Thunderbird Portable

Since the last one or two updates, Global search no longer reliably finds all the the matching messages in folders that are marked for global search access. I have had to resort to using the right click search on individual folders to find what I need to find (even if only in header fields of messages) which is a lot more tedious. Please fix this, restore it to its previous working order or remove the feature.

Now I'm impressed.

One of my biggest bugbears was that portable software should be easily transportable between machines and between upgrades. When you churn through machines at the rate of one or two a year you don't really want to be rebuilding profiles and settings etc.

I used to dread the switch, with an installed "safe" Thunderbird for all my emails that were stored and sorted (carefully over about 15 years) and a "live" portable version for downloading, replying etc, prior to storage.

I have just installed thunderbird on my sandisk cruze pen stic and it has been upgraded to the latest version 3.1.9 i think.

I think what i want is different identites but i may be getting the terminology wrong.

What did you do to this app? I have been using it for years and then I updated to 3.1.9 Now it runs like it was written by (the ones whose name shall not be written nor spoken).

It constantly is re-downloading all the email messages. Click on something it clears the window completely for no reason and takes for ever to redraw. It is banging hard on my processors.

I am running XP Pro SP3 (32bit) Version 2002 on an Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q8200 @2.33 GHz with 4 gigs Ram, Nvidia video card, 4T hard storage with >2T free.

Sorry, I'm a real troglodyte, still running XP and Office 2003. Not because I haven't tried the others - I have, they're just so clunkingly overloaded 2ndly with unnecessary functionality but 1stly with redundant pizzazz.
I just can't stick them.
Similarly with FF and TB (which, mainly, just seem S-L-O-W above v2).
I've found and am happily running FFP (portable) 2.0.0.24. Can anybody point me please to TBP 2.0.0.24 which I've seen mentioned?

Is there a profile Manager in portable ? like http://support.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/kb/Using+Multiple+Profiles , I need to delete a couple identities and the manage identities will not allow me to delete any, and all of a sudden it only shows one but on the left pane and in settings there are 3....using different outgoing settings.

I try to send messages but I received these two warning windows. The second when I cancel the sending.
I have tried in two pc with the same result.

What can i do

I put also in spanish

I have seen and used GPG for portable Thunderbird for awhile now via GPG_for_Thunderbird_Portable_1.4.11.paf.exe

Upon the GnuPG site they list GPG 2.0 being available and supporting OpenPGP (enigmail) but only as source code.

So I looked into Gpg4win which is free and open source which aim of Gpg4win is to keep a Windows installation package up-to-date including the crypto software GnuPG.

I've just download Thunderbird Portable and tried to set up some configuration on ThunderbirdPortable.ini file, as usual with portableApps applications (in special disabling the Splash Screen).

But it turned out that the .ini file provided with Thunderbird Portable 3.1.7 Rev 2 on ThunderbirdPortable\Data\settings\ThunderbirdPortableSettings.ini wasn't working:

[ThunderbirdPortableSettings]
AgreedToLicense=YES

I had copied my usb thunderbird portable to the harddrive, it is in the user directory. I just copied the PortableApps folder so it sits next to the Documents/Downloads/Pictures/Videos/etc folders that are there for users.

I click on thunderbirdportable.exe and spalsh comes up, and it shows ups in task manager, and then thunderbird.exe shows up and then thunderbird.exe goes away, and then thunderbirdportable.exe goes away.
