POP email configuration: use local folders
Hello, I am trying to configure a new POP email address for the first time in many years, and I just need a bit of assistance.
All of my previously configured email accounts share the same inbox etc under LOCAL FOLDERS and I want the new one to do the same.
I know how to configure the account to use LOCAL FOLDERS for sent items, drafts, etc via the COPIES & FOLDERS tab under Account Settings.
But what else do I need to do in order to tell Thunderbird that I want to use LOCAL FOLDERS for everything and not have the email account show up separately in the folders panel?
I can't remember what I had to do years ago when I set up my other accounts, and of course things may have changed.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
