I have profile, but no email, and file is 1.4 gb
I played smart with thunderbird, as it showed a meessage every time I try to use. The message stated something about "the directory in profile is not suited to hold email" (don't know exact phrase, as it was in spanish) , but still, it received and sended email.
I changed the profile directory to other place, and moved (copy) the contents of the previous profile, and when opening thunderbird, and when selecting folder on left pane, the cursor starts to spin for hours, but won't show any email...
Help.

Can you restore the files and the directories to their previous locations?
Then you could do a proper backup and restore the profile elsewhere, as needed.
