Re: [ubuntu-uk] Problem with one mailbox in Thunderbird

2015-09-14 Thread David King
I wonder if the add-ons are interfering with each other in some way that 
blocks one inbox.


Did you try it with no add-ons and with combinations of 2 of the 3 add-ons?

I'm running Thunderbird 38.2.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. There was an 
update to tbird last week, which seemed OK.


I have four email accounts that I download with tbird - my ISP 
allocated mail, my yahoo mail, and two email addresses on a server 
from a place I volunteer, and one of these has a major problem - 
every time I change to another mailbox, or close tbird, everything in 
the Inbox disappears. None of the other three mailboxes have this 
problem, all other folders (such as deleted and junk) are OK. I've 
made no changes to settings or properties - for retention all are set 
to follow account settings, which are set to leave on server (so I 
can at least look at the hideous webmail interface to see them), but 
our server will only keep them for a month.
I've been playing with this - if I load in safe mode with no add-ons, 
all emails reappear. I've tried disabling each add-on in turn (there 
are only three) but the problem remains. If I load in safe mode but 
tell tbird to always load without add-ons, the problem remains.


So at the moment I'm running tbird, and then choosing Help > Restart 
without add-ons.

Any advice?
TIA
Dianne

I suggest 5.30-ish as the RAT itself leaves at 7.20pm and we have to get
from Farnham to Alton (buy normal train tickets on the train, if the
guard actually turns up)


Sounds good.

I'll be there (probably a bit earlier than 5:30)

Re: [ubuntu-uk] High Capacity SD cards

I bought a cheep 128GB thumb drive, but had to run badblocks on it when I
first got it to flush out all the bad sectors before it could be relied on.
I would be hesitant to rely on data written to these devices being
preserved for a significant length of time. If you are using for monthly
backups and rewriting the data then you should be fine, but trying to read
data written a couple of years ago may cause problems.

I believe the quote was - we're not used to this many orders! It did 
take a long time to get the food and there was only a small group of us!
I'll probably not be eating myself anyway - but will be enjoying a 
pint or two...


I'm not a big fan of the Mulberry for beer (it's a youngster's pub so 
is pretty much a Lager bar in reality) but it's got a decent 
reputation for burgers...



If it's close and you're with your fellow Ubuntu folks you'll be fine ;)

Then there is the William Cobbett in town - it's only a gentle 10 
minute walk to the station.


I'm easy whatever.
