Hotmail account reading with Thunderbird. Need to move my "Local Folders" to another drive in the computer.

from C:\Users\...\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\...\Mail\Local Folders

to S:\TBLF

Tried to just change the local directory and drag and drop the files, but that was a big fail.

Thx Ric

Copy ...Mail/Local Folders to the new location. Then change the Local Directory setting in the Local Folders account settings to point to the new location.
