Thunderbird Community Forum

Hello since some days the connection to the pop3s.bluewin.ch (Port 995) ist AUTOMATICALLY reset. (message on the screen) I can't receive ANY message on this account. IN outlook I get mails on this account. On the provider Website (BLUEWIN) I get mails.

MY set up is pop3s,bluewin.ch Port 995

This is a long lasting account, since I started mailing, so its quite big.

Sometimes my Thunderbird Inbox (or some other folder) is empty, and it's Properties Location is empty. I've found nothing to fix that except to close Thunderbird and reopen it; sometimes needing to wait a few or several minutes before reopening it. That's always (finally) worked, but I guess I'm concerned that one time it won't work. What could be causing that?

All my email accounts are hosted at siteground. I recently created a new domain, website, and two email addresses there. Siteground support tested the new email addresses and said they work fine. But when trying to set up these new email accounts in Thunderbird - 128.5.2esr (32-bit) - I keep getting error messages. I know the passwords are correct because I checked them in Settings. After the first step in setup, I always get "Configuration found at email provider". If I click "Done", I get "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password". If I click "Configure manually" and then "Re-test", I get "Thunderbird failed to find the settings for your email account".

Thunderbird 128.5.2esr (32-bit) Odd problem in that just one folder was being identified as not being able to be compacted because of Disk Space....not true, plenty of space as I keep it regularly cleaned. I can clear the issue by making another folder of a different name, copying all messages to that folder then running COMPACT on the new folder and nothing is amiss. Run it on the original problem folder and no issues. Delete the original folder and create another with the same old name and transfer the messages to the now new originally named folder. Delete the TEMP folder. Then run a COMPACT on the problem folder and no issues.

Then run compact on the whole message tree and sure enough the COMPACT issue has now moved to a different folder. I suspect you could chase this thing till the cows come home but won't resolve, just moves it from folder to folder.

Now I could just kill Thunderbird and reinstall but this is intriging. Not sure if that would help. Ran TROUBLESHOOT MODE clean with out the only extension I use and no change. Stumped.

Thanks!

I have this iMac and a MacBook pro. This iMac is not able to receive emails for the past 2 days. My MacBook has no problems. I have tried to troubleshoot with Apple since I have a service contract with them. However, they were not able to help. Apple suggested that I perhaps delete Thunderbird from this iMac and start over, but I would like to avoid that if possible. My internet service provider is Dreamhost. Do you have any suggestions on how to proceed?

Kia ora from Liz in NZ. My thunderbird email crashed 3 weeks ago and is still not working and I don't know what to do. I would be grateful of any help. At present I am getting some emails through surge web but it means I cannot get the emails that I saved in folders under Thunderbird. So you can send an email to xxx@farmside.co.nz Kind regards Liz Heenan

For two weeks now, I've been receiving the following error message whenever I open Thunderbird: "Unable to open folder inbox on xxxxx@earthlink.net because it is in use by some other operation. Please wait for that operation to finish and then select the folder again." I have no idea what operation it may be referring to. I still get this message if Thunderbird is the first thing I open when I turn the computer on. I can see my email on Earthlink, but it is a very awkward program, with no way to mark email important, and other problems. For years I've had messages automatically downloaded to Thunderbird, and this problem never happened before. Other details: I am able to send messages on Thunderbird. I am using an older computer with Windows 10. Thank you! Paul Geidel

Dear community,

I would like to create a series of events, but each named individually. In my case, I do take part in a challenge which lasts 99 days.

So I would like to create 99 events in my calendar, each named "Day 1" or "Challenge Day 1", then "Day 2" or "Challenge Day 2"

You get the idea. I was able of course to create 99 events, but they are all named equally.

Any help would be useful

Regards Harry
