Re: recover lost email

I use POP3 with Gmail and the mails are still in the trash. I can
recover them. Let's say this part is solved. But the weird thing is
that my older folders became empty inside TB after I deleted the msf
files. The mbox files are in the profile at their original size, but
TB shows them as empty. Theoretically if I delete the msf file, TB

An additional comment on the compacting. Thunderbird uses a temp file
during the compacting that is used to receive the kept messages. Then as
last step, the temp is renamed to that of the source mailbox. IIRC, the
word 'temp' is in the file name. If that exists, You will have ability to

That's normal, but when compacting smaller files, you wouldn't notice.
TB Compacts by deleting the "deleted" and "moved" files one at a time. A
6GB file would take at least an hour, IMO. I also suspect that the
system had trouble moving the files into and out of RAM/page file. That
would also result in TB "not responding". It was probably still running

Re: TB3 vs. TB2 master password dialog box

I would also like TB3 to ask for my master password when it first
starts, like TB2 did. It is what I want to get - my email - when I
start TB. So why go through the steps of having to ask for it.

Did you use IMAP when accessing GMail? If yes, the mail should be on the
server, and not lost.
If POP3, then yes, the mail may be lost. But I do not if it can be
recovered. I hope it can.

Hello,
I had a nasty problem with TB2.0. It stopped responding while
compacting. I had to force quit. When I started again, the folder
which was compacting became empty. A 6GB folder become empty. The
folder was so big because I was backing up my Gmail account. I tried
the tips from the Mozilla forum, but after I deleted all the msf

First, save it and do a manual scan on THAT file alone. If the virus is
in the AV database of your application it will be caught and neutralized.

If mail is sitting in the inbox that is/may be malicious then it's been
there before KAV was installed and configured.
If that is the case then shift into manual defense mode and remove the
attachment w/o saving/running it. Simple as that. If YOU get infected
then it's YOUR fault.

If one under 50k gets in then I shift into manual defense mode and
remove the attachment without saving and/or running it. ;-)

Do you still have the file? Send it to [link]

yep, seems to be that one. my current mailserver is dovecot 1.2.6.
Strange thing, at work (dovecot 1.1.4 ), it seems to work, or is it a
specific setting of dovecot ?

I once received a mail w/ attachment and I had the feeling the attachment

Thanx, that fixed the problem.
A few questions:
Will this setting persist or reset next run?
Will this interfere in any way with Enigmail?
Was it actually Enigmail that disabled this setting?
