Lack of Space

At Times when I try to move an e-Mail from the Inbox or Sent Items to a Storage Folder, I receive the Message that there is not enough Disk Space. There is plenty of Disk Space on this Computer. Is there a way to nominate the Amount of Space that Thunderbird uses?

If it's a quota warning, that comes from your service provider - it's not from Thunderbird and not related to your local computer.

Thanks Wayne. Don't think it is that. I have this happen relatively infrequently, so Yesterday, when it happened, I created a new Subfolder with a slightly different Name, say "Builder e-Mail" rather than "Builder". Transferred the e-Mail from the Inbox or Outbox without any Problems, then transferred the e-Mails already in the first Folder to the 2nd, deleted the first Folder and renamed the 2nd. All now in order, so still not sure why the e-Mails refuse to move across in the first Place.
