Yes confusion prevails here.

I put on the server:[root@box10 6gjqb341.default]# cp -r Mail

Then on the second computer in Local Folders > Local Directory > 
/mnt/HOME1/email-accounts/Mail


Which I thought would display what I see on the computer "Mail" has been 
derived from however all I get is directories and sub-directories 
without message or mail filters:


pop.ggoglemail.com
and under that Archives, Drafts, Inbox, etc. which looks reasonable but 
there are no messages displayed?


I know that's not what you asked me to try but I'm trying to see what works.

I've had numerous interruptions today and don't know about tomorrow. 
This discussion would be better done off the list if your ISP would stop 
dumping my e-mail. I filed the complaint form as you suggested. Who 
knows if it will do any good ...

if you link thunderbird folders, it is better to link the email
directories for use by various workstations in case you want to have
access with different os and different version of thunderbird.

what is in *.default should not be used among various thunderbird
versions on various workstations.

> but I have not been able to devise a link that works.
>
> No doubt the wrong approach?

how are you trying to make links, terminal or with file browser?


if i am reading correctly, what to do for thunderbird to link to the
*.default directory, is;

  /home/bobg/.thunderbird/*.default -> /mnt/HOME1/*/*/default/

where "/mnt/HOME1/*/*/default/" is path for the *.default directory
that you use for access by what ever workstation you are on. as long
as all are same os and version. also, note that server directory is,
can be, _default_ and not _.default_ .

then, at "/mnt/HOME1/*/*/default/Mail" directory, you have;

  Local Folders/
  pop.googlemail-1.com/
  pop.googlemail-2.com/
  pop.googlemail.com/
  pop.wildblue.net/

it might be better is you link to "HOME1" email accounts with;

  /home/bobg/.thunderbird/6gjqb341.default/Mail ->
 /mnt/HOME1/thunderbird/email-accounts/

then in the linked */email-accounts/ directory, you put the 3
pop-googlemail* accounts and pop.wildblue.net account and Local Folders.

now if you want to have the 3 gmail accounts where you can move the
email folders where ever you want, you would do this on workstation;

  create a new folder under Local Folders with name "gmail".

then link them in as;

  /home/bobg/.thunderbird/6gjqb341.default/Mail/Local Folders/gmail ->
 /mnt/HOME1/thunderbird/email-accounts/

so that you would have on your workstation in your

   /home/bobg/.thunderbird/6gjqb341.default/Mail/

these directories;

   pop.wildblue.net
   Local Folders

*NOTE* that the pop.wildblue.net is on workstation, not on server.

if you want _all_ your workstations to have common email access, then
pop.wildblue.net and Local Folders would be in the;

   /mnt/HOME1/thunderbird/email-accounts/

directory.


do you follow how you can link email folders now or did i confuse you?


on this system, in /home/geo directory, i have directories;

   .thunderbird
   .thunderbird-00-hold
   .thunderbird-2015-0624-1646
   .thunderbird-2015-0624-1733
   .thunderbird-2015-0709-2101
   .thunderbird-2015-0814-0350
   .thunderbird-email/Mail

where;

   .thunderbird-00-hold is for holding what ever for thunderbird
   .thunderbird-2015-* are time stamped backup copies of .thunderbird

   .thunderbird-email/Mail is linked to from ~/.thunderbird/*.default/Mail

this way, i make backups of thunderbird profile directory without all of
the email directories.

i do same for ~/.kde and ~/.mozilla


later.

Well I see that I can read the gmail files by browsing to:

Thunderbird account settings for the
/home/bobg/.thunderbird/m6ef68kn.default/Mail/mail.wildblue.net

That's a step in the right direction but might not be convenient. 
However the more I think about it, that might be all I really need to 
do? I mainly need a way to read older mail.

..

i will make some presumptions to above questions #1 -> #4:

  1- you want to move gmail filters to wildblue.net, except that if
 you just move them, they will overwrite what you have already
 set for wildblue.net.

