Thunderbird V24 major bug
When I spend 2 hours chasing what appears to be a bug in a popular program such as Thunderbird, I feel I should warn others, so that they don't follow the same path, and waste their time.
Problem from V24.x.x All of a sudden I'm getting this message while in Account Settings......in fact, I can't do anything (click off of Local Folders) without that message popping up. What could be causing this?
Error Message is: "Local Directory Path Is Not Suitable For Message Storage"
Temporary fix is: Instead of opening the account manager via "Tools" -> "Account Settings", right-click on an account name in the folder pane and choose "Settings..." without getting the error/warning message. Hence I was able to modify the account settings unless I clicked on "Local Folders" where I got the error or warning message again.
works for me, w7pro-64
Thread is at:
It is in the mozilla bug report, so sometime in the future, it should be fixed.
