I had 3 email addresses on Thunderbird, all gmail addresses. I then deleted one of them. Now sometimes emails that are sent to me end up in the deleted email box in gmail. Sometimes when I click 'reply' the deleted email address comes up as the one I am sending from. It's all gone haywire! I am thinking that I should cancel delete the accounts I have on Thunderbird and start all over again, but worried I will then loose my emails. Not sure what to do. Can anyone help please? Joanna
