how do I get recovered emails that I accidently deleted back into Thuderbird?

I accidentally deleted thousands of emails, thinking I was only deleting them from the server. I sued "recuva" to recover most of them to a folder. Now I want to get them back into Thunderbird so I can search them. But if I just copy-paste them into the right folder on my computer, they show up in Thunderbird as folders, not as email messages. What is the right way to import them from a folder, not another email client?

what is recuva? If it is the file recovery tool I googled, I seriously doubt it has recovered your mail. It might have recovered a whole heap of Windows search files (WDSEML). But you mail is not stored in individual files by Thunderbird to be recovered.

A folder where? in the email server, in Thunderbird, in the file system or what.

Have the folders been compacted in Thunderbird? Try this add-on to recover you mail. https://nic-nac-project.org/~kaosmos/index-en.html#recDelMsg
