When I forward a message to someone, I have the problem, that since ca. 2024 (a new version), at the beginning of my message are included (reproduced) all the informations from the original sender. It includes half a page or more of dates, which nobody needs. How can I reduce it?

This is an example of a mail, which I get from Thunderbird and would forward it (please answer me by mail):

I am getting the infamous "Unable to write to disk" message on all of my pop accounts.

I have plenty of disk space and the hard drive does not have errors. I changed all of the attribute bytes to write (not ready only) I created a new account with no imports. It also gets this error. I have one IMAP account that allows me to at least read my email, but I can't organize it. If I copy my pop account folders to that IMAP account they upload. Uh, no thanks. If I copy my pop account folders to the local folders area, same error (Unable to write to disk) I uninstalled and re-installed, and the profiles were all still there. I would even settle for incoming on an IMAP and moving incoming email to my pop folder, but you can't do that either.

I fear that the profiles are somehow corrupted. I have ALL of my email backed up and restore-able. There are some messages on the server that need to stay there for now.

Please help. I've spent 10+ hours on this and none of the existing help seems to apply here. I'm on the brink of giving up and switching to another tool.

Since a week ago, I can receive emails from a friend's email address just fine, but not reply to those emails or even sent new emails. They all come back as undeliverable, BUT say they're undeliverable to the secondary email I have for her, even though I never sent the email to the secondary address. Even after deleting the secondary address AND deleting and re-entering the main email address for her, no luck. I can send emails from my webmail.shaw account to her without problems. I would love to have this issue fixed ASAP, as I need to email her almost daily. Thank you very much, Jane.

I'm using Thunderbird with a Gmail account (amongst others).

Recently, something has changed, and Thunderbird now re-syncs with my Gmail account every single time I start it. It's a big account and this takes a very, very long time; and is very slow.

I do want it to sync, but only to get new messages and delete old ones.

It's almost as if the mail is not being stored locally, but I have ticked 'Keep all messages in all folders for this account on this computer' for this specific account.

Would appreciate some help, please.

Thx

Something changed a few weeks ago (about November 30) and since then Thunderbird will not allow me access to any new emails, nor to be able to send new emails.

Instead, I get a large pop-up window which basically says "Enter credentials: Mozilla Thunderbird Email wants to access your Google Account <my email typed here> This will allow Mozilla Thunderbird Email to: Read, compose, send, and permanently delete all your email from Gmail".

I don't want anyone to permamently delete any of my emails, nor do I want anyone sending emails from my email account (etc, etc).

SO I click deny, and the pop-up goes away - that is until I try to use Thunderbird and it pops up again.

I've been using Thunderbird for many years and never had this problem before. Do the Thunderbird or Mozilla techs know anything about this and how do I fix it, or is it a new policy (which means I will no longer be using Thunderbird)?

I have searched here some time in December but nothing suggested by other users worked for me.

Some emails I receive, when I reply to them, don't correctly display the email (body text) correctly. It looks like Thunderbird is choosing the wrong font colour for the reply email text and I'm after any info on why this happens and how to fix it.

Attached are two screen shots. "original.jpg" shows the original email and "reply.jpg" is my reply email. It doesn't always happen and it *may* be emails sent out by Zendesk.

I'm on latest TBird 128.6.0esr but it's been happening for the last few releases.

I am using Thunderbird on a Windows 10 PC with RCN internet. I had to create a new "account" when an old one wouldn't work since a recent Thunderbird ungrade ( :/ ) and now this new one keeps threading emails, which I hate and want back to individual ones.

Is this possible?

Thank you.

