I managed to lose a subfolder of the Inbox and have Mozbackup I can restore from there so I have exactly how. Thanks Andy

One of the folders that I created in my inbox disappeared. It is of course possible I accidentally deleted, but if I is not in the Recycle Bin. I have backed up with MozBackup Thunderbird is possible to restore the folder from there.

If  this can be done how do I find a particular folder and restore it.

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Andy

Is the folder located under "local folders" or under another account?
If another account, it's POP or IMAP?

In the event, it was under local folders.
Menu (Alt + H) help > troubleshooting information
Press the display folder.
(Everything here is Thunderbird outdoors. You could close in order to avoid the confusion of terms)
Open the mail folder.
Open the folder "local folders".
There should be a collection of files. for example, trash and trash.msf
If you have a folder that contains other files, you'll also see sdb files. So, as I have files in my trash, I have a folder of trash.sdb.

Of the three, the file without the extension is your mail. The msf file is an index which also contains tags. If you do not remove tags it will translate it recreated when you start Thunderbird without loss of data.

Open the PSD file if it seems will take you into that folder and it's under the folders.

So, to your original question. Yes you could get just this file since a mozbackup. Probably best to rename the file Zip and Use pvc a zip utility to get just this file of the archive, but in reality, I think that you will find the file is already in the folder (sometimes they just do not appear.)

If the file is still there, but just not to the poster. Go back to the original file that you opened from Thunderbird. (the one with abook.mab, your address book, inside) and delete the foldertree.json file (make sure that Thunderbird does not work). It will be recreated when you start Thunderbird, but startup will take just a bit more than normal.
