Thunderbird email folder in odrive folder

Hi @JeffL
now I am a bit lost - now I see 3 methods of syncing my emails from local comp to the cloud:
1- backup the folder to odrive:

  • the folder to by backed up up is out of the odrive folder on the comp
  • by default every 24h repeated
  • creates new file versions to avoid overwrite,
  • con: many versions of the file exist - not good for email files

2- move profile folder of Thunderbird to odrive folder on the comp

  • real time sync
  • overwrites files - no versioning
  • con: sync is real time - no way to do it i.e. every 4h or 24h

3- sync folder to odrive

  • actually the same as point 2 above but without moving Thunderbird folder into odrive folder on the comp
  • same pros and same cons (except no need to touch Thunderbird profile config)

Did I mix all up?
Idea was: mix point 1 with point 3 (because point 2 requires manual reconfiguration of Thunderbird profile - folder location on the comp - not difficult but)
