Hello and goodevening, I am a artist. Have private emails for which I use Thunderbird. I have also a small studio, and I would like to use Thunderbird also for my studio. But not on the same page as my private emails. I prefer to open a new Thunderbird ( I do not know how to epress myself in this, because i am not a computerman) with a account for my studio. Is that possible? Hope you can provide me with a solution. Kind regards Nicholas

You can create a new profile and set-up your studio account in it.

Then always start Thunderbird with the -profilemanager option, and pick the desired profile. You can modify your existing desktop shortcut for Thunderbird accordingly.

Goodmorning and thank you for your help. (I see now that I wroteThunderball instead of Thunderbird. Sorry for that). I am very glad with your help.

Have a nice day. Nicholas France
