It would be very nice if Thunderbird would automatically remember e-mail that I mark as junk mail.

I get so many junk e-mails. Often, T-bird sees most of them as junk and puts them in the junk folder. However, there are many that it does not catch, so I have to create message filters.
Also, T-bird doesn't always remember e-mails that it marked as junk at one time, and leaves them in my inbox; or, it marks e-mails that are not junk as junk, and doesn't remember that I mark these as not junk - all of this makes going through my e-mails a very time-consuming part of my day.
It would make my life so much easier if T-bird would remember e-mails that I mark either as junk or not junk, and handle them accordingly, without the need for me to add message filters constantly.
Maybe it would be easier if T-bird provided a "white list" function which the user could include *only* e-mails that are "approved."
Please feel free to contact me about this issue.
Thanks!

i have had this problem for the last few weeks, and the junk is becoming more and more....i like tb and have used it for many years, but i may have to go to my mac mail program.....ughhh
i will try the retraining suggestion and see what happens thanks

  • New install on Windows 8. 2 accounts. Thunderbird is automatically moving all mail from 1 account to the other. How do I stop it?

    Stock Windows 8 Updated, no add ons.
    New clean install of Thunderbird 24.3.0
    2 mail accounts. 1 x gmail, l x Yahoo.
    All new mail into the yahoo inbox gets automatically moved into the inbox of the gmail account.
    The two accounts have no other connection.
    Both accounts use IMAP with the automatic settings applied.
    How can I stop this?

    My first thought is to check your message filters on each account. Tools > Message Filters
    2nd thought is to check your yahoo settings via your browser and see if mail forwarding is enabled.
    Turn on the location column (see attached image) and see if they are actually in the apparent folder.
    Possible that your gmail inbox is being used as a "unified inbox"?

  • I've moved to Mail 4.0 in Snow Leopard.  Very nice.

    After a long stretch with a combination of Thunderbird and Entourage, the exchange server support in Snow Leopard caused me to take a new try at Mail 4.0. I was surprised at how easy it was for Mail 4.0 to get connected to my work's exchange server. I can also now accept or reject calendar invitations from work directly from within Mail 4.0. I've also setup Mail 4.0 to access my gmail via IMAP. I'm surprised at how fast Mail 4.0 is compared against Entourage and Thunderbird. Very nice.

    I just moved from entourage to mail 4 in Snow Leopard. I am on an exchange server. All my emails, contacts and appointments came over to Mail 4.0. But I have one Project in Entourage that I cannot see or find. Does anyone know if Mail 4.0 will support Projects that is in Entourage and Outlook?

  • Thunderbird incompatible with centurytel outgoing mail

    Centurytel is "upgrading" their mail servers, and a recent upgrade is causing a very odd problem: Thunderbird can now send outgoing mails using my Centurytel account to some domains and not others. I.e. sent mails to a godaddy hosted email address is bounced with the error:
    ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
    <[email protected]>
    (reason: 554-p3pismtp01-058.prod.phx3.secureserver.net)
    ----- Transcript of session follows -----
    554 5.0.0 Service unavailable
    but some sent emails are sent successfully to other domains, such as the att.net domain.
    The same Thunderbird client can still send outgoing mail to ANY domain using both a GoDaddy-hosted email account and an AT&T hosted email account.
    I just spent over an hour with third level Centurytel techs and since this problem does not occur in Outlook or the Centurytel Webmail app, they determined it is a Thunderbird issue.
    Wonderful. Any ideas?

    Matt said:
    >>All we can do is guess...
    Agreed, I was bummed when they dropped the case. The 3rd level Centurytel tech either didn't know, or wouldn't tell me what mail server package they used, so I couldn't follow up with that vendor.
    The issue is tied to some aspect of the header formatting or content as created in T'bird. I ran tests using Outlook from here and had zero problems with my mails being delivered to any other mail server or domain. I also used the Centurytel Webmail client and had no problems.
    I also sent messages created in T'bird and sent them with no problkem through an AT&T and GoDaddy account and didn't have any delivery issues. Only when I create and send the message from T'bird and deliver it through the Centurytel mail server does the selective delivery behavior rear it's ugly head...go figure.
    I've used T'bird since it came out years ago and love it...but this is getting in the way, and my email addy is legacy and I am loathe to abandon it. I may have to change my email client to, *urp* Outlook or something else...
    Thank you for checking in on this, Matt! If you think it would help I can send you the transcript of the rejected mail?
    Cheers,
    Howard Hoyt

    I can not get to iPhone screen, so no way to get to Settings. That is the problem. When I connect phone to iTunes I get screen asking to insert SIN card. On the phone I'm getting Cinfigure screen asking Launguage , Country or Region, Wi-Fi, ( I can connect to my home wi-fi), and last screen "Activating your iPhone". After two minutes of waiting IM getting message: Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server in temporary unavailable. try connecting to iTunes or try later or contat apple.com/support.
    Like I mention, I went to Bell as well Rogers store and tried to insert active SIM card with no results.

