Thunderbird Portable

Hi guys

I know this is a base thunderbird issue but I find help is faster forthcoming than at other sites. Basically I need to install the SwitchProxy addon for Thunderbird so I access my email from my new job site.

I tried installing the night tester tools but that too requires Thunderbird 3 something.

Basically how was it I hack the rdf? I recall doing it with Firefox but can't recall how or find instructions. Thanks for you help guys.

sorry to sound like an idiot but how do I make a signature for all of my sent E-mails?

Hello,
I am using portable apps (v1.0.0.0) with Thunderbird (v2.0.0.19) running from a USB flash drive.

However, I noticed that whenever I delete any emails that none of the memory is reclaimed. Therefore my usb drive is almost completely full.

Is there some setting I am missing or is this a known issue?

Thank You,
frankmarco

When using TB/Properties/Server Settings/Local Directory a specific drive letter is specified for the folder path. For TB on a desktop or laptop this is fine but for PortableApps TB is there a way to specify the PortableApps TB folder path with the system changing the drive letter to match the location of the flash drive PortableApps is on for the machine it is running on. PA is a great app but when the flash drive is plugged into different machines it is not always assigned the same drive letter. It can be E on a basic machine or G, N, O, etc.

I have a problem logging into TB, I put my password in and comes back with "sending the password did not succeed. Mailserver responded: login failed.

I know my password is correct my username is correct and now I am at a loss.

It was going fine the other day!

Hope someone can help

I have suspected this problem for some time but never quite sure if it is or its just me.

What I think is happening is sometimes emails that are there and i have not deleted them just disapear. they are not in the trash folder or any of the others.

NOw what is up with that.

My thunderbird version types its text at the bottom of the message and I am used to it replying at the top. Is there any way that I can fix this?

Hi folks,

I am running Thunderbirds 2.0.0.19 on an old laptop hard disk which I plug into the usb port of a laptop and a desktop. I am experiencing strange fonts when I run Thunderbird Portable on a my desktop.

The laptop is Dell Latitude 1400 by 1050, 96 dpi screen where Thunderbird
displays just fine and a generic desktop 1280 by 960, 96 dpi, where the
message pane displays what looks like the first subject over the second
subject and so on down the pane. This 'double display' of the text in both the Subject column and sender column makes it essentially unreadable.

I just happened to be using Search to find all the biggest files on the C: drive (leave filename blank, make size over 30000), when I came upon something that surprised the heck outta me:

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\1****rar.default\Mail\Local Folders

This file contained ALL my old OE mail, including my huge Sent folder which goes back to 2004.

The filedate of 10/08 agrees, as I remember it, with downloading Thunderbird Portable, installing it to a flashdrive, and importing the WAB & all old mail to the flashdrive.

I would like know the way I can suppress the splash screen when I enter in Thunderbird

Thank very much
