I thought there might be a problem with Thunderbird 133.0, so I attempted to install version 130 over it. I was told it was incompatible with version 133.0, so I uninstalled version 133.0 and installed version 130.

Since then, Lightning Calendar has been missing, even when I reinstalled version 133.0. The Events and Tasks tab is missing. Calendar does not appear in Add-ons and Themes. There is no trace of it anywhere. I uninstalled Tbird, deleted all of the folders for it and reinstalled Tbird, again. No luck.

One of my email addresses, which I haven´t used for a month or so, has stopped sending messages. I am told to check my SMTP settings. Incoming messages are being received. The server is smtp.office365.com I am using port 587, as recommended by the Outlook site. I was using 465. I have restarted the pc since making the change. The email address is ....@outlook.com Settings are: SSL/TLS OAuth2

I am using WIndows11

I cant find any useful advice on the Outlook site.

Any suggestions ?

Just wondering why when I organize/delete my emails in TB (have several accounts in there) my profile size does not go down but always up? Should I be refreshing or something like that?

Just what the subject line says. Go looking for something and Search doesn't find it. Even after I remember the email and find it, Search does not find it.

Why is this? It is un-usable, actually as it happens all the time.

For instance, putting in a company name like "walmart.com" will find some but not all the emails with walmart.com and certainly not the most recent ones specifically with a person's name.

I can start Thunderbird but it always crashes very shortly after startup (within about 30 seconds). Here is a crash report:

bp-e6e2f348-5338-458f-a03e-c03b70241224

I have started TB in safe mode, started Windows in safe mode, reinstalled, tried clearing startup cache. Nothing is working. Thanks for your help,

why do l have to click on inbox message twice so that it can open the message , this happens intermittently l have to go back and forth to mail address and then back to inbox message a couple of time before it can open inbox message

i'm using:

Thunderbird 128.5.2esr (64-bit) Kubuntu 24.04 KDE Plasma 5.115.0 Qt 5.15.13

when i get attached files, like .jpg, .png, or .pdf, i can see that the message has an attached file, but thunderbird no longer opens those files, or knows how to make other applications, like okular, gwenview, or inkscape open them. this USED TO BE a standard feature.

1. receive an attached file: FILE-NAME.pdf

at the bottom of the window is a bar that says "1 attachment: FILE-NAME.pdf 3.8 kB"

2. click on FILE-NAME.pdf

EXPECTED RESULT: FILE-NAME.pdf opens in okular

ACTUAL RESULT: nothing

3. alternate-click on FILE-NAME.pdf and choose "Open" from the context menu

EXPECTED RESULT: FILE-NAME.pdf opens in okular

ACTUAL RESULT: nothing

4. alternate-click on FILE-NAME.pdf and choose "Save as..." from the context menu, and save the file somewhere obvious.

5. navigate to somewhere obvious, and open the file

RESULT: FILE-NAME.pdf opens

i looked at "Settings -> General -> Files & Attachments" and confirmed that "Portable Document Format (PDF)" is set to "Use okular". i also deleted, and re-added "Portable Document Format (PDF)" from "Settings -> General -> Files & Attachments" with no change in the above reported behaviour.

I have seen many questions a bit like mine but they all refer to downloading emails. Mine is different: "The folder 'Trash on my@email.com' could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space, and that you have write privileges to the file system, then try again." It now happens on two different email addresses (one is POP one is IMAP). Trash seems otherwise to work and can be deleted. But still this alarm. MAS OS 15.1.1 (24B91) - latest Thunderbird 128.5.2esr (64-bit)

Thunderbird just changed the number of emails that show when I open my comcast email account. Before, it was at least 5 displayed. Now it is 3 with an enlarged area for the email info. I find this very inconvenient to be able to see only 3 emails. I don't need the larger area for the email text. I can open the email and see it. Is there a way I can adjust this? Thank you, Sally

In Thunderbird I see two methods of accessing/editing SMTP settings for email accounts.

1. Using the "Outgoing Server (SMTP)" which displays all the email accounts in a list. You then select one and click "Edit" to view or edit it.

2. On each email account page there is an "Edit SMTP server" button. Click that to view or edit the SMTP settings for that account.

I'm seeing two problems:

1 - The settings made using #1 above don't carry over into what I see using #2 above.

2 - Using method #2 above, changing the SMTP settings for my newest email account also changes the settings (seen using #2 above) on one other email account. And vice-versa.

What could be causing this?

Fix it. I use Google Calendar integration. When a calendar item pops up a notification, Thunderbird stops retrieving email until I acknowledge it. This is a nuisance when I'm away from my machine for any length of time and I rely on Thunderbird to process incoming emails.

Thanks.

