I'm using Thunderbird since ages, currently at v24.3.0 and never had a 
problem, except sometimes getting duplicated messages from some rss feeds.

I have everything sorted and distributed in folders automagically with 
the help of filters. I am managing 7 or 8 mail accounts and several rss 
feeds. Gambas' folder has close to 30000 messages and never have had a 
problem. About eleven mail lists each in its own folder... Love it!

In such a case like mine, I recommend rsync'ing thunderbird database or 
the whole folder to an external storage. Too much data to loose ;-)

What is your setup, version, distro, etc?

Regards
