Installed Thunderbird on a computer at a vacation house for use 3 months out of the year. Is it possible for this and my home computer to "mirror" each other. So, any activity on the vacation computer, moving messages, deleting, etc., would also happen on my home computer? Thanks

if you set up your accounts as IMAP that is exactly what happens by default, each synchronizes changes back to the mail server.

It also means if you have a smart phone or tablet you can add your email there as well and have the same benefits.
