My Internet connection with Firefox web browser is working just fine, but my Thunderbird email client keeps timing out. Ive been told it isn't correctly configured.To assist, the email provider is Hotmail and the client is presently set up for a POP server.
I am using RHEL 5.3 , i want to configure my comapny email account in thunderbird 3.0.3 . i am unable to connect my server. my server is pop.bizmail.yahoo.com. what should i do , shall i need to do any more settings apart from thundermail...
I want to subscribe to newsgroups pertaining to Linux in Thunderbird. To configure the subscription Thunderbird asks me to enter the server name for the newsgroups, but I don't know any server name serving newsgroups for Linux.
Thanks to Lucid not working properly on i845, i855 and other 8xx chips, had to re-install Karmic on my mum's computer.I saved all the data from her old install and I ve managed to get all her old emails from thunderbird, but I cant import her address book.In Thunderbird/tools/import/addressbooks it only allows importing of LDIF, .tab, .csv and .txt files, but I cant find any of these files in any of the Thunderbird, .Thunderbird, Mozilla-Thunderbird or Mozilla folders in Home folder or anywhere, all I can find is "abook.mab" which IS supposed to be her address book, but when I try and import it the entries are blank and/or indecipherable (prob cos not a compatible file type).
Its one of those "simple" things to do, thats taken hours and hours of time, but that I cant actually find out how to do.
I had a portable apps version of Thunderbird (windows) that runs off a thumb drive and wanted to take the settings and transfer them to my Thunderbird that's on my Linux computer.
This is what I did:
First, I installed thunderbird on my Ubuntu 10.04 Linux box and opened it, and closed it (so that it would create the /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder in the user account).
Then, I renamed the linux /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder to .thunderbird_ORIGINAL
Then, I created a new /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder
Then, I took the windows e:ThunderbirdPortableDataprofile folder and copied it to the /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder.
Then, I looked into the /home/<username>/.thunderbird_ORIGINAL folder and wrote down the name of the folder with the ".default" extension.
Then, I renamed the profile folder (that came from the windows e:ThunderbirdPortableData folder) "<name-I-wrote-down>.default".
And then, I copied the profiles.ini folder from /home/<username>/.thunderbird_ORIGINAL to the /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder.
I opened up Thunderbird in Linux and everything seems fine! (I'll definitely be keeping a backup just in case)
My question is: is this fine and dandy, or a recipe for disaster?
I run version 10.04 GNOME. My problem is (after substantial searching) that I need to have both users ('juliusz' and 'sarah') running Thunderbird but with the same profile (settings, email, accounts etc. preferably of 'juliusz'). The only results on the internet are share Thunderbird between Windows and Ubuntu.
I have two users juliusz and sarah. I need either of them to have the same profile, always in synch whenever they logon to own account. When I tried to edit sarah's /home/sarah/.mozilla-thunderbird/profile.ini by inserting: Path=/home/juliusz/.mozilla-thunderbird/xxxxxxx.default after i run Thunderbird for 'sarah' I get message: "Thunderbird is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Thunderbird process, or restart your system." I checked with "ps aux" there is no Thunderbird running in sarah's session. There is no Thunderbird running in juliusz's session when I reloged to juliusz.
I have installed 11.4, and it seems (seemed) to work OK so far. I installed Thunderbird via the opensuse "1 click install". the installation ran smoothly, but now a click on the Thunderbird icon does not activate any mail client; the only success is that Thunderbird icon jumps joyfully and then disappears.
I am trying to follow this tutorial below so that I can get Text to the right of icons on the GNOME desktop. [URL] Everything so far has worked fine, except when I get to step 3 where I compile Nautilus. When I try to run the command ./configure --prefix=/usr It tells me bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
I found a tool made for Ubuntu called Xautoclick. I downloaded it and it is called "xautoclick-0.30.tar.gz" The installation notes say "tallatBe sure you have the proper development packages for your distribution installed (i.e. something like xserver-xorg-dev, gtk2-dev, et cetera). After that, run:
./configure make sudo make install" I have no clue what to do... I typed in "./configure" in the terminal and it says "bash: ./configure: No such file or directory?
kpilot worked just fine with my Palm Tungsten T3 on OpenSuse 10.3. I recently upgraded to 11.2 and have had numerous problems. It took me a while to get the hardware talking (documented in another thread), but now the sync is proving to be problematic. A hotsync happens - and I can also sync fully with jpilot, but the sync isn't going anywhere. I'm hoping to sync with kontact, but it's impossible to tell as kpilot hangs whenever I try to configure the conduits through the "Configure kpilot" menu item. When syncing, the log complains of missing conduits:

Work has decided to allow a few of us to get RSS feeds, and their reader of preference at this stage is Thunderbird (on XP).Couple of quesions:
1) Does anyone here use Thunderbird for RSS? Have your experiences with it been good or bad?
