My previous installation, all my email accounts shared the same folder structure ie Inbox, Sent, Deleted etc in LOCAL FOLDERS and my own directory storage setup also in LOCAL FOLDERS. Due to a complete hardware failure and subsequent reinstallation I cannot replicate this; I can set up the local folders as was as I maintained a backup, but each email address I set up now has its own set of Inbox, Sent, Deleted etc. I can set up a rather complex set of message filters but this was not previously required. Any ideas??

  • then do same for the other pop mail accounts that needt o use same Inbox
  • Click on OK to close and save settings.
  • Now Close Thunderbird - this is important

wait a few moments for background processes to complete.

Open Thunderbird It should restart in online mode, If it doesn't, clickon the two black screen icon to swap to online mode.

The pop mail accounts should disappear from the Folder Pane and now only show the Local Folders. All emails will be downloaded to Local Folders Inbox.
