Hello: Over the years I've created different profiles on a number of different laptops/desktops. I've saved all the email into my local folders, and under the locals folder in each profile I created the same exact folders/sub folders each time. And so, for instance, every profile that I've created has a local folder, and under the local folder in each profile I have a sub-folder called "Shopping", and in the sub-folder "Shopping" I have additional nested folders that are called Amazon, Walgreens, Home Depot, Lowes, Walmart etc. Well I'm getting a new laptop tomorrow, and once again I'll be creating a new profile. In the new profile I'll be able to bring the local folders/sub-folders/nested folders from my last profile into the new profile that I will have created, but have no idea how to gather up all of the emails that I saved from all of the old profiles. I'm thinking that if I attempt to gather them all together, I won't be able to because all of those older emails are saved to the exact same sub-folders/nested folders that will exist once I bring them into the newest profile that I created. I figure that I might get a message from Thunderbird telling me that I can't bring those older sub-folders and nested folders into the account because at that point they already exist. So is there a way to recover all of those older emails that I have saved WITHOUT having to use the local folder/sub-folder/nested folder method? Just be able to retrieve all the old emails and sort everything out later on? Thank you in advance if you choose to respond to my post.
