Thunderbird Debugging

Connection Debugging

• See http://email.about.com/od/mozillathunderbirdtips/qt/et_mail_log.htm
• Save the following to a file called ThunderBird_logging.bat

      Now when you are having connection problems use this batch file to start
      Thunderbird - it will create a log file on your desktop
      with a file name like thunderbird_20110410_1114.log  (ie
      thunderbird_YYYYMMDD_HHMM.log) when you use it to start Thunderbird.
      

• ThunderBird_logging.bat

set mydate=%date:~-4,4%%date:~-7,2%%date:~-10,2%
set mytime=%time:~0,2%%time:~+3,2%

set NSPR_LOG_MODULES=IMAP:4,POP3:4,SMTP:4
set NSPR_LOG_FILE=%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\thunderbird_%mydate%_%mytime%.log

start thunderbird.exe
