How can I batch file E-mails into folders instead of one at a time?
I save my subscription E-Mails in separate folders but I have been lax in filing and have over 700 to file. After sorting by sender is there a way to batch file then instead of one at a time? I am using Thunderbird 38.01

You use standard computer selection methods.
Select message 1, move up or down several message and hold the shift key while clicking on message 2 = this will select message 1 and 2 and all messages in between
Hold the control key while clicking random messages = this will select any message clicked on.
When you have the messages selected you can right click and select Move To or drag and drop. Move to is easier and more reliable when working with several messages.
I would not try and move all 700 messages in one move. Break it down in smaller batches.
