Where are unsent messages stored?

Hello,

I have been using Thunderbird for a little while (version 78.10.1 - 64bits) and my email accounts are configured as POP.

I just noticed that if an email fails to send, it is not saved anywhere and I have to rewrite the entire message.

I have searched for a solution but found nothing on this specific issue.

I do have a "messages waiting" folder but it remains empty and only works when I explicitly click "send later" during message creation.

In short, if an error occurs during sending, the message seems to be just erased and lost.

If anyone has a solution, I would be grateful.

Thank you very much and have a great day everyone.

Configuration: Windows / Edge 90.0.818.62

    Hello @ulisse,

    The messages sent are stored in the folder designated in the account settings / Copies and folders, whether the message fails to send or not.
    By default, it is the sent folder of the sending account.
