Thunderbird Portable is a special build of Mozilla Thunderbird that is optimized for use on a USB key drive. It has some specially-selected optimizations to make it perform faster and extend the life of your USB key as well as a specialized launcher that will allow most of your favorite extensions to work as you switch computers.

You might also want to take a look at Mobility Email, which is another portable distribution for Mozilla Thunderbird with Enigmail OpenPGP baked in.

Yet another portable distribution for Thunderbird is X-Thunderbird.

How to extract: Download the self-extracting EXE and extract to a folder of your choice. Launch ThunderbirdPortable.exe.

Stealth [?]: No

Unicode support: Partial. Thunderbird has problems creating local files with filenames that cannot be encoded using the current code page. For example, if your current code page is Chinese, but you are trying to save to a Korean filename, the output filename will be a bunch of underscore characters.
