I had this problem... cept I imported all my messages from a mozilla (which I used in FC2) backup. Then after I exited Thunderbird and came back in, all of my messages were gone. I simply copied the stuff from my mozilla mail folder into the appropriate thunderbird folder and viola! It worked, I didnt even lose the old mail that I d/led with thunderbird. -Matt On Sat, 13 Nov 2004 20:54:33 -0500, Robert L Cochran <cochranb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Dick Roth wrote: > > > Having thankfully followed some very good suggestions by others > > regarding my plight with Evo crashes, I am now using Thunderbird, > > which hasn't crashed once.
