Go look into the directories where thunderbird actually keeps the mail. There will be a folder for each mail server you attach to. for example: $HOME/.thunderbird contains a strangely named directory such as m91q2nxl.default Inside there will be a directory named: Mail Which in turn will contain a directory like: pop.west.cox.net or whatever your mail server is called. The mail folders are files inside this directory. If the files are still big after deleting mail or emptying trash, right click the folder in Thunderbird and select "compress folder" in the popup dialog. This should mash it down to size.
