Spam folder missing

more options

Hi, I don't have a spam folder among "all folders" in my Thunderbird mail program. (Perhaps I deleted it by misstake, but unlikely). I have tried to uninstall the program and install it again, but then all mail and contacts reappear, and still no spam folder. Would be good to have one, to check if some mail gone wrong.

Your screenshot is too small to make out anything! Right-click the account > Subscribe. See if the folder is listed and subscribed to.

Hi Stan, thanks for responding. I attach a screenshot. There is no spam folder - in swedish: "Skräppost". On my old computer the Thunderbird had that folder by the trash can, I think. Have a good day!
