There is nothing different on the folders from Gmail. "YouTube and Twitch" folders that are very large in emails that Thunderbird may not like. This is from a Gmail account. Mozilla Thunderbird v68.3.1 (64-bit).

Hi Sandman192, Let's check if you are subscribed to all of your folders.

Right-click on the account name and select select Subscribe. Make sure that all of the folders you are looking for are subscribed to.

It's not in the "Subscribe" option either. I know when you add an email account to Thunderbird that it grabs all emails and folders by default.