  2- gmail filters need to be added to wildblue by;

 open both filter files, cut and paste gmail filters starting
 with first line that reads "name=" thru to last line that
 reads "condition=" to filter file for wildblue.net.

 you can paste them either to end of wildblue.net filter or
 in between line "logging=" and first line "name="

 where you put them should be determined by what you have highest
 amount of emails. ie, high traffic 1st reduces time of thunderbird
 finding match.

   3- i will not attempt to guess.

   4- if you are willing to move emails out of account folders and into
  Local Folders, you will eliminate a lot of problems that can arise
  and give you ability to move folders to what ever branch you want
  and thunderbird will make changes to filter file for you.

  having all email folders under Local Folders will eliminate problems
  i described in my post "Date: Sun, 16 Aug 2015 07:47:32 -0500"

  if you agree and would like to do so, all that needs to be done
  is, with thunderbird close, use file browser to build new branch
  names, then move email folder files to new location.

  filter file is then edited with a simple 'remove and replace' to
  file. which i will go into 'how' if you want to use Local Folders.

something to consider with using Local Folders to hold all emails is that
you can make branches with name of email server then use same email folder
names under the server name.

branch names can have then names of;

   list that you subscribe to, organization as branch name, folder name of
   individual list name.

   friends and families last name, email folders have person's first name.

   "personal", email folders for what ever. ie, banking, credit card, etc.

all of which you will be able to move where ever, when ever and not have
to be concerned about editing filters or moving folders with file browser.

after you get email branches and folder files where you want them, you
need to open the *.default directory and delete the "master index" file
named "panacea.dat".

next in a command line terminal in *.default directory, execute command;

   rm -fR *.msf

to remove all of the .msf index files. when you open thunderbird again,
it will create new .msf files and build a new panacea.dat file

if there are any questions or anything you are wondering about, ask. ;-)

so, what did i not cover?


later.

my apologies that i have a crappy email server.

i guess you have been added to yuckahoo's "bounce or delete and spam" list.

to confirm, i signed into my yuckahoo email account to see what may have
happened.

would you believe that i found that _all_ of you emails in this thread
were in the 'spam' folder?

i marked them as 'Not Spam' so it will be interesting to see if your
emails get marked as 'spam'.

as for any email directly to me, i can only guess that it either got
bounced or it was deleted, and i do not mean it was in 'trash' folder.
i mean deleted, as in nowhere to be found.

so, please resend to see if it gets to me.

all of this is going to go into a letter that i am sending to at&t
accounting office because of their crappy billing.

with thunderbird, you can drag an email folder to a different place and
thunderbird will update your filers to reflect new folder location.

with one exception, an email folder _can_not_ be moved between account

folders or Local Folders is to create a new folder where you want emails,
then drag the emails to new folder.

alternative is to close thunderbird and use a file browser, locate the
folder file you want to move, then drag the folder file to new location
and delete to *.msf file for the folder file.

same applies for moving a top folder if you use subfolders.


as for filters, if you move an email folder in thunderbird window,
thunderbird will modify the filter/s for that folder to new location.

and again, with one exception, which again is moving an email folder

this is where you close thunderbird, then again using file browser,

to edit, make a backup of the file, then open file in a plane text

filter file has a basic layout of;

knowing you, i can well imagine. :-P

remember this:

  email is email is email email is email is email email is email is email.

got that? ;-)

you should not look at it as old and new because what you received via
gmail, you will now receive via wildblue. think about that.

think of email not by email server. think of email by who sent it and/or
what it relates to.

do not concern yourself with facts that really have no practical importance.

do not sort email under the email agent. sort email so that it is moved
to email folders under "Local Folders".

