Claws Mail

Submitted by gwt10 on March 5, 2020 - 12:16pm

Since the Thunderbird team seems to be uncooperative with PortableApps.com and giving assistance to Mr. Haller, might I suggest a portable fork for Claws Mail?

https://www.claws-mail.org/

It's free, open source, carries multiple accounts, is continually updated and looks like a good alternative to Thunderbird.

It's also is an offshoot of Sylpheed, which hasn't been updated here in two years.

Don't Sleep

"Don't Sleep" is a program that prevents the PC from sleeping, and can add various conditions.
It is from the same developer as Q-Dir, which has already been added to the PortableApps Store.
It is developed as a Portable App and has the same license as Q-Dir.
It would be more convenient if you could install it from the PortableApps Store.

Thunderbird 68.x

I'm wondering why there's no release version of Thunderbird newer than 60.9.1

I know that there's a PortableApps version of 73.0 that's available, but that's a beta. At this writing, the most recent released version of Thunderbird is 68.4.2.

Blisk browser

I've just become aware of the blisk browser. It's a developer oriented browser based on Chrome or Chromium. It's freeware.
Its developer orientation allows it to show multiple views of the same page side by side for different devices. That's really useful.

I'm not sure if you could get it licensed for Portable Apps. Their license says you can distribute it, but not alter it.
Here's the home page: blisk.io. Here's the license: https://blisk.io/eula
