multiple locations for e-mails

Post by frank dale »

This is not about profiles in multiple locations. My profile should stay where it is. But how can I store e-mails in multiple locations? Every time I look for it, I get instructiosn about spreading the profile. No, this is not what I need.

We don't know what you need but Thunderbird stores all message data in the profile. What's your purpose in trying to store it in multiple locations?

Drive is full, I need to migrate about 1.5 GB of old messages.

You could archive/export those older messages that you won't need to access regularly.
