    Hello Michael Scofield,

    As per your mention steps its working fine with small size (10 MB) mailbox but what about large size (1 GB) mailbox.

    Is there any solution?

    Hi Henry,

    Yes, the mention steps are useful for minor corrupted Thunderbird mailbox not for heavily corrupted or large size (1 GB) mailbox.

    For repairing large size or heavily damaged Thunderbird mailbox I personally recommended a third party tool.

    MBOX File Viewer Tool

    Hope this Tool will solve your query!

    Thanks

    Hello Eddie,

    You can recover your deleted emails by manual methods. Follow the below mention steps:

    1. Login into Mozilla Thunderbird, here is the demo mail is used to demonstrate how to retrieve deleted Mozilla email. I have deleted the demo mail from Inbox and it’s in Trash folder.

    2. Now I have deleted the demo mail from Trash folder as well.

    3. Go to the default location of Thunderbird mail client to start Run by pressing Win + R on keyboard and type %APPDATA%.

    You can also find location by following options > Account Settings > Server Settings > Local Directory

    4. By the above step, you will find the location, then open any folder (Inbox, Draft, Trash, Sent) with Notepad++.

    5. By going down you will found X-Mozilla-Status:(some number) which contains all the deleted emails which you have removed from Inbox or Trash folder. Edit the number 0009 to 0. Save and close Notepad++.

    6. Open Thunderbird and Refresh it. Now you can view same mail in Trash folder.

    Hope this information will help you!

    Thanks

    Hi,

    These manual steps work fine, but I have one more query about this. If I want to recover all deleted emails of up to date so what can I do?

    The manual method is a hectic task, get deleted Thunderbird emails one by one.

    Suggest any easy way.

    Thanks

    Hello,

    All manual methods take some time and it’s definitely a hectic task to get lost Thunderbird emails one by one. The mention steps work fine with a limited number of deleted emails if you are looking for an easy way so you must go for any third party tool. I would suggest one of the best tools which easily recovers MBOX files.

    MBOX Viewer Pro Tool

    Have a nice day!

    Thanks
