I am currently using Thunderbird 17.0.8, am am generally very satisfied with the service it provides.
I do have one issue.
My eMail server is RoadRunner/Spectrum.
When eMails are sent over from RoadRunner, there seems to be some option within Thunderbird that deletes those eMails from my RoadRunner 'Deleted Items' file within a certain number of days, like maybe 2 weeks. Is there a setting within Thunderbird that that time period can be changed.
It is possible that I do not fully understand the interface between these 2 services and there may be a different issue happening.
Can someone provide me with additional insight how this works.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Thunderbird settings
How is the account set up in Thunderbird, as POP or IMAP? Find out using menu path Tools->Account Settings->Server Settings->Server Type at the top right of the dialogue.

Thanks Dan for reply, I have two x bigponds accounts(email names) and one gmail.
I can only open one of the bigpond email accounts at this stage, got me beat.

Re: Thunderbird settings
OK, but that doesn't tell us how those accounts are set up.
