No, you don't have to close your ears, I'll scream quietly, I promise. :-) While I used to love my Thunderbird email program, I started looking through the folders tonight. It's been a few days since I really checked to see what I've received. I don't have a clue about what the program is doing/has done. Several emails I have multiple copies for, some as many as five; the filters work when they want to, and aren't even unchecking as they used to when there was a problem.
I spent at least 15 minutes again today deleting emails from Gmail online because either it or Tbird or both can't receive/send the message that messages have been deleted - so when Tbird picks up, the messages are still in Gmail (we decided once that it was probably dial-ups fault - and I have POP3). I have, while Tbird was off, gone in under Windows Explorer and looked at the data folders - there are folders and emails in there that I deleted ages ago, from all 3 of the accounts that I get. You all know how I feel about not being able to automatically sort the filters. HP's diagnostics says my hard drive passes all the tests. I scan regularly with my avast!, and ran the online scanner with bit defender a couple of days ago, and both report that I am clean. Getting ready to run bd again, because avast!'s daily run says I'm fine. I loved Eudora. For a long while Tbird was a great replacement. (I'm running Windows 7 Home, by the way.) I get 2-400 emails a day. I love that Thunderbird is non-Microsoft. I like the ease of transferring and adding and subtracting folders. I like the relative ease of backing up my filters and data. I wanted/want something that's actually being worked on, for support. Any suggestions for replacement? I would definitely appreciate them. I have several folders, and definitely some "to keep" emails, so I don't feel I can just try programs randomly. I want something reliable, not Microsoft, where I can sort filters automatically, it won't lose emails, backs up at least decently well, can handle several accounts (at least 3) with many emails a day, and sorts/filters like it's supposed to. I suppose I'm looking for a dream program?
