Can I Get A Combined Inbox In Thunderbird?

Answer : I believe the feature you are looking for is called 'Unified Folders' which works on both IMAP and POP3 protocols. The official site location: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Global_Inbox#Unified_Folders Quote from the site: Unified Folders (originally named Smart Folders when it was added in 3.0) is a folder pane view which looks like a global inbox account by merging the contents of all inbox folders (both POP, IMAP and local folders) from all accounts. It also shows the inbox of each account as a child folder of the unified Inbox account. Any messages in an inbox shows up in both the root of the unified Inbox, plus the child folder of the unified Inbox for that account. To use this functionality: View >> Folders >> Unified I have verified that this does work on Thunderbird 12.0.1 using Ubuntu 12.04 . The KB article I found above it a bit old but still holds correct information about the functionality of the 'Unified Folders...

Android How To Create Intent Filter For Custom File Extension That Does NOT Make It Part Of A Chooser For Everything On The Phone

Answer : The only way to solve this problem is add scheme and host attributes to your intent filter: <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /> <data android:scheme="file" /> <data android:mimeType="*/*" /> <data android:pathPattern=".*\\.tgtp" /> <data android:host="*" /> </intent-filter> That is because in documentation says that android:pathPattern only works if has an scheme and host defined. http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/data-element.html Hope it helps. I've been struggling with this quite a bit for a custom file extension, myself. After a lot of searching, I found this web page where the poster discovered that Android's patternMatcher class (which is used for the pathPattern matching in Intent-Filters) has unexpected behavior when y...

Android - Canceling The Sending Of A Queued Email In Gmail For Android

Answer : I didn't try Matthew's solution but it seems the safer solution to try first. If that doesn't work though, I deleted the entire conversation from the outbox , having given up on trying to keep the conversation. I was surprised to find that this only deleted the queued message. The rest of the conversation stayed intact in my inbox. One way would be to clear the data for Gmail via the Settings app.

Are Email Addresses Case Sensitive?

Answer : From RFC 5321, section 2.3.11: The standard mailbox naming convention is defined to be "local-part@domain"; contemporary usage permits a much broader set of applications than simple "user names". Consequently, and due to a long history of problems when intermediate hosts have attempted to optimize transport by modifying them, the local-part MUST be interpreted and assigned semantics only by the host specified in the domain part of the address. So yes, the part before the "@" could be case-sensitive, since it is entirely under the control of the host system. In practice though, no widely used mail systems distinguish different addresses based on case. The part after the @ sign however is the domain and according to RFC 1035, section 3.1, "Name servers and resolvers must compare [domains] in a case-insensitive manner" In short, you are safe to treat email addresses as case-insensitive. I know this ...
