I would like to be able to find the size of folders - not just the size of files in folders. Is this info available in Thunderbird?
It would be helpful in managing my mail storage usage if I could see the size of my folders in the folder pane. Thunderbird provides the option of showing the size of individual files in each folder but I don't see this option for showing the folder size as a whole.
In a Support Forum "robertboyl" said he found a way to see folder sizes but did not indicate how he did this.
Thanks, Jack2840

View/Layout/Folder Pane Columns, then click the icon to display Unread, Total, Size (see picture). Press Alt if the Menu Bar with View is hidden.

Thanks. This solved the problem.
I wonder why this solution did not come up when I asked the question in the Help window?
This forum's search engine is practically useless, although the site contains much useful content. The best way to find it is to do a search on the site, e.g. when I entered
site:https://support.mozilla.org size of my folders in the folder pane
into the Google search box, the first result provided an answer that looks familiar.
