I have only one email account on Thunderbird, a second account forwards all it's received emails to my primary email account. I see in the folders list both 'Inbox' and 'All mail', plus several folders I have made and direct emails to with rules/filters. My question is: why do I need an 'All Mail' folder in addition to the Inbox and Sent folders? Is it necessary? What function does it perform in my case?

Thank you, however I don't have a Gmail account. My only account is Proton Mail.

Once you've determined it's importance, you can choose to unsubscribe from it in Thunderbird, so that it doesn't appear in the Folder Pane.
