How do i move old POP emails ONLY to new thunderbird install without moving across all my profile settings, , accounts, calendar, preferences etc. I wish to import these emails into a new profile.

For disaster redundancy, my emails are stored on a different drive than the ever crashalot windows.

Import export tools never actually seems to work, instead only displaying unaopenable .eml files into hundred of new folders.

I am doing this because my 12 year old profile (legally required for data retention for my work) has so many config bugs in it that it is rendering the account useless.

thanks

Select the messages, Ctrl+S to save them as eml files. Open TB in the new profile, create a subfolder of Local Folders, add the eml files by drag and drop from File Explorer to the subfolder.

Thanks so much. Just checking, do I have to do that folder by folder, or just the parent folder (inTB)?

I would do one folder at a time, and confirm the copy.
