Thunderbird crash when sending a message or a copy in the sent mail

I use Thunderbird on Yosemite 10.10.4 38.2.0 (Mac), to connect to Gmail via their IMAP server.

I have been using Thunderbird for many years. The last two weeks, a problem has resurfaced. It seems that Thunderbird loses contact with the IMAP of Gmail server. Two things occur:

(1) crashes when sending a message: it hangs on "connecting to smtp.gmail.com. After awhile, I hit cancel them and send again and the message passes through. (screenshot attached)

(2) hangs when copying to sent mail: I compacted my sent mail folder and it still hangs. Yet once I hit Cancel, and he me reprompts. After clicking ok several times, he finally saves the email in the folder.

I am also intermittently an error message "unable to run filters on the message" or something like that. Sporadically, in this case it is so difficult to reproduce.

I have a feeling that the problem is actually the Google server. I was in a new access provider, so at first I thought it was related to this. However, I have tested this in two places, including my university network (temple.edu) and observed the same problems. So, I don't think it's my local network connection.

I found no information that Google has hurt. I think that other users would see the same thing. The problem with the copy sent mail before in older versions of Thunderbird. The usual alternatives were to compact the file and play with the process boundary setting.

This is the case on almost every message I send now, and I send a lot of email, so I need to help this debugging.

Thank you.

By lifting the server indicates you have DNS problems. Something other r4eport as being useful is a ditch their ISP DNS and use Googles. It's
IP 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. For instructions, see https://www.opennicproject.org/configure-your-dns/how-to-change-dns-servers-on-a-mac/

However, do not check e-mail in the "sent" folder is also very annoying because I can't delete this folder.

Normally, Thunderbird saves mail in the sent folder. In the case of Gmail, all outgoing mail is autoatically added to the Gmail sent folder, and in the case of IMAP synchronizes it to the same folder in Thunderbird. So I guess that you are not using IMAP for your mail. Would this be the case? If you use POP, do a right-click on the account, select settings and folder on behalf of copies and put so save outgoing mail. Maybe it's that, for your EDU that Google do not save in the folder mail. In this case with regard to POPs.

  • Outlook express 6 when sending a message, the message 'hang up' in the Outbox

    Outlook express 6, when sending a message, the message 'hang up' in the Outbox, don't watch not in the box sent but is sent (confirmed) and continues to repeat the send action.

    I use outlook in private mode and a mode of business, private mode gives problems mode business is good
    In private and commercial modes, do you mean different identities? You probably have the corruption of dbx files in the identity of the problem.
     
    Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox and then create new folders to send and sent items box after having moved the messages you want to save to a local folder that you create.
     
    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
     
    In Windows XP, the files of user OE (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.
     
    With OE closed, find the DBX files for the items in the Outbox and sent and delete them.  New ones will be created automatically when you open OE.
     
    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.
     
    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.
     
    General precautions for Outlook Express:
     
    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.
     
    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

    Compact often as specified above.

  • How to make a copy of the sent IMAP messages when the sent folder file cannot be found?

    My Thunderbird works fine. I also see messages in the "sent" folder but I wonder are only registered in the IMAP server messages. For the backup application, I would like to copy the file from the "sent" folder but I can't find a local file for this.

    In home/me/.thunderbird/44g5fxvp.default/ImapMail/mail. .fi [mymail] I have files
    Archives - 1.sbd
    Archives.MSF
    Deleted messages
    Messages.MSF deleted
    Drafts.MSF
    INBOX
    INBOX.msf
    inbox_old
    inbox_old. MSF
    msgFilterRules.dat
    Sent.MSF
    Templates.MSF
    Trash.MSF
    Trash.SBD

    IE Sent.msf exists but is not named file sent. I am looking for a bad place? My Thunderbird settings or preferences are wrong? Is there something obvious that I missed?

    What is the most convenient way to make a local copy of the sent messages folder if Thunderbird does not have a local copy of it?

    Information on my system:
    The application databases
    Name Thunderbird

    Subscribed IMAP folders accounts configured to synchronize and place a copy of the folder on the server in the profile of mail, but this issue is constantly updated to match the server, so if you have new messages then these changes are made to the server folder and the folder on your computer is updated to match the server folder. Or if you delete mail from your copy then it will update the server. Then synchronized files are constantly changed and updated.
    Moving while copy/move, it stops the activity on files synchronized and enables offline that get you a copy to anywhere else you want.
    Less chance of something going wrong.
    then go back to online mode.

