I've moved my profile folder to a new PC but my address book didn't come across. I've booted up the old computer but all my addresses are gone from TB! Is there a folder I can move to the new PC to correct this?

thanks!

When I use my PC (main device) Thunderbird shows individual mail folders, on my iPad the default mail client as well as individual account folders has an 'All Inboxes' This is very useful as 95% of my mail will go to one account .... so having an 'All folders' account ensures I don't miss a mail arriving on a less used account.

Is there a way to set this up on Thunderbird?

Sehr geehrtes Support-Team,

ich habe ein Problem mit meinem Thunderbird-Konto, das ich bisher nicht lösen konnte. Es geht darum, dass meine aktuellen E-Mails (aus den letzten Wochen und Monaten) nicht mehr angezeigt werden. Ältere E-Mails sind jedoch noch sichtbar.

Ich habe bereits folgende Schritte unternommen, um das Problem zu beheben:

Das betroffene Konto gelöscht und neu eingerichtet. In den Einstellungen überprüft, ob Synchronisation und Speicherplatz korrekt konfiguriert sind. Leider hat dies nichts geändert. Könnten Sie mir bitte mitteilen, wie ich dieses Problem lösen kann?

Vielen Dank für Ihre Unterstützung und liebe Grüße Dave

I have changed my broadband supplier and I am no longer using my old e'mail address. I have gone into thunderbird and updated my account details but when I try to send an e'mail thunderbird is still trying to connect to my old supplier (btinternet). I cannot see a way to change this and would appreciate any help that is offered. I am not even certain that I will be notified if someone puts up a suggestion because I fear that it will be routed to my old e'mail address again.

Hallo Support, ich hatte eine ältere Version, leider ist diese durch Remote-Hilfe von Microsoft zur XBox verloren gegangen. Kann ich einen Link bekommen, so dass ich diese Version wieder installieren kann da ich mit der aktuellen Version dies nicht ereichen kann. Mir freundlichen Grüßen Wolfgang Fischer Mail-Adresse awfisch@t-online.de

Good Morning Thunderbird is not receiving emails from any of my accounts? I have checked all server settings etc and everything is correct. I know my emails are working as I am still receiving them to my mobile device without a problem. Please can you advise if their is a problem with Thunderbird that is the reason behind this?

I am trying to recover an account but am unable get very far with passwords I am unable to remember any previous passwords so just seem to be going round in circles

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!

Hi, I am thinking of converting from MS Outlook (Office365) to Thunderbird. One of the features that I use extensively is Outlook's colour categories, to distinguish between different categories of emails (e.g. client emails, emails relating to infrastructure, etc). This is used for filtering and sorting emails. Does Thunderbird support colour categories for emails and if so, if I use a 3rd party app to convert my OST files to the Thunderbird format (which I understand is MBOX), will the existing categories for my emails from Outlook carry over to Thunderbird?

Please can someone point me to an article which can explain the best working practice for using Thunderbird to managing about 12 Email accounts (not all gmail).

I have used T/B for years and i have slowly accumulated so many emails that I am getting bogged down trying to manage it all.

Each account has several folders.

I have quick folders and quick filters installed.

I have played with Quick filters but my inbox keeps filling up

• "Home" Account inbox,which I'm trying to migrate from, has 25K emails
• 4 accounts have inboxes with 1K to 4K emails

I seriously need to change my working practice! Can you help.

Not sure if archiving will help as i suspect it moves the storage issues (which I don't have .....yet) from one part of the disk to another.

HELP HELP I'm drowing in emails! I've not finished with my life yet to be killed off by emails..!!! :)

Hello, Each time i log in to Thunderbird, a window opens saying “Mozilla Thunderbird Email wants to access your google account”. So I click on "allow" and I receive a message on my phone to which I reply "yes it was me" but it happens several times each time Thunderbird connects. Any idea? Many thanks Bastien from France Bastienpelenc@mailo.com

I can check incoming mail via acsalaska.net [Firefox] + usually also on Thunderbird/Inbox - not now, I managed to mess with the connection between these two - incoming mail does not show on Thunderbird for some reason
