My desktop PC powered down without warning. When I rebooted and tried to use Thunderbird it prompted for a new account but I have 2 email accounts set up on the mail tool and neither is displaying the foldrs or emails. i tried restarting and shutting down and rebooting with no change. At the moment the only i have emails is on the web but tend to use the mail tool finding it more flexible. Can you help in finding how to recapture my accounts and emails?
