owner @{HOME}/.mozilla-thunderbird/{,**} rwlk,

Looking at the existing profile data template I think this should do the trick.


   # per-user thunderbird configuration
   owner @{HOME}/.{icedove,thunderbird}/ rw,
-  owner @{HOME}/.{icedove,thunderbird}/** rw,
+  owner @{HOME}/.{icedove,thunderbird,mozilla-thunderbird}/** rw,
   owner @{HOME}/.{icedove,thunderbird}/**/storage.sdb k,
   owner @{HOME}/.{icedove,thunderbird}/**/*.{db,parentlock,sqlite}* k,
   owner @{HOME}/.{icedove,thunderbird}/plugins/** rm,

This is definitely not sufficient - you need k (lock) permissions inside .mozilla-thunderbird for e.g. parentlock (otherwise you get the "another thunderbird process is running" message).

I think the answer is to adjust every line that has "owner @{HOME}/.{icedove,thunderbird}" to instead have owner @{HOME}/.{icedove,thunderbird,mozilla-thunderbird}" is the way to go, but I don't have time to try such a patch right now, sorry!

Regards,

Matthew
