Hello, I use Thunderbird portable. I imported as Imap an existing account at Infomaniak.com but all the personal folders and subfolders were missing. No problem, just right-click on the account and choose "subscribe" ("s'abonner" in French), ticking all the proposed folders. So in IMAP it works, but if you set the account as Pop3, the "subscribe" function doesn't appear. I need Pop3 for an account to be imported into Thunderbird. How can I do this ?

Thanks for your help !

The subscribe function doesn't apply to POP, as the process downloads from the inbox. All other folders are on the PC. If you set up the account, the inbox will auto populate. But maybe I'm not understanding your intent.

Hi, Ok, I understand that with POP on Thunderbird, it's not possible to transfer folders other than Inbox from your e-mail address because you can't display the "subscribe" command and tick the other folders to import. So I'll stay with IMAP, which works just as well. Thanks for your contribution.
