I am using 68.4.2 on a Mac desktop. I have quite a few Profiles in the Finder>Go>Library> Thunderbird> Profiles .

The Problem I have is that a lot of my old emails and folders are under an account that I cannot find in Tools>Account Settings.

So under Inbox I have Inbox, and then 2 sub folders and I have to use the named account which is the only one under Account Settings to click on "Get Mail" .

It's the same with Trash, I have Trash and two sub foiders and things go to the named account sub foider.

So, I have one account that I can find, but all my self named folders are under my name (the account that I cannot find).

How can I get all of these folders/emails into one identity so that I just have Inbox and Trash without the sub-folders under them please?
