Thunderbird Portable

Is it Okay to 'Install' PortApps Thunderbird v60.0 Over the Top of PortApps Thunderbird v52.x?

Submitted by Abraxian on August 14, 2018 - 3:30pm

Just wondering. I did install v60.0 over the top of v52.9.1 and everything seems fine ('cept FireTray addon doesn't work anymore, bummer). But I'm thinking that as v60.0 is a major revision if it's better to start right from scratch again. (Want to avoid that if I can as lots of tweaks to replicate again if I have to start from scratch.)

Add ons

I am very pleased with Thunderbird portable. I have several hundred duplicate messages after a major email migration. I'm trying to download and use the "remove duplicate messages" add on. Does that add on work with portable? If so, how do I install it? Thank you - Marion

Portable Thunderbird v60.0 only x86?

Submitted by Screemer on August 9, 2018 - 9:35am

Hi,

I really don't post allot here at this forum but now I felt I had to ask a question about the new Thunderbird v60.0 release.
Wouldn't it be possible to have both x86 and x64 in the same installer?
As it is now it seem to only install x86 version.

Since Mozilla finally seem to have released an official x64 version I would really love to be able to use it. Smile

Version 60

Thunderbird 60 doesn't work properly. 6 out of my 10 add-ons don't work with this version which makes it impossible for me to do what i want to do with Thunderbird.
How can i get the previous version back?

I forget if I saw this in tb before or it's new.
In Synchchronization & Storage - Message Synchonizing, do I have the "Keep messages for his account on this computer" checked or unchecked? It is currently checked. It is for my gmail account, imap.
I use tb 52.8.0 on my usb stick to multiple computers

As of today, when I open ThunderbirdPortable none of my accounts, e-mails, calandar etc. are there and I'm asked to create a new account, i.e. it behaves as though I've never used ThunderbirdPortable before. In the ThunderbirdPortable folder on the USB stick it runds for there is a profile folder present but for some reason the program has stopped accessing/linking to it. How do I get ThunderbirdPortable to open with my profile functioning?
Thank you.

windows search for emails?

Submitted by Bolanger on June 20, 2018 - 1:46pm

Hello,

I am struggling to use the windows search function for emails within Thunderbird's mbox files. The windows search function simply doesn't work with TBP.

In the settings of Thunderbird, there is a button that will allow the windows search function to search within emails, as well. I can check the checkbox, but after I restarted TBP, the checkmark is gone. I have tried this in Windows 7 and Windows 10, with various TBP versions down to v24... and always had the same issue.
