My android phone has access to a USB pen-drive on which I placed a backup copy of all my TB folders. Can I use TB for android locally to read these emails? How? Thank you.

Hi Dominique,

The thing is, Thunderbird for Android currently does not handle file-based mail, whether it's mbox, maildir, pst, eml etc. So it's currently not possible.
