Why Thuderbird is wrong in its email databse volume calcultation ?
When Thunderbird starts, it aks for a file compression to earn space but the space it displays (791 Mb), is quite 4 times the real space of my provider email database (211.8 Mb).
Many thanks

This is a known issue. It doesn't cause any harm though.
Specifically, you are getting many compact messages because of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1260698 ... and not because of anything you are doing wrong.
