Thunderbird
WE recently changed email providers so I backed up thunderbird all folders to msf files plus files without extension (sbd?) Our email address on the old server is now dead, so I cannot create an account in Thunderbird with the old settings to retrieve the emails and email addresses. Ultimately I would like these emails on an excel spreadsheet but reckoned I would have to recreate them in thunderbird 1st. I am self taught and reasonably savvy but to me this is brain surgery. Is there any wizard out there who can steer me through this minefield please with an idiot-proof guide. Thanks

You can copy the file, exactly as you originally copied them, to Thunderbird's Local Folders and read them there. You can get to Local Folders by starting Thunderbird, click help>moretroubleshootinginformation, scroll down to Profile Folder, click 'Open Folder' and you will be in the profile. Open the Mail Folder and then you will see the Local Folder. Copy your files there, being sure not to overwrite any files with same name.
Thank you for your prompt reply. It worked. Thank you very much. I am really grateful.
You're very welcome.
