Hi there. First, thanks for your time. Next, I'm a newbie with Thunderbird (and a bit of an IT weakling). Have gradually been setting it up to work for me. I have multiple email addresses, folders and subfolders. About half my emails have attachments. I've managed to backup the Profile info by exporting a copy of the folder onto an external HDD. Now I want to backup all my emails including folders, subfolders and attachments. I have managed to download ImportExportToolsNG as an add-on.
1. I've read somewhere that ImportExport doesn't export attachments?
2. Which is the best ImportExport option for me to use? I don't understand the difference between the different options in the menu (eg, Export All Folders, vs Export All Folders with Structure, vs Backup). I've read somewhere that some of these options don't link attachments to their emails or don't copy the full email message - as you can see I don't really understand what I'm reading. I would like to be able to double check what I have in the exported copied folders. And I want to be able to restore all emails, their attachments and settings if my Thunderbird crashes.
3. I do use Acronis True Image 2016 to backup my PC onto external HDD but I don't know how to check and see if my emails are on there. If they are, will I be able to restore my Thunderbird emails and settings if for some reason they crash? TIA.
