Hi

I have installed Thunderbird on a new computer, and successfully set up my email accounts on the new PC by using the Add Mail Account feature in Settings. This has successfully given me access to my In Boxes, Sent items etc. But has not included my Local Folders. I have tried to move these by copying the Local Folders from the old to the new PC and pasting the files into the Mail Folder under the new profile. However when I open Thunderbird there is nothing showing in the Local Folders. Can anyone help? Thank you

Could you do a screenshot of your Mail folder and the Local Folders folder? That may help.
