Thunderbird Portable

TB Portable Performance on an USB Stick is not very good..
Are there some tricks how you can improve the performance?

HI, I'm using portable thunderbird to receive news. I'm using it in my harddisk, so, there's a lot free space in my disk.
But I encounterd an error message box reported:
A news ( NNTP) error occurred: NO spaces left on device writing smstore file--throttling.

Did you see this alert before? How can I fix this problems? thanks!

I logged into Thunderbird portable. The data is saved on our network, not on a memory stick. My hard drive crashed mid-session. Now I cannot log back in from any other terminal.
HELP!

Had to reinstall my profile folder using my backup and everything is fine except I lost all my calendar appts. I have the original profile but don't know which file is my calendar. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Stan

Hello,

I have a Cruzer Micro 4GB. I had Mozilla Thunderbird Installed on my U3 Launchpad a couple of days ago but yesterday my computer hibernated while I was using my U3 and it caused a mess up with one of the games I was playing and I formatted the flash drive. Unknowingly, I messed up my whole U3 drive and all the program files were deleted and I was advised by Sandisk support to uninstall and re-install the U3 launchpad which I have done and all other programs as well.

While using Thunderbird Portable on someone else's computer, I think that some data may be kept on the drive. This computer is set to use the Windows XP style login screen (the one that lists the users). After I finished with Thunderbird Portable and logged out (with messages still in my Inbox), on the login screen, it displayed how many unread messages there were and on which account (and then showed my email address if you clicked it). This was with my USB flash drive removed from the PC.

So if I have sigs and music files that sound off for the alarms, where would I put them so that when I do backups, they get saved along with it. I put the sigs in the Data folder, and I suppose I may put the *.wav files there as well so that it saves when I do a "App Data" backup?

All files and mail disappeared after an update. Can anybody suggest a recover method?
Thanks Eelco

I read a very small thread about the paths used with Thunderbird Portable, but it was from 2006, so I'm hoping some additonal information has surfaced. Using TB (2.00.12)...

Since plugging in a portable drive (USB) will not net you the same drive letter, from computer to computer, I've noticed that some stings (under about.config) do not update the drive letter to match that of the USB at the time. For example,

Mail.root.none
Mail.root.pop3
Webmail.logging.commc.FileLocation
Mail.server.server1.directory

Hey - new here. I have TB Portable on a flash drive. It works great on my laptop but when I tried to use it on my PC at work it just searches but won't download any mail. Any ideas? TIA - Kari
