I have tried every method I've found on Mozilla threads from modifying the profile.ini file to merging the profile folders, etc. I have the original Thunderbird profile (including all folders, inbox, sent items etc) on the original hard drive that is set up as a secondary hard drive (E:) in the new computer.

No matter what I try, I can't get Thunderbird to pick up that old profile. I've uninstalled and re-installed T-Bird nearly a dozen times now (and deleted the folders from the AppData folders) to try to get it to pick up the original profile.

Any suggestions????

Create a new profile and copy the old one over it. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Moving_your_profile_folder_-_Thunderbird#Create_a_new_profile_and_copy_the_old_one_over_it

Re-installing Thunderbird is a complete waste of time. It won't do anything to your profile.