Dear Thunderbird:

I have used Thunderbird for years. I click on Attach to add images to my email. To check the attachments, I would double click on each one and it would open in my Microsoft Photo Viewer for Windows. However, now instead of opening the image, I get Adobe Acrobat Reader Home page and no image.

Has something changed in Thunderbird ? Or is there a simple setting I can change with your coaching ?

Thank you for your help.

After months of constant Thunderbird crashes and hundreds of crash reports, and as many attempts at trying to resolve the issue but without any resolution, I am now getting the following message when Thunderbird crashes:

Thunderbird had a problem and crashed. Unfortunately the crash reporter is unable to submit a report for this crash.

Details: Expected value at line 1 column 1

I have version 128.5.2esr installed, but the issues started well before this version you can see the information in the crash reports if you want to look at them. I have tried Troubleshooting Mode, and can confirm the issue persists. I have also noticed that the one IMAP account I have attempts to redownload all messages from the mail server - it never completes because Thunderbird always crashes first. Aside from the obvious request for troubleshooting suggestions on the primary crash issue, I have three additional questions:

1. Is there a way for me to isolate that IMAP account, in another profile or such, to see if that account or server is contributing to the issue?

2. How is the crash report interpreted - i.e. where do I look to see the actual cause of the crash? In the "Details" tab the CRASH REASON and CRASH ADDRESS are not very informative to the average user.

3. What is the best way to provide a list of crash reports - I've had nearly 30 over the past few days, and - literally - hundreds since the issue began in October (which did not appear to coincide with anything in particular - e.g. new hardware or software, or TB update. Is is acceptable to post a list in the body of this thread, or as a txt document, or .... ?

BTW, running this on a Windows 10 22H2 machine, i9-14900KS, 32Gb DDR5, previously nVidia Quadro P5000 now Intel Arc A770 Graphics. Yes, have tried rebuilding POP3 folders, and yes I have a backup of my profile, which is about 35Gb in size.

TIA

I've Thunderbird installed after it was deinstalled by a fail installation routine. On yesterday during this new install thunderbird has recovert the mails but only up to siste month May. The account on gmail isn't available completely.

Is there a possibility to try a completely recovery again.

This is an Ubuntu /Oracular OS. koffie

restoring email in thunderbird has stopped with mai 2024

What do you understand by "restoring" email? Recover lost email? Recover deleted mail? Download email?

The compose screen opens with several lines of text and characters. The gibberish will clear, but it will always populate the compose screen when invoked. Example: -- PK?????!ߤ�lZ? ????[Content_Types].xml �??(�?���n�0?E���?��Ub袪*?�>�-R�??{?V��Ǽ��??QU?� l"%3��3Vƃ�ښl ?�w%�?=���^i7+���-d?&�0�A�6�l4��?L6?0#�Ò�S O����?X��*��V$z�3?��?3����?��%p)O�???^�??���5}nH"?d�s�Xg�L�`�?��|�ԟ�|�P�rۃs?��???�PW�?�t?t4Q+��"�wa���|T\y���,N�?��U�%���-D/?��ܚ��X�ݞ�(?��?�<E��??)��?;�N�?L?�F�˼?��܉�?�<Fk� �h?�y����ڜ���q�?i��?�ޯl��i�1��]�H�g�?�m�@?����m�?��?PK?????!?�?��N????_rels/.rels �??(�?���j�0?@���ѽQ��?�N/c��?�??[IL?��j���<��?]�aG��ӓ�zs�Fu��]�?�U �� ��^�[��x����1x�p�?���f��#I)ʃ�Y?��??������?�*D��?i")��c$���qU���~3��1��jH[{?�=E��?��?~ f?��3-���޲]�Tꓸ2�j)�,?l0/%��b� ?���z���ʼn�, � �/�|f\?Z���??6�!Y�_�o?�]A�?��?PK?????!f<h=�? ??word/document.xml�Y�n�6?}/�?��?ut�,c�E�??6m��?�H�%�$�$e'������Ē?�@��C(?g?�?9�A���S�(?�E̲�j��B���q���>,'SU?�d!IXF��3?�������,(R�I? 21���\���g�&���D��q��`+y?�Tc�U?Pm�x�����_9g???�[�lC�Z�?O��BN�`���?D�K��a?G�8��M���?��C�؇���r5d�?d�??����Ӑ^p�= ��G�NC�����!�]�t����f��b<%?�|���-� �DƏq?�g���?����??�U��Z��?����&Vؠ��Z�lV�OZ{�>��롵�ɸma;_�O2?���cbW�_Յ����i?qd��⼭?�h�?5 �C?ؤI��͍���Zi����??C�>�4��?F4�?��?��?
