I have Thunderbird to access my BTInternet mail provider on my Windows 10 PC. I access my emails via the internet using BT Yahoo. My BT Yahoo mail app only partially replicates the folder structure which I have successfully set up under Thunderbird.

How do I ensure that emails in folders in Thunderbird are fully replicated in Yahoo and therefore are able toact as relaible backups?

Dealings wiht BT this morning has proved that the BT web mail service is operating properly.

Do I need to modify my Thunderbird settings t ensure all folders and their contents are visible through BT Yahoo?

Hi

Thanks for your note.

My BTINternet email account is an IMAP account

I still only have partially replicated folder structures from Thunderbird on it
