Hi there,

I saved my Thunderbird emails (downloaded via POP) onto an external hard drive, folders only. I did not save the profile portion but I know what it is as I have a screenshot of it. Can it be used in my Thunderbird Mail profile that I currently have?

Is there a way to import these POP folders from the external drive onto my iMac (Ventura)? There are almost 95K emails to import.

Can steps be provided so that I can access these emails, please? I have a new Thunderbird profile that I can use.

Thank you.

Lynn

If you have the folders, you should be okay by doing this: - exit thunderbird - locate the Mail\Local Folder folder in the active profile, - copy the folders there. - restart thunderbird
