Hello All,
I had to reinstall Windows7 Professional on my laptop due to a problem with Skype. When Windows installed in the C:\Windows folder, it moved all of my previous folders and files into the C:\Windows.Old folder, so I do have access to them if I know where I need to go to get them. After the reinstall of Windows7, I reinstalled Thunderbird to get the program and default folders into the correct places. I then tried to copy all of what I thought was needed but I obviously I missed something. When I launch Thunderbird I get nothing in the left pane (where I would normally see my accounts, their inboxes, etc. and if I try to click on any of the links (like Read Messages, or View settings for this account nothing happens. If I click on the down arrow to the right of Get Mail I see a drop down with all of my email addresses.
Hopefully this a simple fix. I do not have the ability to execute the previous thunderbird install since it is under a different user profile for a different install of the os.
Any suggestions will be appreciated..

I have imported about 3000 emails and I am hoping that Thunderbird can review the emails and build a contact list from the senders/receivers. Is this possible?

I've tried opening a new account but I keep getting asked to enter details of the account I have with Monash that is still open, and the it opens. I wish to transfer all my emails (some of which are already in archived form) to a private account independent of Monash University so that when they cut me off, I still have all me emails. I may be able to switch everything to gmail but I like the fact that Thunderbird allows sorting an INBOX by sender, subject, and date, but gmail does not. Brlund

I'm using profiles, multiple profiles after getting new PCs . Each profile has multiple accounts ( same accounts) but different date ranges. I'm trying to organize emails by which pc was most in use during a particular timeframe. so I have 3 profiles and they seem to be working OK. But I only started the old ones up and saw that it was working but getting new mail - I don't want new mail in the old accounts/profiles. They're just there to give some historical help if I need old info. My new profile is getting new mail OK.
can I block the old thunderbird profiles from getting new mail? How? I would like to block them without having to "use"/open them so the mail collection process doesn't clutter them up with new mail.
