Hi there,

I'm a long time Thunderbird for Desktop user and I'm thrilled that you work hard on a nice Mobile version.

My plan is to switch completely from Aqua Mail to Thunderbird for Mobile on Android.

One of the most important features for me is to make a Backup of my accounts "with all" Emails included. Im not a fan of backup all data to a online cloud; a backup direct on the mobile device will be very fine. Is this possible already? If yes how??... ' don;t find a solution for that :) PS: The account transfer from Desktop to Mobile works very well on TB 8 for Android.

And additional a simple function to bring/sync all Data with a safe connection (accounts & emails) to a new phone. Or will this be possible in the near future?

Thanks and best regards. MG
