Hello,

I love Thunderbird very much, but I am beginning to have serious problems managing the configuration on different computers.

For some reason I have 3 different installations (in 2 different platform mac and linux) and I'd like to keep the configurations of these 3 installations identical, it mean's: 

    A) Same accounts configuration and not to have all the mails in all place ( it's not required because with IMAPs protocols I solved it) 
    B) Same labels
    C) Same signature
    D) Same filters configuration
    E) Same calendar configuration
    F) Same spam configuration 
    G) Some *.* configuration

I'd like to write things down once and not make copy and paste 3 times... and clearly I would not want 3 configurations destroyed, I would still like a safe tool

Someone has the same problem as me and they've solved it?

Thanks in advance

There is no "sync" of profiles. I have seen folk using web drives to do it, but they always appear to post in the support forums when their data gets lost in the process.
