Thunderbird 3 will only work with Lightning 1.0. So if you have an
earlier version of the Lightning extension, it will get disabled each
time your start Thunderbird. I am not sure what version of Thunderbird
ships with build 130.
I have not had a problem with my ~/.thunderbird files when migrating
back and forwards from Thunderbird 2 to Thunderbird 3
Check your Thunderbird and Lightning versions.

Lightening/calendar was disabled there too. I reenabled and got the error
message again. I can still open the calendar manually after closing error
message but it is annoying...If I could fix this issue now present on stable
111b build and 130, I would be a happy camper for now...Thanks!
Anyone got a clue?
I'm not 100% sure, but I think the problem is that the beadm boot environment takes a ZFS
snapshot of everything except the user's home directories in /export/home/username/ and
your username's preferences for Firefox and Thunderbird are contained as hidden
"." files in those user home directories.
Go look for yourself by opening up a terminal and typing in these two commands:
cd ~
ls -lFha
and all the hidden files and directories that start with a "." are your user's
configuration files for Thunderbird and GNOME and whatnot. The option as to whether lightning is
disabled or not is an option contained in one of those files and that option does not change when
you boot into different boot environments because the different beadm boot environments all use the
same "/export/home/username" directories (whereas they use different ZFS snapshots for
everything else). If you wanted to you could probably make a backup copy of the configuration file
that's annoying you and switch to the backup file when you boot up into a different beadm boot
environment. You can also back up these configuration files off site and copy them on to another
computer running OpenSolaris or BSD or Linux to restore some of your old Thunderbird configuration
settings. Get it?
