Unified Inbox Not Displaying anything

Hi, I'm running Thunderbird on Linux Mint on a Thinkpad T470, I have two mail accounts, which are handled just fine.

I read somewhere about the unified inbox feature, so I clicked View>folders and ticked "unified folders". That gives me an inbox in the left pane, but when I click on it nothing is displayed on right side. I found out that you need to right-click that inbox, then go to properties and select the folders you want to be displayed. I did all that, still, when I click the unified inbox nothing happens at all, nothing is displayed, even though both mail accounts have mail in their respective inbox!

In the properties of the unified inbox, did you specifically select the account inboxes? If not, try unselecting everything else and selecting just the inboxes.

It should just work, could be a glitch, but then I don't think having to manually select the accounts you want to be included should be necessary either… Does the problem persist if you restart Thunderbird?
