Thunderbird for Android Community Forum

On Android phone, latest K-9, certain legitimate email addresses are automatically changed to '+1' like a phone number. Tried disabling predictive text and autocorrect - doesn't help. e.g. email [email protected]. Phone is Samsung S24, latest update too. This behavior has been evident for some time.

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

I have just installed Thunderbird Free Your Inbox. Installed the desktop accounts via QR code. The signatures options appear to be limited to "text" only, not HTML or JPEG. Is that correct or am I doing something wrong. Thanks

I used maildroid for years but Google has now blocked it wrt email. I discovered Android Thunderbird and installed it. It works fine with my Gmail account (sending and receiving). But maildroid still works for my account hosted on site5.com, but Android Thunderbird doesn't. It silently discards emails sent to external sites. I've been working with site5 support for days now. They finally tried to an external site and observed the problem. They have now been promising their internal advanced support team is working on it, but it has been many days and no success yet. I decided to try K-9 after I discovered it was the code base for Android Thunderbird. It fails in the same way. Then I found this from Jan 2023: https://tinyurl.com/29em92e6 This seems to be my problem exactly, and there was no followup that it was solved. Note that there is no problem with inbound email, only outbound. The outgoing SMTP server is named correctly and configured for port 465, SSL/TLS security, and the email account name on the site5 server is given correctly, and with its correct password. I think this may be broken in the Android Thunderbird and K-9 implementation. (btw, I installed Android Thunderbird on a different Pixel 7 as well, configured it, and it also had the same problem, so it wasn't a phone cache or bad install issue). Help! Thanks!

bold text Hello everybody And sorry for my bad english ... I have an issue with the thunderbird app on my phone ( Asus zenfone 4 , OK it's pretty old ... ) :

When I delete an email , it doesn't go in the trash but is permanently deleted on my phone AND on the server I have said that to the team who is developing the app but i've got the following reply

" This seems like a support issue, and sadly we aren't able to troubleshoot these in our replies. Please reach out for community help at https://support.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird-android and we hope, once your issue is fixed, you might consider updating your review! "

So , I'm hoping for some help here ... thanks for reading

I can't find a way to delete a mail folder using the Thunderbird Android mail client. I'm using IMAP to access my mail account, so I'm talking about server side folders, not local ones. I know I can delete them using the desktop version of Thunderbird - but for e.g. a friend of mine that uses mobile devices exclusively for her mails that is not an option. So am I missing something here? Is there any way to delete a folder within Thunderbird Android?

Thanks for your help!

Hi,

I've recently switched hosting providers (to Hostinger) and also started using Thunderbird (as it offered a better way to transfer emails across from previous provided and have them in same email client).

Since doing that, my sent emails are continually getting blocked (marked as spam) and I have to contact Hostinger support to "unblock" my account. They've done some investigation and suggested that it is something to do with the email Header (they actually said a "missing header"). I've compared what is generated in the header when using the Hostinger webmail vs Thunderbird for Android, and one obvious difference is that there is no X-Sender in the Thunderbird for Android header (it also not present when using Desktop client)

Could this be the cause of the issue? I can't locate where I can ensure X-Sender is included in the Header. Is there anything else I can check?

Thanks
