I have a primary XP profile and associated mailboxes/accounts. I am dual-booting to Windows 7 and want to share only that XP profile so that all of my mail appears (and is synchronized) in the Thunderbird browser regardless of which OS I boot to. This seems as simple as pointing the Win 7 mail account local profile to the original XP profile, but that doesn't work. And - please - don't point this question to the response regarding sharing profiles between windows and Linux. That thread hasn't helped. Thanks in advance

Well I have no idea hat thread your talking about, but regardless the process is always the same, use the profile manager to create a new profile and point the profile manager to the profile you wish to use.
