Thunderbird allows multiple POP accounts to be merged under one header. Thunderbird seems NOT to allow multiple IMAP accounts to be merged under one header. I'm importing 4 gmail accounts via IMAP protocol. As asides:

  • MS Mail allows multiple IMAP accounts to be merged under one header.
  • I am a "refugee" from Outlook 2007 (system crash).

Any help will be appreciated, even if it's "It can't be done." TIA
