Thunderbird is installed at office notebook with custom profile location. All messages are stored removable SSD disk.

1. I installed Thunderbird at home notebook 2. didn't generate new account 3. attached SSD to notebook 4. modified "profiles.ini" file as below : 

   [General]
   StartWithLastProfile=1
   
   [Profile0]
   Name=Default
   IsRelative=0
   Path=Z:\Mailbox\Thunderbird\Profiles\myProfile.default
   Default=1

5. Run Thunderbird

But, Thunderbird didn't load the custom profile. It tried to load default profile. Excactly saying, It tried to generate new mail account.

How can I share mail within removable SSD at two PC ?
