My Thunderbird was not finding messages that I could see were there.
I followed the advice here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/rebuilding-global-database.
I deleted the (large) global-messages-db.sqlite (I have been using Thunderbird for a long time - and I am monthly contributor).
The rebuild gets to a certain point and then stops (as indicated by Tools Activity Manager). Always at the same point. I guess there is a bad message in there somewhere. But now I am worse off than before.
I tried rebuilding several times. I have also compacted the account folders of the account that stopped and then tried rebuilding.
I have many years of messages in there and I need a functioning search. What can I do?
