Thunderbird 1.5.0.9 issues?

(1/1)

Renegade:
Is anyone having problems with TB 1.5.0.9?

1.5.0.8 was pretty smooth (1 pain with malformed headers), but .9 seems to require an abnormal number of restarts (like 1~2x per day sometimes).

I'm getting address book errors, spell checking errors (every word is underlined red), can't display folders, etc. etc. etc.

I checked for previous versions at the Mozilla site, but didn't see any available.

Anyways, just curious.

I don't use thunderbird but i know you can dig through their ftp site for previous builds

I am a fanbody for tuffmail.com and Horde/IMP webmail, however, I decided to download and install Thunderbird yesterday. I have used it in the past and was very happy, but when I got my new computer I just stuck to webmail. What prompted me to reinstall Thunderbird was that I often like to take advantage of the convenience of being able to do simply things like "send page" and "send link" or use "mailto:" links. The second was that there is a beta version of Thunderbird 2.x now available.

Well, I'm writing 1.5.0.9 off as a real dog in the line. Back to 1.5.0.8 and things seem to be ok. But it's kind of scaring me off of 2.x - especially as it's beta. If anyone with a large mailbox (mine is about 1.4GB) has any experience with 2.x, please post about it.

Renegade:
Just an update -

I installed v1.5.0.8 and things were running smoothly once again. Then I noticed that I'd set TB to auto-update!  :huh: (Gee - that was brilliant...  :-[)
