[thelist] thunderbird question

[Damien COLA]

I've had norton antivirus automatically deleting an email or attachement
with a virus, and i couldn't retrieve any email from my inbox.
Does this means only one file hold all emails information and that the
rest is lost if norton deleted the file because of one virus in one mail
?

I mainly use outlook but have installed thunderbird and set up an
account to test.

Cheers,
