I have thunderbird with a mish mash of folders etc. I just want it to copy my folders in OUTLOOK that I originally did a few years ago. But I stopped using Thunderbird for awhile and went back to OUTLOOK. Now the Thunderbird and Outlook folders are totally different.

I have uninstalled Thunderbird. Reinstalled it. Everytime I reinstall it it picks up where it left off with the original settings. I want a fresh empty thundirbird.

How do I do that?

If there is anything you want to keep in the old profile make sure you create a backup prior to deleting it.
