OK ... this was my own fault (owning up) I took backup with Mozback up .. but it did not backup my filed/stored mail. So after a clean install of OS when I retored profile email OK and inbox but none of my filed mails form Local folders. However previously they were on another HDD ... so I do have access to them all.

i.e they are in: E:\Users\Rick-old\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\20619x3p.default\Mail there are 3 folders in that Mail folder all containing what appear to be valid mails.

My current new Thunderbird install mail folders are in: C:\Users\Rick\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\4ttn729w.default\Mail


Hope you can help


Can I just move them over, or is there a correct way to do it to ensure I don't mess up folder structure or mail dates.

C:\Users\Rick\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\4ttn729w.default\Mail\Local Folders

is the home of Local Folders

copying one lot over the other with Thunderbird closed will replace one with the other.
