Thunderbird Portable

Filters don't obey

Some emails goes to a folder with star and purple color tag.
I have tried to filter to another folder but don't obey me.

I observed when I create the filter from the message in the message filter window that a number appear in the name : 4,5,6......,11, etc.
Then I observed that the same filter is operated one and one more with no result because I continue receiving these emails in the same folder.

No change.

What can I do ?

I have tried to compact and repair folders with not succeed.

Best Regards

Hello.

System: Windows XP Home

What is the proper way to install Thunderbird portable so a limited user can
use Thunderbird ?

I am experiencing the following difficulties after install as Admin, and as User.

1. Under a User account, Thunderbird will not remember 3rd party Firewall settings
(Comodo Firewall) it thinks Thunderbird is new each time. I am launching with
"Run As" administrator account.

2. If I launch Thunderbird without Run As administrator, a security warning pops up
and Thunderbird is locked.

Hi,
i know from the installed TB installation the restart option i.e. after installing a new addon. In my imagine the portableapp version could be influence the behaviour (settings will not be stored or registry entries were not removed, something like that).

So my question: Is it ok to restart TP-portable with the TB internal given command? Or should i close TB-portable compeletely and start the program again afterwards.

Let me ask a question with little overlap to Firefox-PP :). Same question about that program.

Thx in advance

I seem to be having the same problem as described in https://portableapps.com/node/24926 . I bring up a New Event dialog box, fill it all in and then try to save it and nothing happens. Nothing shows up in my calendar, but no error messages are generated either.

I have to migrate my old Thunderbird environment from my dying 8GB U3 flash drive to a new Thunderbird environment on a new PortableApps platform on a new 16GB flash drive, and I'm looking for any pointers or advice before I get started.

My old Thunderbird is no longer functional, but I have the old Data and System folders and (so far) have no reason to expect them to be corrupted.

Here's how I got to this point.

I receive .ics (icalendar) attachments in my Thunderbird email. How do I go about adding them to my Lightning calendar please? I tried saving them to my Desktop, and then importing, but that didn't do anything. (see also http://goo.gl/z5urw) Or is this a feature that doesn't work with portable Thunderbird?

Anyone else having this sort of issues?

(Running Thunderbird 3.1.10 with Lightning 1.0b2 in Win7 x64.)

Sorry if this is redundant, but I think I discovered something.

Tbird on a brand new external device was extremely slow...there was atleast a lag of 2 seconds for everything. I was perplexed because this never happened on another external device.

Then I noticed the computer is NTFS format, while the external device was FAT32 format.

I formatted external device to NTFS and now its working fine.

Looking up smtp.gmail.com

I have from several weeks this problem. Sometimes I can't send messages.

My system : windows xp pro sp3
TB version 3.1.9
Antivirus Avast! free version 5.1.889
Windows Firewall

How can I test with a soft if my ISP is blocking SMTP ports ?

email account configuration :

Hello. I would like to have all personal data (settings and mail itself) encrypted, for which I consider two possibilities. First, moving default profile to partition encripted by third software (which is somehow incompatible with Thunderbird so I cannot launch it from this partition, only - hopefully - store data there). Second, encrypting all user data using Thunderbird Portable itself (or its add-ons). Unfortunately I can't find any info neither on how to change the default profile's location nor on encrypting data by means of TP itself. Could you please give me any hints?

Hello,

I have installed the portable Tbird to an USB pendrive on my home computer. On my home computer I have set up the e-mail account. There is only 1 e-mail account, there is only 1 user. E-mail has arrived, its functionality has been confirmed. I took this pendrive with me to work be able to handle my mailing from work too. At my workplace, the computers are in domain, and I need to use network login, local computer login is not the purpose.
