No Email Content In My Thunderbird
I'm using Mozilla Thunderbird running on my Ubuntu Linux for more than 2 year and its consolidated most of my important email included POP3 and IMAP. Today, when I was open one of my primary gmail account, I found the only subject, sender(basically top part) and without the email content. WTH? Please don't do this to me. I have no backup long time ago……
Google found a useful tips for me - Compacting the folder.
When you delete or move e-mails from a folder, Thunderbird and other e-mail programs simply hide them (and mark them as ready for physical deletion later on), and these hidden e-mails still actually remain in the folder. Even emptying the Trash does not physically delete them. These hidden e-mails are physically removed only when the folder is compacted. If you don't compact your mail folders periodically, they can grow very large, and erratic program behavior may occur.
Many e-mail users have never heard of compacting folders (not to be confused with compressing files). However, most e-mail programs use this approach to email storage and deletion. It improves performance by not requiring the email program to rewrite the entire Inbox or other folder every time you delete a single message. The difference is that most other email clients by default automatically compact the folder when a certain amount of space is wasted, whereas this has to be activated by the user in Thunderbird.
