ThunderbirdWith the arrival of the new version 3.1.1, Thunderbird is becoming more and more popular. I will teach you how to transfer Mozilla emails and settings to the whole process of Thunderbird.
Thunderbird currently uses an independent profile so that it does not interfere with Mozilla's use. To transfer emails and settings from Mozilla to Thunderbird, perform the following steps:
1. Start the new version of Thunderbird to create the default Thunderbird profile. When Account Manager appears, select cancel and exit the application.
2. First find the Mozilla profile (... \ Application Data \ Mozilla \ Profiles \ XXXXXXXX. slt) to be transferred ). Find the location of the newly created default Thunderbird profile folder. Copy all contents in the former directory, including subdirectories, to the latter directory.
3. Mozilla uses absolute paths in prefs. js, so it is not completed yet. Open the Thunderbird prefs. js file in the text editor. Search for the string... \ Mozilla \ Profiles \ XXXX. slt and replace it with... \ Thunderbird \ Profiles \ XXXX. slt. Save the file and start Thunderbird.
Note: This method transfers mail and account settings, Spam training information, and filters. Make sure that the POP account in Thunderbird is set to keep all emails on the server so that the previous emails will not be lost if you still want to use Mozilla Mail. In addition, because Thunderbird is only a mail client, there are a lot of unnecessary parameter settings and files in all the copied Mozilla profiles. You are solely responsible for the risks caused by the deletion of redundant files.
As described above, have you learned how to transfer Mozilla emails and settings to Thunderbird? I hope it will be useful to you.
