Right now all of my email is accumulating on my C:/ drive. I have a second internal hard drive practically empty that I would like to install and use primarily for Thunderbird, but I can't seem to move my current email data to the F:/ drive without breaking the existing Tb account. How can I get Thunderbird over to the F:/ drive permanently: to download the new messages there, and to store them there? Any help? Thanks.

You have moved profiles.ini too. That needs to stay in the default location.

The section titled "Restoring to a different location" gives one way to do this. Personally I'd copy the whole thing over to the new drive then edit the original profiles.ini file.

Move your profile over to f:\

Thunderbird seems to WANT to only look in one place for my profile. When I moved the profiles (I have three) over to F:/, all that happened was that Thunderbird decided that I must be a new user and it asked me if I wanted to create a new email address? What am I doing wrong?

THANK YOU! Works great. Will free up lots of space and, hopefully, make C:/ more efficient. Appreciate your help.
