When I download emails from frontier account, thunderbird downloads the inbox and the spam folders. On other email accounts, I can adjust it so it only downloads the inbox. How do I set it up so thunderbird does not download the spam folder on frontier, frontier seems to be no help.

Unsubscribe it, to start with. Right-click the account, select "Subscribe", de-select the Spam folder.

But you never get false positives in your spam folder? Gmail are constantly putting good messages into mine.
