Thunderbird Portable

Hi.

First of all: Thanks to all who contribute to this whole PortableApps-Thingie. I - and I think many others - really appreciate it.

Now to my question:
Is it somehow possible to specify a relative path to a Thunderbird Start Page?
I want to use the TiddlyWiki as my StartPage, but I can't specify a relative path to the HTML-file. The whole solution would not be portable anymore if there is a path like file://E:/PortableApps/empty.html specified.

Is there a way to use the PortableApps-Documents folder for this? Or the Thunderbird-Profile or Data-Folder or anything?

Hi,

I've been using TBP 1.5.0.5 for 4 years and about 1 months ago I dicovered the following bug that I cannot solve yet - every time I move cursor to Incoming to one of my gmail accounts - TBP freezes for several minutes and then shows number of emails that exceed several times the real number of emails that are in the folder.

Seems like a bug in the database. I tried to recreate the account and move the email from the old folder to a new one, but it does not help.

Any suggestions how to solve it?

Hi,

I was wondering why my TB3 beta did not run after installation into my email directory (F:\E_M_L). After I installed it into default subdir

f:\E_M_L\ThunderbirdPortableTest\

it worked o.k. Is it done for purpose or is there bug in installer or Thunderbird portable.exe?

Hi,

Thunderbird 3 has now release candidate RC1

http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/early_releases/downloads/

When we can expect TB-portable 3 RC1?

I thought this would be a handy item, but for some reason, at TB or TBP start up, I get warnings about the browser's security component is missing. Also, certain things Thunderbrowse tries to open fail, with a message that SSL is disabled or not present. I cannot locate a way to make SSL available in TB. This message also appears when trying to check mail in GMAIL, yet the gmail acct settings have SSL checked.

any thoughts?

thank you in advance.

What's the reason there's no information on beta version on Thunderbird Portable's page? There is information on beta version on Firefox Portable's page though...
"3.6 Beta 3 - For testers, Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition 3.6 Beta 3 is also available."

I have the latest and greatest version of Thunderbird and yesterday, it stopped working. No changes, no updates, nothing. When I double click on the icon, it gives me the splash screen like normal then nothing. When I check task manager, there it is. The memory goes up, then down. If I click on it to end task, the end task button grays out. I let it 'attempt launch' for 15 minutes to get nothing. I also tried it on a different machine (hoping it was my PC and not my portable). Got the same results.

Hi guys

I have joined recently the portableapps-community and I am really keen on starting to use it with my USB stick.

The only thing that I really struggle with my emails and especially with the installation of my GMX account. Have WEB.DE account installed, that works. GMX doesn't. I think I tried everything now, from changing domains(.de/.net), ports and SSL connections yes/no.

when I try to connect to GMX sometimes it says "timed out" another time "refused" (I think this was with pop.gmx.net)

I initially reported this bug on the main Thunderbird bugzilla website, but it appears to be only happening in the PortableApps version. version 2.0.0.23 (20090812) I do not see a bugzilla website for PortableApps so guess I will report this to this forum and hope someone will act on it... Bugzilla@Mozilla – Bug 524747

What I reported was this -

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0.14)
Gecko/2009090900 SUSE/3.0.14-0.1 Firefox/3.0.14
Build Identifier: version 2.0.0.23 (20090812)

Hi,

I am having a slight problem and hope someone can help me.

I have Thunderbird on a USB stick and use multiple email addresses and signatures. Images in my signature are also stored on my USB stick. As I move between computers the drive letter of the stick naturally changes. Thunderbird cannot find my signature images simply because it is looking in the wrong drive. I have temporarily resolved this by keeping the images on my net server but would like to link them directly to the folder on my USB stick. How can I rectify this?

Thank you,
