Hello,

This is the 2nd of 3* questions re searching in Mozilla Thunderbird email manager:

What is the difference between the "Search <Ctrl+K>" and "Filter these messages <Ctrl+Shift+K>" and when is it best to use one vs the other?

Thanks

On a mac, I have a program that can send an email of some date. We are trying to use Thunderbird instead of macMail. I have the default email client set in Mail's preferences as Thunderbird but the program keeps grabbing the macMail client for sending this information. This is happening on all workstations (this is a dental practice management piece of software.) I checked with the software company and there are not settings within the program that control what program is used for email and is selected through the defaults. I have not been able to find anything on this via Google. Any help with this would be appreciated.

BTW: The OS is Sierra,10.12.6

Regards,

Bill

Hi- a computer tech here replaced our hard drive, which was crapping out. He said he moved everything over, but we had to download and reinstall Thunderbird email client and Firefox.

The problem is, we don't have the bookmarks or histry in FF, and we created a new profile in Thunderbird, but we don't have any of the old folders or sent emails.

Now, we do have a macrium reflect image which I can browse, from just a few days ago. I copied the profiles from appdata into each of the profile folders on the new C drive.

But still no luck. What am I missing? Thanks!

Dear,
Thunderbird is working fine on server, while now I got the issue below to connect to it by one other Email account. What to adjust below?

without setting up a new account


hostupon.com shared linux server email

name@MyDomain.com

(owned by me but not named MyDomain.com)

works

but I want to send a second email as
name2@MyDomain.com

using thunderbird windows10 how do I set this up

I think it is called an alias

Hi

I have three different systems installed with Thunderbird 52.9.1 32bit and four extensions (Gsyncontact, Lightning, Provider for Google Calendar and QuickFolders) :
a Windows Server 2012 R2, an old ASUS P8Z68-V-PRO (16GB RAM + 512GB SSD) and a brand new XPS15 9575 - the last two run under Windows 10 64bit

The XPS and the Server both suffer from a strange phenomena that seems to me to be linked to the calendar reminders
A blank grey rectangle appears at the bottom right hand side of the Windows desktop screen
The only way to get rid of it is to restart Thunderbird

It is a little annoying and was wondering if anyone else was suffering from this and what the workaround was ?

thanks

I want to migrate all data from Thunderbird to Outlook ... I have some alternative tools but first I want to use the manual method, so if someone knows about manual conversion. please tell me ...

How do I transfer my bell mail address book to Thunderbird?  Bell mail is IMAP and I believe that Thunderbird is IMAP as well.
Typically, one exports the file as a csv file and then import the address book to the new email program.  The problem is that
the computer I am trying to do this with does not have Microsoft Office.  It is using Open Office and the spreadsheet program is called Calc.
Therefore, the option of using a csv file is not possible.
Is it possible to transfer the address book (export and import) or must I input the email addresses manually?  There are 143 email addresses.
thanks,
capreol

How to make signature that will look the same on different email-clients? We use outlook 2010, 2013 and 2016 and mozzila thunderbird. I have tested with thunderbird and Outlook 2016 and have big problems, from display of color to different looking text.   What I found is when I send a colored line (orange) the other email client changes it to gray + when mail is sent from thunderbird formating is gone.. So how to proceed here? I made signature in word 2016 then copy it to outlook and  for thunderbird I tried to open it as .htm file or copy paste the signature from outlook and then inside new mail use save, file and then as html and then choose it as signature.

So any options what should I use do?  I even tryed to use signature as picture but is not a preferable way.

My final goal is to have a signature that will work with all email clients and will be easilly editable for every employee.

Thanks
