Hi Wishing you are doing Great. Is there an option to Repair only that email instead of Repairing the whole inbox. Thunderbird is connected to Gmail which is the source email. Observed, if I deleted the corrupted email in Thunderbird this also gets deleted in my Gmail inbox and vice versa. Seems Thunderbird still retaining the Gmail email ID when deleting so is it possible to bring down only that email using that source inbox email id.

That is what the repair function does.

You might try copying the mail to another folder. I think that process involves check the mail against the server copy, or saving it as a file.
