Sometimes when I start Thunderbird I forgot to plugin my flash drive. Actual Results: I get an error message like "A Thunderbird apllication is already running but cannot be connected" (I get a german error message and I tried to translate it) Expected Results: An error message like "Cannot find user profile directory /some/where". I guess creating a lock file failed and this event is prematurely interpreted as "profile is already in use by another application instance".