    I knew that some people have problems with copy/move emails in online mode that are offline.

    Easy way to go 'offline and online.
    To go offline:
    Click 2 bluescreen icon located in the bottom left of the status bar.

    To go online again:
    Click 2 screen black icon located in the bottom left of the status bar.

  • Is it possible to fix long (45 to 90 seconds) delay in the copy of the messages in the sent mail folder?

    Thunderbird is synchronized with IMAP for GMail account. The only time delays occur is to copy messages to the sent mail folder. A question, is memory or storage in Thunderbird?

    We have a very recent 8.1 Windows desktop with light personal use only. lots of storage.

    The messages being recorded slow figura in a XP 10 year sytem, we've used before.

    So no, we don't have that many files!

  • I believe that Mozilla Thunderbird is slow while sending a message by copying to the sent box. I have multiple accounts, so implementation of tiles help!

    I feel as many times is slow to send the message in Mozilla Thunderbird. Where, as in my Android phone, I could send a message very fast.

    One thing is implementation on the tiles on the homescreen allows to scroll too many accounts. The interface is too basic. Sorry if am not mistaken.

    Thunderbird sends slow by most standards, leaving the sending dialog box until he receives a message from the server that it contains the message, and send. Most programs send background and Thunderbird can do so, but reporting of errors in transmission is eager. You can activate the sending in the background by setting mailnews.sendInBackground to true in the configuration editor and sending of Thunderbird will be much faster. But you might want to watch the dependent bugs on this bug. before you "do" to make sure that you can live with the consequences. Most users will not have a problem.

  • The vulnerability is the CC and the fields of e-mail when sending group messages?

    I have a friend who is a challenge to me when I advised her to use the BCC field instead of the CC field to send group messages.
    I've been in there for years and this was one of the fundamental pieces of advice that we would give users on our network to prevent the spread of the virus and spam and to be perfectly honest, I thought it was a given since e-mail is sent in plaintext and therefore can be analyzed.  The question I have, are vulnerable to what Email address when it is used in the CC field or virus and malware seeks to steal addresses?  Also to throw away spammers as well.

    Thank you, sugi2k.

    Hi sugi2k,

    With assistance from the ICC is also how to send group messages, but I do it mainly for individual members of the group do not get to see all addresses of electronic mail to any person to whom I sent the message.  As far as I know, there is no almost difference between using the field or the CC field to send emails (although IAB a little better to hide the address, but it can still be found if you are the recipient or the sender of this JIU).  In general, this isn't how the malware and hackers work.  That's all simply too cumbersome and time-consuming to do by checking the addresses in the individual emails (if it is possible and very difficult to defend against if they can intercept the mail-, but generally found from the account of the recipient and not the sending account and generally because that most people choose to automatically add new senders of e-mail to their list of contacts and this is where the vulnerability usually occurs).

    Here is an article on the differences between the BCC and CC: http://email.about.com/od/emailnetiquette/a/cc_and_bcc.htm.  You will notice that it addresses of anonymity than the main on safety (but there are benefits of security regarding anonymity and the inabiility of other recipients to view the BCC recipients).

    Most malware and piracy occurs because someone comes to your contact list or address book or see everything simply your email address somewhere (maybe of you sent to someone who has been infected or a real pirate) and uses different techniques to make it look like SPAM and other things they send is from you when you're not actually send anything.  If they arrived at your list of book or contact addresses or someone that you are listed as a contact (probably using another method - I don't think these fields themselves are more susceptible to malware or hacking than anything else on your computer - if they have installed the keystroker malicious software or programs (everything that you type can be made available to them, unless detect you and remove malware or hacking tool), they can send to each of them (probably with an attempt to infect their systems included as well).

    In short, while they are not invulnerable, they are as safe as anything else (although IAB will limit the number of people who see the addresses of any group that can help their share where you don't know if they have been compromised) on your system.  The real problem with the e-mails is not sending them, but to receive for having "a surprise" with her that compromise your system and allows a person access to your contacts or address book - but they will not often also for entries in the messages sent and if they do, then the entries to one of these fields on your computer If it has been compromised is possible (not only e-mails but documents and about anything).

    If you are concerned that these things, use a program to encrypt messages and require recipients to have a decryption code to open.  It can still be broken by a pirate, but is much more difficult and requires a much more sophisticated hacker.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
