TB 3.1.1 "What's New" Tab

Submitted by bouw2558 on August 2, 2010 - 11:29pm

Hi
Have just updated to 3.1.1.
This maybe a silly question, but how do I stop the "What's New" tab from opening every time I start it.
Is this happening to anyone else?
Thanks in advance

Just Updated to 3.1.2 same thing happening. If I don't shut the tab, the next time I open it 2 tabs open, and so on.
Will probably go back to 3.0.6 if no one has an answer.

Thanks

Thunderbird Downloading entire Yahoo Inbox

Submitted by KiwiKay on August 2, 2010 - 6:09pm

Something's happened, and I don't know whether to problem lies with Thunderbird or Yahoo, but I've been using this app for a long time (now have v. 3.1.1) and when I go to download my current mail, it starts to download all of it (over 20,000 msgs). I kept restarting app and computer, etc, and emailed Yahoo for support (no reply after a week). Finally I just let it download since I couldn't get to my recent mail before the oldest was downloaded). I can't simply access yahoo online because I need use of my templates, etc that I've setup in Thunderbird.

Import gives multiple copies of inbox

Submitted by SteveSimmons on July 30, 2010 - 8:52am

I've just started out with PortableApps (great idea and great software btw) but I've hit a problem with Thunderbird. I have a substantial Profile folder (lots of mails) from my 'full-fat' thunderbird installation and wanted to import that into Thunderbird Portable. I seem to have imported it OK in so far as the mails are in place and the accounts seem to have come across OK but I am seeing multiple (eight) 'Inbox' folders. If I click on any of them, I see the same content (i.e. my received mails!).

Two Thunderbird windows appears after launch

Submitted by Just Me Ger on July 22, 2010 - 3:06pm

Hi!

I have a strange issue since I updated my Thunderbird to 3.1.1. When I start Thunderbird it is launched two times means two Thunderbird windows appear.
I have no clue how I can solve the problem. I've tried to downgrade to 3.1 but the problem is still there. Seems my profile folder is messed up. If I copy the profile folder to a "new" Thunderbird portable I get the same problem.
Any ideas?

Thank!

TBP3.1: Poor design of inbox/draft/sent folders.

Submitted by Dr.Mu on July 21, 2010 - 5:14am

After opening an email file, it's not obvious and easy to get back to other folders. Saving the label of the opened file is not a good idea either. I have to keep pressing for a long time to get back to the left-most folder label before clicking on it to get back to access other folder labels such as inbox/draft/sent/trash. You should display those labels distinctly somewhere in the window.

Multiple Calendars causes Master Password to be requested Multiple Times

Submitted by tsneller on July 20, 2010 - 12:20pm

I set up 6 different Google calendars in Thunderbird v3.0.4. When I then restarted Thunderbird, the Master Password was requested for Thunderbird itself (Email), and then for each Calendar - 7 times in all. I have the Google Calendar provider installed.

I then removed several calendars, and the number of prompts decreased.
