Thunderbird Portable

Hi,

I have problems with imported address books (impab.mab, impab-x.mab).
If I click on an importat address book, the only message which appears is "No mathces found", but the files impab.mab, impab.mab-1, etc, exist!
So what can I do that my address books are syncronized?

Thanks

Hi Everyone,
I have been following this portable apps development with great interest as it ideally suits me. I do have my own laptop but without internet access.I can use the internet from the library.
The problem is I think the library PCs do not allow portable thunderbird to access the mails via POP3 protocol. IS there a way to get my mails into my flash from the library computer. Every time when i try it says your connection timed out and nothing happens.
Cud any one help me out please?
on the other hand yahoo messenger works fine from portable GAIM
I am desperate to get an answer and would be very grateful if any one helps me out.

Hi,

Recently I downloaded Protable TB (1.5.0.2)on my USB card. I am also using Portable FF.

I setup TB to manage my Gmail and Sympatico (ISP provider) account through TB. As long as I am using portable TB from my home computer it works fine but when I try at my work I get the error message "Connection to server pop.gmail.com time out". Similarly, when I am using Sympatico account I get "Connection to server smtp8.sympatico.ca time out".

The whole purpose of using Portable TB is to use single e-mail interface to get acces to my e-mails wheverevr I am.

I may be doing some thing wrong but so far I am unable to findout what and how to fix it.

Hello,

is it possible to run thunderbird 1.5.02 and portable thunderbird 1.5.02 on a winXP at the same time.

Everytime I start portable thunderbird and thunderbird is already running (and viceversa) it says that thunderbird is already running.

Ok I just installed it and everything works well, sort of. I can receive mail but when I try to send this happens:

An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first m78sm1153226pye. Please verify that your email address is correct in your Mail preferences and try again.

So I check my Account Settings, My Outgoing Server and it says:

name - smtp.gmail.com (Default)
Description:
Server Name: smtp.gmail.com
Port: 0
User Name: .........
Secure Connection: none

Everything looks ok but why will it not s

Hello,

since I've upgraded to 1.5.0.2 yesterday, I have one problem:
Starting PortableThunderbird.exe I've got a warning message:
.... Path ..... Coudnot write to registry cause something is in use

there's a similar message if I close the program

All other thinks work fine.

Interesting is, in the path there is infront of the filename a doble backslash.

???

Greetings

Sorry for cluttering up the news thread with this before...

I am upgrading from PTB, 1.5 RC1. Being slightly obsessive, I went through my old PTB folder before deleting or moving anything, looking for any files outside the Profile folder that had been updated recently, or that weren't present in the new install. I found two files that met these criteria...in fact, they met both. They are compreg.dat and xpti.dat, residing in the thunderbird\components folder.

(I notice that files with the same names as these show up in the profile folder too...duplicates?)

Should I copy these over to the new install's app\thunderbird\components folder? Delete them? Do something else?

Does anyone have any ideas? I would like to disable the splash screen. I moved the thunderbird_localbackup.reg, the thunderbird_portable.reg and the files PortableThunderbird.ini (with an added DisableSplashScreen=true line) in to the main folder and it works! Do you think moving this files will cause any harm?

Thanks,
Bill

PS Thanks John

I just started using TB on my home computer and portable TB on my work computer. When I copy my email directory to the thumbdrive and start PTB the emails are there but are all marked as unread. What am I missing in the copy? Is there a better way to accomplish this?
