Thunderbird Portable

Attachment Icon

Submitted by justgary on May 22, 2006 - 11:22am

I've got an email address in my inbox that has an attachment but the attachment icon for that message only displays when that message is selected or if any other message with an attachment is selected. When a message having no attachment is selected, the icon for the original meassage disappears. I'm not losing attachments but its confusing.

Import of email

Submitted by naos on May 22, 2006 - 9:11am

So far I've used PTB separate from the main TB installed on the home computer; now I'm wondering (due to necessity if possible) to have the same mail received on the main TB imported/syncronizzed in the PTB instead of a saved file, which could account ,in my case, to several files.
I have tryed also opening the file containing the mail but haven't found which kind of application is opening it.
Is someone able to do that?? Tks

Is seperat eupgrade of enigmail/PGP OK?

Submitted by elsiemay on May 21, 2006 - 7:13am

This is a simple question, deliberately in two parts here to keep multiple posts minimized, even though the second question applies to all of the Haller-packed apps.

1. Specifically: is it safe to upgrade enigmail, for example from .93 to the current .94, and update the relevant files within the gpg directory? Or is it best to wait for the current PT with Enigmail, and the releavnt parts of the Portable Suite, to be updated with the new Enigmail by John? I ask because the Engimail site says that .94 includes many big fixes for PT 1.5.

2. The same question applied to all the other apps in the suite. If there are no code changes to the actual app in the Apps\Portable*AppName*\*appname* directory, is it safe to update these seperately?
