[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1580442, member: 234411"] Hi again [B]Sam[/B] - yep, a standard POP3 account removes the mail from the server and puts in on your computer, so not surprised that the mailboxes were empty when going to RR; there is an option for POP3 to retain a copy of your messages or conversion to an IMAP account which simply sends you a copy of your emails. Sorry about the TM restoration attempt - I cannot imagine the mailboxes not being there (unless excluded in TM's Preferences?) - not sure that I can take this much further - hopefully, a member will 'chime in' w/ some experience w/ Thunderbird (TB) on Mac OS - there is a Mozilla TB support community [URL="https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/products/thunderbird"]HERE[/URL] which you may have already checked out? But keep us up to date if a solution occurs. My last thought if not already done is to 'log off' your account and then sign back it - has helped me in several 'funky' situations - probably will do no good, but also no harm. Good luck! Dave :) [/QUOTE]
