    Nevermind :) Found the backups in /var/lib/gdm3
    Didn't realize that's where GDM would put them.

A GDM script can't put ~/.thunderbird.backup in /var/lib/gdm3, since the
path ~/ belongs to /home/user_account, resp. /root. You must have done
something wrong.




sid:/var/lib/gdm3#
ls -a . .dbus .gconf.path .pulse .. .gconf gschemas.compiled .pulse-cookie .cache .gconfd .ICEauthority Seat1 .config .gconf.mandatory .local thunderbird.backup

sid:/var/lib/gdm3#


As you can see, the back-up is there. And I just checked again by exiting the WM and it's the correct date/time

When I added that line to the Default script I assumed they would go into my home dir. I dunno.
