question re Thunderbird email

9 years ago

I just sent an email to 3 cc addresses. Got a message back to say that one failed because there is no such address. Does that mean the other two were delivered, or not?

TIA
Sue

I think the problem was on the recipients end. Sometimes they change their email or have a problem with their server or their computer. If none of them went through you would have gotten 3 returned notices. If it is a family member or a close friend, give them a call to be sure if it happens again.

Re: the failed message itself, did you add the address by hand (and make a small typing error)? Or did you add it from the address book where it was also somehow misspelled? (Best to eliminate possible accidental sender errors to narrow down just why the one was returned.) Have you used that address in the past with success?

Zep, I couldn't save anything, I had to do a recovery. Raven, you have lost me. When I got this PC with Windows 7, you guys helped me get my e-mail addies from my former Outlook programs. I can do a search and get those instructions again, I just thought since Thunderbird comes from the net that my former account might be out there in cyber space somewhere. I had no idea how to get to it, so I just re-downloaded and installed it again. I just didn't know if there was actually a way to connect to it again. I know my idea of what it seems may be kind of crazy, sorry!

Is Tbird 3 beta, or is it okay to get it? I'm still using 2.0.0.4, and something happened a couple days ago that removed all the separators, ie New, Last Week, Old. Now all the mail is there with no separators, also changed it to Descending order. Time to change? Sue

Your mail in Mozilla Thunderbird, Outlook, Windows Mail, Outlook Express, Eudora or whichever email program you prefer is, unquestionably, great Ã¯Â¿Â½ unless, of course, you are not at the computer holding your mail but still want or need to access it.

I finally phrased my question so that Google found a similar query and solution (from 2006) that still worked 8 years later! In case this might help another user, here are the step from the Moderator at MozillaZine. Ã¢ÂÂClick on the imported address book name in the left hand pane. Now click on any name in the right hand pane and then use menu path Edit->Select All, or press Ctrl-A. Now drag and drop the data from the imported address book to the Personal Address Book. Once you have confirmed that everything has copied over properly you can delete the imported address book.Ã¢ÂÂ I would add that this didn't work smoothly until I deleted special lists/groups. Once they were removed, the whole address book previously under the Ã¢ÂÂThunderbird AddressesÃ¢ÂÂ name quickly and correctly transferred to Ã¢ÂÂPersonal Address BookÃ¢ÂÂ. I'm a happy camper.

This happened to be to an organization and I only know one of the people personally. The address for the one that didn't go was given to me and now I know it was given to me incorrectly. An O instead of an A in the name.

I wanted to know for sure if the other two were sent, and now I know they were.

Thanks to both of you for the replies.
