Thunderbird Portable

Opening links in Portable Firefox

Submitted by colmed01 on July 11, 2006 - 4:49am

Is there a method of forcing Portable Thunderbird to open HTML links in Portable Firefox instead of the default Windows browser.

I'm running both Thunderbird & Firefox on a USB drive, on a PC at work, and don't want to use the installed IE as my browser. DUe to user restrictions I can't (and don't want to) chanmge the default browser.

Syncronisation Thunderbird (portable) PDA (Windows Mobile)

Submitted by Gerd on July 6, 2006 - 11:43am

First I want to describe my circumstances. I use portable Thunderbird on some Windows Computers and even at home on my Ubuntu Linux mashine (using only the profils, works fine).
Everything workes perfect (means: thanks for all that nice portable programs!).
Now I have a T-Mobile MDA (PDA with Windows Mobile). I want to synchronise it with the data in my portable thunderbird profile.
I have tried using activesync with birdiesync. The problem is, that you cant define the right paths for the syncronisation with the portable app.
Maybe someone knows a different way to syncronise a PDA with portable thunderbird, or had success on trying to pair the devices with birdiesync. (with the normal Thunderbird everthing works fine!)

Thunderbird hangs

I run portable Thunderbird from an iPodShuffle on OSX. The application hangs everytime the computer wakes up from sleep, regardless on which Mac I try it on. Is there a way around this?

thanks in advance

Use as Desktop App

This topic must have been covered before...
Is there any reason why Portable Thunderbird should not be used as the desktop mail app? I support a social service agency where people move around a lot, and it would be a lot easier to just move one folder to have their mail follow them.
Is there something that regular T-bird does that Portable T-bird cannot do?
