Thunderbird Portable

i request an automated reply for thunderbird , rather than i have to filter the folder to thanks a lot

TBP ver 1.5.0.5 PortableApps.com

Notified of Auto-Update.

TB incremental update failed. Then TB tried to do the full update. After 1hr. I had to shut down flash drive so I clicked hide update and then shut down TB and drive.

Restarted TB next time and ver is still 1.5.0.5 and the "Check for Updates" shows that the current update is paused and does not give any cancel or restart update options.

I know John will probably come out with a new version, but I was wondering if anyone else had the same problem or not.

I have portable Thunderbird on a USB stick; Just now after typing in my password I see at the bottom of the screeen "downlaoding 1 of 1 message" then there's nothing in my inbox; this happened on at least three occasions in the past week. The other times I had one less message in my inbox than the download messgae indicated.

Am I losing messages or is Thunderbird incorrectly saying I have messages that aren't there?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Got a notification today to upgrade to the latest version of Thunderbird 1.5.0.7. The update downloaded and then crashed while installing on the next launch. Now when I try to launch Portable Thunderbird the process runs for about 5-10 seconds and then just disappears, no error messages or anything. Renaming my thunderbird profile and trying to launch did not make any difference either.

Disk space is an important issue, especially with portable apps. Thunderbird supports a disk space saving feature but it does not seem to be working in Thunderbird Portable.

Click
Tools -> account settings

Expand the "localfolders" tree in the left pane and click on "disk space"

I tried to enable "delete all but the last xx messages" but it does not work.

I'm using tbird at work.I cannot access my new mail. I get the error message cannot connect to earthlink. I'm on a T1 ATT connection with XP Professional SP2.The default mail app is Outlook. Is there a way to configure the app to work?

Can Thunderbird be configured as a portable app for Linux?

I´m currently dependent on a Windows 98SE machine, and it crashes every time I open Portable Thurnderbird--it just announces that the application has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. Any thoughts on how this can be remedied?

OK...the MD5 Hash for 1.5.0.5 + Enigmail/GPG on the download page for 1.5.0.5 does *not* match the MD5 hash I get when I crunch it. The hash, as it appears on the page is:

cbfe358b220b8960ccd3e20a8733e736

...and the hash, as I calculate it, is:

34cc751a77c20fbc582844629fdf6c77

I did a search on this and found nothing. And yes, I'm one of the "geek squad" who checks things like this, but it's only because I'm paranoid.

Can anybody confirm, and if the maintainer happens to read this (hi, John!) can you please verify the correct MD5 sum?

I've just newly found this site after purchasing a U3 flash drive (didn't mean to), and I absolutely love the PortableApps.com model over the U3 model.

I'm thinking of buying a new Kingston flash drive. I am looking forward to:

** Kingston 2GB USB 2.0 DataTraveler II (Part n° KUSBDTII/2GB )
or
** Kingston Data Traveler II Plus - Migo Edition 2GB (Part n° DTII+M/2GB )

Anyone has had any experience with TBP and U3, Migo or secured flash drives?

And with any of these drives?? I'm excited about the secure or encryption features.

Thanks a lot for your help.
Sergio.

PS: And I have to add that John has made a superb job with Portable TB!! Thanks man!
