[Closed] Clicking on URLs in Thunderbird causes problems with Firefox as default browser

Submitted by ratcatcher on August 16, 2012 - 5:47am

Although this problem has come about with Firefox 14.0, I'm reporting it as a TB bug for reasons that will become clear as you read on. I've also reported it as a bug to Mozilla.

I have two machines which both run Firefox (non-portable version) as default browser. Up to and including Firefox 13, if I clicked on a URL in an email in Thunderbird (portable) with Firefox already running on the machine, a new tab would open showing that URL, as expected.

[FIXED] French package - version 14 - doesn't work

Submitted by Tartempion on August 15, 2012 - 10:51am

Hello,

I tried to install the French version of Thunderbird 14 but the installation fails and gives this error message :

L'instruction à "0x003a18cb" emploie l'adresse mémoire "0x001ab000".
La mémoire ne peut pas être "read"

The English version works perfectly.

My OS : Windows XP SP3 fully updated.

Sorry for my bad English and thanks for your help.

Thunderbird "Edit as new"

Submitted by kermik on August 1, 2012 - 2:37am

Scenario:
I have a longish email that I've already sent to a long list of recipients, it's now in my Sent folder. Now I want to resend it to another group of recipients, so I use the "Edit as new" function. However, and this is the point, I cannot find a way of deleting all the "old" recipients before inserting the "new" ones - like Ctrl+A in Windows and then delete them all in one go.

Inbox deleted (TBP on DropBox)

Submitted by HellG on July 25, 2012 - 6:00am

I have TBPortable installed in my cloud Dropbox folder. Sometimes the inbox of an account is DELETED, and i lose all my mail. This happens not so often, but it is anyhow annoying.

When this happen, the 'Inbox' File of the corrupted profile becomes 0kb and the TB inbox folder of that profile becomes empty.

The last time i had this error has been after receiving the following error while downloading new messages:

'The folder Inbox is full, and can't hold any more messages. To make room for more messages, delete any old or unwanted mail and compact the folder.'
