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.

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!

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

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?

"..... because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space, and that you have write privileges to the file system, then try again." Hi, I have two gmail accounts and I've been having difficulty compacting folders for the last couple of days. Both of them are IMAP accounts, and I typically keep them clean and prefer to save my emails in local folders. I have tried deleting the email accounts on thunderbird and re-adding them. It worked for about 24 hours and I am getting the same message again. Running as administrator has not solved the problem. Thanks for the help, Ron

Every few days I get a Can't load XPcom error when trying to launch Thunderbird. I know how to fix this problem when it occurs (manually delete T'bird from Programs, download and install latest version), but every few days it occurs again, which is getting tiring. How can I fix this so the error won't occur, at least not so often?

See topic subject...but basically used to have a handy little attachment link at the bottom of the email preview pane...now its gone since latest update..

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks for any help on this.

I've got a weird display problem that started yesterday. As I scroll along my messages list, characters start blanking. Where the blanking occurs changes as I scroll.

Screen shot attached.

A brief run with Thunderbird in safe mode doesn't seem to have this problem, but I have zero extensions installed.

Thunderbird is the only APP I have noticed this on.

hi,after the installation of a theme in my tb nebula, i see it above, but all my mails, all tb , have a black underground.i tried a few others themes , and its always the black underground. Why does a theme interfere in the background? how can i install a theme that i can see only above, without making the background?

I've been using Thunderbird for a very long time, supporting it's development with modest contribution. Until recently everything went smoothly when sending a message (I use 2 email accounts). However since a couple of weeks, there seems to be a delay when ever I send an email. Usually I was able to send a mail and keep working through my other mails. But this seems not to be the case anymore; Once I've clicked on sent (which is instant) I wanna to work/read other emails a message appears (TB does not reply anymore) and then only 5 seconds later I can keep scrooling through my list. It's strange. Any idea where this comes from. Many thanks for your answers. Stefan

Not responding message after each time sending an email, I have to wait a while as it freezes every time. Safe mode does the same. It is all up to date also. I use imap.mail.eu-west-.......
