hi, I use one Thunderbird email on several computers, and the actions taken on Thunderbird does not synchronize on all of the computers. How can I fix this? It is very important that all actions taken on the email appears on all the computers using the email. By this I mean moving an email to a folder, actually getting email etc, etc.

Please give me a reply as soon as possible

Thank you in advance

You'd need to set up your account as an IMAP account on all computers. See this article for more information about IMAP. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/imap-synchronization
