I am running:
$ thunderbird --version
Thunderbird 91.13.0

to download all the data in my gmail account via POP3, but
Thunderbird seems to be making assumptions about where to put your
data and I haven't found a way to tell it where to put it;
If all you want to do is make thunderbird put (most of) its data
elsewhere, you could change the profiles.ini file that exists in
~/.thunderbird. Mine has this:
[Install9238613B8C3D2579]
Default=/data/thunderbird
[Profile0]
Name=default
IsRelative=0
Path=/data/thunderbird
Default=1
[General]
StartWithLastProfile=1
Version=2
Except for the few files/directories that need to be in ~/.thunderbird,
all thunderbird data ends up in /data/thunderbird.
Of course, you should make sure the actual profile data is in the right
location before you run thunderbird like this.
