Since Centos 4.3 comes with Thunderbird 1.0.8, I downloaded the

So I setup the following script, acct1mail:
set MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1
/usr/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird -profile ~/data/acct1/Mail &
set MOZ_NO_REMOTE=0
and acct2mail
set MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1
/usr/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird -profile ~/data/acct2/Mail &
set MOZ_NO_REMOTE=0
On a package-based system, use packages, not source.

I downloaded the rpm as a user, but ran the rpm SUed. Three problems:
Does not fix my MOZ_NO_REMOTE problem.
You might try :
MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1
export MOZ_NO_REMOTE
YES! that seems to work.
also, after quick google, are you meant to specify profile location,
or profile name?
Instead of
-profile ~/data/acct1/Mail
try,
-P "Profile Name"
I believe either works. I have always used the former. And it worked
fine in XP with TB 1.5.
No ICON associated in the window (running gnome).
OK, you may have to logout & log back in again for GNOME to pickup on
icons -- there may be a command to get GNOME to detect new
icons/reread pixmaps dire - unsure.
No dice. I had even did a shutdown, so I could boot up my XP drive to
grab a couple of files from that.
No pretty ICONs.
And I noticed that the Gnome Applications -> Internet -> Thunderbird
does not have an icon. It pointed to mozilla-thunderbird that is gone
in 1.5
When I do an extensions check update, I get a whole bunch of language
extenstions listed that cannot be checked as:
Update not supported (install location is read only).
This is normal - to update language extensions (which is not stored in
local user profile), you must run as root/su'd.
I hope I can ignore the language extensions...
Oh and this compose window and the extensions window also lack their
icons.
As above - try logging in & out.
See above.
Is there a beta 4.4 list where I should point this out?
centos-devel list I assume,
http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-devel
Also, try not top-posting, makes it harder/more effort to reply.
Still getting TB to work the way Eudora did. None of the quoting
options are as good as Eudora's was, and I am still stumbling along...
