Thunderbird 9.0 issues

Not so minor

(not in order)

  1. TB 9 does not install on XP Pro SP3: error registering AccessibleMarshal.dll and MapiProxy_InUse.dll - [bug 712960], [GS] - cannot reproduce with Windows XP Service Pack 2 and 3 as well as Vista, perhaps due to 3rd party software that is locking those 2 DLLs it's a Thunderbird packaging bug, fix is pending

Minor issues or issue fixed in TB 10 or future release

See Thunderbird 10 User Changes Page

(not in order, numbered only for convenience; minor = no dataloss or non dataloss mac and linux problems since only 5% or less of TB users are mac or linux)

Daily Support Reports

(selected dates starting the day after release day which was December 21, 2011; can't do this for every day obviously :-) !)

December 22, 2011

(selected potential issues)

  1. Thunderbird 9 fails to copy and paste from Microsoft Word !!!! - [GS1] - I doubt this is a TB9 problem or even a Thunderbird problem but will double check. - Can't reproduce with Word 2010. Probably something wrong with the OP's Windows setup?
  2. Potential Mail Server Problems - doubt these are TB9 specific or even TB problems, Roland to check
    1. [GMX] - Nothing that points to anything other than a Settings or GMX problem
    2. [Verizon] - Verizon changed ports but nothing that points to anything other than a Settings or Verizon problem
  3. Data Loss - These don't look TB9 specific but will follow up
    1. Lost Thunderbird address book and email folders, [GS1] - Roland's Followup
    2. Inbox e-mails suddenly disappeared - [GS1]
