Thunderbird Portable

[FIXED] mimetypes.rdf bigger then 500 MB Thunderbird 2.0.0.17

Submitted by yta11p on October 23, 2008 - 3:22pm

I have the same problem as reported some days ago. I have used version 2.0.0.17. And as soon as I got an email with an attachment, mainly pdf-files, the program needs up to 10 minutes to start and the mimetypes.rdf file increases up to 500 MB or more. And the program crashes as it is not possible anymore to open emails containing an attachment. This is independent of using a notebook or USB device. It working sometimes to delete the mimetypes.rdf file, but this has worked out just a few times. Now, I changed back to 2.0.0.16 and everything is fine! What's wrong?

Portable Thunderbird crashed

Submitted by huberuae on October 23, 2008 - 6:45am

Dear Community,

I'm running TB Portable on a USB stick. Somehow TB has crashed - leaving all previous folders and mails blank, asking me to create new accounts. The entire size of the TB folder is still > 100 MB.

How can I restore all my mails of 3 different accounts?

Your help will be highly appreciated.

Br,

Hi! My first post here.

I'm using thunderbird email client version 2.0.0.17 (20080914) on my U3 flash drive.

It doesn't work in Windows Vista and XP (fresh installations).

I've tried windows update and the Windows XP is SP3 now. The problem still remains.

Please kindly give me a hand.

Thanks in advance.

AdditionalParameters=-profile "C:Path\to\your\profile"

TBP has turned into a CPU hog

I'm not sure what happened; Earlier this week TBP was running fine, but the last day or two it has been such a CPU that I have can't use it. When it is running it is using 90-95% of the CPU. I tried re-installing, but that didn't fix it. I don't remember updating any of my plug-ins recently, so I don't think that is it. Has anyone else see anything like this?

Thanks,
