And there is no setting to change that time-limit. Now you have more control over your eMail. The only place where Gmail will auto-delete messages in 30-days is from Trash and Spam. Another perk is that it will not effect any of the other folders’ settings when you do it this way. If you haven't exited Thunderbird you can try using 'Ctrl+Z' to undo a action (repeat as needed).

So if you accidentally delete a message you can recover it from the Trash folder if it hasn't been emptied. This is great to be able to do with the Trash folder (I always seem to forget to empty it). The deleted message is also typically copied to the Trash folder. After you are done with your selection just click on the OK button The Inbox was the one I did not want deleting after a time, but for the Trash, I would prefer to have it empty after 30 or 60 days.

Move the remaining messages from the POP3 Inbox, to the IMAP Inbox.

Using the above extension, set the IMAP Inbox as the "Set original message folder(s) for next duplicate search", and run the "Remove duplicates" on the dummy POP3 Inbox.

Now grap the Thunderbird "Remove duplicates (Alternate)" extension from here: Remove duplicates (Alternate).

Start Thunderbird - notice you have all your emails back! Both the deleted and the undeleted ones are visible in the dummy POP3 account.

Copy over the Inbox file containing the deleted emails, overwriting the one from the dummy account, and delete the inbox.msf file that was also in that dummy account folder.

Double-check that this is indeed your freshly created dummy account and not some other valuable, but similarly named POP3 account.

Shut down Thunderbird, and navigate to /Profile/fault/Mail/hostname_of_your_server/.Create a POP3 account with the same credentials as the IMAP one, but make sure this account is unable to connect - don't enter your password.When it prompts, select to replace the target file. If the name of your backup profile folder is the same as your current profile, just copy the backup profile and paste it to the location of the existing profile.
