Thunderbird Startup

Featured Replies

I am using Ubuntu 9.04 and I cannot get Thunderbird to start on bootup. If I go to a terminal and type 'thunderbird' it starts but in system/preferences 'Startup Applications' it does not....

I have my mail on my number six desktop and don't close it if I shut down or reboot.  I then have the system set to restore last session so anything I don't close before shut down is restarted like it was.  Also handi in keeping gkrellm in place on desktop number one.  or a torrent to restart without my having to do it.   If you put them in the auto start they will always start and sometimes thats not what I want.  I can close first and its easy to put back just don't close them first the next time.

I know this is a question about Thunderbird, but I cannot help recommend Evolution if you are running Ubuntu. One of the best mail clients available. Might take a little time to get used to, but has many nice features and integrate well with the system.

Thunderbird was supposed to be "a lightweight mail/news/RSS client" but in Linux it is nothing but a slow, bloated and buggy app. It looks like a pre-alpha test version coded by a Windows user totally irrespectful of gnome standards :) I think Mozilla should keep coding for Windows but forget about Linux !

To me, the best and fastest email clients for gnome are :

1/ Claws-mail

2/ Evolution.

Second this advice. Just shut down with the apps you want to load at startup still running. Tick the "save session" box, and you're set. I use xubuntu though, but IIRC gnome has this feature too.
