I want to save an IMAP via POP3 account in Thunderbird, but it will not download old emails that are still on the server. How can I do this?
I start using Thunderbird to save and purge old e-mails from an account via POP3. This account is accessible by other users using IMAP on their computers and mobile phones.
I want to archive and purge old messages from the server using Thunderbird. But it will not download messages that apparently are marked as read on the server via IMAP.
POP mail accounts must be configured to "leave messages on server".
Check this box before use.
- Tools > account settings > server for the e-mail account settings
or
- menu icon > Options > account settings > server for the e-mail account settings
Select: 'leave messages on the server.
Optional: select: "during the more than xx days" this will remove something more that select the specified number of days "until I have delete" when you delete an email it will be deleted from the server.
Click Ok to save the settings.
POP mail accounts are only looking at the Inbox and download everything that has not been previously downloaded regardless of whether it has been read or not. They cannot access or download from any other folder on the server.
If you want to download the e-mail messages in other directories, you must move the emails in the Inbox to upload and it's may not be practical in your situation.
What you can do is to synchronize your IMAP folders to a copy downloaded to your IMAP e-mail account.
Then switch mode 'offline' to stop any additional synchronization synchronized files update.
MozBackup tool could now be used to save the profile synchronization created mbox files that contain emails.
You can also do the following to get a copy outside the IMAP e-mail account:
Create the same folders in the "local folders".
Then right click on the email and "copy to" and select local folders and the folder you need.
Put a copy in the local files means these e-mails are also on your computer and they are not influenced by what you do in the IMAP folder.
You need backup emails in these folders.

I updated level of windows 7 starter edition to professional but I want to go back to the starter. How do I go about it. I also want to know how can I get my product number and the activation number.
New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.
This is how the recovery partition is available for the most popular brands
For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device
For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device
For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward
For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo
For Samsung: Press the F4 key to the Samsung logo when you turn first.
For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.
Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

Hi Shandogar,
Your question of Windows is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for Windows Server on TechNet. Please post your question in the TechNet Windows Server forum.

I want to save a PDF file converted (via your clouds product) on my desk. I want a paper copy on my drive and not a link via Chrome of your cloud. How can I do this?
Hi WalterFranco,
When you convert your files using ExportPDF or Adobe PDF package, the files are automatically saved in your online account. But, you can log on to your account on https://cloud.acrobat.com/files, select the file that you want to store on your hard drive, and then click the link to download at the top of the list of files.
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,

Earlier, I set up Thunderbird to use my IMAP account. I wanted to convert a POP3 account, so I've added it to the list of accounts in Thunderbird. I copied all the folders on the IMAP account on the POP3 account and continued implementation of the POP3 account with certain filtering rules. Once I have seen that the e-mails were being downloaded, and things were working properly, I removed the mails from my Google IMAP account. This morning when I open Thunderbird, there is only one small file set upward in my POP3 account and nothing else. Filtering rules that I put in place are in place, but the emails and folders disappeared. I need help in recovering emails!
Okay, I think I got it today.
Of Thunderbird, create a new folder "Richclean" under the account "[email protected]".
Right-click on the account - new folderEC that it creates in the file system under mailmail.richclean - 1.?

I went to get in my "sent" box to check on an e-mail, but found that they had almost all been deleted. I have imap and pop3 accounts, but this has happened in both. Also happening in the Inbox. I am aware that I asked never to delete e-mails.
Thank you so much - I have now created a "local folder" (it did not exist previously) and I put in this folder all emails I need to keep. Thank you very much for your advice absolutely great. B June
