I have not changed my email accounts or my Google & Microsoft usernames or passwords. A few days ago when I started Thunderbird, two Google pop-ups arrive reading "Mozilla Thunderbird Email wants to access your Google Account" demanding that I deny or allow it. Why might this be happening and how do I stop it? This does not occur with other email apps such as Outlook for Windows.

Hi all

hope that's the correct place to ask a TB calendar (formerly: Lightning) question?

It seems that ever since my Thunderbird auto-updated to 128.5.1, sending messages with attachments is VERY slow. I just sent a client an email with a 6.9 MB attachment and it took over 2 minutes to send. A few weeks ago, that would have gotten sent in seconds. I tried cleaning out my Inbox and Sent box by moving most of the messages to local folders, but no change. Any thoughts? Anyone else having this issue?

I have been using a Dell keyboard for many years, ````````````````````````````````````````````````````









I have a Dell keyboard mdl SK-8135 that I have been using for many years. The one feature I liked was the fact that it had an email hot key along the top of the keyboard that would open my Thunderbird email. Recently however that button when depressed opens my browser and not Thunderbird.

I'm not sure why this is happening but I would appreciate any help or suggestions as to what I can do to get this dedicated key to once again open Thunderbird. I guess it would help if I mentioned that I am currently using Windows10.

Thank you all.

Hi team,

I am battling problems snoozing & dismissing notifications for my Calendars in Thunderbird.

In the console I am seeing lots of: `Calendar: Could not find definition for AUS Eastern Standard Time`

How does Thunderbird define timezones, and where can I correct this?

I am running 128.5.1esr and my calendar is Radicale 3.0.6.

Thanks!

A Pop-up entitled "Enter credentials for <my email> on imap.gmail.com" has appeared recently. This "page" headed "Google", says "Mozilla Thunderbird Email wants to access your google account. This will allow ...Thunderbird ... to Read, Compose, Send, and permanently delete all your email from Gmail". If I click the "Deny" button the same thing pops up and I cannot get to, not download any of my new emails.

It seems to me that if I "allow" this, it goes against all the privacy in Thunderbird settings and gives permission to take control of my account.

How do I get rid of this and get "back to normal" (this has only started in the las couple of weeks)?

I'm about ready to delete Thunderbird and try something else - this after 20-odd years of using Thunderbird with little or no problems.

I've been using Thunderbird v102 for quite a while until Supernova was stabilized. I finally upgraded and Thunderbird was updated to v128. I was able to configure it to what it looked like in v102. However, when I compose an email and try to drag and drop a file (e.g. a ".pdf" file) onto the compose pane of the new email window it doesn't work. I've tried a variety of things, including saving my old profile, creating a new profile, then trying to write a new message, and finally trying to drag and drop a file for an attachment. This no longer works. I can, however, click on the "Attach" icon at the top of the write window and within a few clicks, and some searching, and a few more clicks, can attach a file.

What happened? And is this fixable? Why does all new software make it more difficult to do simple tasks that have worked for years, thinking it makes life easier by making it more difficult? Sigh...

Every time I open Thunderbird, two windows appear asking me:

        Mozilla Thunderbird Email wants to access your Google Account
        myemail@gmail.com
        This will allow Mozilla Thunderbird Email to:
        More info
        See, edit, share and permanently delete all the calendars that you can access using Google Calendar.
        By clicking Allow, you allow this app and Google to use your information in accordance with their 
        respective privacy policies. You can change this and other Account Permissions at any time.
        Deny / Allow

Until I click Allow, Thunderbird won't update my emails. I've several times gone to my Google account and deleted the connections between Thunderbird and that account, in the hope it would reset but to no avail.

How might I fix this?

In the middle of using Thunderbird it froze. I restarted it and it gave me a screen asking for all of my email credentials. It then started an install of the most recent release of Thunderbird (which I was not trying to do) whereby it needed to download all of my past emails, settings, etc. My Quick Text add-on was completely deleted and much of my "Sent Email" box was deleted along with all the tags I had assigned to my emails.

I am just looking for the version of the Thunderbird I was using up until 8:00 last night. Is there a way to get back to it? This is horrific timing as well since I am at the height of my busy season with work. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.

In Outlook, both the classic and new versions, there's a feature beneath the subject line and date that provides a one-line preview of messages. This feature is incredibly useful for identifying spam and getting an overview of the content before clicking into messages. I noticed that Thunderbird doesn't offer this type of functionality. After some research, I found two outdated plugins that previously offered this capability in column view, but they no longer work. Is there a way to implement this feature in Thunderbird, or are there any plans to reintroduce it? It's a significant feature that is currently the only thing preventing me from fully switching to Thunderbird.

So have Win11 , TB128.5.1esr (64-bit). Been running "TB" since it since it was Eudora 1.0.

I have an account set up to fetch my Gmails , set up as a POP. I've already unchecked... Tools/Account Settings/google pop account/server settings... -Check for new messages at startup -Check for new messages every -Fetch headers only And in "Advanced" , "include this server when getting new email" is greyed out and unchecked.

The google POP account uses it's own folders, not the "local folders, as does all my other pop accounts in TB.

When ever I click, "Get Messages" , the google POP account gets checked, and downloads emails.

How do I "disable" it from being part of the "Get Messages" button/command?

TIA
