ThunderbirdPortable - Order in dowloading e-mails from several accounts.

Dear,

since some weeks ago my ThunderbirdPortable installed on my USB Drive used to download e-mails from my four accounts following an order I liked: first my main account, then the others.

But now the order is changed, and my main account "slid down".

Seems a tiny matter, but this quite slows down the whole operation...

How can I come back to the previous order, or better control this order? Maybe something in the config sheet?

Thanks.

p.s. On the page dedicated to the Accounts (maybe "Account Options" or something similar, in Italian is "Impostazioni Account...") the accounts are well ordered: first the main, the the others.

Default account

Try this:
Tools>Account Settings>Select desired account>Account Actions (at bottom of panel)>Set as default

The default account is first when mail is collected.

Otherwise (for advanced users):

Ok, thanks.

Dear Neutron,

thank you for your suggestions. In fact I opened Account Settings, and saw that my main account already is also the default one. But I will read the link with advanced setting up. It seems very useful.

Have ThunderbirdPortable Closed

Be sure to have ThunderbirdPortable closed when making any manual changes to configuration files.

Oh, and good luck!
