Thanks for joining the thread, @AB_MT. One common cause of email issues in QuickBooks can be version compatibility.
To assist you further, is there a specific error message you're seeing? Knowing more details can help pinpoint the issue and provide the best solution.
In the meantime, if you're using the 64-bit version of Thunderbird, try switching to the 32-bit version and setting it as your default email client. If that doesn't work, uninstall Thunderbird and reinstall the latest version.

Send a test email from QuickBooks. If you still see an error, toggle your preferences.
