Do the folders have names with periods, commas, slashes or other non-standard characters?

I have done as instructions in resolution of: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1090554. After restart the folders and sub folders do disappear however after the next restart it all comes back.

Delete the folder's mbox file and .msf file from the Mail/<popaccountname> folder in the profile folder, plus any others that have a similar name. Also, delete panacea.dat from the profile folder.
