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.
