It appears my e-mail downloads are using up 10 GB. What can be done? I know I have far too many e-mails. Could you tell me how to transfer or delete these email so that they are not downloading each time I open up my e-mail account. Midori Tani (559) 284-6167

If you have an IMAP mail account, you do not have to download the whole file each time, instead select to only synchronize either xx emails or days. See info here:

If you have a gmail mail account, do not subscribe to see the 'All Mail' folder as it is gmails arhive of all of your emails, so that folder will double the size of your download. See info on unsubscribing and removing All Mail folder from Thunderbird.
