Message Filters
I can create message filters, but they do not remain after exiting the app. Is this known behavior?

I can create message filters, but they do not remain after exiting the app. Is this known behavior?
Hi people this is my first post here. I've been using portable apps for a couple of months now. I use them mainly on my PC because it's superior to installing software. I keep them on a seperate partition so when my C: partition gets screwed or reverted to a backup I don't lose and settings, favourites or addresses etc and I need only to recreate shortcuts. Portable apps rocks! I use the FF, TB, OP, NVU, Gaim and abiword!
I got a problem with TB though. Before using the portable app I used the normal intalling version and this behaved correctly. Under the Server Settings for my account I check the box "Leave messages on server for at most 90 days", this ensure that I always have a backup of my email remotely. But on this version of TB it does leave the messages on the server but everytime it checks for new email it downloads them again. Filling my inbox up with repeats. As I said the install version (0.9 i think) behanved correctly. Is this a quirk with the portable version or am I missing something?
Thanks for the absolutely fabulous apps: Portable Firefox and Portable Thunderbird. After a prolonged search, I can't find the solution to this problem. I have a 256 MB flash drive that is too small to download the very large volume of stored mail on my SMTP server. I would like to selectively download recent mail, say for the last 10 days. I can't figure how to do this in Thunderbird and can't find an extension that will allow me to designate that this is all I want. Thanks again for your help.
From the experience of Portable Firefox OSX, I've packaged a Portable Thunderbird Mac OS X version using this script so you can launch it with a double click from any device:
I want to copy my E-Mails and Profiles/Settings from my installed Thunderbird version to the Portabel Version.
What Files i have to copy and where can i find them?
immediately after creating a new contact, it is lost in the long list, & i have to search it painfully among thousands of entries. the scroll bar shold remain at the last entry.
more search options are required. more export options are required. more customizable address fields are required.
look up contact in the context menu when clicking on email addresses required.
atleast there will be some addons extensions for some additional functionality in near future, i hope.
i have finally migrated from outlook completely (lock stock & barrel) to portable TB, & also to other portable apps like OOO & abiword & been using all these for about a month.
So, it's been out for what... three minutes already? So, where's our portable version? And with that said, I'll now duck behind this handy portable barrier.

most off the time the smtp would be stmp.carrier.country
I hope this hint works for you as it does for me.

I'm kinda having a problem with ptb: allthough I've set it up to act as the default mail client for the system (XP Prof), it does not act like that, i.e.: when trying to send files from desktop by rightclicking&sendto: mail recipient NOTHING happens. When trying to send from within openoffice writer, I receive an error message saying that there is no mail client defined.
What can I do?
Thanks
is it possible to modify a extention that was made for a earlier version so it could work on the portable thunderbird 1.5 Thanks
