I have a system with two hard drives. I can boot either Vista or Win7. both hard drives are available when booting into either os. my Win 7 os crashed an I since replaced the drive and restored all programs including Thunderbird. I want retrieve the address book and emails from the Vista drive into my Win7 drive. How can I do this? You can email me some suggestions. My email address is [email protected] Thanks, DanM

This is a web forum, not a mailing list. Posting your email address to a public forum is a silly idea.

Wrt your problem, follow these instructions. I.e. create a new profile and copy the old one over it. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Moving_your_profile_folder_-_Thunderbird#Create_a_new_profile_and_copy_the_old_one_over_it
