Thunderbird recently upgraded to 38.1.0 Using only extension Lightning 4.0.1.2 (which, by the way, I find very useful...)

Cannot move any received or sent mail to a local folder.

  • drag and drop does not work
  • right click mail to move mail to folder does not work

Error console shows, amongst others, following error messages :

Problem seem to be solved now. Apparently several .msf files were corrupted. After deleting them I can move any mail to any of my local folders in Thunderbird.
