Mine is Thunderbird 17.0.5 on a Suse 12.1, and I use it rather heavily, too. There are 5 mail accounts, and folders for the mailing lists, filters, just like on your system. This phenomenon has only occured with the Gambas list, but it used to be only a few times a year. For some months, however, it has happened more often, about 20 times this year. Oh, and I run only POP mail, no IMAP, so it's Thunderbird alone who will manage the mails. I make a nightly backup of the whole system with Dirvish, and change the backup HD every week, I think that's enough. Or isn't that what you mean? Moreover, to keep the mailing list(s) not too crowded, I let Thunderbird put all old messages to an Archive folder every new year. (Strangely enough, it will not put all messages into the right folders at the first run, but a few dozen will have to be sorted by hand. I know that, and it's no great thing. And it is not confined to the Gambas list.) So I have a fresh folder again this year, and I can see that some mails land at the beginning. Do you think it would help to use a newer version of Thunderbird? As far as I remember, I had this problem even with the older one on the former system.
