I recently installed version 3.1 of Thunderbird, but kept version 2.0.0.24 just in case. I am writing this is version 2... I have tried v3 for a while now. Any problems? Well, yes, there are two so far. 1. I have threads switched on for two of the folders. In v2 they are always there. In v3 I have to switch them off and then on each time I go to one of the relevant folders. Otherwise they do not appear. 2. I have some message filters set up. In v2 they work fine. In v3 they don't work. I have checked them and they are enabled. Even when I run them manually they don't work. I went back to v2 and opened up the account and the filters ran for me. I also think that v3 is trying to be too clever. I have three accounts set up but I use the same SMTP server on all of them. V3 keeps trying to use the SMTP server for the particular account when I want to send an email. I have marked the server I use as default. Also when I want to set up a new account I would like to go straight to manual setup. Instead I have to let TB try to find the relevant details first, which it gets partly wrong, and only then can I choose to go to the manual setup. So, back to version 2 permanently, Neil -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
