Thunderbird crashed while I was in the middle of writing a detailed email (about 90 minutes in). Nothing appears in the draft folder. Are the breadcrumbs one can look for to located at least the text of the message? If so how would you recommend one go about the process.

You might look in the system temp folder at a left over tmp file from around the same time and date (open them in notepad) but that is about it.
