Problem with local folder
I previously used Windows Live Mail and a configuration according to: "Windows Live Mail - Inboxes and Storage Folders",
that is, 2 inboxes and a storage folder, that's what I want.
But I did something wrong and got: "Thunderbird - my current view 1" which is not good and illogical.
I have tried to create a folder that is not subfolder of anything but has failed. Why?
Inbox "gunnar.lagerlof @ ..." is OK, see "Thunderbird - my current view 3", it's OK.
But inbox "gunnar @ ..." is the problem, see: "Thunderbird - My current view 2", and I can not change the logic so that it resembles to: "Thunderbird - My Current View 3".
Where is the fault. ??

I am completely guessing because I see 4 images. But guessing which is the only you are discussing is just about impossible.,
But letys just step back.
Thunderbird had a default account. The local Folders account. It acts as a mail account and can contain all of your POP mail accounts in a single global inbox.
In account settings under server settings > advanced there is an option to state you do not want to use another accounts inbox and hence the global inbox should you choose it. If both your accounts have this set to use their own inbox, then the next time you start Thunderbird you will have three accounts. Local folder and you two mail accounts. I really see no point in having three accounts, but if that is what you want do so.
The entire "local Folders" is a local storage folder area.
What you will have to accept is that Thunderbird is not windows mail and will never look like it exactly. Although all mail programs share a similar look because they deal with folders and mail they are not the same in how they do their implementations.
Thank you very much. Your information: "In account settings under server settings> Advanced there is an option", helped me well.
Now it looks much better, see attached picture no. 1.
Now I want to move from Local Folders "Inbox (9246), Drafts, Sent" to be under "gunnar @ ....". Will it work.?
