Thunderbird Portable

It should be https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/thunderbird_portable/test not https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/thunderbird_portable

Hi. I have 3 email accounts running off Thunderbird portable and one of them just gives me jibberish andrandom characters in place of the actual body of the message. I checked the mail on the server and the messages are fine there, but on Thunderbird they're not. Can anyone help?

Greetings everyone

Today i started my Computer and clicked the Thunderbird-Icon, like im doing every Morning

TB (Version 5.0, German) starts like Everyday, BUT, since today, it start TWICE (two instances of it running at the same time).

I tried this now several times, including a reboot of my computer, but it didnt fix it. Anyone but me also knows this problem?

Oh, btw:
When i close one of thouse TB Instances, the other will also close itselfs.

Here the MD5CS, for comparehansion:
ede513eb4e0a48524d0627c3ef7e1ca5 *ThunderbirdPortable.exe

My understanding of PortableApps, is to have access to your personal tools and files without leaving traces of them on the machine being used (confidential reasons).

I would like to point out that I have noticed traces of Thunderbird on WinXP under %username% settings.

I haven't completed a full analysis to determine if other Apps leave traces and if this is due to settings in the Apps. Nor have I yet to provide possible locations of these traces and to what extent they can be manipulated.

Some tuning may be required on the Application or PortableApps.

Since yesterday I get the following error when starting ThunderbirdPortable:
http://test2.slibbe.org/XUL%20Runner.png

This is on various Windows 7 laptops, and current Pre-Release 2.1 PortableApps Platform, either running form hard drive or USB microSD card.

Anybody else having the same problem and any ideas how to fix this?

Greets,

After upgrading to TBP 5, I can no longer access my existing profile. I've checked prefs.js and it seems just like it was before, with all my mail account and newsgroup information. Just in case, I copied over a backup of prefs.js and it made no difference whatsoever. I also restored from a backup I'd taken with MozBackup, again no change. I've also done a complete disk check and it has shown no problems.

After upgrading to TB portable 5, none of my profile info is available. It is treating me as a new user altogether...

Does keeping pen drive in Computer 24/7 cause problems. have lost 2 recently one had thunderbird portable on it. Have got all details back on new pen drive. But my question is should I safely remove every evening and reinsert pen drive at start of new day?
Computer is Acer aspire 5742Z running win 7.
Thanks

My flash drive got corrupted and I had the files recovered by a company that specializes in that. The recovered files are all mixed due to indexing problems I guess. What folders and files do I bring over in to a fresh copy of Thunderbird Port? I need everything. Can someone give me a step by step?

I was recently invited by Thunderbird to upgrade to v5.0 (from within the app). I selected this option, believing that with portable apps this is generally okay, i.e. it will not mess up the portable nature of the app.

I am now not able to access the mailboxes on certain servers (GoDaddy Europe). It asks for the password and seems to accept it, but no emails are downloaded. This is using an IMAP server and none of the settings seems to have changed when upgrading to v5.0

I still have access to a mailbox on another server and that is working fine.
