Migrate Thunderbird Config from one Linux Computer to Another
While getting ready to do a presentation at Open Source 101 in a few days, I decided that it would be good to reinstall POP_os! on my System 76 laptop. After that I needed to install Thunderbird and migrate my Thunderbird profile to the newly installed laptop.
Due to the lack of good, accurate information about how to migrate Thunderbird profiles from one computer to another in Linux, I decided to write an article about what I discovered and share it. I have placed this document on my technical web site at Migrate Thunderbird Config from one Linux Computer to Another.
I hope it is helpful.
