Open Thunderbird with no tabs open
In trying to move several THOUSAND emails from one email account (which will be shut off) to another, after we selected all emails in the olde account, we inadvertently we must have asked Thunderbird to open all of those emails. I have manually tried to close these tabs (either using the x in each tab, or Ctrl-W). Nonetheless, Thunderbird is slow as molasses with this crazy number of tabs open. Is there a way to reset Thunderbird without any of these tabs open, just the main mail window?

Right click is your friend when using Thunderbird. Right click one tab and select Close other tabs.
This person has so many tabs open now (over 8000) that the right click method does not seem to work. Perhaps it will in several hours, but its giving me no sign of responsiveness. So is there a way to open Thunderbird with just the main window tab and no others?
