Have you started Thunderbird (for the profile to be created)?
If you did, that profile must be stored somewhere, which usually is
/home/username/.thunderbird/profilename.default.

By the way, you can always create it yourself. Mine's look like this:

skorzen at g62:~$ ls -l /home/skorzen/.thunderbird/
total 12
drwx------ 10 skorzen skorzen 4096 May  4 17:24 3ksvnvt3.default
drwx------  2 skorzen skorzen 4096 May  1 14:53 Crash Reports