A few days ago my Thunderbird client was downloading messages. I could not see the email that was to be downloaded next. However, a notice appeared, apparently from a hacker that was ending the next email. It was asking me to let it override some information that allowed me to get messages. Then a popup from Thunderbird displayed. It said no decent public site would ask to override anything. So I clicked CANCEL. This happened repeatedly. I kept clicking CANCEL. But no emails downloaded, only the message. Then I got help from the Dell tech support that I paid for when buying the computer. It has always been very effective fixing problems, even if they were not with the computer itself. They could not fix the problem. I can see and answer my emails on Primus webmail. Now. no more emails download in the Thunderbird client after. So apparently some setting has been overridden. I got in touch with Primus, and they told me what to reset the port to, but nothing has been downloaded. I am able to send emails from the Thunderbird client. They told me that the server connection (IMAP) was the same port for send and receive. When I click Get Messages in the Thunderbird client, it says something like Checking server availability. But no new emails download. I have read this from Thunderbird:

"To manually configure an account, you will need to have the following details which can be supplied by your email provider. incoming mail server and port (for example, "pop.example.com" and port 110 or "imap.example.com" and port 143) outgoing mail server and port (for example, "smtp.example.com" and port 25) security setting for the connection with the server (for example, "STARTTLS" or "SSL/TLS" and whether or not to use secure authentication) First, open the Account Settings: In the Thunderbird menu bar, click the ToolsEdit menu and select Account Settings, or click the Application menu button and select OptionsPreferences and Account Settings from the sub-menu." I have tried all this to no avail.

What can I do to get email to download to the Thunderbird client? Can I uninstall the Thunderbird and reinstall without disturbing my Webmail? I would be happy for any help you can give me! Thanks!

In swedish now: Hände något vid en uppdatering av Thunderbird idag? Helt plötsligt gick det inte att skicka email längre. Inkorgen fungerade men när jag skrivit ett email och skulle skicka iväg det gick det inte iväg utan menyraden högst upp blev grå och meddelandet låg kvar. Vet någon vad som hänt? Jag har inte ändrat några inställningar.

Some security bobble forced me to change my password in Juno.

I can now access my email on line in webmail, but cannot send or download messages.

See screenshots. THANK YOU for your work.

I value Tbird because I can work offline and access my files off line.

When I opened Thunderbird this AM, an update was loading. On completion, it opened and showed 4 messages in the inbox, but none of them were showing. I also had messages in Trash and other folders, mostly from yesterday. Each folder showed messages but none could be viewed. I closed Thunderbird and reopened itt, but no change. It now shows 10 messages in the inbox.

I'm guessing this had something to do with the update. How do I fix this? Thanks in advance.

I noticed this morning that my Thunderbird tree no longer had a Junk folder. I restarted the program and Junk appeared, with stuff in it, but right-clicking the Junk folder no longer brings up the usual list of options, including Empty Junk. Instead, right-clicking seems to temporarily slow-down or 'hang' Thunderbird, a condition it does recover from in 10 seconds or so. I can open the Junk folder, select all messages and delete them, but something isn't right. Any ideas, anyone?

Update: Realized I didn't mention the version I was running, it was 133.0.3, under Windows 10, but when I opened Help to find this I was invited to do an update... so I did. When the 'update' was complete, I checked and am now running 128.6.0esr (64-bit). That seems strange. Oh, the same Junk problem persists under the 'new' version.

Update #2: Evidently the drop-down menu does eventually appear, if you just wait for it... anywhere from 5 seconds to 30 seconds or so. Normally the right-click is instantaneous. What could have happened, I wonder?

I have all but given up to try to solve my Thunderbird email sending issue. It will receive but not send messages. I have gone over the setting/ ports several times and cannot see what could be the problem.

After installation, continually asked for my name, e-mail address, Also continually asked for a donation which I have done through PayPal. In any case, the program never gets any further and, the (word, ALLOW) never can be found. Any help will be appreciated.

Hello,

restoring email in thunderbird has stopped with mai 2024. How can this fixed?

please ask me for concrete support. Do no send me to the next address.

Please, I need help. Bear with me while I describe the problem.

Let's say I have two email accounts set up, user1 and user2. Each one has been set up for quite some time and both have worked as expected for years. If I send an email from user1 a copy of the message drops in the sent folder of user1 and the reply comes back to user1, and if I send an email from user2 a copy of the message drops in the sent folder of user2 and the reply comes back to user2. Not any longer.

Now, if I send an email from user1, a copy of the message drops in the sent folder of user1 and the copy clearly says it was sent from user1's email. However, the reply comes back to user2's email inbox. The source of the message clearly shows it was sent TO: user2, Delivered-To: user2, Received: from line says it is for <user2>.

This has been going on since the latter part of last year.
