My e-mail client of choice is Mozilla Thunderbird. By and large, it’s a good piece of software. Turns out, however:
Thunderbird has a nasty habit of once in a great while forgetting about the existence of a profile if it uses the default name. When this occurs you suddenly start up in the new account wizard and it looks like you lost everything. You haven’t. Its just lost track of your profile, which is probably intact.
So, I spent the better part of this morning recovering my e-mail settings and restoring access to my saved messages and whatnot. Who needs to do paying work, anyway?
