Thunderbird Portable 643h13

Can anyone tell me that? Can I update through the automatic update in thunderbird?

thanks,

On my desktop PC I use Thunderbird (with GPG/Enigmail), when I'm out I'm using Thunderbird Portable (with GPG/Enigmail) on my USB hard drive.

To have all my mails on both installations, I tried to sync the profile folder of TP

C:\Documents and Settings\dhoughal\Application Data\Thunderbird\profiles\xyz

to TBP's profile folder

F:\Program Files\ThunderbirdPortable\Data\profile

That worked fine. But when syncing TBP's profile folder back to TB's profile folder and starting my local installation of TB, I get problems with Enigmail, as TBP has reset the GPG executable path in prefs.js to

First, thank you for making thunderbird portable! There is a slight problem, though, when using IMAP servers. Thunderbird seems to write the absolute path to the mail folders in panacea.dat, in the profile directory. When the drive letter changes, Thunderbird gets confused, and after starting it again, all previous imap mail messages disappear. To fix this problem, the drive letter for the folders specified in panacea.dat must be updated before thunderbird is started. I've written a little batch file to do this, I wanted to share it, so I'm attaching it. However, I'm sure there would be a better way to do this.

I have set up a USB key with portable versions of Firefox and Thunderbird so I can use both at home and work and various other laptops I use. When I came to use Firefox at work, I had to put in Manual Proxy Configuration....a HTTP Proxy number and a port number that I found in IE on my work PC. I presume this is something to do with the work firewall.

Anyway, I am now trying to get Thunderbird to work on my work PC but it doesnt seem things to fill in as Firefox. Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance,

I am using Thuderbird Portable on a USB drive that I take with me on the road and use from multiple computers. The drive letter changes depending on what is in use already on the machine. Does this present any problems with TBP or should it be the same drive letter each time. If so, what do I need to modify to change the drive letter to something else as my original install was F and I would like to make it a less common one like P or something.

Thanks

Hi,

I'm starting to use portable thunderbird and I have this question. The columns order can't be saved after I reorder them. They start always in natural order. I add new columns like size and and when I restart TBP they are not there. The same is with message pane. I click F8 to hide it and when I restart TBP, there it is the message pane.

Why can´t TBP save the layout I made?

Thanks!

Hello,

i've "installed" TBP 1.5.5 then updated it to 1.5.7. Then I modified the configuration INI and allowed multiple instances. I can start it without any problems. When I close TBP i get following error. Does somebody have a solution. I think it has something to do with the multiple instance setting.

Thanks in advance

i request an automated reply for thunderbird , rather than i have to filter the folder to thanks a lot

TBP ver 1.5.0.5 portableapps.sitesunblocked.org

Notified of Auto-Update.

TB incremental update failed. Then TB tried to do the full update. After 1hr. I had to shut down flash drive so I clicked hide update and then shut down TB and drive.

Restarted TB next time and ver is still 1.5.0.5 and the "Check for Updates" shows that the current update is paused and does not give any cancel or restart update options.

I know John will probably come out with a new version, but I was wondering if anyone else had the same problem or not.

I have portable Thunderbird on a USB stick; Just now after typing in my I see at the bottom of the screeen "downlaoding 1 of 1 message" then there's nothing in my inbox; this happened on at least three occasions in the past week. The other times I had one less message in my inbox than the messgae indicated.

Am I losing messages or is Thunderbird incorrectly saying I have messages that aren't there?

Thanks in advance for any help!
