In trying to install Thunderbird, Iinadvertently created a "special account". I subsequently finally found out how and did create my primary account. which I indicated as my default. But I still can't get rid of the special account -" remove" is grayed out.

What does this have to do with local folders?

Install your account on your pc and remove it from your husbands.
