Fellow Thunderbird users...
Lately I've been having difficulty getting your images to appear if you are on
Flicker or Photo.net when I click on the hot link in Thunderbird.
With Flick, it's very very slow and with photo.net it simply shows me a blank
screen unless I pretend to reply, then copy and paste the hot link
into the address box in firefox. (and I'm up to the latest firefox version)
can you point to a specific example (e.g. by the subject of the email)?
slow loading has nothing to do with Thunderbird; and you might find it quicker
to copy and paste a link directly from the original email, without "pretending
to reply"; the trick is to select the URL from its edge to avoid the click
activating it
the only part of this that may be controlled by Thunderbird is recognizing the
link; links that extend over more than one line may break, especially if the
sender's email doesn't use the "format=flowed" option; you can usually
recognize this when Thunderbird doesn't highlight the entire URL, and you can
also test by clicking the URL and seeing if the browser shows the entire URL as
it came in the email, or a truncated version
i have not noticed any photo.net nor flickr URLs that were broken this way
lately
Any ideas? I'm thinking it is THunderbird that is causing the problems as
recently there was a weird problem that cleared up after a few days on its own
- to wit - everytime I opened my index page it showed up
in two windows and if I tried to close one it closed both.
i don't know what you mean by index page, but this does not sound related and
is not familiar to me; i use Thunderbird on OS X, however
