What puzzles me most is the lack of a delete folder. I use TBird too, under several user names, and each one has a delete folder which was there automatically from the first set up. Her version has a trash folder but no delete folder.The emails wherever they are should be stored as “flat text” / ASCII text. So if you know phrases or unusual words in the email, recipient’s email addresses, etc., you could search for them with “grep” - the standard unix-toolkit pattern-matcher. As you don’t know where to look, you might fire it up through “find” with something like find . -type f -exec grep ‘contraoscillating’ {} \;On 21 Mar 2023, at 13:05, Neil <barnaby@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: My wife uses thunderbird for her emails. She seems to have lost any trace of an email she sent recently.It is not showing in the sent folder. I have also noted that she has a trash folder but no deleted folder. I am wondering what happens to any emails that she deletes. Any suggestions please?
