I'm investigating.is it not the MessageID field of the email?I am not sure. Beagle seems to parse Inbox.msf files to find IDs.I looked around but could not find any info on the format of thunderbird's email uri FWIW, Im 99% sure the MessageID email field is used in the uri because looking at the mbox file its the only value unique for an email and the combination of folder + messageID is globally unique.It is possible but I don't find id...Im also sure the msf files are indexes to the mbox file and contain message Ids in themIndexed to the mbox file? Beagle seems to use these files: Mork files. But they are really awful: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mork_(file_format) I hope there is code somewhere to parse those files... Currently I am waiting Beagle for indexing Thunderbird's emails and then know what URIs look like.okay great!note it seems only the latest versions of thunderbird support the email uri (I get "email is not a registered protocol" if I use email:///) so for now use the folder name (ie Inbox) + MessageId as the uri$ thunderbird "mailbox:///home/laurent/.mozilla-thunderbird/idk93817.default/Mail/Local Folders/Inbox;number=1" But number is?Btw thunderbird handler does not index vfolders. thunderbird stores the email for a vfolder in the corresponding vfolder mbox and *not* the Inbox file. Your code only looks for Inbox and Sent but it should look for all files without an extension in that folder to pick them up (and they can be created or deleted too!)I don't understand. Thunderbird doesn't store all emails in Inbox and Sent?Depends. If you right click on local folders and create a new folder and then apply filter rules to move matching incoming mails to them then no it wont store them in Inbox. EG I have a folder called tracker in Local Folders and all mails that contain tracker in the subject line are stored there. These are stored in the file "Local Folders/tracker" and not in Inbox. All the mbox files in that directory have no extension so it should be possible to pick them up. (and ignore default ones like Drafts and Unsent etc)
So I propose a patch to recursively explore directories in Thunderbird's mail folders, based on mork files (*.msf files) without extensions. Laurent.
