The program works very slowly when e-mail archive is situated on network drive (100 MBit/s local network).
I choosed "storage on local network drive" in e-mail account settings. This network drive has 10Mb/s rate (100Mbit/s). The archive is stored in "mbox". During sending a message with size 10 MB or more, the program works very slowly or doesn't responding and fails. What can I do for fast program working (same fast as when the mail stores on my comp hard drive) ? Thank you in advance !

Slowness on a network drive is a known issue that is being worked on. But don't know when it will get fixed.

Perhaps the program will work faster if I use USB 2.0 Flash disk instead a network drive?
If the only purpose of using the external device is to provide a backup, you'd be much better off with the thunderbird data on your PC, and automate the backup of the data to the external device.

I do not want to make backup. I want to use flash memory for storage of all my mail. Will the program work same slowly in this case?
There are many many issues with network storage. Not the leas of which is network availability and saturation. It is all well and good to say you have 10Mb network connection. But that really is not the full story.
Windows has high overheads on the network it may also be using that same network to deliver high definition video from a steaming site. Another device on the same network may be downloading the anniversary Windows 10 update.
If you want to use a flash drive... place it in your PC box.... anything else is really a waste of a flash drive. A Sata3 drive should have a data throughput of some 600 MB/s. So investing good money in a flash drive and putting it on the end of a 10mb/s connection is simply a waste. a 15 year old pata drive has more than the 100mbps your network is delivering. However plug it into ya Sata3port on your computers motherboard and it will deliver blindingly fast data reads and writes.
USB 3.0 is technically capable of delivering over 400mb/s throughput. So is still not quite as fast the the native SATA3 connection.
