Thunderbird Portable

I had it plugged into a Mac for other things on the HD then I pulled it out w/o doing the safely remove hardware and put it in a laptop and now no emails show up and it keeps asking me to create a account. also on a side note the address book is still there just all emails and account settings are gone!

Thanks so much

hi

At my work the use outlook 2003. (exchange and offline folder)
I use it for my agenda and email program.
Now i have a usb stick with thund portable
I'm looking for a way to sync my work outlook agenda in th port with lightning.
Maybe if it is possible i also want a sync of emails.

Can someone help me with this?
I don't have admin rights on the pc so i think it needs to be portable?

Thunderbird Portable's habit of reverting read messages to unread is a real pain.

I've so far noticed this when
1) TP is run on a new machine
see https://portableapps.com/node/3405
2) Message Search is run on a folder
3) Other times... apparently randomly, just some of the older messages in a folder (which hasn't been visited recently... perhaps since the last upgrade?) are newly marked unread.

This behavior has been present for at least 1.5 years (since I started using TBP... not exactly sure what version, but I keep uptodate... right now TBP 1.5.0.1)

... It's at 1.4.7 now, not 1.4.6... Someone needs to update the version in the next portable compilation.

Thanks.

Having just returned to using an email client (used webmail for a while) i'd be grateful if someone could suggest how often one should backup the files. Also having read a couple of posts on losing messages [usually due to inbox getting too large] - what is the SAFE limit to go to. I remember my inbox in Eudora crashing several years ago.

Sorry if this is listed in their help file but i couldn't see it.

thanks

hi guys,
just switching over from 'the other' email client.
i would really like to be able to view my address book in the bottom left corner of the main window, like 'the other' email client but i cant seem to get it to go there.
i hope there is a way to do it and that the BIG open space there can be used for something and is not just a big open space.
i know its just pedantics but it would really help me to make the switch and toss the other muppets for good!!

Is there a way to add a password for outgoing SMTP servers? I use a service for my Treo and I'd like to use this same service for my outgoing Thunderbird mail, but there is no ability to add passwords for outgoing mail - or am I insane?

Hi!

Can anybody tell me how I can hide all the header data except for "subject", "from", "date", and "to" from the panel above the message without collapsing it?

I found that TBP seems to work fine. I use AVG as a virus scanner and as it downloads mail so quickly i'm wondering if it is scanning for viruses. How can one be sure - AVG used to leave a printed message at the base of each email which i don't get anymore.

Virus scanning used to slow up downloading mail even with broadband.

thanks

Is it possible to use PTB in IMAP mode, download all content for offline use, but *not* have it syncronize? (ie - delete from PTB any emails that have been deleted from the server?)

I have users who normally use webmail, and have created multiple folders and filters via the web interface. Now they would like to archive to PTB, and then remove the original emails from the server *without* deleting them from PTB as well.
