Hello everybody,
starting with TB now (old unix user).
to manage my emails I am presently using microsoft outlook in the
following way:
having all mails copied in local folders (which corresponds to a
xxx.pst file) and when the file reaches a certain size I simply rename
it an restart with empty local folders.
Whenever i want to check old mails i simply open the xxx.pst file that
i need and after found the data I want i can close it.
Is there any way i can manage similarly local folders with TB?
Thanks a lot for help.
Dony

Hi,
This is not the right forum for Thunderbird questions - Thunderbird isn't part of the OpenOffice.org suite of applications (which include Writer, Calc, Impress, Base, Draw, etc.).
For questions about Thunderbird, the best place to start is at the Mozillazine Knowledge Base:

I can tell you that Thunderbird mail is stored in a plain-text format that can be read using a simple text editor, but that wouldn't be my preferred method of accessing old messages. However, that's just a personal preference.
