Thunderbird Unable to load gmail with 2 Million Emails in it.
I have an email with gmail which is containing over 2 million emails in it but when ever i login my account on thunderbird for a while it kept downloading emails but after waiting for 2 hours as i know downloading 2 million emails will take time at 100 MB/s connection suddenly thunderbird crashed. I tried to run it again and second time when i opened it it crashed after 2 minutes since after first crash thunderbird kept crashing. I tried to reinstall and that did not fixed the issue. Every time i reinstall thunderbird it works fine but after some time it crashed even emails downloading is also not completed yet.
Is there any possible solution?
I am using Windows Server 2016 with Latest Thunderbird version with 100MB/s connection. Email Provider is Gmail.

2 million emails.... Hardly what I would call a personal collection. However if it crashed there will have been a crash report submitted. See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/mozilla-crash-reporter-tb#w_viewing-crash-reports
What is the link to the crash reports? How large is the Gmail account? What size MB file is generated it you use gmails export your mail option?
Items to note.
1. A single folder with 2 millions entries may simply be to large. While Thunderbird has technically shed it's 4Gb folder limit, there are undoubtedly some bugs hidden away for those that pass the 4Gb limit.
2. Thunderbird is not tested on Microsoft Server software. It is a personal mail client and as such is tested on desktop operating systems.
3. Anti virus must be kept away from the mail store. exempting the entire Thunderbird mail profile is perhaps the best way?