  • New Apple Earpods are very nice

    I have to say these new earpods are very nice. The sound is great and the fit is very comfortable.
    I have Bose earbuds for my iPod Nano (Gen 7) and Apple's earpods are brighter in sound with adequate bass. The Bose earbuds have a little more bass with the Nano. The earpods sound really nice with my Macbook Pro Retina and iPhone 4. I don't use the EQ with any of my devices.

    Hello Keg55,
    I have a Macbook Pro (early 2011) and was really wondering if these new Apple EarPods are compatible with the Macbook Pro series. When I am asking that question I am thinking of the microphone on the cord, is it recognized by the Macbook Pro?
    My Macbook Pro doesn't have a dedicated mini-jack connection for mics so that would be really helpfull. My guess is that it is, as the previous version of iPhone headsets worked like a charm. I know you can't answer for my specific Macbook Pro as you have the one with retina display. So my question really is;
    Is the included mic recongnized by your Macbook Pro Retina?

  • Would love a bumper case that can stay on the phone

    It appears there is an overwhelming number of people who would love a bumper case that can stay on the phone when docking it in a speaker dock, a clock dock etc etc.   Is there such a beast and if so who makes it and who sells it?

    I have the same issue.  While I am sure your solution would work, my playlist has over 6,000 songs and hiting every song to download it is not very practical.  Is there another way?
    I am looking to have a subset of my music physically on my phone so that I can play it without internet access, but have access to the entire library when I do have internet access. 

  • HELP!  I subscribed to imatch on my mac so that I could access the songs anywhere with my iphone.  However since I live in a rural community I would like to make playlists that always stay on my phone in case I don't have service.  Not sure how.

All that I saw was the black bar saying authentication busy. I was not able to restart, I was not able to switch users, I was not able to shut down. I decided to manually shut down my Mac.  when it booted back up I was looking at the disk utility screen. When I clicked on repair or race it indicated that my hard drive had already been arranged. I was looking at completely formatted drive and I was having to either restore from Time Machine or reinstall lion. I had a back up but why did this happen?

    A possible workaround could be to have the horizontal scroll bar visible all the time.

  • I had previously purchased the programs "Pages" and "Numbers" and they are on my iPhone and iPad I was told that the programs would automatically copy a version of itself for the iMac to be running them but I don't see it installed. How can I install them

    I had previously purchased the programs "Pages" and "Numbers" and they are on my iPhone and iPad I was told that the programs would automatically copy a version of itself for the iMac to be running them but I don't see it installed. How can I install for free?  I see that I could go to the apple store and purchase them again but I belibve that since I had already purchased them; I would get a free copy for my Imac.  Do I got something confused here?  Please help.

    Whoever told you that was misinformed or lying. Those applications are sold separately for the iOS platform and the Mac platform.
    Go to the Mac App Store to purchase Pages and Numbers for your Mac. They're $20 each. If you are running an older version of Mac OS X that can't use the Mac App Store, you can purchase install media from Apple.

  • I'm retiring my old computer (windows xp) to a new computer (windows 7). How can i easily move my itunes music from the old computer to the new computer? i have my playlists organized in my old computer, i would like it to stay that way in my new computer

    i'm retiring my old computer (with windows xp) and bought a new computer (with windows 7). How can i easily move my itunes music from the old computer to the new computer? i have my playlists organized in my old computer, i would like it to stay that way in my new computer. I also have my ipods, iphone sync'd in the old computer so i want to make sure that things won't get messed up (my apps, playlists, etc) when i move over everything to the new computer and sync all my devices with the new computer.
    Thanks in advance for the tips.

    Make sure the XP box is upgraded to the latest version of itunes. Also make sure it's using the itunes media folder layout as explained here, because that's what the W7 is going to be using.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3847
    Install itunes on the new W7 PC.
    Get these folders from the XP machine
    C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes
    C:\Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    And put them here on the W7 machine

  • I'm getting the grey screen during start up and can't boot the computer. I did a cmnd R but worried it would automatically wipe my hard drive and reinstall OS.  Is there a risk at cmnd R will result in wiped HD without me actively making that choice?

    I'm getting the grey screen during start up and can't boot the computer - MacBook Pro with lion.
    I did a command r after doing some research but got nervous that it would automatically wipe my hard drive and reinstall OS.
    I was nervous because it asked me for language for software use before any options were presented (such as repair via disk utility). It looked similar to an OS install.So I powered off....Is there a risk at command r will result in wiped HD without me actively making that choice?

    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is
                    three times faster than wireless.
