Thunderbird is one of the powerful email client with loads of addons and open source support i am using this addon from the beginning of 2006 and it is one of my favorite though at the beginning i was configuring gmail account with it now i am using it has official email client in office and with my website feedback email account at home.
since both at office and home i will be getting few confidential mails and i have configured email as imap any one who can access or login to my computer can easily read my private mails recently when i wanted to password protect my thundebird and googled in hope to find some addon i was suprised to see there was no such addon in mozilla addons portal that has the ability to lock email account or folders and prevent or restrict unauthorized access
though i was using a addon called DiddlyDo in thunderbird which was supported upto ver 1.5 prior to version 2* the author of the addon DiddlyDo stopped workin on the development and i could now find any replacement for DiddlyDo addon which was actually protecting my emails locally before.
if any TB addon developer or Thunderbird developers reading this please try to implement this security feature i think it would be a great feature and very helpful for people whose daily jobs involve handling confidential mails and private emails

Try this addon:
https://addons.mozilla.org/cs/thunderbird/addon/startupmaster/
yes the only addon that does that is starupmaster....it works with all TB version up until today V14.01 !
there is also a recent addon master password+ that has more options but is not too friendly to use....
