After adding the email account, the email were downloaded normally. However, the folders originally created in the email account were absent. I want to ask if ThunderBird gets the function to download both email and folders, or should I just create a new one and add them one by one. Thanks.

Have you created your account as POP or IMAP account? With POP you won't see any folders other than Inbox. With IMAP you may need to subscribe to folders which exist on the server.
