Has the 2GB maximum file/folder size for the Thunderbird Profile Export/Import function been increased? I just tried an Export/Import on a profile, and it was a little larger than 2GB. It appeared to work fine. Just curious.

Hi David, Thanks for the response. I sort of assumed that, when it seemed to have worked.

The 2GB was only a guideline. We're pleased your import went well.
