I m trying to set up as my third email in thunderbird an account which is mickel@embarqmail.com. It sets up using the manual settings following their server instruction fine. But it will not accept my password. I know it is correct because I can log in on their webmail site. What can I do? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'm using Thunderbird version 128.11.0esr on my Windows 11 desktop computer.

I have many email accounts in Thunderbird and Thunderbird automatically forwards email from some of the accounts.

Occasionally I will see an error message: "Send Message Error. Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: Error sending message for delivery... Please check the message and try again."

Can I trace this error back to determine which email account is causing the error?

Thank you.

After changing my AOL passwords for two accounts today, I was able to generate a login password from AOL and log into Thunderbird with my AOL accounts. However, one of the two accounts will not send email from Thunderbird, but will on my iPhone and iPad. The other AOL account is working fine. I also verified that the SMTP port is 465. So I have done everything on my end, I think there's a Thunderbird glitch.

If I right-click on an email near the bottom of the window in Thunderbird, then the menu still opens down instead of opening up (and therefore I can't see or select many of the options). I don't have this problem in FF or any other programs.

I have followed the procedures for marking messages as "junk", including the "training", marking the messages individually, etc., and the messages are never diverted to the junk folder. They just keep appearing in my inbox. What's the problem here?

Hi all,

Whenever I send a meeting invite to another person from my calendar and I include any text in the "Description" tab of the invite, that text from the description gets put into an invite.ics file and it sent as an attachment. People using Microsoft Outlook (unfortunately still a lot of people) do not see the description text: People using the "old outlook" cannot seem to open it at all (their outlook tells them "there is no previewer installed for it"), and "new outlook" will open it but only after an extra double-click on the attachment, which is unfortunately too much to ask for certain users.

So, the result is that I cannot invite people to an online meeting because the link to the conferencing tool is hidden in the invite.ics file.

How can I send an invite where the invite text + link are directly visible to Outlook users?

I'm running Thunderbird 128.11.0esr, no active add-ons that seem related to this.

Thanks in advance!

Up until a few days ago, the app worked fine. Now, whenever I try to click on "share" (say for a Wikipedia article), the keyboard doesn't show, unless I press the "To" button. The keyboard ALWAYS came up automatically before a few days ago. Also, at the same time, when I try to send (for example) pictures, only ONE will get sent. The other aren't included in the email, and there is only ONE attachment. I'm not sure if the problem is related, but it's a weird coincidence. All this started about 3 days ago, and I'm not sure eif it updated or not, but I'm using version 10. Thanks in advance!

First when I try to write an email I put the op name in the To: box but the contact list from my address book I imorted from my new outlook(I do not have 365)does not work -there is nothing. I need the simplest way to synchronize the address book with the To: when I send an email. 2 I'm confused about export and import. I always thought I import from something and then I export to something but it seems that Thunderbird commingles the two terms. I was trying to import from my outlook new to Thunderbird. Is it a matter of language or understanding? Thunderbird seems to work except for the above mentioned feature. Please explain? 5-29-25

The 13x version appears to have introduced a bug.

When pasting links into emails, and then "inserting" the link, if you try to add any advanced options to the link (i.e. target=_blank), it doesn't create the link.

If you simply "insert" the link without setting any advanced options, then the link is created.
