Re: [Linux-users] Thunderbird woes cont.

2017-02-27 Thread Roger Searle
When you right click the account name in the left-most pane > Settings > 
Server Settings, is the Local Directory set to the folder your profile 
resides in?  I have several accounts in my current install, they end 
with the following path (one per account)


\Profiles\w92z88kc.default\ImapMail\imap.googlemail.com
\Profiles\w92z88kc.default\ImapMail\imap.googlemail-1.com

If not there is a browse button to point it to the correct place.

Another option: from the command line, run "thunderbird 
--profilemanager" (note 2 hyphens there) where you can create (or delete 
or rename) a profile, from where you can choose the folder containing 
your existing folder.


Good luck - sorry I can't help in person.

Cheers,
Roger

[Linux-users] GNU/Linux support Weds 7.30pm

2017-02-27 Thread Rik Tindall

Hi all, monthly notice, March 1.

Tomorrow night is the GNU/Linux Users' workshop: 7.30pm-9.30pm first 
Wednesday of each month February to December in the South Learning 
Centre, through rear door of South Christchurch Library at 66 Colombo 
Street, Cashmere: http://www.library.christchurch.org.nz/South/


LiveDVD/thumbdrive installs of freenix* distributions are used to 
demonstrate alternative desktop environments in the SLC computer lab of 
fast i5 Skylakes. Ubuntu-MATE is the Debian GNU/Linux variant we usually 
display, Long Term Support releases like 16.04. See http://debian.org 
background and http://ubuntu-mate.org/download/


BYO distributions and technologies welcome; overhead projector - let us 
know if have a presentation to offer.


All welcome. See you soon.
