Hi Everyone,

I backed up a gmail account data and now i want to restore the data back to the gmail account. I download thunderbird and i used the importtool to import the mbox file to the local folder. I also added the gmail account i want to restore the files back to in thunderbird. Every time i copy the data and from the local folder(mbox file) to the gmail email account i want to restore, he stops with an error "connection to server failed" when the emails copied get to about 400. I dont know why.
