Portable Data

Hello!

I'm currently "tuning" my thunderbird; create a folder-structure, adding add-ons etc.

Now I wanna add a custom notification-sound for new mails. My problem: I assume that, if I would only choose a sound on my external drive, the sound can't be played in case that the drive get an other letter on an other pc; for e.g. My Mp3-Player has the letter "G:" on my PC, on an other PC this letter is already defined for an other drive so my Mp3-Player would use the Letter "H:". Now the path to the sound can't be found because the sound doesn't exist on the other drive thats now accessable under the letter "G:".

I read that you can use "relative Paths" in Thunderbird: \\profile oder something like that. Can someone explain me how this relative paths work? Thanks in advance!

P.S.: Excuse my bad english, im from germany and just in the 9th class.

Just

save the sound inside the Portable Thunderbird Data folder and set it up to play as usual, Thunderbird launcher will take care of the rest... I did it with my signatures txt file a long time ago and it works with even me notice it.

If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port,
and the bus is interrupted as a very last resort,
and the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abort,
then the socket packet pocket has an error to report Biggrin
