That is easy. Just close down the program completely, open the profile in the explorer and drill down to the folder where the mail is stored (Profile/ImapMail/ servername) and delete the Sent and Sent.msf files. When you start the program again, it will download the headers of the Sent folder into Sent.msf again and will not create Sent (when you have switched off the offline copy and there is not some wiseguy programmer who thinks it is a good idea to save everything for offline just in case). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1074260 Title: Thunderbird heavy IMAP traffic downloading messages Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Fix Released Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Thunderbird (as of version 16?) generates a lot of IMAP traffic, continually redownloading messages.
