Thunderbird Portable

I have Portable Thunderbird running on my USB drive, and have Enigmail and GnuPG working fine with it. Problem is, if I take it to any other computer than the one where I originally set it up the GPG stuff doesn't work.

I downloaded the new edition with Enigmail/GPG support, but the directory structure is totally different, and the help.html file does not seem to address the new structure. I need help in importing my mailboxes, address book, and keyrings.

TIA

Hello all:

I think these portable applications are wonderful! I have tried Thunderbird and Firefox so far, and I'm having a concern with Thunderbird:

I am using this application at a place I am working at for my education. These folks are letting me use their computers, and I thought having a portable application such as Portable Thunderbird would allow me to have access to my school e-mail.

It works great, but when I eject my flash drive and logout, the message "x unread message" appears on the login page.

If there is a way to remove this, I would appreciate learning how to do it. It is embarrassing to me that it appears. I don't want my preceptor thinking I am downloading files onto his computer.

Does anyone know where the mail.dll went in Portable TB 1.5? I really want to remove the annoying "-- " divider TB places above all signature.

The topic on mozillazine dating back to Aug 03 display a solution by editing the mail.dll file, however i can't seem to find it. Below is a direct quote from the topic

You can get rid of that if you edit file mail.dll. Change "-- " to " " (three blanks) on ONE place.

I've posted same question on mozillazine, but no response, andy ideas?

Has anyone else been experincing the same thing. For some reason TB (not all the time, but more often than not) opens up twice, and i can't quite put my finger on why.

I can't even open up two instances of TB normally (ie. click it twice), so i know i havn't clicked on it twice. This seemed to happen in the TB 1.07 too, but thougth it was fixed, as it only started again recently.
I have the following extensions installed.

contacts sidebar (1.07 and 1.5, easy get mail button (1.07 and 1.5), minimise to tray (1.07 and 1.5), profile password (1.07 and 1.5), signature switch, display mail user agent extensions, reminder fox, foxclocks, tbstats, quicktext, folderflags

In the new version of Pthunderbird a registry setting is added at startup and at closing the app. Here at the computers editing the registry can't be done and will result in an error.

Is there a way to turn it off?
(yeah i know i will be asked the default mail application question, but its better than everytime those errors.)

I got many attachment in email. so attachment icons were full of screen, How to change Attachment pane height?

I have checked inside the app. and all three check boxes are unticked. What setting do I need to tweak so as NOT to have Portable Thunderbird check to see if it's the default mail app.?

Thanks.

How I can import the thunderbird settings (mail accounts, extensions, etc..)?

There have a extension to send/synchronize new portablethunderbird mails to the normal thunderbird on the pc?

I've got an email address in my inbox that has an attachment but the attachment icon for that message only displays when that message is selected or if any other message with an attachment is selected. When a message having no attachment is selected, the icon for the original meassage disappears. I'm not losing attachments but its confusing.
