When more than one person is using a computer, it is normal basic practise to create 'User Accounts' on the computer for reasons of Privacy.
'User Accounts' can be given passwords'. Each person using the computer would have their own 'User Account'.
After booting up computer, you would need to logon to your 'User Account' using your password. This would present you with your desktop. You then launch Thunderbird to see your mail accounts and emails.
Thunderbird would then store all emails in the appdata folders within your 'User Account'. No one would see emails unless they know your 'User Account' password or they have special Admin rights.
Log out of your 'User Account' when away from the computer.
In Thunderbird: There is also a means of setting a 'Master Password' to stop people from seeing your stored passwords. This 'Master Password' does not hide emails, it hides stored passwords. See info:
