https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/changes-in-thunderbird-115-8-0-causing-problems/m-p/52745#M18759 <P>I have used Thunderbird since approximately 2015, and have been happy with the program.&nbsp; However, last week, suddenly, Thunderbird crashed, and when I restarted it, my password was no longer stored on my computer, most of my archived emails were no longer accessible, and all of my local folders, where I stored important messages, were gone.&nbsp; I have been trying to recover my lost messages and local folders without success.&nbsp; Also, now, Thunderbird frequently downloads new messages without my clicking on the cloud icon, and if I am in the process of deleting unwanted messages, the download causes the selected message to hump to another place in the list, and I accidentally delete messages that I wanted to save.&nbsp; Also, the Junk folder is now empty, and messages are being randomly marked as spam, but are not moved to the junk folder, which is now empty, and a new Known Spam folder has appeared and now contains over 100 messages that I have not vetted. Needles to say, I am not happy with the changes.&nbsp; My current experience with Thunderbird is leading me to look for another email program if the current version is not fixed.</P> Mon, 04 Mar 2024 14:50:04 GMT leehearn 2024-03-04T14:50:04Z https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/changes-in-thunderbird-115-8-0-causing-problems/m-p/52745#M18759 <P>I have used Thunderbird since approximately 2015, and have been happy with the program.&nbsp; However, last week, suddenly, Thunderbird crashed, and when I restarted it, my password was no longer stored on my computer, most of my archived emails were no longer accessible, and all of my local folders, where I stored important messages, were gone.&nbsp; I have been trying to recover my lost messages and local folders without success.&nbsp; Also, now, Thunderbird frequently downloads new messages without my clicking on the cloud icon, and if I am in the process of deleting unwanted messages, the download causes the selected message to hump to another place in the list, and I accidentally delete messages that I wanted to save.&nbsp; Also, the Junk folder is now empty, and messages are being randomly marked as spam, but are not moved to the junk folder, which is now empty, and a new Known Spam folder has appeared and now contains over 100 messages that I have not vetted.

I have been a regular contributor to Thunderbird (I believe that NOTHING is free save the Grace of God), but I hate paying for things that do not deliver.</P> Mon, 04 Mar 2024 18:22:15 GMT https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/changes-in-thunderbird-115-8-0-causing-problems/m-p/52765#M18765 Grammy2014 2024-03-04T18:22:15Z
