Public bug reported:
I just had up grow the LV of my home directory by another 50GB.....
For the last 30 years I've collected roughly 9GB of old email.
Since the enforced migration from a properly working non-snap Thunderbird to a
snap-infested Thunderbird
a few months ago its storage has grown from 9GB to now 90GB.
Every now and again it seems to re-download ALL messages from all IMAP
accounts and grow by another 9GB
Right now the files have grwon to:
1021604 global-messages-db.sqlite
91956864 ImapMail
Within ImapMail there now seem to be <servername>-1.<topleveldomain>[.msf]
backupfiles.
Before the snapped version this behaviour did not exit.
Please fix.
