Hello,

I am doing a backup of my files from my laptop to proceed with re imaging my the entire system. However, I would like to know how I would go about saving all my emails that are currently in Mozilla Thunderbird. Will you kindly show me the way?

Thanks.

Peter

backup your Thunderbird profile. To locate your profile,
you can read this:

and if you're using windows, then you must read this first:

that explained in Peter's links above)
