I still get this message: The folder Inbox is full, and can't hold any more messages. To make room for more messages, delete any old or unwanted mail and compact the folder.

You can create folders under the 'Local Folders' account (shown in the left hand pane of the Thunderbird window) and then move emails from your Inbox into them. This will free up capacity in your Inbox and you will still have the emails accessible on your computer. Be aware, though, that if yours is an IMAP mail account this procedure will remove the emails from the remote server. You should therefore make regular backups of your TB profile (which includes all your saved emails) in case you ever want to move those saved emails to another machine.

I have deleted or archived about 1/2 the messages, done the "repair" and I still get the same message. Moving to a new inbox will not solve the problem.

Thank you, it has been fixed. Evidently it wasn't compacting when I told it to compact. I ended up re-installing the program and compact worked after that.

I just started having this problem after updating to the latest release.

How do I "repair" the folder, please ?

Right-clicking on the folder offers 'Compact' which I tried, seems not to have made any difference.
