Thunderbird Portable

When I empty the trash, I would like to have the most recently-deleted items remain in the Trash just a little longer, in case I want to look at them again.

But if I use the Empty Trash command, all of them go away. Whether it keeps them a week or two weeks, or even just a couple of days, I don't care. I just would like a little margin.

I don't know what mechanisms are in place to allow this kind of customization.

Any ideas?

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?

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.

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.

hey there,

is there any option to load the mailprofile of thunderbird from an other device!?

(it works fine with miranda)

€d!t:

there is an option but didnt work with the platform!?

put the ThunderbirdPortable.ini in the folder where the ThunderbirdPortable.exe is and edit it like this:

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

then start the thunderbird.exe manualy - not the ThunderbirdPortable.exe
...

Hi,

why eat ThunderbirdPortable.exe over 40 MB! ram? And stay after starting thunderbird?
My Thunderbird need only 23 MB RAM.

Can i do something? (force thunderbirdportable.exe to end after starting thundbird, or need less memory?)

Best Regard,

i have been using tb for 3 months and have properly installed the add ons, as described on the site. when i open it the message "sending of user name did not succed. Mail server localhost responded: hotmail.com is a unsupported domain"

Its weird because when i open an previous back up of my pendrive on my pc it opens normally! I just don't know what else i can do.

Please help!

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,

Don

can't select a specific sound to play when new messages arrive...under 'tools', 'options', 'when new messages arrive'...if i select 'use the following sound file', nothing happens when i click the browse button...
