Should I update Thunderbird 2006?

Submitted by ottosykora on November 19, 2007 - 7:43am

I have managed to set up the TB with the enigma and gpg on my stick.

Now when I open TB, it asks me to install update, since also this has in its original a new version.
While this update was without any problems with the FF which is now on 2009 and runs still fine on the stick, I have heard that updating the TB might destroy the compatibility with Enigma/gpg.

Any infos about this?

Portable Thunderbird 1.5 problem

Submitted by Thunderbirdie on November 16, 2007 - 10:58am

Hello,
Can anyone help me with this:
After a windows xp crash, I can't access to my emails stored with TB.
In fact, Thunderbird opens, shows empty windows, and after a few seconds, closes itself without showing any emails.
PTB is installed on a portable HDD.
The appliaction path is:
K:\Framakey\programs\PortableThunderbird 15\profile\Mail\pop.xyz.net for example.
If there is a directory called "perso", i have these files:
- perso (without any extension) containing probably the emails - it has a very big size - some Mbits,
- perso.msf which size is small - approx. 100 or 200 kbits

Now Ive gone and done it .. cannot update help needed please....

Connecting to GMail

I recently installed TB portable on a USB drive. I set it up to connect to a GMail account. When I start TB portable, it tries to connect to pop.gmail.com, but the connection always times out. When I use the normal versin of TB installed on my laptop, it connects to GMail without problem. How can I make the connection smoothly with TB portable?

Run Thunderbird e-mail through SSL VPN

We are trying to launch PortableApps suit (specifically Mozila Thunderbird e-mail version 2.0.0.6) from USB thumb drive over Juniper's SSL VPN. We connect through SSL VPN utilizing Juniper's Secure Virtual Workspace (SVW) mode (SVW creates a protected workspace on the user's desktop, encrypts information that applications write to disk and then destroys all information pertaining to itself).
