thunderbird: Use a specific user profile.
$ thunderbird -P ${profile_name}
try on your machine
The command "thunderbird -P ${profile_name}" is used to open the Thunderbird email client with a specific user profile.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "thunderbird": This is the executable file name for the Thunderbird email client.
- "-P": This is a command-line option that specifies that Thunderbird should be opened with a specific profile.
- "${profile_name}": This is a placeholder indicating the name of the profile that you want to open. You need to replace "${profile_name}" with the actual name of the Thunderbird profile you want to use. For example, if you have a profile named "default", you would replace "${profile_name}" with "default".
By running this command, the Thunderbird email client will open with the specified profile, allowing you to access the associated email accounts, settings, and other profile-specific data.
