I have to backup of Gmail with Thunderbird Portable, so I could free some space on server - but when I use IMAP (to keep labels) after deletin on server... ...my post also deletes on Thunderbird. Please make an option to prevent it, so deleting on a server doesn't effect mail in the Thunderbird. I would be so happy to have it...

First Thunderbird portable is supported by its author at portableapps.com. Secondly you are describing exactly how the IMAP email standard works and Thunderbird has no control over that. Thunderbird has Local Folders to move messages that you want to keep locally. Maybe the portable version does too.
