[mdlug] Missing account in Thunderbird

[Carl T. Miller]

In ~/.thunderbird/ each profile is stored in a subfolder
with a random name, usually ending with ".default"
(e.g., "abcd1234.default").

If you're having trouble locating the profile folder, you
can open Thunderbird and go to Help > Troubleshooting
Information. On that page, there's a section called
"Profile Folder" with a button to open the current
profile directory.

Muchas gratias to claude.ai.
