Re: SOLVED: Thunderbird can't read Mail

Hi Mickey,
Just my 2 cents worth, which may or may not help. As I understand the way Thunderbird works, the mail files in your profile directory that Thunderbird uses are defined in the Local directory text box in the Message Storage section at the bottom of your Sever Settings in your Account Definition, which unfortunately as far as I am aware doesn't support multiple directories. You should be able to set up a new account definition for your mail isp to use the second mail directory and configure that account definition to not retrieve emails from your ISP's server, which will then provide you with access to those mails from that account definition down the left hand side, and it should also never fetch any new emails. This is similar to what I did when I changed distributions and just reused the thunderbird mail directory, and what I did when I configured my Thunderbird to be able to access my wife's mail directory which is on the same pc.

regards,
Steve

  did you try under edit-account settings , comcast account, click on
server settings. down at the bottom, point it to you mail.comcast.net folder

Under accountsettings in Server setting I changed it to read the "mail.comcast.net" and now I can read
the old Emails .

Why does it not display both Email files on the left column of the Thunderbird Browser ?

I guess I will just delete what few emails i have in ;

"mail.comcast-1.net" and use the "mail.comcast.net"

Thanks guys for your Help.
