@Beuvusiey94 We’re almost there 😉

When you see the screen with the two options The TV-Box turns off automatically / The TV-Box does not turn off you will see that in the banner at the top there is “Deactivation behavior” in blue, but also “Standby state” in white.

One arrow up, one arrow right + ok and you are in the right place to change the sleep behavior config.

Hi @Beuvusiey94

I will answer no… and yes 😉 I will try to explain.

Email is not stored as files, so you cannot simply copy a file structure from a server to a PC to have a copy of your emails.

Thunderbird works by putting its data in a profiles folder (which you can choose or move) which contains your information (config and other) in specific files and folders.

Specifically there is a folder for each email address you configure as well as a folder for emails you keep locally.

Each of these folders contains the entire structure of the mailbox with, at the end of the structure, a file grouping the messages from each email folder with the messages inside. So you have several messages in a file.

It seems complicated, but in fact what you have to remember is that you will not have one.eml file per message but a file structure containing all of your mail. That’s why I answered “no”.

On the other hand, you can select all the data contained in a profile, copy them to another machine and point the Thunderbird of this other machine at this copy and it will resume from there without problem. That’s why I also answered “yes”. Likewise, you can make backups of profile data on another disk without problem.

In your case you want to “disconnect” from three Bluewin addresses while keeping emails on the PC.

You will have to add the three addresses to Thunderbird in IMAP to access the contents of the boxes on the server.

Then you create a subfolder by email address in Thunderbird’s “Local Folders” and you copy (or move) the contents of each mailbox into the corresponding subfolder (including the folders and their contents).

For the reception and sending files, you will do the manipulation last, just before stopping the use of addresses. You can then remove them from Thunderbird, all of the mail archives will then be locally on the PC.

Do some testing with Thunderbird before planning your migration, it’s a lot simpler than it looks.

The day you switch to another provider, you simply add the address to Thunderbird and you will have your normal mail and archives available simultaneously.
