Re: SOLVED: Thunderbird can't read Mail
Hi Zeff, You are right your method will work as long as the destination location in local folders is empty as you are overwriting those files when you do your copy. The method I was suggesting was to get the second set of emails to be listed as an inbox as I thought they were on the original system. But either method will work as long as appropriate precautions are taken. regards, Steve On 04/26/2014 10:19 AM, Joe Zeff wrote: On 04/25/2014 05:06 PM, Stephen Morris wrote: Just my 2 cents worth, which may or may not help.

Re: SOLVED: Thunderbird can't read Mail
Hi Mickey, Just my 2 cents worth, which may or may not help. As I understand the way Thunderbird works, the mail files in your profile directory that Thunderbird uses are defined in the Local directory text box in the Message Storage section at the bottom of your Sever Settings in your Account Definition, which unfortunately as far as I am aware doesn't support multiple directories. You should be able to set up a new account definition for your mail isp to use the second mail directory and configure that account definition to not retrieve emails from your ISP's server, which will then provide you with access to those mails from that account definition down the left hand side, and it should also never fetch any new emails. This is similar to what I did when I changed distributions and just reused the thunderbird mail directory, and what I did when I configured my Thunderbird to be able to access my wife's mail directory which is on the same pc. regards, Steve On 04/26/2014 02:31 AM, Mickey wrote: On 04/25/2014 12:00 PM, Paul Cartwright wrote: On 04/25/2014 11:36 AM, Mickey wrote: On 04/25/2014 11:18 AM, Jatin K wrote: On Friday 25 April 2014 08:31 PM, Mickey wrote: On 04/25/2014 06:45 AM, Jatin K wrote: On Friday 25 April 2014 02:57 PM, Mickey wrote: On 04/25/2014 02:33 AM, Jatin K wrote: On Thursday 24 April 2014 10:23 PM, Mickey wrote: Local Folders Local Folders-1 mail.comcast-1.net mail.comcast.net smart.mailboxes did you try under edit-account settings , comcast account, click on server settings. down at the bottom, point it to you mail.comcast.net folder Under accountsettings in Server setting I changed it to read the "mail.comcast.net" and now I can read the old Emails .
