Problems with Thunderbird email client caused by Vade Secure Cloud security

bigjohnnym — Tue, 12 Aug 2025 11:15:41 GMT

Is anybody having problems, as of last night, with something called Vade Secure messing up all talktalk emails? Or is this a Thunderbird problem?

@bigjohnnym Thank you for your prompt response and for confirming that your Webmail is unaffected. I recommend reaching out to Thunderbird, as they may be able to assist you with your query.

bigjohnnym — Tue, 12 Aug 2025 12:26:05 GMT

Mandisa,

I am already doing that, but I needed to confirm that Talktalk had not inplemented an additional cloud security system, Vade Secure. Can I assume that TT know nothing about this, please?

Re: Problems with Thunderbird email client caused by Vade Secure Cloud security

Mandisa-TT — Tue, 12 Aug 2025 12:29:42 GMT

@bigjohnnym I can confirm that there are currently no incidents reported regarding the implementation of an additional cloud security system, such as Vade Secure, by TalkTalk. As of now, there are no known issues related to this matter.

Hi, people!

I asked the question on the Thunderbird community/support site this afternoon, and a very helpful guy called Wayne (I'm sure he's helped me before) suggested the cause / solution. I'm using Bit Defender security software, which he suspected, and he suggested I should change a setting within the ONLINE THREAT PROTECTION: Change the Online Webscan from On to OFF. I guess it conflicts with their existing cloud-based systems. Restart the PC, Start up Thunderbird, and (if you like) send yourself a test message. Voila! Problem solved!

Thank you for sharing this information @bigjohnnym, I hope it is helpful to others as well.

Re: Problems with Thunderbird email client caused by Vade Secure Cloud security

@bigjohnnym

That should be viewed as a temporary solution, unless you are happy to turn off real time scanning of web traffic, or have some other application doing that.

Re: Problems with Thunderbird email client caused by Vade Secure Cloud security

bigjohnnym — Thu, 14 Aug 2025 08:16:19 GMT

I agree, but it works until Bit Defender fixes the bug.

I had a conversation yesterday with UK Bit Defender support, and sent them diagnostic info. The support guy was apparently aware of some sort of problem, so he said he would escalate it from his end.

I think they will fix it pretty quickly, as there have only been small updates for a while now.

There's not much I can do if you using client to access your emails, I would advise you use webmail till this is sorted out. Thanks
