My four mail account folders have disappeared from the Thunderbird main page when opening it.

Some way I was moving my mouse cursor around and cause the column with my E-mail accounts with their sub folders to disappear. How can I get them to show back up?

That whole column is gone now and the tab at the top only shows my main account. but the messages for that specific account in box is illustrated.

From the menu bar select View-Layout and make sure Folder Pane is checked.

No menu bar? Press the alt key.

If folder pane is checked and not showing move your mouse to the left side of the screen 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.
