Under my thunderbird Local Folders there are three folders that are very large: Cache cache (Case Conflict) cache2

They total in size at 1.5GB - Is it ok to delete these folders, or at least the contents of them? I am trying to save space as much as possible.

I have tried clearing the cache from "Options -> Advanced -> Network & Disk Space -> Disk Space - Clear Now" and these folders stay at around 1.5GB.

Can you give the full path and filename of the files you're talking about?