do not filter email spam. filter email by sender. let unfiltered email
"fall thru" to "Inbox" under "Local Folders". as such, any emails that
hit Inbox are either new wanted email that you will set a filter for,
or it is spam which you highlight, then click "Spam" icon. thunderbird's
adaptive filtering works very well and after you have hit spam icon a few
times for a sender, thunderbird will learn sender or contents of email
and move those emails to "Spam" folder.

such is done by making last filter filter all emails that reach it get
moved to Local Folders / Inbox.

because you have probable already set filters to filter under the agent
there is a very easy way to move those filters to your new agent and
have emails moved under "Local Folders". [more later on editing filters]

too many people fail to see that an email agent is just that, an email
agent and should treat them as such.

see above.

after you have read this and replied with what ever you are confused with,
i will explain how to set up email folders under Local Folders and answer
what you are confused about.

something to give thought to is to look at how *nix sets up root
directories and then breaks things down further with additional directories.

"/" is the base of a tree. each directory in "/" is a branch and depending
on what that branch is, there will or not have further branching.

it is a logical way to organize.

then consider email Local Folders as the "/" base and all folder branches
are classifications as to what your incoming emails are.

ok. you need to contact gmail.com and ask them how you can go about
regaining access to your emails.

gaagle should have given wildblue enough time to notified their customers
that gmail service was ending so wildblue customers could pull their
emails off gmail server.

such crap is why i like small independent isp's that allow customers to
use ftp connection to their server directory.

set up one of your servers to pull all emails. set filters to move emails
to various folders by recipient, by sender, as in subscribed list, etc.

for each user/recipient, mount the server drive and path to the above
folder directories on user/recipient system. link the directories to
the thunderbird "Mail/Local Folders" subfolder.

by soft linking nsf directories into "Mail/Local Folder" path, you can
eliminate having to do so manually.

maybe we need to get a group together of linux users that are having email
server problems and jointly set up on a host our own site and email server
so we can start to enjoy emails again. :-)

mozilla supplies 'generic' *.tar.bz2 installation files that install in

i have never used such, only read about them. i may be wrong, but

also, for more info about what to do, have a look at;

   https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/40.0.2/releasenotes/


personally, i believe you would be better of by picking a mirror site
and pull the .rpm file. once you have it, run a local install.

just look thru your /etc/yum.repos.d/ files to get url for mirror list
then go to that page to find a site to pull from.

such will be easier than pulling from mozilla because it is already
complied for os.

For a long time I have simply done:  rsync -avu 
/home/bobg/.Thunderbird/6gjqb341.default/Mail/* /mnt/HOME1/MAIL to an 
NFS server and reversed the process in the other computers to transfer 
mail and peripheral stuff so all the thunderbirds look identical, 
filters, directories, etc. Now Thunderbird configured for 
"mail.wildblue.net will not accept files from the original configured as 
pop.gmail.com, and that too is probably just as well. However once I 
have all the Thunderbird computers in the new configuration I will have 
difficulty reading the old messages should I have need for them, I will 
pretty much have burnt my bridges. I could do something but it just 
seems messy, ideally I would like to transfer between the two.


There are other disadvantages to the switch away from gmail too but this 
is not the place for that. I have other users on my system and I have 
been busy fixing stuff.


Thanks,

Bob

mozilla supplies 'generic' *.tar.bz2 installation files that install in
/opt.

i have never used such, only read about them. i may be wrong, but
i believe they need tweaking.

firefox-40.0.2.tar.bz2 is available from;

  https://download-installer.cdn.mozilla.net/

complete list of latest for os, 32/64, language from;

  https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/

also, for more info about what to do, have a look at;

  https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/40.0.2/releasenotes/


personally, i believe you would be better of by picking a mirror site
and pull the .rpm file. once you have it, run a local install.

just look thru your /etc/yum.repos.d/ files to get url for mirror list
then go to that page to find a site to pull from.

such will be easier than pulling from mozilla because it is already
complied for os.

Sounds like you want DNF Automatic, configured to download but not
apply. See http://dnf.readthedocs.org/en/latest/automatic.html
