Can I have two email accounts' mail stored in one documents\mail folder (E:\Documents\Mail\Profile1 & E:\Documents\Mail\Profile2)?

I prefer to keep my documents OFF of my OS drive, so I don't like my mail on my OS drive either. Under Outlook Express, I could keep multiple mail accounts under one Documents\Mail directory without a problem (usually multiple mail\profile directories). But with Thunderbird, it won't let me; it'll let me put the first profile under E:\Documents\Mail\Profile1, but insists on putting any other mail accounts under C:\Users\Me\MailProfilesXXX (or something similar), which really bothers me (as well as makes it hard to back things up and manage them). Isn't there some way to get Thunderbird to let me have all of my email accounts under some central location that _I_ prefer and can manage?

Many Thanks!

Move your entire profile to your HDD.

You'll have to read up what "profile" means, because you seem to be using this word to mean "account".
