File Mangler = File Manager (i.e., Nautilus, Konqueror, ROX-Filer, Midnight 
Commander, Xplorer, Velocity and etc etc etc)

Ok. Strange that. Did you setup T-Bird to actually download and then delete 
the email from your mail server? Sometimes folks tend to setup their email 
clients to leave the mail on the server...something to check in your 
configuration.

MY T-Bird is setup for IMAP mail - mainly because I have a mail server sitting 
in the lab that downloads all my email from Optusnet, then parses it for 
junk/spam/bugs/Telstra adverts/Kim Beasley pictures and etc, then nicely dump 
it into a ~Maildir directory - that way, the mail actually is *living* on my 
server and not on my workstation - giving me the freedom to use different 
email clients as fits my wimsy (T-Bird, Evolution, Kmail/Kontact, Sylpheed, 
Balsa, Pine - you get the picture)
