Last week my AOL Spam folder was flagged as a second Junk folder by Thunderbird. How do I return back to having just one Junk folder per account?

The spam folder on my aol account has always been simply treated as just a plain folder (no fire symbol, though AOL filtered what it thought were spam messages into that folder) and Thunderbird would then move the messages that truly were junk into the actual Junk folder (with the fire symbol). I liked to keep these two folders separate (I never made the spam folder into a Thunderbird recognized Junk folder) because a lot of the time good emails would be filtered into the spam folder by AOL. But now all of my junk is being moved into the spam folder and nothing is being moved into the Junk folder.

Is there a way for me to revert these settings back to the way they were? I have gone through both the global junk mail settings and the account settings to make sure the "Move new junk messages to:" is set to Junk, yet it doesn't seem to be working.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Tools|Add-ons|Get add-ons and type Folder Flags into the search box. It adds a "Flags" tab to each folder's Properties page.

Thinks to Matt for pointing out this useful add-on.

So this gave me a temporary fix, but every time Thunderbird restarts it flags the second folder as spam again... Any ideas for a more permanent fix?
