How to Fix: Thunderbird: One Inbox, Multiple AccountsĪlthough it is possible to have one inbox using both POP3 and IMAP accounts together, I suggest you use IMAP for all your email accounts as most service providers use IMAP almost exclusively now.īesides that, IMAP is much more convenient considering it can be used on With POP3, there is no synchronization of emails across multiple devices, which means emails aren't shared across multiple devices. With POP3, emails are stored on the email server until you check for new email once that is done, emails are emptied off the server and downloaded onto your local machine. You can use IMAP on any device / email program / web interface, and the layout of your emails should always appear similar on all devices.

With IMAP, messages stay on the server unless you choose to download them to a local machine. The most notable difference between POP and IMAP is that IMAP allows you to view messages on an email server and then sync those messages with a local device (computer, tablet, smartphone, for example). One inbox for multiple accounts in Thunderbird is to first make all the accounts use the IMAP protocol (Internet Message Access Protocol) instead of POP3 (Post Office Protocol 3), which is an older protocol.įirst, let's talk about the differences between the two. One Inbox: Using IMAP instead of POP3Īfter fiddling around with Thunderbird and a bit of research, I believe that the best way to configure For those who keep their inboxes squeaky clean, however, having one inbox in Thunderbird certainly has an appeal. I should also mention that making one primary inbox for multiple accounts won't make much sense to anyone that does not manage their inbox / sort their emails regularly. I wondered the same thing, as I have a similar configuration. Thunderbird so everything goes into one single inbox? It would make my life so much easier! " The IMAP accounts have their own 'Inbox', 'Sent', 'Deleted items', etc, whereas the POP3 emails end up in my 'Local Inbox'. Some accounts are set up with POP3, others with IMAP. I have a question! I have multiple email accounts that I use with Thunderbird one issue I find is that it's difficult to figure out Don't use automatic deletion when comparing only by source or line count! * When selecting both a subfolder and its parent, all messages in the subfolder will be marked as duplicates.Thanks for your articles on Thunderbird. Bugs: * Comparing messages by source or line count is still buggy, could mark messages falsely as duplicates. * Optionally keep either the bigger, smaller, unread or first or last found message. * Optional automatic deletion (without the dialog showing the duplicates, use with care!). * Supported Languages: en-US, de-DE, de-LU, es-ES, fr-FR, it-IT, ja-JP, nl-NL, pt-BR, ru-RU, uk-UA * Easy to use and fast (1000 messages per second). * Manually adjust the selection of messages to be deleted. * Examine duplicates before deleting them.
It allows you to configure what you want to compare (Sender, Message-ID, Subject etc.). from merging folders or downloading messages several times) you can use this tool to find and remove them by choosing "Remove Duplicate Messages" from the context menu. This is the abandoned Remove Duplicate Messages add-on, rewritten for Thunderbird 68.
Please use Remove Duplicate Messages (Alternate) for Thunderbird 78 and higher. Development for this add-on has stopped, there will be no more working versions.
