Thunderbird Portable

Deleted folders return!

Submitted by fivish on August 13, 2009 - 9:18am

When I delete a folder in Localfolders it goes to the Trash folder.
There it can be deleted. But on firing up Thunderbird again, its back!
I tried using the Localfolder to import copies of my Outlook Express emails.
This worked, but I cant get rid of old folders.

HELP Thunderbird no longer opens - can't access my emails or history

Submitted by amanda.nairn on August 10, 2009 - 7:59am

I defragmented my thumbdrive in an effort to find more space and have somehow disabled thunderbird. All the necessary files and folders are still there but now it is opening to an empty screen. Any idea how to get it back? The saved emails are important, the address book more so. Help!

I'm not sure that this is the right place, but it says beta...

With the 3 beta 3, the threads don't seem to work.

When using the standard version (2.xxx) the threads show up, with the plus/minus button

With the beta, I don't see them.

Is it just me Pardon

Hello the community,

-> Any idea on how can I manage the problem ? I searched everywhere but found nothing Beee

Thanks for your help

Update problem

Submitted by go4saket on August 2, 2009 - 8:38am

Hello friends!

I am using Portable Thunderbird on a Win XP SP3 platform for some time. Recently I tried to update it to the latest version by clicking on the update link in the help menu. Although it downloaded the full software without a problem, it is not able to update the software. Everytime I start Thunderbird, it tried to install the downloaded version but fails saying

"One or more files could not be updated. Please make sure that all applications are closed and that you have permissions to modify files and then restart Thunderbird to try again"
