This month my ISP and main email provider ended email service and therefore my TB account for that IMAP email address is inactive. My TB has five other accounts and I would like to move email and folders to active accounts but it appears that I cannot. When I attempted to delete a folder in the inactive IMAP account but it seems that TB needs to connect to the ISP email server. How can I get TB to allow me to move the email and folders to another account?

removing the account will remove the folders. So how about copying.

I guess something is not clear. I am not trying to remove an account. I am trying to copy email or move the email to another account in TB. TB will not let me move or copy the email. Is there a work around?

Thanks.

How do I activate a inactive account?

Garry how about starting your own thread with a few details including what Inactive account means to you. There is no reason to bring this thread back to life after 2 months.
