rss open in html crash

Submitted by laurie on May 18, 2006 - 3:22pm

Hi

Thanks for these programs - love them.

I am having one prob since I changed from plain PTB to latest PTB+Enigmail. Now when I open an RSS topic with HTML enabled, it opens OK but if I interrupt the opening by prematurely closing the topic window, PTB crashes.

On this new installation, I have reduced the number of extensions previously used but have included 3 new extensions, "Mail tagger" and "xpunge" and "Toggle word wrap" as well as enigmail. I had installed lightning which is reported in mozillazine to cause some probs with rss but have uninstalled it.

This may be any number of reasons from my WinXPSP2 setup to the extensions etc but am posting here to see if anyone else has any ideas or experience of this prob.

Signature On Portable Device

Submitted by chriscolden on May 17, 2006 - 3:21pm

Hi,

I am trying to use a signature on my portable thunderbird, however when moving from computer to computer the drive letter may change and therefor the signature does not work.

As portable thunderbird does not save its own copy of the signature file, it just used the path to the file, I was woundering if any body knows of away around this. I'm guessing there is, as i'm pritty sure alot of the people who use portable thunderbird are also using a signature and I have not been able to find a post regarding the solution.

Thanks for your help.

run 2 TBs at the same time

Submitted by Dishonest John on May 16, 2006 - 4:40am

Hello all,

I checked the previous posts, but didn't find anything matching my request. If it is a repost pardon me!

I'm using standard TB app at the office to read my mail. My private mail I read with the PORTABLE TB (off course!) - and I faced the problem, that I am not able to have two instances of TB running. So every time I have to shutdown on TB to check the other. Is there a way to have 2 TBs running?

Thanks

Has anyone worked out a way to remove the automatic TB signature divider
ie.

It inserts this into every new email, and i want to be able to automaticaly remove it. I do understand that it comes with TB, but is there an extenstion to remove it or something?

If anyone's wondering, i would like to remove it as i have custom signatures for all my accounts, and have designed my own stationary.

Thanks.
