Is there any way for Thunderbird to display ALL new e-mail from all addresses on one screen, as Windows Live Mial used to?

I have ten e-mail addresses installed in Thunderbird, on a computer I use for business, and although numbers shown by each e-mail address shows where new e-mail is available by address, there appears to be no way to have all the new e-mail from all accounts to display on one screen, which Windows Live Mail (and Outlook Express before it) allowed, and which would be extremely helpful to me in my business. Am I missing something? Is there a way to do this with Thunderbird?

Try: 'Menu icon' > 'Folders' > 'Unified' to see a Unified Inbox. To see only 'unread' mail: On 'Quick Filter Bar' select 'Show only unread messages' icon which looks like a pair of sunglasses. To deselect click on same icon again.
