thanks for the reply. 😁
thunderbird is a pop account. so far i have managed to export the contacts from thunderbird to gmail. seems to be mostly ok. none of the email folders within thunderbird have been migrated.

The old email folders within Thunderbird are stored on your hard drive. There should be no way that Telus could access them. All I did was rename the old main account to Old EMail or something like that, and just left them intact. The new Gmail was put into a new account in Thunderbird. If you want you can copy or cut old folders and paste them into your new Gmail account folders. I have not done that, and just left then as is.