2) Seem to recall from a brief stint (ie less than a week) using it few years ago it used to pop up a window notifying you of new items received in the feeds, but I'm unable to make it do that now,Am I missing something really obvious, or am I mistaken in thinking it used to notify me of new feed items?
I just recently configured Thunderbird to work in the Messaging Applet via this tutorial.[URL]It works great and is very convenient.However the entry in the applet disappears after I close Thunderbird's window. I was wondering if there was a way to run Thunderbird without the gui so all I would have is the indicator in the messaging applet.When I get an email then it would notify me and I would click on it and it would reopen the Thunderbird window
I just download Thunderbird 3 and a file named as thunderbird-3.0.tar.bz2 got downloaded. But I do not know how to install this file. I am very new to Ubuntu and recently migrated from Windows Vista to Ubuntu 9.10.
I know how to install the .deb files but how do I install the source code files.
I already got some answers from various websites... but they are too confusing, since I am very new to Linux and do not know much about it. But I am trying to learn. So please suggest me a simple solution.
After months of consideration I finally decided to replace TheBat with Thunderbird 3.1 but I did not get far as I cannot even add an account.I have some gmail accounts and whey I try to add them, Thunderbird greenlights Incoming and outgoing servers, but then it circles endlessly at username. It happens with all my gmail accounts (IMAP is enabled).
I have the latest Ubuntu ver 10.04 waiting for April 29th. I have a problem with Thunderbird 3.0.4 it doesn't get me into Firefox automatically in there is a hyper-link in the message.
After upgrading to 10.04, Thunderbird crashes every 20 minutes or so. No mozilla crash reporter pops up... it just dies. No idea why. I filed a bug, but nothing seems to be happening with it. I find it hard to believe I'm the only one experience this level of instability.
I killed my motherboard and have to put my hard drive into another machine as a slave to get the emails and other data. Where do i find my emails from thunderbird and can i open the emails from the install of Ubuntu in the other machine? Can i mount and read a drive that was a master and now is a slave?
I'm running Thunderbird/3.0.10 on Lucid 10.04, there does not seem to be a Lightning add on available for this version. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to how to get this up and running?Otherwise I like 10.04 and intend to stick with it till the next LTS release as I need a stable desktop environment.
I haven't installed Email yet on ubuntu 10.04.1. When I do so I was planning to install Thunderbird. According to the prerequisite on - [URL] Thunderbird 3.0 should be installed and operational before upgrading to version 3.1.7. However on checking in available version to download via Software Center, the version there appears to be 3.1.7 already. Does that mean version 3.0 isn't a prerequisite after all? If it is, where can it be obtained or is just a simple download from Software Center to install 3.1.7?
Upon opening Thunderbird today, no single folder (inbox, trash, local folders, etc.) is showing.The mail accounts are all still correctly registered, the search function finds the messages. Yet, the folders (in oder to browse the mail accounts, check for new messages, etc.) are not showing up.The folder pane is showing, but empty. I can toggle between 'Unified Folders', 'All Folders', 'Unread Folders', etc., but they are all empty.

Ive been running 11.04 and �unity� Desktop a few months now, and now I�d like to choose a good email client. I want something that will handle my Hotmail, Yahoo and GMail accounts as well as my old POP accounts. I want something that�s easy to hookup to all those old accounts and allow me to move emails between mailboxes (I have a few mailboxes and some of them have rules about auto-directing emails into them). I used T�Bird a few years/releases ago and it was fine for POP/SMTP, but I never got the Webmail hookups to work. Which is best? Thunderbird or Evolution?
trying to install Thunderbird 3.0.1. I downloaded the tar.bz2 file from the Thunderbird site, tar -jxvf thunderbird.3.0.1.tar.gz2 to get the thunderbird folder. ./thunderbird gives the following error message.
