Config file for Local Folders

Hi,

We have Thunderbird configured to local save our e-mail in a specific folder from our server. Ex: \\192.168.etc\thunderbirdmail\"user's folder"

Now I'll have to change the address and would be nice if I could just replace it from a file in Profile's config file. This way I could just change one file and just replace all others, otherwise I'll have to change all endpoints, one by one...

Is it possible? Where can I find the file to change and which file is that?

Thanks.

You should be able to do it on the profile files - %APPDATA%\Thunderbird\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default\ on prefs.js file look for "user_pref("mail.server.server1.directory", "here-is-what-you-need-to-change")"

I had a similar problem with getting Thunderbird to see my local folders/files. The solution was to go in at the OS level and change the properties on the folders/files in the "Local Folders" folder to NOT hidden and remove the read-only tags. Be sure to also change it on the sub-folders/files. Once I did this and restarted Thunderbird, the files and folders "magically" appeared in the tree at the left of Thunderbird under local folders.
