Hello,

I have used Thunderbird for many years.

Currently, I am using version 102.12.0 (64 bit) and my OS is KDEneon 5.27



I have multiple email addresses (using IMAP or POP) which are filed under "Local Folders" ("Dossiers locaux" in french)

A) In the "Folders" view, I would like to be able to have one folder per email address.


B) And, similarly, I would like that for:

"Account Settings" -> [e-mail] -> "Copies & Folders" :

1)  "When sending messages, automatically:" -> "Place a copy in:" -> " "Sent" Folder on:"

2) -> "Message Archives" -> "Keep message archives in:" -> " "Archives" Folder on:"

3) -> "Drafts and Templates" -> "Keep draft message archives in:" -> " "Drafts" Folder on:"

4) -> "Drafts and Templates" -> "Keep message templates archives in:" -> " "Templates" Folder on:"

get a folder named after the email address, not in "Local Folders" as is currently the case.



I did see the following help articles:

[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/faq-changing-imap-pop|faq-changing-i...]

[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/switch-pop-imap-account|Switch-pop-i...]


But that's not what I want.

If I have an email address using the POP protocol, I want to keep it in POP, but having its own folder in the "Folders" view

In the same vein, if I have an email address using the IMAP protocol, I want to keep it in IMAP, but having its own folder in the "Folders" view.


Anyway, for my addresses using the POP protocol, I often have many more emails than my supplier agrees to store on his server.


In short, if you have a solution, it will be great.


Thank you in advance.

Good day to you all.
