Note: If you have used the Profile Manager on your source computer to store your Thunderbird profile folder in a custom location into a remote storage drive, create a new profile on your destination computer and set that profile to use the same location. Thunderbird's new installation will use the already existing data. The simple solution is to create a new trash folder after deleting the old corrupted one. Follow these steps to resolve the issue: If you are importing from another Thunderbird profile, and your source folder is larger than 2 GB, please use Import from another Thunderbird installation in step 1 and then select Choose a profile folder in step 2 of the import. The whole point of digitally signing a message is that the recipient will be able to verify that the digital signature is correct. A digital signature cannot be verified if the correspondent’s public key is unavailable. To ensure that your recipients will be able to verify your signature, it is best to always include your public key.If you already have a personal OpenPGP key pair from another software, choose Import an existing PGP key. Go to your file manager and open the Mail (or ImapMail) folder per your affected account type (POP or IMAP). That's it! The trash folder will be renewed, and you will be able to easily delete your mail messages.

Or, use the Thunderbird menu path Help > Troubleshooting information, then select Show Folder. Alternatively, you could try to use the Enigmail version 2.2.x migration Add-on for importing public keys into Thunderbird, even if you haven't used Enigmail before.

Try running Thunderbird in safe mode to temporarily disable any extensions/themes you added. This is not the same thing as windows safe mode. Thunderbird is funded by user donations. We don’t collect personal data, sell ads in your inbox, or secretly When they are installed, if you are on Windows, go to Extras/ Synchronisation settings (TBSync) or Edit/Synchronisation settings (TBSync) if on Linux

I used an advanced configuration with GnuPG to use a group of recipients and define the keys to be used. To do so, use Thunderbird 78 and search for the Enigmail Add-on. You will be offered to install version 2.2.x. Once installed, you can manually access the command "Migrate Enigmail Settings" from Thunderbird's top menu bar, in the Tools submenu.

All Mail: contains all the messages of your Gmail account, including sent and archived messages. Any messages that you see in the inbox will also appear in the [Gmail]/All Mail folder. No. At this time, Thunderbird uses its own copy of keys, and doesn't support synchronizing keys with GnuPG. The exception is the mechanism offered for smartcards, which could be used to use the personal keys managed by GnuPG. Use the ImportExportTools extension (it used to be called the mboximport extension) to import the folders from your old profile. Your folders are stored as mbox files. They are text files with the folders name and no file extension. For example, your inbox folder is "inbox.". You'll notice other files with the folders name and a .msf file extension. Ignore them, they don't have any messages. Thunderbird is an open source project, which means anyone can contribute ideas, designs, code, and time helping fellow users. The "inbox." file is a mbox file used to store the messages for a inbox folder. The Mail subdirectory should have subdirectories named after each accounts mail server, each of which has a "inbox." file. For example, if you use Gmail there should be a "inbox." file at Mail\pop.gmail.com . A 127.0.0.X directory occurs when you use a add-on or extension to support webmail. As a minimum you should have a Mail\Local Folders directory with a "inbox." file even if all of your accounts use a global inbox or you only use IMAP accounts.

When using the Enigmail migration tool to migrate public keys to Thunderbird, it should detect keys that have already been signed by your personal key, and automatically mark the corresponding keys as accepted keys, so you don't need to start from scratch. Mac: Go to Finder> Go, press and hold the Option key, and select Library. Open the Thunderbird folder, then open the Profiles folder.
