Discrepancy between Inbox and Inbox file

When I was cleaning up mails in Thunderbird I noted that the Inbox under Local Folders is presented as containing zero messages, but the Inbox file under <my profile>/Mail/Local Folders contains roughly 400 MB of data. A quick look (via awk) tells me the messages already exist in other folders or are those that I have cleaned out.

A bit of background: I have for years downloaded (POP3) mail locally and and stored in my own folders under Local Folders. Message filters are set up to move each received mail to one of three folders. Nothing is supposed to end up in the default Inbox.

Any ideas of how to best reduce the size of the Inbox file?

Hi,

I am having some problems going through Confluence Pages with firefox in windows. I found out that I am not the only one.

Can you check this please? https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-88208

This only happens with firefox, not with other browsers like edge, chrome, opera, vivaldi, brave...

Thanks.

I had to reset my firefox password. When signing in, the account is not synced (no extensions, history, bookmarks etc) and acts like it is the fresh instance. When manually syncing, it spins for a second then stops. Says it last synced 1 second ago. I see no data otherwise. Does resetting password seriously remove all data? What is the point of recovering the account if it gives you a fresh account anyway? There was a disclosure that mentioned some data, but not even including bookmarks or extensions is a little upsetting for me. Disrupted my work day quite a lot.

When creating a new event in calendar, the event organizer always shows the same incorrect email address. The calendar settings have the correct email but this is ignored. Create a new event and then invite attendees; the event organizer always has the same email address regardless of which calendar I am adding the event to. The incorrect email address that is shown is an old one that I do not use anymore.

My calendar syncs with a nextcloud calendar. It seems that TB is getting the email address used for password recovery and notifications and using for the meeting organizer. The email address set in the calendar properties in Nextcloud seems to be ignored.

Is this a bug, is there any chance to fix it?

Re-downloading of old emails

Many moons ago I used Microsoft's Outlook as my email program. When I would open Outlook, it would retrieve all of my emails from my ISP's server, permanently removing the emails from the server while downloading them into Outlook.

When I installed Thunderbird recently, it was to do the same thing. My ISP had sent me several notices that my email account was close to full, so I was looking for an email program that worked the same way Outlook does, and removes my emails from my ISP's email server as it downloads them to my PC.

The first issue I'm having is that Thunderbird does not appear to do this? Or do I simply have my Thunderbird account/settings set up incorrectly?

My next issue is directly tied to the first one. Every time I open Thunderbird it starts re-downloading all of the emails that it has previously already copied into my Thunderbird Inbox, but that are still in my email account on my ISP's email server. This is probably 15 years worth of emails and equates to thousands of emails I'm saving, and every time I open Thunderbird it starts re-downloading them again. I simply want to be able to save them to my local email client (Thunderbird) and store them on my PC's hard drive.

The final issue is also tied to the first two: As soon as it starts downloading the emails again, Thunderbird (and only Thunderbird) lags heavily and almost continuously. It lags so badly that it becomes incredibly difficult to write a new email in Thunderbird, and so I end up closing the program and logging into my ISP's email server and using their client to write my emails, or conducting my email business via my phone, which takes longer and is more challenging due to continuous fat-fingering of the phones tiny little keyboard.

So, am I missing something, or do I have some settings in Thunderbird set up incorrectly? Or does Thunderbird simply not work the same way Outlook does (or at least use to)?

Thanks in advance for any help or advice anyone is willing to give.

Would be nice to have a kind of "my own default setup of columns" function. In a topfolder, say Inbox I have arranged the columns I'd like to be present all over all subfolders. But Thunderbird apparantly does not work that way. Making a new subfolder somwhere I have to copy the layout from one folder that I prefer as my own general default layout and use the right click function "Apply columns to ..." .... every time making a new folder. That's a bit tiresome. It ought to be possible to have a function "Update default column layout" to my own liking. If it's already there please advice as reading forums and searching online does not give me an answer to this. Cheers
