After my pc crashed, I re-installed Thunderbird mail. My email folders for one of my email accounts has disappeared, as well as my address book. Both my personal address book and my collected addresses are gone for all three of my email accounts.

given pop mil and address books are stored on your hard disk, and you reinstalled Thunderbird after your PC crashed, I am not in the least surprised that data is missing.

How did you recover from this crash?>
