Restoring An Old Local Folder
I want to restore a Local Folder to a newly installed Thunderbird. I have a complete copy of the Local Folder and want to copy it into the Mail directory (as it was previously). I then want to have it included in the programs index. Will this approach work if I re index the entire program which should pick up these messages and then display them under the categories that are spelled out for the Local Folder? Any help would be appreciated ... Robert

If you copy the old Local Folders into the Mail subfolder of the new profile, with TB closed, delete all the .msf files there and in any .sbd subdirectories. When TB is restarted, the folders will be indexed automatically - follow the progress in Tools/Activity Manager.
