I am running Thunderbird 91.3 which repeatedly pops up a message saying it wants to compact my folders. I do not see any option either in Preferences or in Account Settings for disabling this feature, as there was in previous versions. How can I stop TB from compacting my folders? Thanks.

In Preferences search for "compact".

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/compacting-folders now explains Compact and why it is important. It also indicates you probably really don't want to disable it.
