This is the second time Thunderbird has "crashed" and lost ALL of my archived e-mail.
Gasp, I didn’t know they were still hiring Microsoft engineers.

10.0.1- latest version of T-Bird/Firefox. What version are running?
Been using Thunderbird since version 1.0. NEVER totally lost my email. Are you sure it didn’t lose the location of the email? Get a friendly computer geek to give you a hand. I bet your emails are still there.
Thunderbird email crashes on my wife 1-2 times a day. She has a lot of “archived” emails too. I’ve been pulling my hair out to figure this problem out.
I haven’t been able to send or reply to emails for a long time. So, had to go to server and get mail there, and now I can send email and reply. What a hassle for a non geek!
I’m told it makes no sense to continue with Thunderbird or Firefox for that matter and I should go to Windows.
FireFox has started to blow it seems now they’ve changed their patch cycle
Don’t use Thunderbird. For myself, I don’t like how they presume that directory servers support keep-alive connections.
My version 9.0.1 is fine.
If you don't back up your computer, then it must not be terribly important. If you use firefox, it's a good idea to back up your bookmarks as well. I have bookmarks that are over 20 years old, because I learned long ago that backups are important.
