Thunderbird Portable

I am using zh-tw.xpi language pack with Locale switcher in TB3 Portable. Right now everything OK, but the quick search of address book.

Filled the search blanket and no result in Chinese, but work well after changed back to English (orgrinal from protable version) I found that there is some quick search setting in about:config. But I don't know how to do.

Please anyone kindly help, thanks.

I have used Thunderbird for a long time, but I now need to send encrypted messages, and I am completely unaware of how to do so. I looked for a tutorial on Google, but everything seemed to require add-ons to Thunderbird. could someone tell me how to encrypt messages?

I read on Make Use Of that the latest Lightning works in TB3. It installs without complaint but when it starts up I get an error dialog box and

PortableApps - TB 3.0 - MozillaMailnews

Looks like TB 3.0 creates a folder (MozillaMailnews) in the TMP folder of the local machine. This is not due to a plug in. What else can I give you to help?

It appears that after restarting TB due to an extension change or whatnot, the launcher thinks TB is done and closes. While I haven't lost any data due to this (thankfully), seeing as the launcher usually doesn't clean up until Thunderbird closes, I doubt very much that this (launcher closing on restart) is the desired behavior.

Note that Notepad++ also has this issue (where it does cause issues), and I'm guessing FF does as well.

Hi. In Outlook Express and other programs when you type a link, whether it has http:// in front of it or just ends in a .com the text that is intended to be a link becomes underlined within the email writing software.

I wonder if some kind programmer could create a portable app to find and show the host computer outgoing server name? At internet cafes you can only see web mail pages, not their email program. And it can be embarrassing to ask other computer owners for it, especially when they aren't knowledgeable about computers and may be suspicious of your intentions.

In v2 - Portable Thunderbird asks on boot-up if I want to be online or off-line at start-up - usful for making sure copies have replicated properly etc.

Is there a way of setting this up in T/bird v3?

TIA all

Hello all,

When I run ThunderbirdPortable_3.0_English.paf.exe from my hard drive, I get the Open File - Security Warning dialog as if I'm trying to run the exe directly from a website. Previous versions (even the 2.0.0.23) did not do this. What might be causing this?

Cheers (and Happy New Year)

I down loaded and installed the new version of TB Portable over TB2 as instructed. Everything migrated perfectly: address book, accounts, emails, etc. I can send emails - no problem. However, TB3 will not check for new emails. Just to make sure I did it right I did a clean install on another USB stick, then imported my account settings using MoseBackup. Still no email checking. I re-installed TB2, and guess I'll stick with that until the bugs are worked out - even though it doesn't seem anyone else is having a problem. Any answers?
