Vista - Help with change of Default in Mozilla Thunderbird

Good Golly · 08-12-2009

Is there someone out there who can help me to change my default in Mozilla Thunderbird. Presently it dumps any saved email texts into a file somewhere that is buried so deep in this computer that I can never find it! I did see it once, but have never been able to duplicate how I got there. The Geek Squad guys, who didn't know how to fix this suggested that I try this venue and that surely there would be someone out there who could help me out! Thanks in advance! Good Golly

to find the e mails

Quote:

Open the Windows Start menu

In the the "Start Search" box, type in %APPDATA% [1]

Click the "Roaming" item that appears on the menu.

In the Windows Explorer window that opens, choose Thunderbird → Profiles. Each folder in this folder is a profile on your computer.
