Thunderbird Portable

I am somehow not able to find to day the setting where the tabs on TB 11.0 are shown bellow the icons etc.

In Firefox it can be switched, in TB ?

Can someone guide me to the setting?

OS: Win7 SP1 x64
TB: 11.0 portable
Addons: none
Theme: default

Issue: The main Thunderbird window does not display the "glass" transparency effect that has been present since TBird 5.0. Other windows (new message, address book, etc) do show the full aero/glass effect.

This is on a brand-new "install" of TB 11.0 portable, with a completely fresh profile (no accounts and no extensions).

Any ideas on how to re-enable the glass effect in the main window? I'm one of the rare few that actually like that.

Thanks

Thunderbird Portable 10.0.2 –
This was working fine.
Now I can download mail from the Orcon POP3 server on my Win7 system but it fails on my both of my XP systems
(Sending of password did not succeed. Mail server mail.orcon.net.nz responded: re-authentication failure).
- I can download from the Clearnet POP3 server ok.
- SMTP to Orcon works ok.
- No recent Windows updates.
- No update to Thunderbird.
- No settings changed in T’Bird (in any case, it still works on the Win7 system)
- Disabled all T'Bird addons

Can I disable message loading on start-up?

I have a replacement thumb drive and installed TB on it. I want to bring over all settings, mail, address book to the new drive. I was able to copy and paste the profile folder but at the new home page, TB doesn't see the profile and/or wants to start me thru a setup wizard. What am I not doing correctly?

I just upgraded from v2.0.0.22 to v10.0.2 (I know, a big jump

After the upgrade I added a gmail account to Thunderbird.

My problem: the gmail account isn't listed in the account list so I have no control over it.

And, while I'm here, how do I delete an account? I have several old, no longer used accounts I'd like to get rid of.

TIA for any help.

Do flash embeds work for you? When I go to an RSS subscription with a flash file in it, I just get a black box. I know the plugin is installed.

Hi, this is puzzling me and I'm really hoping someone out there can help; I use Portable Thunderbird 8.0 - I may need to upgrade, I know, but I'm worried that my zindus plugin, and some others won't work. I'm running it on a windows 7 laptop, from the main hard drive (planning to move it onto a portable, but haven't got that far yet...).

The reason I ask is that Thunderbird is very groggy when I load it from a thumb drive -- so much so that it's almost unusable.

So, I figured, I have Thunderbird on my laptop and desktop, and I just want the profiles to stay in sync, so why don't I just have a profile on the thumb drive? Well, even when I use thunderbird on my computer, pointing to the portable profile, it's just as slow.

Do you already have version 10.0.2 Mozilla Thunderbird Potable?
