Mail quota showing wrong value
I seem to have found a problem with the display of the mail quota in Thunderbird. I have a number of accounts which display properly simply because the account is only used for mail but I have one account where I also have a web page. Trouble is Thunderbird defaults to displaying the 'Account/STORAGE' which also includes the space taken by the web pages so is totally wrong for the mail quota. Clicking on the quota display brings up a window which also displays the 'Mailbox/STORAGE' which 'is' correct. Is there some way to to default the display to the 'Mailbox/STORAGE' rather than the 'Account/STORAGE'? I haven't managed to find anything in FAQ's or looking in the config editor. Thanks in advance.
PS, If this is a bug, it'd be nice to have an option to choose between the 2 storage's.

Thunderbird simply reports what the server tells it.
Yep, that is right but judging from the figures displayed when I click on the quota bar which then shows 'both' mail and account storage so obviously both figures are being supplied by the server but Thunderbird is displaying the account rather than mail quota. I can't seem to find a way to change that.
