Hello, Apparently, when changing the name of the .thunderbird folder, to hide it, Thunderbird 140.3.0esr (64 bits) continues to exhibit messages. I do not find where they are located. Any idea? Thanks SG

Xubuntu (Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS) Thunderbird 140.3.0esr (64 bits) Firefox 128.12.0esr (64 bits) Zotero version 7.0.11 (64-bit) LibreOffice 24.2.5.2 (X86_64)
