Thunderbird Portable

Hi,

I have following problem. The computer where I work has a local instance of Thunderbird already running. So it does work to start the portable version unless I close the local version. Since the local version contains my job mail, the portable my private one, this is not very comfortable. Is there a way to run both parallel?

Samba

have been using Thunderbird for U3 on my U3 USB stick for sometime and have multiple email accounts configured. Now, suddenly for some reason - and I am not sure why, may have been a virus or something -- all teh emails and email accounts are gone.

When I open Thunderbird, it shows up as if I had just installed it for the first time and is asking me to set up email accounts etc.

I did not manually back up any of those emails. Are they somewhere in a folder? does Thunderbird have them somewhere?

I have just set up TB portable and have found that not all emails are downloading... not sure why. I have checked all settings and they seem correct. What alerted me first this was when I was expecting some emails with attachments and they were not coming through, but when I close down TB Portable and open regular TB they download from the server (I have both TB versions set to leave emails on the server)

any assistance on this matter would be appreciated.

I spent ages writing my 2007 paper diary into Sunbird. Then I discovered Lightning as a Thunderbird extension. I would like to suck all the painful data straight out of SB into TB+L. However depending on the application neither of the suggestive "Import" or "Export" menu items seems (to me) to work in the way that one might have expected or hoped. Am I doomed to stick with separate SB and TB, or duplicate the awful labour of building the calendar in TB+L or can anybody instruct me how to achieve the desired endpoint quickly and efficiently? Thank you.

Hello !!!
My name is X-Man and i have a very big problem with the Mozilla Portable Thunderbird, if anyone is interested in helping me please read on and i will be verry GRATEFUL to him if he wants to help me, this is my bloody problem :

I've got Pegasus Mail on my mail computer, but am wondering how I can export in the mail that's under Pegasus. I know there's an export for emails, but doesn't want to acknowledge Pegasus. Any suggestions. Might want to do up an extension or that for those of us that uses Pegasus on our main computers. Thanks!

Whenever I send an email message to print from Thunderbird Portable it always prints FULL headers -- nearly a whole page of stuff I am not interested in.

This is a portable issue! I have been using Thunderbird non-portable for a couple of years and I have never run into this problem.

1. The email message is displayed WITHOUT headers.

2. I ask it to print the message. The screen display remains WITHOUT headers, but the message prints WITH all headers.

3. The message is also displayed on Print Preview WITH all headers.

I download all my email into my portable thunderbird. I want to read the messages in html with graphics. All I get is links and words no pics. is there a way to configure so i can see my emails like i do on the web?

Hi,
I've been using Truecrypt for some years,and inside the encrypted drive (which is just a 2gb file stored on an external USB drive) I manage as "portable apps" Eudora Pro, Palm Desktop and Oxygen Nokia Phone Manager.
I have all my emails sent/received since 1996, for all my 14 accounts.

Now I'd like to move to Thunderbird, since Eudora is not reliable and I have problems in character encoding.
I could wait the next release of Eudora which should be based on Thunderbird, but I'd like to start moving to new mailbox format now.

I can't find the answer(I swear I use search) on the two question:

1.How to set up TBP to show full name of subscrbied groups
2.How to set up to show subscribed groups on opening(without clik + )

Many thanks in advance

P.S.
Assume this in local TB

// Don't abbreviate newsgroup names:
user_pref("mail.server.default.abbreviate", true);

// Remember news server states in folder pane:
user_pref("news.persist_server_open_state_in_folderpane", true);

But where to put in TBP?
