I have about twenty mailboxes which are assigned to three different profiles, different by type of activity. I would have a mailbox (account) that I would like to have in all profiles because it is transversal. This is also because for over a year I have uninstalled ProfileSwitcher which was not working well for me. It's possible? And if so, how? Thank you. Stefano

I use Thunderbird 68.10.0 (64 bit) on the MacBook Pro with El Captain

If the account is IMAP, it can be added to several computers, phones etc., and multiple profiles, and the mail will be synced across all devices or profiles.

The updated Profile Switcher (space between the words) works fine here in TB 68. An alternative, e.g. for TB 78, is to manage profiles from Help/Troubleshooting, about:profiles.
