TB3 Losing Emails

Submitted by sirbanks on March 2, 2010 - 4:50am

OK, I noticed this some time ago but thought I had done something wrong. Now just watched it happen and it was not me. Sometimes my emails are disappearing, not all emails just some of them. It appears that the entire 'thread' of emails from a sender will be deleted also, including any responses I may have sent. It appears to be happening when the folders are compacted. I compact at least once per day. Today I had received an email that I had not yet opened. When prompted to compact, I did, and then the email was gone, nowhere to be found.

Thunderbird Leaving Traces Behind

Submitted by usbtastic on February 28, 2010 - 5:40pm

I'm finding that Thunderbird Portable 3.0.2 is creating and leaving behind a directory behind after it is closed: C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Crash Reports

Sometimes it leaves a text file named InstallTime20100216161403 which contains a numeric string.

This happens in Vista 32bit and Win 7 32bit.

Anyone else seen this?

Troubles with TB 3.01 under Linux/Wine

Submitted by darkstar on February 23, 2010 - 3:52pm

Just did an upgrade of my entire Portable Apps Suite and have ran into troubles using Thunderbird under SuSE11.2 Linux / wine. Seems ok under Windows Vista. Under Linux, emails are only partially viewable. Any previous replys will show, but new content does not appear. just white space. Highlighting and doing a copy paste does move content into the clipboard so I know the content of the email is there. Also can see it if I view the source. But it does not display.

Master Password Required after update

Submitted by Tickie6 on February 22, 2010 - 1:59pm

Master password required to use 3 after update.

I tried to remove my master password with this from Thunderbirds website.

Thunderbird 2 and above: Choose Tools – Error Console, paste the expression: openDialog("chrome://pippki/content/resetpassword.xul") and press the Evaluate button. That will open a dialog asking you if you want to reset your password.

Problem, Thunderbird errors out I click "OK" to remove the master password. Then when I restart all the old passwords are still there.

Is there a diff way to do it with the portable apps...?

Thanks

Is Thunderbird a HTML reader ?

Submitted by patrick013 on February 22, 2010 - 12:19pm

Is Thunderbird an HTML email reader ? No matter which reader I use, Windows Live, Thunderbird, or SeaMonkey, I cannot view email offline with images displayed. Gmail looks great but offline reading at home is completely imageless. I'm letting images thru without blocking, etc. but it just doesn't want to work offline.

Is there a configuration switch somewhere I am missing ?

THX.

language

Submitted by tom.forrester@b... on February 22, 2010 - 8:31am

Over a year ago I upgraded Thunderbird Portable and my language setting changed from UK to American style, e.g. my waist basket became "trash".
I have just updated Thunderbird Portable to the latest version and it still has the American style. is there a way I can change it back to English/British?

Many thanks in advance
