Hello - Recently, I deleted thousands of old e-mail messages from my gmail server. When I launched Thunderbird, the Compact Folders dialog box popped up asking if I want do have the deleted messages purged from the disk.

I am afraid of deleting old messages that I already downloaded to Thunderbird. I just wanted them deleted from the server.

When I read messages that arrive in my Thunderbird inbox, I archive the ones that I want saved to a folder in 'Local Folders'. Any other emails I receive are sent to trash. Sent e-mails are stored in my 'sent' folder and have not been moved to the Local Folders.

Please let me know what I will be 'deleting' if I agree to this option.

Version 91 comes out in several weeks, in which the language of the compact dialog has been greatly improved. When you install version 91, if compact causes problems, please create a new support topic.
