Trying to "forward as attachment" 5.5k emails, but it doesn't appear to operate when I click "send".

Hi! I'm trying to backup 5.5k emails using a method that does not require POP3 or IMAP enabling on a work email address. "Forward as attachment" seems like a perfectly fine way to do this, however, Thunderbird doesn't seem to operate when I click "send". It doesn't freeze or hang... it just... doesn't operate. Not really sure what to do, here.

Are you trying to send all 5500 email messages at once? i.e. all attached to the same forward?

If not all at once, how many? One at a time?
