I have removed the drive from the computer that will not boot up. I hope to be able to transfer my "profile" to my new computer from that drive. I understand that I will need to have the same version of Thunderbird installed on my new computer in order to transfer my "profile".

I added .eml files from backup into Sent folder in Explorer. TBird client continues to show the messages that are the .eml files that already were in Sent folder in Explorer. TBird client shows none of the messages that are the .eml files that I added into Sent folder in Explorer.
