I'm running Thunderbird 60.3 on Linux. I've been using it for years and become used to my Archives/Sent/Trash folders being nested under the Inbox. I like it this way.

I've just moved my domain to a new host, and now my Archives/Sent/Trash appear on the same level as the Inbox. Is there a way to move them under the Inbox instead?

Is this an IMAP account? Typically the folder arrangement is a function of the server, and not Thunderbird. Contact your email provider for help.

Yes it's IMAP (Dovecot/Maildir) on my VPS. My old VPS was running Courier rather than Dovecot so I suppose this must be the reason for the difference. Oh well. Thanks for the pointer anyway.
