Feb 11, 2013  Why won't Thunderbird download my incoming email? Submitted: 5 years ago. Category: Email. Ask Your Own Email Question. Share this conversation. Answered in 38 minutes by: 2/11/2013. I recently set up an new thunderbird account with 4 email.

Do not archive mail in the Inbox or Sent Items. Create your own user defined folders and move the messages you wish to save to them. Empty Deleted Items folder daily. Although dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2GB, I recommend about a 300MB max for less chance of corruption.

After you are done, follow up by compacting your folders manually while working *offline* and do it often.
