Thunderbird Portable

Two Thunderbird windows appears after launch

Submitted by Just Me Ger on July 22, 2010 - 3:06pm

Hi!

I have a strange issue since I updated my Thunderbird to 3.1.1. When I start Thunderbird it is launched two times means two Thunderbird windows appear.
I have no clue how I can solve the problem. I've tried to downgrade to 3.1 but the problem is still there. Seems my profile folder is messed up. If I copy the profile folder to a "new" Thunderbird portable I get the same problem.
Any ideas?

Thank!

TBP3.1: Poor design of inbox/draft/sent folders.

Submitted by Dr.Mu on July 21, 2010 - 5:14am

After opening an email file, it's not obvious and easy to get back to other folders. Saving the label of the opened file is not a good idea either. I have to keep pressing for a long time to get back to the left-most folder label before clicking on it to get back to access other folder labels such as inbox/draft/sent/trash. You should display those labels distinctly somewhere in the window.

Multiple Calendars causes Master Password to be requested Multiple Times

Submitted by tsneller on July 20, 2010 - 12:20pm

I set up 6 different Google calendars in Thunderbird v3.0.4. When I then restarted Thunderbird, the Master Password was requested for Thunderbird itself (Email), and then for each Calendar - 7 times in all. I have the Google Calendar provider installed.

I then removed several calendars, and the number of prompts decreased.

(( strange, i thought i had posted this two hours ago, now vanished. if anyone
finds it somewhere in the depths of the forums, sorry, but pls let me know ))

installing and running Tbird 2.0.024 on a number of W98 computer works without
a hitch, several tried for long time now.

trying the same with the portable version, same release, again on several computers,
installs, but when trying to run, always comes up with the "Illegal Command" error,
and then closes. never managed to get one running.

Thunderbird Portable used in Libraries

Submitted by genlogin on July 13, 2010 - 12:55pm

Hi All,

I recently had to close my account with my ISP, and had to access my email via the local library. I have tried my portable thunderbird, but no avail as their firewall does not allow comunication.
I want to use this because I receive a lot of emails, and the library only gives me 2 hours a day to use, plus you have to be on the line early in the morning otherwise you don't get a go until 11 am.
Since I have to be at work it is mostly impossible.
So, does anyone knows how to use a technique to allow thunder to read my emails?

Thanks in advance, Gen.

Thunderbird stopped downloading emails

Submitted by inlandsurfer1 on July 11, 2010 - 1:12pm

For some reason Thunderbird all the sudden stopped downloading new emails from my accounts. I have for accounts and they stopped downloading all at once. I have tried downloading from each account individually with no luck. I do use my blackberry to view emails, but its not erasing them and all the new emails that I'm getting are still on my individual accounts online. What's causing this and how do I fix it?
