Thunderbird Problem on Lucid - Any Experts?

[clintin at linuxmail.org]

I spent some time on the Thunderbird Comunity Forums searching for an answer and it appears a lot of people have had this issue without resolution.

I really don't want to lose my inbox contents if I don't have too.

Heres what happened.  This morning, my MSN account decided to do a dump of all old email to Thunderbird, I interrupted it by pulling the network cable to stop the download, then proceeded to remove the "duplicate emails" (about 700 of them) and deleted them from deleted mail.  Now, I can't receive or move any email messages into my msn inbox, getting the much feared mail box full message, I have tried deleting and compacting to no avail.  I read on the Thunderbird Forum where people had gone as far as to remove their inbox and .msf files to no avail.

Looking in account at lts-lucidlynx:~/.thunderbird/(profile).default/Mail$ I see these folders:

drwxr-xr-x 4 account account 4096 2010-05-01 13:14 Local Folders
drwxr-xr-x 2 account account 4096 2011-05-06 16:00 pop3.live-1.com
drwxr-xr-x 3 account account 4096 2011-05-07 15:55 pop3.live.com
drwxr-xr-x 2 account account 4096 2010-08-17 06:53 smart mailboxes


 I don't know what pop3.live-1.com is all about but observing that it is dated yesterday.

I have a webmail account in the same copy of Thunderbird that I send and receive from and it is working fine.

I really need some help on this or recommendations on where to find help.

Thanks,

Clint
