Hello Roger,
Thank you for your Reply. Thunderbird will have to wait for now as I
need an operating desktop box.
Right now I have boot problems with the box. I have 2 hard drives. SDA1
is booting ok at present. For historical reasons SDB8 should also be
bootable but insists on going to rescue mode. Both appear in the grub
menu. I have just completed a partial reinstall over the top for SDB8
but that did not fix the problem, I put grub onto SDA.
I am very suspicious that there is a motherboard fault as well. How do I
go about checking/fixing that? I have already checked cable and memory
cards are properly seated. They appear ok.
TIA,
Barry.

When you right click the account name in the left-most pane > Settings >
Server Settings, is the Local Directory set to the folder your profile
resides in? I have several accounts in my current install, they end
with the following path (one per account)
\Profiles\w92z88kc.default\ImapMail\imap.googlemail.com
\Profiles\w92z88kc.default\ImapMail\imap.googlemail-1.com
If not there is a browse button to point it to the correct place.
Another option: from the command line, run "thunderbird
--profilemanager" (note 2 hyphens there) where you can create (or delete
or rename) a profile, from where you can choose the folder containing
your existing folder.
Good luck - sorry I can't help in person.
Cheers,
Roger
