I've found that some of my emaIls in very latest Thunderbird mail client on Windows 10 have had their content replaced with a phishing email - the title of the email is as per the existing email received yesterday but the content is a phishing email made to look like a contact request from a motor insurance provider that I used years ago and the email is addressed to the email address I used when dealing with said insurance company.  It's only an issue with Thunderbird as the email looks fine on my mobile phone and in Outlook.  Either Thunderbird itself is compromised or one of the installed extensions is compromised.

Has anyone come across a similar issue?

I'm running an antivirus scan but I think I might uninstall and wipe clean Thunderbird if the scan shows no issues.

Hi I've just realised that Thunderbird has been deleting inbox messages from server with IMAP server setting. Is there any way how to turn this off? I would expect this to happen with POP but not with IMAP. Cheers Mike

Hi, I accidently set the email size in the Config editor layout.css.devPixelsPerPix to 125 (instead of 1.25), which results in the program no longer being able to be viewed as it takes up the entire screen.

How can I undo this please, since the reset option is not viewable due to the immense size now.

The tutorial video I followed is this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=klIOX4dsXU4

I appreciate your knowledge, please in simple steps :-)

Thank you, Jana

Hallo und guten Tag,

ich habe für Windows [PC] und Android [Pixel 8pro] jeweils die beiden aktuellsten Versionen von 'Thunderbird x64'und 'Thunderbird: Free Your Inbox' installiert und eingerichtet. Es sind zwei E-Mail-Konten mit jeweils einer Alias-Adresse eingerichtet, alles unter GMX.NET , IMAP+SMTP sind ebenfalls aktiviert [IMAP port993 und SMTP port465]. Leider bekomme ich es nicht so eingerichtet, daß Mails wenn sie am PC oder am Pixel empfangen und verschoben oder gelöscht oder als Spam markiert sind, daß dieses dann auch am jeweils anderen Endgerät so erscheint. Es werden immer wieder alle Mails neu als eingegangene Nachrichten gezeigt und ich muß dann am jeweils anderen Endgerät die gleichen Aktionen vornehmen.

Wo liegt der Fehler, was muß ich tun um das Problem zu beheben.

Dear,

I have a problem with sending emails via Thunderbird desktop platform. Namely, I have set up a Yahoo account, and set the SMTP authentication method to OAuth2, however I still have the issue with sending emails. There's no problem with receiving emails.

Can you help me please?

Hi

I have several different email accounts. All but one are working fine. But my primary account is continuously unresponsive and freezes. This has been going on for several weeks now and today I can't get that account to work at all.

I'm on Windows 11 and have tried re-starting my laptop in Safe Mode but the freezing persists. I've tried turning off Windows Defender - it makes no difference and I don't have any other anti-virus running.

I have 450 emails in my Inbox and don't want to lose any of them or my address book. I do back up each week.

Not very tech savvy and no clue how to sort the issue out.

All help appreciated.

Hi all,

I just set up an email account with POP3 at Thunderbird and enabled leaving messages on the server for, say, 30 days. But if I enable this, all messages stay on the server. I have tried this using my Gmail account, Office365 account, and another provider's email account, but the result is still the same. Do you have any suggestions for this case? Or am I missing any setting?

The reason I need this feature is because I use an email provider with a 2 GB email space limit. I want only the past 30 days of messages that are still on the server to avoid email space being full, meanwhile 30 days at the server to allow user still able to read the past 30 days of email from their mobile phone or web.

After installing the latest Windows 22H2 HOME updates - I cannot run Thunderbird. Blue screen and message - This application will not work on your computer. What to do? MG

My first support request about this was posted on Mon, Nov 18 (8:53 a.m.). I never got a response--probably my fault for posting a minor correction which may have caused everyone else to think someone knowledgeable had responded. I apologize for starting a new thread, but it’s been almost a week now and I really need help. The situation: I get my email via POP, and something got corrupted as a result of doing a backup of TB on Nov 15 using MozBackup. Following advice by Toad-Hall on 11/7/23 to a similar support request, in Troubleshooting Information, inside Profile folder, then in Mail, then in the folder for my server, I renamed “Inbox” as “OldInbox.” A new Inbox and new Inbox.msf got created in Mail > 'my-server.' The new Inbox is 0 KB and is dated to the Nov 14, the evening before I did the MozBackup. The date on the new Inbox.msf keeps advancing. There’s a OldInbox.msf file too, with date that keeps advancing. The new Inbox.msf file doesn’t work or isn’t getting used or some such. When I open TB, Inbox still shows the same old list of emails (now inaccessible) that used to be there and that are now accessible in the folder OldInbox. I still get the error message when I try to Get Messages. TB is still not downloading emails from the mail server. How do I get a functioning Inbox?

For some reason Firefox stopped working with the PlayerLocationCheck App used by the Georgia Lottery. I can still use the https://www.galottery.comweb site by using their phone app or Edge. Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

This has never worked for me on Firefox for iOS, despite trying for over a year, being up-to-date, and following the proper steps listed in the online instructions for how to do this.

First, Firefox for iOS never asks to save passwords, which is a total bummer.

But that aside, it won't even save a new password when I enter it manually. I go to "passwords," hit the + button, enter the login and password. But when I'm done, the screen just quickly flashes, and the new login and info I just entered has not been added. PLEASE FIX THIS!!!

(And please add the feature of asking save new passwords!)

I have the latest version of TB and Windows 11. I cannot edit contacts in either Cardbook or Address Book. In addressbook there are Edit and Delete tabs, but neither work. I have checked permisssions, and nont denied. I have disabled and reenabled Cardbook. Neither helps. Edits made in my gmail contacts are synchronized. It seems I am missing some simple answer, but ----? Your help will be appreciated. John
