I have been using Thunderbird for well over a decade and LOVE it! I do not know when this occurred and how but I have two Sent folders, one is called 'Sent' and the other is called 'Sent Messages.' Actual sent messages go to the 'Sent' folder but as both are protected folders, I cannot delete the 'Sent Messages' folder and would very much like to. Can you please tell me how to accomplish this?

Thank you, Paul

Right-click the account, not the folder.

Right-click the account in the Folder Pane, Subscribe..., and deselect the unwanted folder.

'Subscribe' is not a selection that is available when I right-click on the 'Sent Messages' folder in the folder Pane. Plan B?
