I can extract them manually; nevertheless, I don't think that is a good idea.

20040626: Patch Bug #245430, more info

Hence, I do my patch again, and 20070627 aviary build is out. Today I only do SSE2 build for testing.

There is a bug in today's build, for eg if I have 2 email accounts, double -clicking on account 2 will expand account 1's folders. This happen on the trunk and avairy builds. Not sure if anyone else is having this problem.

Did u guys create a new profile? If u had created a new profile, what are the folders that i need to copy from the old profile to the new one if I want to retain all my mail?

No new profile this time.
In your Documents and Settings/%userdir%/Applicationdata/Thunderbird/Profiles/Default/xxxxxx/ the Mail directory should be enough when you are not using extensions etc...

OK, i tried with my old profile, the problem i face is when trying to expand the folders of 1 of the accounts by double-clicking it, thunderbird always exapnd or close the folders of the first account.

0.7.1 Release were up.

BTW, since 20040629, I have modified app.version of profile from 0.7+ to 0.7 in my aviary builds (0.7+) because most extensions and themes are only supported from 0.6 to 0.7 (seems 0.7.1 works fine). I think it's safe in most situation.

Here is the patch, which also adds few optimization tweaks for a 'speedy' effect.

Code: Select all

 pref("app.version", 
-"0.7+"
+"0.7"
 )

20040702 trunk builds were out.

Hi Pigfoot,

I am using your builds for the last two months now I think and they are great! Fast, Reliable and I like to have them static.

One thing is still not clear to me and a quick search on the forums did not give me the answer.
What is the difference between:

0.7+ Branch xxxxxxx builds (AVIARY_1_0_20040515, Thunderbird 1.0 branch)
0.6+ Trunk xxxxxx builds (HEAD, Mozilla 1.8a2 branch)
0.7.1 Release xxxxxxx builds (THUNDERBIRD_0_7_1_RELEASE)

Till now I used your 0.6+ Moz1.8a2 builds because I thought they were the most up to date.
But, I don't understand the 0.6+ number because 0.7.1 is already out and in my feeling we are doing 0.7+ now.

In my understanding the 0.7.1 is the last stable official release and your 0.7.1 Release xxxxxxx builds (THUNDERBIRD_0_7_1_RELEASE) is an unofficial build of that, including some patches. When that is true, which build (your 0.6+ or 0.7+) is the most up to date with the most last features build in (the closest to a new 1.0 build)???

Thanks,
Jan.

That is true. Mostly, I recommend you to use release builds because they are bug-free in general.

If you wanna try nightly builds which have new feature but buggy, you can download aviary builds, as known as 0.7+ branch.

The trunk builds often will be a part of mozilla suite, and these builds I made are offered to test for developers. In short, if you have no idea what it is, it's good to choice aviary builds.

BTW, 20040706 aviary builds were out. I try gcc to build aviary builds yesterday, but I found I can not use mmoy's sse/sse2 patch. Hence I returned to use MSVC 7.1 today.
