It was barely noticable, but SERVER NAME in Server Settings was the same for both accounts. These were Yahoo IMAP accounts. Each account had its own folder in Users / ....... / ImapMail, but both accounts were pointing to one folder. Corrected this in the SERVER NAME field in Server Settings (see image)

"SHOULD" solve the issue .......... particulary it is THE ONLY item I can find that was not normal.

Cox just transferred all customers' email systems to Yahoo. After my e-mails were transferred to Yahoo, Yahoo tried to help me when I was getting error messages saying that log in to server smtp.mail.yahoo.com with my user name (my e-mail address) failed. The Yahoo rep told me that my problem is that "Whenever the generated app password from Yahoo is entered, sending emails works, but it only stays like that until the computer gets restarted. The app password is not saved." The rep told me that many Thunderbird users who had their email systems transferred to Yahoo are having the same problem. Has anyone had this problem and been able to resolve this problem? Thank you! Cyd

Somehow the System Draft folder is sitting in a subfolder on my account. I've tried everything to move it without any luck. I need to move it back where it belongs so I can delete the subfolder.

I tried following the instructions given by Toad-Hall on 9/20/22 but I don't even see the other system folders where they are supposed to be (inside the ImapMail folder).

I've tried uninstalling Thunderbird and reinstalling it, but that didn't help. I have no idea how this system folder got into a regular subfolder and it's driving me nuts!

Any suggestions on how to move this folder back where it belongs?

Thank you, cachadd
