I've spent 3 days solid painstakingly importing 13,500 emails into folders, sub folders, sub sub folders... you get the idea by dragging each folder to: user > hd > library > TB > profiles > 0jh881aq.default > mail > local folders. I quit TB and restarted and each time the new folders were showing fine. I checked each folder that the contents was the same as in entourage, finally it was all done and I converted all the folders to 'read'.

One by one they keep popping back up as un-read and now the entire received library contents has vanished. I can see the received folder just nothing in it. If I follow the above go to chain all the contents is there, and I've even copied out back to the desktop and back in again, but it doesn't come back. I've tried to repair the folder in properties, but nothing seems to work.

Can someone help on these issues please, I really dont want to copy it all back again.

Try this (it will not take long and will either work or not.)

Move all your folders out of Thunderbirds profile into a single root location (as far as folders go.)

Install the import export add-on. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/importexporttools/

Use the import export tools add-ons options to import an mbox from a folder and all sub folders and point it to the structure you have created. (The add-on has an entry on the tools menu)

It will import all valid MBOX files into Thunderbird and structure them as it finds them (although perhaps not quite where you had them)

One thing it will not do is place the folder into an IMAP structure where the IMAP account tries to synchronize and mess up the folders, because they do not exist on the server.
