I've successfully set up Thunderbird on my PC to using my xx@xx.fsnet.co.uk email address. It sends and receives fine, and it has imported all 1,500 emails (20 years worth!!) from my fsnet inbox into my Thunderbird inbox, and kept a copy on the server as requested.

But I can't see how to import my fsnet webmail "sent" folder and another 30 folders I created into folders on Thunderbird; or to export them from fsnet into Thunderbird.

I've seen a suggestion here for orange (which took over fsnet) to gmail, but it's very laborious, and also it doesn't solve the "sent" problem. Is there a more automated way please?

This is the suggestion: http://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Home-Broadband/Orange-Webmail-My-Folders/m-p/182291#M4081 "I created parallel folders in Gmail including a dummy Inbox folder. I did the same in Orange Webmail (OW). I moved the Inbox contents in both to the two dummy Inboxes for safe keeping. I then copy the contents of each folder in OW into the new, empty Inbox folder, waited for them to sync to Gmail and then archived into the appropriate folder. This whole process has been time-consuming, laborious and prone to error. However, it seems to have worked. However, when I tried to do the same with the messages in the Sent folder in OW, they moved happily into the empty Inbox folder but Gmail refused to sync them. Even worse, OW then refused to move them back to the original Sent folder!"

All that is needed is imap instead of pop. The issue is does your provider offer it. I do not think Orange do, about legacy Free Serve I have no idea.

So I think your stuck with laborious.

Proprietary solutions (even web mail) are a trap that even Governments and Huge corporations have fallen into, so you are not alone.
