Hi everyone,
I have been using Mozilla Thunderbird for managing my emails and now I want to create a complete backup of my Thunderbird emails before moving to another computer. I have a large number of emails stored in different folders, along with attachments, so I want to make sure the folder structure and email data remain intact.
I know Thunderbird stores mailbox data locally, but I am looking for an easier way to back up the emails and save them in formats that can be accessed later.
Has anyone used a Thunderbird backup tool for this? I came across the SysTools Thunderbird Backup Tool, which supports backing up Thunderbird emails and exporting them into formats such as PST, MBOX, EML, MSG, and PDF.
I would appreciate recommendations from anyone who has tried it or has another reliable method for creating a Thunderbird email backup.
