I erased a folder from Thunderbird. How can I restore it?
Somehow -- I don't know exactly how -- I deleted a folder from Thunderbird. When I search messages, individual messages from that folder show up. But the folder itself -- which was a large one with my "general email" in it -- is gone. How can I find and then restore this folder? I am on a Mac and have Time Machine. I can locate Thunderbird, but can't go in to it to find the particular folder. If I restore Thunderbird from a month ago, I will lose all the emails of that month. I don't want to do that. I want only the folder named "letters specific".

go to the help menu. Select troubleshooting information.
Select the show folder button for the profile.
locate the folder either in the mail or IMAP mail folders in finder. once located you will know where it is in Thunderbird.
