Hi!
I have a problem with my TB. I have installed it on my Pen Drive (Kingston Data Traveler II - 512MB). The problem is, that many of e-mails sent using TB have been never received by recipients - there is no rules. I am sure that everything is OK, all POP3, SMTP data are correct... I have imported settings from my Outlook Express.
- all e-mails sent from Outlook Express have been delivered without any problems - very fast
- e-mails sent from TB are shown as "sent", without any errors,
- recipients do not have my e-mail in SPAM folder,

To day I had one of those events where the PTB takes alsmost for ever to start and fills the ram with ????.
I was not using any external apps for attachments etc.
I had custom setting in the attachment handling for jpg, doc, and pdf , all pointing to portable software on the same stick.

Incidently, I had just also the folder on the windows explorer where the PTB is located open. I could from here see that the mimetypes was just incrementing in size, starting from its few kb to over 500mb. During that time nothing happend otherwise, the PC was quite 'frozen'.

Because I have to connect with my blackberry as well as do a few other things at work, i have to use both Outlook and Thunderbird portable (which is way faster). Whenever I send an email from outlook I see it as new received mail in my inbox (for the same account) instead of the sent box in Thunderbird. How do I fix this?

Is there anyway to set up Thunderbird where you can't read existing mail that is in the program with out the password being entered.

Basically, when I click on TBP, I had it set to where I had to enter my password every time I opened Thunderbird. Earlier I was wondering what happens if you click on cancel and you don't enter the password, could someone still read the existing email that has already been downloaded. I found out that it doesn't block you from see current email, it just won't download new email.

Thanks!

hi.

when im opening a message with attachment it hangs. appears a message "loading message" and it hangs. now its slower than before and now neither TB start, its too slow.

help me please. what can i do?

OK, this post may look a bit strange as I figured out a solution as I was typing up my problem. I will however leave the question below (and it's solution) for those who also may want to do what I did.... Read on....

I am able to run multiple instances of TB on my main windows machine by setting the environment variable MOZ_NO_REMOTE to 1. As long as I use separate profiles, everything is OK. Here is the problem.

I've recently moved from (standard) TB to portable TB v2.0.0.18. It's all working fine apart from an issue with ProfileSwitcher (0.3.5). I've read the article:

Hi,
I don't manage to read my new emails since two hours and now decided to search for support here.

I use TBP 2.0.0.18 with wine.

When I tried to open a local folder (IMAP) containing new emails, the programme hanged. The problem did not occur with unread emails, only with folders with emails I just downloaded (and with one folder whose only special characteristic is that it is a sub-folder of another folder). After minimizing and resizing I was only able to see the title bar of TBP and so I terminated the programme.

Things I tried already:

I love Thunderbird - in fact I have just switched over to it from Outlook (mainly because I can run it from memory stick and use it on any computer I happen to be using at the time).

My only niggle at the moment is that I don't seem to be able to persuade it to select the inbox as the default folder on startup which is frustrating to say the least. At the moment every time I run the program I end up looking at the junk folder. ](*,)

Is there any way to achieve this?
