Issue with thunderbird
Folks, I've been using thunderbird as my email client for a long time and I've seldom had any issues with it, but now I'm having a strange problem and I'm not sure where to go for help. The issue is I use thunderbird as my email client for 3 email accounts. Thunderbird downloads my email for 2 of those accounts, for the third, which happens to be gmail, it tells me there are no new messages to download. The last email thunderbird downloaded for my gmail account is May 4. If I look at my gmail account using chrome it shows emails up to May 15. Also I receive my gmail email on my Samsung S7 smartphone and it shows all recent email up to May 15, so I don't think the issue is with gmail. Does anybody know what might cause this behavior and how to fix it? Gmail is my primary email, so I really do need to get this fixed. Any help is appreciated.

Since fedup doesn't muck with user files, it is doubtful to be a permission issue on your ~/.thunderbird directory. Everything under that directory will be owned by your username. Certainly you can ensure that the files are owned by your username by doing chown -R username:usergroup ~/.thunderbird(using the appropriate values) You'd be much better served to actually post the actual error messages you are getting as opposed to people assuming what you're seeing and then making suggestions based on assumptions that may not be valid. I checked the backup copy I made of .thunderbird before upgrading and the permissions were not the same. I then changed the permissions on the upgraded folder using info found on mozilla forums, etc... with no change. The solution seems to be to delete all the folders, sub-folders, and message filters and rebuild them. I also was extremely pressed for time, and sent in the email extremely quickly before I could include the exact message errors. I apologize for the omission(s). -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
