Greetings,

While preparing the backup of my profile folder, I have realized that there are several folders in my IMAP profile subfolder ( C:\Users\…\Thunderbird\Profiles\2mr7tdtg.default\ImapMail ) that exist in that folder and I don't understand what they do there. The "several folders" that I'm talking about are named after IMAP servers that I've used in the past.

I believe, judging from the last modification timestamps of a few of them, that these folders match old accounts that I have deleted and, for some accounts, recreated for various reasons. I have 23 folders in the ImapMail folder while only having 5 current accounts in Thunderbird.

Needless to say, those extra folders take up much space on my disk. I'd like to remove them as I don't understand why these folders and their contents aren't deleted when the account is removed from Thunderbird.

Question: how do I know which folder is still active and which account it is linked to? Put differently, how do I know which folder holds the messages and data of a specific e-mail account?

Thank you.

Open Account Settings. Select 'Server Settings' for an account in the left pane.

The 'Local Directory' setting identifies the corresponding folder for the account.

Repeat that for your other accounts.
