Is there a way to migrate #Thunderbird email filters to other Thunderbird installs or different email clients?
📧 Microsoft Exchange Support Coming to Thunderbird in October 2025
｢ The new support includes undo and redo operations for move, copy, and delete actions, as well as notifications, basic search, folder repair, and remote content handling. Users will also notice status bar feedback messages, updated account settings, and an autosync manager to handle message downloads more efficiently ｣

Hey, #Thunderbird users - for ~1 week, my tbird has been hanging up after I hit "send" - the UI kind of freezes (I sometimes even get the Ubuntu "This app isn't responding, should I force-quit it?" dialog) and then, after 3-5s, the message sends as normal.
I only have one plugin installed (Quicktext) and I've tried disabling it, and that didn't help.
Any ideas?

What's your take on #betterbird? I just found out about it and it looks like it has more fixes than Thunderbird, but I never strayed away from the latter.. 🐦

PSA: If you haven't updated #K9Mail to 12.0, please don't update it. It will crash on start if you use the unified inbox. The bug has been fixed in 12.1 and will be available in the next #FDroid update. #Thunderbird is not affected, kind reminder to consider switching as K-9 will go away in the future anyway.
Workaround for now: Make a widget for a single mailbox, then you can open K-9, you can change accounts and disable unified inbox.
@fdroidorg to add to that: Switching from #k9mail to #thunderbird is a matter of seconds; Thunderbird can import all accounts and settings from K9 at the press of a few buttons.

#Thunderbird just updated to 12.0 and is now broken too. It won't show contents in subfolders.

Is this just happening to me? I have lots of email filters sorting RSS messages into imap folders, with the idea of reading them on my mobile devices.
When the folders turned out empty last night (except for the top level inboxes) my first scare was that Thunderbird had deleted all the messages., but I can still see them on the real Thunderbird on Linux.
I have rebooted my Android devices (Fairphone 5 and Lenovo Tab M11) without success. I have disabled unified inbox too.
Help!
L'export des comptes paramétrés sur #Thunderbird Desktop + l'import vers @thunderbird Mobile, tout ça avec un simple QR Code à scanner = MERCI <3

"The centerpiece of the Thunderbird Pro offering is Thundermail, Thunderbird’s first official email hosting service. Built to support IMAP, SMTP, and JMAP protocols from day one, Thundermail will work seamlessly with the Thunderbird client and other standards-based email apps. Notably, the initial infrastructure will be based in Germany, a jurisdiction known for its robust data protection laws under the GDPR framework and a long-standing culture of digital privacy.
Locating Thundermail’s infrastructure in Germany positions the service as a privacy-focused alternative to US-based providers, many of which are subject to surveillance regimes like the CLOUD Act. Users will be able to bring their own custom domain or choose a Thunderbird-provided address with @thundermail.com or @tb.pro suffixes.
Thunderbird describes this move as part of its broader mission to reinforce support for open standards and provide users with a cohesive, privacy-conscious email experience, entirely within its own ecosystem."

Atelier #Thunderbird à #PSESQ avec @vieveca ; quelqu'un sait-il comment activer #IMAP sur un compte #Orange quand la personne n'est pas chez elle (et donc pas connectée via sa Livebox et Orange refuse « pour des raisons de sécurité »)
Edit : le mot important est « activer ». IMAP n'est pas actif par défaut sur un compte mail Orange (et c'est documenté sur assistance.orange.fr). Il faut d'abord l'activer sur son espace client (Web) et c'est là que ça coince.
L’offre de services #Thunderbird Pro se précise avec webmail, invitations et envoi de fichiers - https://next.ink/196350/loffre-de-services-thunderbird-pro-se-precise-avec-webmail-invitations-et-envoi-de-fichiers/
> #Mozilla a précisé la nature de l'offre optionnelle de services Thunderbird Pro, censée prolonger bientôt l'expérience offerte par le client logiciel Thunderbird. Trois fonctionnalités principales sont en cours de développement, toutes en open source : un #webmail, un outil de gestion des rendez-vous et un module d'échange de fichiers.
J'en ai marre de switcher trimestriellement entre #Thunderbird et #Evolution
Le premier est bien plus stable, mais le second est plus pratique, plus joli, et mieux intégré.
J'fais quoi, moi, dans ces conditions ? 🤔

"Ryan Sipes told the audience during his keynote ... that the Thunderbird mail client 'probably shouldn't still be alive'. Thunderbird, however, is not only alive—it is arguably in better shape than ever before. According to Sipes, the project's turnaround is a result of governance, storytelling, and learning to be comfortable asking users for money."

Sadly, somehow Debian has problems with the Wifi-Module on the #beelink. On the Pre-Installed Windows 11 it was able to get the maximum Wi-Fi speed that my router allows. With Debian I had to disable Bluetooth to get it faster than 0,5mb/s and even then it maxed at 20 mb/s.
Not sure what is going on there, but I now ordered a "known good" Wi-Fi stick. Don't want to go further into this mess than needed...it's still Linux. BUT the printer and scanner just worked 😅.
Hey #thunderbird users, how do I set the default calendar when creating new events? I don’t find an option for that and internet search sadly didn’t help either
