hi,
I am Ramkumar from India. I tried to print the eml file using the thunderbird.exe from command prompt. step 1 : I opened the eml file using the below command . C:\>"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe" c:\Users\PRABAK RX\Desktop\example.eml file has got opened. step 2 : I tried to print the file using the command prompt by giving the foolowing command. C:\>"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe" /PT c:\Users\PRABAK RX\Desktop\example.eml I am getting the complete exe is launched and file is not printed. I need the file to be printed on the formt he thunderbird.exe automatically when the command is given. please help me out in this. The problem is that .eml file support is limited. Thunderbird will display the contents, but doesn't treat it as a message. That means it can't be copied, moved, printed etc. However, you should be able to include it as an attachment in a message that that you send to yourself, and then open and print that attachment using Thunderbird.
ok thanks! can u please give me the command to invoke the file menu while opening the eml file in thunderbird?
ALT+F is the shortcut. Usually a shortcut is the ALT key plus one or more letters. If a menu item has a shortcut the letter is underlined. So ALT+F+O launches the window to specify the .eml file.
Ctrl+Shift+A launches the window to specify an attachment when you are composing a message. hi. I asked the command to print the feml file from thunderbird.exe through command prompt. As far as I know that doesn't exist. There is limited support for command line arguments. See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Command_line_ ... hunderbird
I got the Command Line Print 0.5.2 extension to print in Thunderbird 31.

hi,
Actually i need to print the .eml file using thunderbird.exe through command prompt or if there is any.net code to implement using thunderbird DLL i willhappy to implement it. please help me on it. cmdlnprint_0_5_2.zip contains 1 file:
cmdlnprint_0_5_2.xpi (a ZIP file) cmdlnprint_0_5_2.xpi contains 10 files: install.rdf chrome.manifest components\cmdlnprint.js chrome\license.txt chrome\content\mininav.js chrome\content\mininav.xul chrome\content\preferences.xul chrome\locale\en-US\mininav.dtd chrome\locale\en-US\preferences.dtd defaults\preferences\cmdlnprintSettings.js You need to edit the following files inside the extension file. install.rdf chrome.manifest components\cmdlnprint.js chrome\content\mininav.js The first file has Windows line endings. The other files have Unix line endings which Notepad does not support. You should also check for nefarious code before installing the extension since it has not been reviewed by Mozilla. P.S. There is no way to access Thunderbird from C#/.NET or VBA.
