Thunderbird Portable

Two problems after transferring profile - Solved

Submitted by PhoenixRising on November 30, 2007 - 7:32am

I'm new to PortableApps and I love 'em.

Set up TBird and copied my profile from Thunderbird to PortableTB. When I restarted PortableTB I noticed two problems.

First, there is a red message at the bottom of the Thunderbird window - menu id="offlineMenuItem" insertafter="trashMenuSeparator" label="&offlineMenu.label;" accesskey="offlineMenu.accesskey;"----^. I have no idea where to start looking for the problem.

Running Thunderbird through a Proxy-Server

Submitted by buschwo on November 22, 2007 - 3:32am

I'm running Thunderbird portable and Firefox portable through a Proxy-Server, which requires a user-ID and password on every internet access. Firefox does this perfectly, Thunderbird doesn't do and only returns "failed to connect to pop3 Server". Is there any way to adjust this with about:config?
Thanks for help.

Setting account trouble

Submitted by Wessun on November 22, 2007 - 3:19am

Hi,

I migrated recently from portable Thunderbird by Framakey (Let's call it A) to the same by PortableApps ( as B).
The only way I found to keep my profile was to copy the whole previous profile folder from A to the profile location in B.
I now run B fine, except that I'm unable to set new user account. I can open the Account settings, but cannot validate my choices (the OK button doesn't answer, but the cancel is OK) and therefore set any new account or changes to previous account.

Should I update Thunderbird 2006?

Submitted by ottosykora on November 19, 2007 - 7:43am

I have managed to set up the TB with the enigma and gpg on my stick.

Now when I open TB, it asks me to install update, since also this has in its original a new version.
While this update was without any problems with the FF which is now on 2009 and runs still fine on the stick, I have heard that updating the TB might destroy the compatibility with Enigma/gpg.

Any infos about this?
