You do not want to do that just in case something goes wrong. I say use 'Copy to' because when you use 'Move to' it moves it/ deletes it from imap account.

  • Right click on those emails and select 'Copy to' and choose a suitable folder in 'Local Folders' mail account.
  • Select/highlight batches of email in the imap Inbox.
  • Create some new folders in 'Local Folders' mail account.
  • You need to get 'Copies' of emails into 'Local Folders' mail account.

    I advise you use offline mode to do all the copying because it stops folders doing auto synchronising whilst you are trying to use the imap folder a lot to get copies into Local Folders. When you are in Offline mode, the 'two blue screen icon located bottom left in Status bar will turn into a two black screen icon (assuming you are still using version 68*).

  • Select 'Work offline once download and /or synchronisation is complete'.
  • Menu app icon > File > Offline > Download/sync now.
  • #Thunderbird hide folders full

    Now make sure you really do have full copies of emails and go into Offline mode

  • Make sure all the folders and subfolder checkboxes are selected.
  • Select checkbox 'Keep messages in all folders for this account on this computer'.
  • In Account Settings > Synchronisation & Storage for that imap account If the account id was 1 you'd add ,account1 to that setting.Check: Have you set up Thunderbird to synchronise all the imap folder to download full copies? You can edit it by double clicking on the value.
  • Edit to add the local folders account.
  • Usually the same id is used for both the server and the account. Find a setting that looks like 1.server that is set to server1.
  • Enter server1 (replace the 1 with the actual id you found) in the edit field in the Config editor.
  • You want one that has just Local Folders in the right column (value) and looks like either 1.hostname or 1.name in the left column (preference name).
  • Search for Local Folders in the edit field in the Config editor.
  • It should know about three (two POP accounts and one local folders account). For example if you have two POP accounts and they're set to account4,account3, Thunderbird only knows about two accounts. Type in the edit field in the Config editor and see how many account ids it lists.

    If they are still missing something probably deleted its account from the list of known accounts in the setting. If your local folders are missing after upgrading Thunderbird (and you didn't deliberately get rid of them) set the advanced folder view to All Folders using View -> Folders -> All. If you enable auto-save of drafts, it's less likely to interfere with your typing if you store them in Local Folders. You could use offline folders instead, but that can cause complications and you would need to switch Thunderbird to working offline to access those folders. Local Folders provides a convenient place to store messages locally when desired.

    Conversely, if you use an IMAP e-mail account, mail is stored "remotely" (on the server) rather than being downloaded and stored "locally" (on your own computer).If you reconfigure several profiles to use a common directory for Local Folders outside of the profile, it's much easier for those users to share mail messages.

  • You can use Local Folders as a place to archive old messages, so that the actively used mail folders are smaller and less cluttered.
  • Sent newsgroups messages are saved in Local Folders by default.
  • That folder is also used to send a message in the background if you set ndInBackground true.
  • When you compose a message and save it to be sent later ("File -> Send Later"), it is saved in the Unsent Messages folder in Local Folders.
  • If you configure a POP account to use a Global Inbox, the new messages are downloaded into a Inbox folder in Local Folders, and the POP accounts folders are hidden in the folder pane.
