I have been using Thunderbird for years and never had this issue. Over the last month it started re-downloading my All Mail constantly. The same messages over and over. I know it has to update and get the new messages but its downloading the same amount each day over and over. Not sure how to stop it or fix the situation. I tried updating to the latest version and the same problem exists.

Most do not subscribe to All Mail. It is a large, redundant folder the just slows things down File-Subscribe Subscribe to the folders you want to see and unsubscribe to the ones you don't.

My problem is I search through my ALL Mail Often for emails. Everything from my inbox gets archived into All mail after its taken care of. Then I go back and search for stuff almost hourly as needed. pricing etc. related to my biz.

I know its huge and redundant but this is a new problem that came out of nowhere... There must be something that set it off or a way to fix it.

What do you find in All Mail that you cannot find somewhere else? (I suspect that the key word here is "archive".)
