Claire simply does have that many mail folders.  As part of her
executive administrator role her Thunderbird is configured to see other
people's mail, not just her own.  Additionally, some of those other
accounts have filing/foldering systems that would help to account for
the 1000 .msf files, e.g. one mail folder per sending company.

[FAOD, I filed the bug on Claire's behalf (from her laptop) and I'm
 replying because I know she's unlikely to pay much attention to LP bug
 mail.]
