Opera 9 Mail & Sandboxie

Post by TerryWood » Mon Apr 17, 2006 4:57 pm

I've just installed Sandboxie and got as far as sandboxing the browser part of Opera.

I'm struggling to put together the configuration for the M2 mail part.

Can anyone help please.

I'm using Opera 9. Any help must be simple & idiot proof

Many thanks

Terry

Re: Opera 9 mail in Sandboxie

This is the warning message when you try to use outlook express:
WARNING: Your mail program is about to start. Sandboxie is not configured to allow the program direct access to your mailbox files and preferences. Any new mail messages that are received to your computer will be stored in the sandbox and may not be easily recoverable.

It is recommended that you do not allow the mail program to start. Click ignore to ignore this warning and run your mail program anyway. Any other button cancels the operation.
So basically if you don't keep your mail on the server, it will all be deleted if the sandbox gets emptied. As for Opera 9 mail, I haven't tried it, do you have issues or are getting error messages?

Hi Terry, please see this post, which is the same thing, only for Eudora. Perhaps it can give you an idea how to configure Opera M2. If that post is not enough and you feel you need further assistance, please don't hestitate to say so.
how to get the mail that has been
downloaded in sandboxed mode back onto my hard drive Opera Mail folders?
(from email)

Easiet way has to be to forward these mails to yourself in the sandboxed mail reader,

then switch to non-sandboxed mail reader and download them again.
