I use Firefox and Thunderbird. I also use Sandboxie. Sandboxie is a great program to use with any app that you are going to connect to the Internet with. I will use Firefox sandboxed if I am going to be visiting unfamiliar sites or a site I have doubts about. I do this with all browsers I use though. Buttom line is that Sandboxie is excellent and works well with Firefox and Thunderbird.

How do you setup your e-mail client with Sandboxie so you don't lose your incoming e-mail and copies of your outgoing e-mail when Sandboxie is closed and the sandbox contents are deleted?
^There are some options in Sandboxie called Quick Recovery and Immediate Recovery where you can add whatever folder(s) said email client stores the files you want.
EDIT: Sandboxie's options has an expandable category called Applications which contains what you want. Disregard the first part.

Yes you can exclude the Thunderbird Inbox from being sandboxed using that option. What happens than is anything in your folders will be really there not sandboxed but when you open the the email it's opened in Thunderbird Sandboxed and you are protected from an infected email. When you close TB the sandbox is emptied and all the crap that was in the infected email with it but the email is still in your inbox because the inbox was not sandboxed.
