous m'aider la dessus ? Merci Cordialement Francis Malexieux

Long time Thunderbird user here...

This started about 2 days ago. I have changed nothing in my email account settings and MailWasher is able to download all new messages with identical account settings.

When I hit the Get Messages button, an Error Notice appears stating that "Connection to Server <my server details> has been interrupted." This Notice disappears pretty quickly so I can't capture it for you.

What is this referring to and how can I rectify the situation to enable me to receive New Messages? Although MailWasher can receive the new messages Ok, it is not a practical email client with which to manage my email correspondence.

What ever you can do to assist me with rectifying this will be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards, Mal McNelley.

As indicated, when checking messages, indicator shows that imap is being queried but it takes forever to load the messages. This may have been happening in beta 133.xx too.

My account is izak@ibomax.co.za. This is not the first time that I donated but failed to connect and load Thunderbird. Seemed like I was tricked into donating without being able to use the program.

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone else has this problem. I sometimes don't check this email account for a week or two at a time. Every time I start Thunderbird and download mail after days of not checking, it starts filtering mail and then crashes after a few minutes. I have a lot of filters. 169 and growing. Some have multiple addresses to filter. According to the filter log, it crashed after less than 2 minutes of filtering, but it seemed like it was chugging away at filtering longer than that before it crashed. If I restart and download a small number of messages it doesn't crash. If I manually run the filters on the inbox, it doesn't crash. Is there something I can try other than checking mail more often? Thanks!

you meesed up all my accouts i donated still cannot recover all acconts even with gmail please restor all my account or refund my donatiatin its too mucdh for me i have <redacted>@ gmail and <redacted> but not others

Here on Debian 12 with Thunderbird 128.5.0esr, it has become impossible to resize any of the elements in the classic view. I expect that hovering the mouse over the dividers between the various panes will change the pointer type and let me push the dividing lines up and down, or side to side. That just doesn't happen.

Actually, the problem is not limited to the classic view. Resizing anything has just quit working in any and all viewing layouts offered by Thunderbird.

There are some related threads here where people use custom CSS to work around limitations on what proportions can eventually be chosen. That's not my problem. I cannot make _any changes at all_. In the classic view, the pane in which the message text appears is uncomfortably small, but I can see several dozen message subject lines.

The behaviour is the same when I start Thunderbird in safe mode. Are there other non-destructive things worth trying? Thanks.

Thunderbird is our e-mail client. We have a number of e-mail addresses. On one of our computers we can receive but not send on one of our verizon.net e-mail accounts. All of the outgoing server information (except the username is the same for both accounts. When we try to send e-mail from the one account it just hangs and never sends (I eventually cancel sending). We are running Windows 11 Professional on the affected machine. Thunderbird is successfully managing e-mail from multiple e-mail providers. When I had time I looked on-line for solutions, nothing I found worked. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

I had to uninstall and reinstall Thunderbird Mail due to unresolved problems; however, now it never accesses the "Sent Folder". Then it tells me the email has been sent, but it never appears in my inbox.

I hope you can help me because I don't want to lose using Thunderbird Mail. Thank you!

Can no longer view passwords as I get a popup headed "Windows Security" asking for a user name and password. Tried several combination for the various email address without success. This has only happened within the last couple of days. Please advise

After update of TB to 128.4.3est via openSuse (15.5) the calendar no longer displays any events. Is this a settings problem? I read of this problem on Win and MAC but don't see any postings related to Linux. Another post said that events are stored and recoverable. Suggestions appreciated.

I would like to be able to set a retention policy on top (parent) folder and have all the folders below it inherit that policy. Is this doable with Thunderbird? It would also be helpful to be able to turn off inheritance in a child folder if desired.

Thank you Steven Wheeler

Hi there- After a round with ChatGPT and many o' google searches, I still have not found the reason why the text color change tool in the formatting bar in Thunderbird (128.5.1esr) for Mac is not working.

Specifically, I see other HTML formatting working when composing an email, but I do not see any color changes. I have enabled and disabled the formatting bar; changed the sending format between Plain and HTML; unchecked Default Text Colors....and a few more steps I may be forgetting.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I'm running Thunderbird 128.5.1esr (64 bit) on Macos 14.5. The Window menu in Thunderbird (at the top between Tools and Help) displays a list of open messages. I believe it used to list the messages' titles in the list. Not now. Now all it lists is "Mozilla Thunderbird" for each open message. No way to distinguish which message is listed. I tried Troubleshoot Mode... with no effect.

Is there a setting that I need to change to restore what I believe is the old behavior?
