How do I customize the font and size for folder names?

Some of my folder names show up in bold and some don't. I'd like them all to be the same and can't figure out how to change the ones which are not bold. I can change the font and size and color when composing an email but can't seem to access "format" for the headings in my list of folders.

Thank you, Matt. I changed email programs so the bold folders were ones which were transported to Thunderbird. If I open the messages then the bold type for the folder reverts to regular type. If I want the folder headings all the same (regular) I have to go back and open every saved email, even though I've read them before the migration to the new program. Oh well. Cammie B. :)

right click the folder, select mark folder as read.
