Hello so I never had a problem with Thunderbird but when I recently looked at my disk space I saw that it uses more than 200 Gb, I tried to find a solution online but I never found anything. At this moment I am downloading the new update and it shows that it installs more than 250 gb already and its not even at the half of the bar.

Can someone please help me reduce this insane amount of memory it uses?
