Previous email data
Hi everyone,
I could really use some help with Mozilla Thunderbird.
I had my official email set up in Thunderbird using a POP3 connection. Before I updated Windows and reinstalled Thunderbird, I backed everything up — all the emails and settings.
Now, after reinstalling Thunderbird, I’m trying to get my old emails and account settings back, but I just can’t seem to make it work. I tried copying my old profile folder over the new one, but nothing shows up properly.
I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong or missing a step. Can someone please walk me through how to properly restore a POP3 email backup in Thunderbird? I really need to get my old emails back.
Thanks a lot in advance!

Picture of error.
Looking at the Error Console would likely help. You may have to add that IP to mail.allowed_unc_hosts
