I know why. The default mail directory and your mail directory are not the same. The easy fix is to put your mail somewhere else (like /home/raju/mail then adjust the profile.ini file to not use a relative path and to use specifically that directory. The problem comes because thunderbird generates a random name for the directory where the mail sits. The directory structure should look something like this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/media/share/Mail$ ls -p abook.mab install.log prefs.js cert8.db key3.db reminderfox/ compatibility.ini Local Folders/ secmod.db compreg.dat localstore.rdf signature.txt cookies.txt Mail/ signature.txt~ downloads.rdf mailViews.dat signons.txt extensions/ mimeTypes.rdf training.dat extensions.cache News/ virtualFolders.dat extensions.ini panacea.dat xpti.dat extensions.rdf persdict.dat XUL.mfasl history.mab pgprules.xml xul.mfl Not all of the files are needed, but most of them are. Of course reminderfox/ is an extension that I use, so wouldn't likely be there for you. Notice there is a Mail folder inside the Mail directory. This is where the messages are really stored.
