Hellos everyone,

Q1:

I have Thunderbird on Mac, and over the years have had several profiles on it. I was always using IMAP for all of my email profiles, and when I go to the ImapMail I see at least 21 profiles.

Each folder has a name, and then an .msf copy of it. So for example, it will show imap.domain.com, and then imap.domain.com.msf

I no longer have access to the online server, so this local copy is the only server I have.

The mail folders, not counting the duplicates msf files are 21. I am attaching an email here for easier reference.

I want for all of these emails to show up on Thunderbird, but so far only 4 profiles show on Thunderbird. How do I get all the profile to show up on my Thunderbird so I can read them ?

Q2:

Where would I be able to find the attachments in the Thunderbird emails ? Is there a local file that I should be looking into ?

some thoughts: - highlight account, rightclick and select 'subscribe' to see you are subscribed to them - you might also click account settings>synchronization&storage and the 'advanced' button to see if they are selected for download.
