Tips
Automatically sync all folders in Thunderbird
From here:
- open the Config Editor (Tools → Options → Advanced → General → Config Editor),
- change the
mail.server.default.check_all_folders_for_newsetting to true.
Troubleshoot
Sent folder not updated
Like a corruption of the TB database [1]. Go to ~/.thunderbird/*.default:
sqlite3 global-messages-db.sqlite vacuum
Mail not deleted
Deleting a mail seems a hard task in Thunderbird [2]:
- Set mail.imap.expunge_after_delete to true.
Missing mails, IMAP folder not synced
- Right click on IMAP folder, select Properties.
- In the General Information tab, click Repair Folder button.
