I was in the 'Sent' folder on Thunderbird and as I was moving the index finger across the page the lefthand column of folders suddenly disappeared, so how do I get it back? This is on my usual email address of rigby71@uwclub. It is now stuck on 'Sent' and I can't read any new messages because I can't go to 'Inbox'

OK so you drug the Folder Pane off the left edge. Drag it back. Make sure the Thunderbird window is maximized. Move your mouse cursor to the left edge of the window and watch for it to change to a double headed arrow. When it does left click, hold and drag to the right to uncover the Folder Pane.

Thank you. Problem solved. I should have known, or worked out, the answer to that one, but at 89 I suffer from 'senior moments'.
