This is not the problem. For example, if I create a new account it is stored in ~/.mozilla-thunderbird/bafaowsk.default/Mail/Local Folders-1 . So it is able to recognize that I am using .mozilla-thunderbird. However it is not recognizing my other folders. For example, I currently have $ls -al ~/.mozilla-thunderbird/bafaowsk.default/Mail/ total 28 drwxr-xr-x 7 rajulocal rajulocal 4096 2007-04-02 17:06 ./ drwx------ 7 rajulocal rajulocal 4096 2007-04-02 17:05 ../ drwxr-xr-x 7 rajulocal rajulocal 4096 2007-04-02 17:04 kusumanchi.mae.cornell.edu/ drwxr-xr-x 45 rajulocal rajulocal 4096 2006-09-12 22:45 Local Folders/ drwxr-xr-x 4 rajulocal rajulocal 4096 2005-06-08 16:28 News & Blogs/ drwxr-xr-x 3 rajulocal rajulocal 4096 2006-09-12 22:45 News & Blogs-1/ drwxr-xr-x 8 rajulocal rajulocal 4096 2006-09-12 22:45 pop.gmail.com/ all these are different different accounts.
