Hi.

Some of these, like your wlm import, I don't know the answer to. But I do know about the rules thing. I used to use rules in thunderbird, so the answer that is yes, it works. I have about that many folders, and back in the day, I let Thunderbird move the messages about. These days though, with gmail, I let gmail itself apply labels to mails and skip the inbox, so that all my email clients will have messages filtered into the proper places, and if I need to start fresh with a copy of thunderbird, which happens from time to time as it starts slowing down more and more over time, I get about a year's use out of a single copy before it becomes a real issue.

I like Thunderbird, but the sluggishness over time thing is a bother. I wish there was a better option. But I'm stuck with Thunderbird because when I group messages by conversation / thread, the layout is exactly what I want, very similar to Outlook Express, even better though. Outlook modern not express version, when it groups by thread /conversation, it shows the thread and I have to open it up to get the sender and such for the first message, it's just an extra step that I don't want to deal with. Mixed blessings.
