On several occasions I tried the portable version of Thunderbird, but it never would work like expected when compared with the installed e-mail client.
But that isn't your problem. MAPI is your your problem. All mail clients support this standard, it allows for a mail message being generated, with the receiver, subject, body text and optional attachment automatically filled in. That more or less leaves one job for you to do and that is pressing the 'Send' button.
It shouldn't matter which e-mail client you use as this standard is supported on all clients.
However, Microsoft, in all their wisdom, made an extended version of MAPI to make a differentiation between their idea of an professional environment (Outlook and Exchange) and well, whatever...(any mail server with any mail client).
Depending on the MAPI functionality that is called upon by the software that wants to report the error, this can become a messy story. For example: encryption on a message-by-message basis requires the extended version of MAPI. Extended MAPI is only supported in Outlook. There are a lot more mail clients nowadays being able to connect to an Exchange Server, but for crap like this you have no other option than to use Outlook. To my knowledge at least.
Also, depending on the requested MAPI functionality, only certain Outlook/Exchange combinations are allowed.
You say you have Outlook 2002 on your PC, a version that is also known as Outlook XP. This is a very old version. So old in fact that Microsoft has already dropped support for the successor of your Outlook client. With that I mean to say that even if you configure your Outlook 2002 correctly, it could still fail just because it is too old (in Microsoft's opinion, not mine).
My usual advice is to just install the Thunderbird mail client as a regular application and you will see this problem go away automatically. Personally, I'm a great fan of portable applications and happily use these on a daily basis. Portable Thunderbird? Don't bother, it's just not worth it to lose your time troubleshooting over. It is only usable when you have very basic mail needs.-Shades (July 18, 2014, 05:22 PM)





So you want folders, but no files - in a 'flat' view where they can be sorted by created date?-tomos (July 15, 2014, 04:52 PM)
How can i do that ?. The flat view is very useful for me nowdays for filtering files from several folders.

Did you not get Directory Opus recently?
Or are you still on Windows Explorer (or whatever they call it these days)?
I dont know if you can filter for just folders in Dopus, I suspect you can - but first: do you have it?-tomos (July 16, 2014, 07:47 AM)

Contro,
We are not even close to discussing the same subject!
You seem to have wandered off into the woods and got lost???
I think the only way back is for you to install "Read Now" from Readability.com.............
open a very busy and cluttered web page.............
Convert it by clicking on "Read Now" in your menu bar............
When the cleaned up page comes up you can compare it with the original page.
The converted page should have a link to the "Original".

Hi Contro,
No DBU8 will not do what you are expecting, i.e. auto index all fields of all database.
It will,
1. Run in Win64 bit
2. Open DBF files
3. Allow index on one or combination of fields
4. Allow search on the indexed field values.
5. Allow locate value in any given field.
In short it will help you to get information from a DBF file in Win64 bit, but manually.
This I made to help for our in house staff working with our application Ace9 DBF and NTX files, in a Win64 bit environment. Since there is no such utility to handle DBF NTX files in Win64 bit.
To accomplish what you are looking for, one has to make an application for it accordingly.
Though it is a routine job for me, I am afraid, I can not do it as of now.
