[About .wdseml (Windows Desktop Search Email) files/messages:]
You can easily delete all of these messages, but of course
Thunderbird will regenerate them again as they come in. So what you
have to do is tell Thunderbird not to generate these files for
Windows anymore. You go into Thunderbird's options menu and turn it
off (Tools ? Options, then select Advanced ? General ? System
Integration ? Allow Windows search to search messages).

You can also delete them more easily by searching for and deleting
just the folders in which they reside, rather than the individual
files. These folders have an extension called *.MOZMSGS.
Interesting find. I don't remember looking at this option when I
previously trialed Thunderbird. Is this option enabled by default? If
so, a very bad choice my Mozilla.
No, the option is off by default.
