Copy Email Folder

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

by nyback on Sept. 17, 2025 ·

If doing parallell multiple copying, the log will mix up the targets. This is an example, but seen several times. In this example on folder is in Chinese and the log also misses using utf-8 to render the Chinese folder name correctly in one instance but not the other places.

In the first entries you can see copies started from
"/tax audit legal insurance" to "/All IJI Emails/tax audit legal insurance"
then from
"/Training" to "/All IJI Emails/Training"
Then from (what should have in the first word been chinese)
"/&Zwh+01QOdoSJgVkEdAZ2hGWHTvY-" to "/All IJI Emails/月结后的要处理的文件"

Then a copy is started between "/Sent Items" to "/All IJI Emails/Sent Items"

Then if you check the last line in the log, it has mixed up the source and the target and says:
"Copying Emails Finished - Copied from: /Sent Items to /All IJI Emails/月结后的要处理的文件 finished."

Here it has mixed up one copy source with another copy target. There was never a copy started between "/Sent Items" and "/All IJI Emails/月结后的要处理的文件"

Log file:
17/09/2025, 19:04:17 : Copying Emails Started - /&Zwh+01QOdoSJgVkEdAZ2hGWHTvY- to /All IJI Emails/月结后的要处理的文件 (skip subfolders=false)

Thanks for a great Thunderbird extension.
Can not find any repo or contact info so i write here...

In the log it only writes out the source and target folder names. Not in what account they live.
When doing migration of several accounts and running multiple copy activities simultaneously it would be useful to see the accounts too, to be able to pinpoint what operation the log refers to.
