Hi All, I recently had to reinstall Thunderbird and managed to migrate my emails and subfolders from the previous installation. However, I think I accidentally linked my email account twice. The first one has all the emails from my account unorganized in one big lump. The second one has all the subfolders, etc that are from the previous installation. Can I delete the first one without it deleting the second one? I'd hate to have to reinstall everything again.

Yes, thunderbird treats each account separately.
