Thunderbird Portable

I have recently upgraded to the latest version of Thunderbird Portable and since then I cannot connect to my GMail to pull my mail down into Thunderbird.

I can connect to the internet without any issues but it is not connecting to my GMail accounts to pull in my emails for my personal account an one for my business account.

Has anyone had this issue or is experiencing this issue.

I am a new user of portable apps. I currently have firefox and thunderbird 2.0.0.6 installed on a thumb drive. Both work flawlessly when connected directly to the internet via DSL. Firefox works great when attached to a network with a proxy server after I made the configuration changes in tools|options|etc...

I made the identical changes for the proxy in thunderbird, but it doesn't work. The connection is timing out. Again, no problem when no proxy is involved and the identical proxy settings work with firefox. Any advice would be appreciated.

I love TB Portable, but I haven't been able to figure out how to keep my toolbar settings (e.g. order and size of the icons at top). Every time I close TB, it reverts to the default settings.

Any help much appreciated. Thanks!

I have discovered that, while downloading new messages, there is a file "newmsg" that is saved on the hard drive in the current user's temp directory (\Documents and Settings\[user]\Local Settings\Temp\). It seems to be a placeholder for the current message being downloaded. When the message is downloaded, "newmsg" is removed and apparently imported into the Thunderbird mailbox. then, "newmsg" is recreated for the next incoming message. I have opened up the "newmsg" file in Notepad, and it is the full e-mail, headers and all!

Hi all,

When TBP launches it sometimes gives the error below. Then i install it again and it begins working. if anyone knows the answer i will be appriciated.

Thanks in advance..

The installer you are trying to use is corrupted or incomplete.
This could be the result of a damaged disk, a failed download or a virus.

You may want to contact the author of this installer to obtain a new copy.

It may be possible to skip this check using the /NRDC command line switch

I have a VB6 application that I run from my portable hard drive. I would like to send emails from within that VB app via Portable Thunderbird. I've seen ways that involve making Thunderbird the default email client, however, that is not an option for me. Has anybody done this? If so, please post a VB6 code example.
Thanks, Mark

Hi!
I have a problem with the opening of the files saved from mail attachments. Access to the mailbox via IMAP. After downloading the file to my hard drive, it is becoming less original 10-30Kb. The downloaded file is not open, because he damaged. Using another mail client (such as Microsoft Outlook Express 6), there are no such problems.

Have used program Portable Thunderbird 2.0.0.6 (English version) without additional settings, and plug-ins (as is). A program install on a portable USB hard drive.

I have just downloaded what I thought was an updated version of Thunderbird (v2) from the Portible Apps site.
It is not recognised when I use my U3 drive to load it. I stored it on my hard drive and it does not seem to be in the right forward.

Any offers of help

I have followed all the set up steps, and have enabled POP on my gmail account. Thunderbird won't connect. Always says server times out.

Thoughts?

I assume it is this file:

\ThunderbirdPortable\Data\profile\chrome\userChrome.css

I have been trying to mod this simply with

/* Change Browser Fonts */
* { font-size: 14pt !important;
font-family: tahoma !important; }

and there is no effect on my TB - any thoughts??

Is this the wrong file? wrong syntax???

Is there a chromedit that will mod TB Port userChrome

help?
