I transferred my Mozilla Thunderbird email from an old computer (Windows 7 Premium) to a new one (Windows 10). The left-side column shows TWO folders each for "inbox", "sent", and "trash": One under my email address, the other under "Local folders". 

How do I get rid of one set?

BTW: The same appears on this site's front page!

Can you provide a screenshot so we can understand what's happening?

If you need help to create a screenshot, please see How do I create a screenshot of my problem?

Once you've done this, attach the saved screenshot file to your forum post by clicking the Browse... button below the Post your reply box. This will help us to visualize the problem.

I think you'll want to switch to the unified view, where all inbox/sent/trash folders are shown as one main folder, which you can expand to show the subfolders. Go to Menu -> View -Folders -> Unified Folders.
