Mail Information

Post by Roderunner »

Hi Folks,
I'm using the latest version of TB on Win7 Home Prem 32bit.
In the preview pane I used to get the message that was sent.
Below was:-
Subject
Date and Time sent
From A Friend + mail address
To ME + my mail address.
-
Now all I get is the message.

Does the same thing occur if you launch the application in Mozilla Safe Mode? http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode

Nothing changes when in 'Safe Mode' The only addons are 'Lightning' which I dont use.& Theme Font & Size Changer which does nothing.

Do you have the same problem if you read the message in a tab or window? I'm not suggesting this as a workaround, its just to help troubleshoot.

Does right clicking on the folder in the folder pane, selecting properties in the context menu and then pressing the "repair folder" help?

If you use Control->U or view -> message source to look at the raw message source can you see the Subject:, Date: and From: headers? They will be in the midst of dozens of other headers.

Does the folder pane have the Subject, Date and Sender for the message?

What version are you using? There is no automated upgrade for 52.9.1 yet but many people in this forum have downloaded the setup program for version 60 from the web site and installed version 60.

I know of several ways to reduce the number of headers (and/or the number of lines of headers) shown when using the message preview pane, but not anyway to totally eliminate all headers unless the folder is corrupt . Does this problem only occur with the inbox?

Clicking Repair folder does nothing.

That looks like a normal, valid message. I used the HeaderToolsLite add-on to edit the only message in a child folder in "Local Folders" using Thunderbird 52.9.1
and replaced it with that message source. I had no problem viewing the headers or the summary in the folder pane using either 52.9.1 or 60.0. However,
I don't see the message body. I can't spot anything wrong with the boundary strings. I'll take another look at it tomorrow.

I'm going to wrap some of the long headers (dkim, spf) in your message so that the post doesn't add a horizontal scroll bar. That should have no
effect on your problem if the message is copied and pasted again since those headers are normally ignored by Thunderbird. At worst you'd just
delete those headers.

Hi tanstaafl,
I have been sending mail from one gmail address to another using a combination of old version to old version, new to old, new to new and old to new. Also accessed on Thunderbird.
This was all done on my Laptop. When I started this post, I was using version 60.0. I removed it and reinstalled 52.9.1. I also got the same error on TB Portable version 60.0.
-
Today I recieved a reply to mail sent to a Hotmail.com address, It was displayed properly.
Subject
Date and Time sent
From A Friend + mail address
To ME + my mail address.
-
Could it be that all was caused by all my testing using my Laptop or is it Gmail the culprit?
