thunderbird access from command line (linux)
for those of you that have ever needed to access an email stored in thundirbird from the command line while away from your machine :
ssh to your machine
go to your home folder –> cd .thunderbird
inside of .thunderbird you should see a folder with a .default extention.
cd into this folder
cd to “Mail”
at this point you should have a folder listing of all your accounts plus your local account.
cd to the account you have to find the email from
now just vi “Inbox”
done
Ten years later, these instructions still apply. Thanks 🙂
