Thunderbird Portable

When I installed P-TBird, I neglected to disable "automatic updates". A week or so ago T-Bird 1.5.0.5 was auto installed on top of P-Tbird. This may or may not be related to my problem.

About the same time, everything left in my inbox from a previous session would be gone when I started the program. I searched Mozilla archives and discovered that this problem can happen if:

1. Too much mail is left in the inbox
2. Sub-directories of the inbox are created

One can test for this problem by doing a "Compact Files". I did so and all the missing messages re-appeared but were invisible again when I re-started. "Compact Files" would always bring them back.

Hello everyone,

Is it possible to read html email?
If so, how do I configure it to do so?

Also is it possible to send html email?
If so, how?

Thanks in advance!

As in the TAG feature, it is great as you now can create new TAG.
However, I found out that it's kinda odd as you cannot EDIT either
existing or newly created.

It would be great if in next version, this would be improved.

When I invoke Thunderbird Help on the Help menu Help does not appear. Is there some way to set the path to the Help file?

Thanks.

Hi,

First thanks for your job !!

When I'm launching TP when it's already launched, there is an error that wasn't in older versions. An idea ?

And is someone using Mailbox Alert extension ? It seems not work very well when USB key moved.

Sorry for my english, I'm French.
It's a real good stuff, I enjoyed travelling with my applications.

I want to send and receive emails from my normal place of work using a domain set up with fasthosts. I am using Thunderbird Portable ver 2 alpha 1. At home I use Pipex as my ISP and I can both send and receive emails using fasthosts smtp server without any problems however at work we use star internet and I cannot send or receive emails using Thunderbird portable. From reading other posts I have tried using different port numbers and also setting up a differnt smtp server in the acount that uses the same settings as my work outlook account but still nothing.
The outlook field settings on my work pc for both incoming and outgoing mail server are set to "netstar"

Hi all,

I've been having some trouble with Thunderbird Portable loosing my IMAP emails when moving from computer to computer. As as home I'm on dialup, when I'm at uni I use thunderbird to save all my emails to the flash drive for offline usage. However, when I get home, I can view the emails in Thunderbird the first time I run it, but the second time I run it, it looses all the folders and emails, but the data files are still in the profile directory. I've tried copying the profile across to an installed version of Thunderbird, as well as another copy of Thunderbird Portable, to no avail.

OE has a box which can be checked to require a password to send mail. Have been unable to locate procedure for setting this in TP.

Hi,

I need to set password to open thunderbird.

If some one is trying to open than it should ask for password.

Where is this option available ?

last year we changed in our company from Eudora to Thunderbird.
Some clients had also the need for encryption, so Enigmail and gpg did the trick.
I'm now testing the Portable apps version of Thunderbird+Enigmail+GPG. It works fine, but I wan't to make it a littlebit more for our company needs (We install our client pc's unattended, so the less interaction the better).
Is it possible to get some guidelines to get the sources, how to edit them and create a new installer ?

Thanks in advance,
