email files
Is it possible to copy Tunderbird email files to the computer's documents. Our server uses POP, so they can only be accessed on my PC and not other devices. Thanx.

Select a set of messages then Ctrl+S to save them as eml files. Eml files can be opened in any mail app, or imported to a subfolder of Local Folders in TB by drag and drop from File Explorer.
Thank you, but I need a little more help since I am not familiar with "Eml" or "TB." I think you are saying to select emails to transfer and then Ctrl+S. Then what? And will a copy of the emails move or will that happen and the emails will be deleted from Thunderbird page?
Select one message, then Ctrl+S to save it as a file with an .eml extension, to the directory of your choice. Try it, the message remains in TB.
Almost there. How do I "save it as a file with an .eml extension"? I'm on a steep learning curve, and you have been very helpful.
