Tuesday Oct. 7, our ISP converted to a new e-mail program. I could NOT log in/on I called our ISP's help desk. The 'technician' could not help me log in to our Thunderbird POP 3 account. He had me, WITHOUT asking if I had essential - legal - medical-etc. e-mails in the IN BOX or in folders! He NEVER warned/cautioned all ?would? be lost - GONE.

I URGENTLY need to recover all TB POP3 IN BOX & e-mails in folders. I need to access legal messages today, if possible.

If Mozilla does not have a recovery program, what do I do? I am not seeking to recover ' deleted messages (unless his having me change from the POP3 account to a 'new' IMAP account is the same as ' "delete" '.

Any & all prompt responses APPRECIATED! Remain WELL & Be SAFE!

I'm on Windows 11, I've archived my gmails to a 3GB zip and extracted it to a local MBOX file. I want to sue Thunderbird only to be able to conveniently see these emails. I don't want any accounts, nor to connect Thunderbird to the internet - I juust want to see the gmails.

I've installed Thunderbird, and the import/export Tools NG add-on. It won't let me import to a unified folder, so I deleted the unified folder. I have no "local folders", so I can't right click on one and select import. I can't see how to make one either, and the help is of no help.

I wonder if somebody could tell me, without assuming knowledge I don't have, how to do this please.

Thanks Chris

Dear Thunderbird Support Team,

I am reaching out for assistance with opening .tmp files that originate from Mozilla Thunderbird. These files are approximately 650MB in size and contain copies of my text messages, which I would like to recover.

Unfortunately, I no longer have Mozilla Thunderbird installed, and the .tmp files do not open in any other text editor. I would appreciate any guidance or help in retrieving the contents of these files, as it is crucial for me to access these messages.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi. I have recently compressed thunderbird which has wiped two servers. I have three pop accounts on thunderbird. I have a functioning email service on the machine that I compressed but another machine and my smartphone have no emails. I have checked on the servers to confirm they have not archived or trashed my emails but everything is gone. How can I reload the servers from my only good copy?
